Comparison of subwavelength focusing properties of diffraction and Fresnel zone plate plasmonic planar lenses

The subwavelength focusing properties of diffractive plasmonic planar lenses (DPLs) and Fresnel zone plate plasmonic planar lenses (FZPs) have been compared in this paper. To that end, we use the same lens material, incident wavelength, thickness and focal length for comparison. Both DPLs and FZPs consist of central circular slits surrounded by transparent and opaque zones and can get clear focusing performances. By using the rigorous electromagnetic numerical method, the fields in the focal region are analyzed in detail, and our results demonstrate that FZP can generate higher transmission efficiency, and higher peak field intensity at the focal plane. Focusing polarization properties of the lens illuminated by linearly polarized state, are calculated and analyzed also. The numerical results show that both the DPL and the FZP produce asymmetrical focal spot distributions with a low f-number. To the FZP, the full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) varies from 256 nm (along y-axis) to 516 nm(along x-axis) and to the DPL, the FWHM varies from 256 nm(along y-axis) to 580 nm(along x-axis), respectively. But for a high f-number, the asymmetrical performance of the focal spot will be reduced due to complicated electromagnetical field interferences and micro waveguide effect. Otherwise, the DPL can get a higher depolarization effect than the FZP does.     

Rare earth doped cobalt ferrite thin films deposited by PLD

CoFe₂O₄ thin films with preferential texture structure, small grain size, and perpendicular magnetic anisotropy can be obtained by the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. In this work, we studied the influence of the Fe³⁺ ions substitution by three elements from lanthanide group (Dy, La, and Gd) on the structural properties of the thin films. The samples were deposited by Nd:YAG laser (λ=532 nm, 10 ns) ablation of CoFe_1.8RE_0.2O₄, (RE=Dy, La, Gd) targets at various substrate temperatures ranging from room temperature to 600 °C. The microstructure and chemical composition of the thin films were investigated by Raman spectroscopy, XRD, SEM-EDS, and ToF-SIMS. The XRD patterns and Raman spectra of the thin films indicated the formation of a single spinel structure. Thus, the desired substitution of the iron ions in the spinel lattice with the RE elements was achieved in the thin films, although in the bulk material, their presence determined the formation of a residual phase with a perovskite-type structure.

本文通过分析不同几何配置下的偏振拉曼光谱对非线性光学晶体的晶格振动模式进行了研究. 首先根据因子群分析,将晶体的振动模按晶体对称群的不可约表示进行分类,其次测量了晶体在10–1600 cm^-1范围内,不同几何配置下的偏振拉曼光谱,并在此基础上指认了晶体的晶格振动模式. 300 cm^-1以下的振动峰,归结为晶体的外振动,来自[BiO₆],[ZnO₄],[BO₄]和[BO₃]原子基团的平动和转动;300cm^-1以上为晶体的内振动,主要与Bi-O,和Zn-O键振动有关. 晶体拉曼光谱中最高振动频率达到1407 cm^-1,被指认为[BO₃]三角形中B-O键的伸缩振动,体现了[BO₃]基团中高的电子非局域化程度. 关键词： 2ZnOB₂O₆单晶')" href="#">Bi₂ZnOB₂O₆单晶 偏振拉曼光谱 振动模式     

Photoionization thresholds and structures of third group metals clustered with ammonia

A photoionization study of the Me(NH₃) clusters formed in the reaction of photoablated third group metal vapor with gaseous ammonia is reported. The photoionization spectra exhibit some features due to vibrational excitation of ionic clusters and to transitions to neutral Rydberg states leading to autoionization. DFT quantum chemical calculations are performed on the Me(NH₃). The cluster geometries are fully optimized imposing the C_3v symmetry. The calculated values of the IPs are in agreement with those experimentally determined. Received: 16 February 1998 / Revised and Accepted: 7 May 1998     

Symmetry properties and renormalization group in the stable superfluid phase of bosons at zero temperature

The appearence of divergences in perturbation theory for a system in a stable phase requires the existence of an underlying symmetry and related Ward identities to remove exactly these singularities in the physical response functions. In this paper we consider explicitly the Ward identities associated with the (gauge) symmetry of the interacting neutral Bose gas at zero temperature to solve the old-standing problem of infrared divergencies due to Bose- Einstein condensation. The exact infrared behavior of the system is achieved for any dimension d > 1. For 1 < d ? 3 the system is controlled by a non trivial line of fixed point distant from the Bogoliubov solution, while above d = 3 the Bogoliubov fixed point is found to be stable.     

A Construction of Multiresolution Analysis on Interval

We present a concrete method of constructing multiresolution analysis on interval. The method generalizes the corresponding results of Cohen, Daubechies and Vial [Appl. Comput. Harmonic Anal., 1（1993）, 54-81]. By the use of the subdivision operator, the expressions of the constructed functions are more compact. Furthermore, the method reveals more clearly some properties of multiresolution analysis with certain approximation order.     

Development and characterisation of an XeCl excimer laser-generated soft-X-ray plasma source and its applications

Summary A large-aperture, long-pulse XeCl excimer laser has been used to generate a soft-X-ray plasma source. Several laser optical configurations have been employed to optimise X-ray emission, including positive-branch unstable resonators and injection by seeding the gain region of the laser with a small commercial excimer laser, resulting in power densities in the range 10¹²–10¹⁴ W cm⁻². The characteristics of the plasma source for each different laser configuration and for different target materials are investigated. The most suitable source conditions (spectral energy distribution, time duration, etc.) for specific applications are discussed. Supported by the Royal Society, UK. Supported by INFM, Italy.

Stability properties of an inverse parabolic problem with unknown boundaries

We treat the stability issue for an inverse problem arising from non-destructive evaluation by thermal imaging. We consider the determination of an unknown portion of the boundary of a thermic conducting body by overdetermined boundary data for a parabolic initial-boundary value problem. We obtain that when the unknown part of the boundary is a priori known to be smooth, the data are as regular as possible and all possible measurements are taken into account, the problem is exponentially ill-posed. Then, we prove that a single measurement with some a priori information on the unknown part of the boundary and minimal assumptions on the data, in particular on the thermal conductivity, is enough to have stable determination of the unknown boundary. Given the exponential ill-posedness, the stability estimate obtained is optimal. AMS 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary 35R30, Secondary 35B60, 33C90
