Extreme outages caused by polarization mode dispersion

We study the dependence on fiber birefringence of the bit-error rate (BER) caused by amplifier noise in a linear optical fiber telecommunication system. We show that the probability-distribution function of the BER obtained by averaging over many realizations of birefringent disorder has an extended tail that corresponds to anomalously large values of BER. We specifically discuss the dependence of the tail on such details of pulse detection at the fiber output as setting the clock and filtering procedures.     

Spatial Carrier Bi-frequency Fourier Transform Profilometry for the 3-D Shape Measurement of Object with Discontinuous Height Steps

1 IntroductionProjecting a single frequency lfringe pattern upon an Object and observing itsdeformation from a different view angle has been a common method for various threedimensional shape measurement techniques. An autpmatic analysis of the fringepatterns is normally carried out either by the FOurier transform method[IJ or by phasestepping['] of the fringe patterns. HOWever, these techniques have a disadvantage ofprincipal importance, the so-called indetedrinaCy tO a factor Of Zap, or …     

Crystal Structure and Thermodynamic Study of Ephedrine Hydrochloride C10H16NOCI（s）

The crystal structure of ephedrine hydrochloride was determined by means of X-ray crystallography.The crystal system of the compound is monoclinic,and the space group is P21.Unit cell parameters are a=0.7308(6) nm,b=0.6124(5) nm,and c=1.2618(11) nm;α=90°,β=102°,and γ=90°;Z=2.Low-temperature heat capacities of the title compound were measured with an improved precision automated adiabatic calorimeter over a temperature range from 77 K to 396 K.A polynomial equation of the heat capacities as a function of temperature in the temperature region was fitted by the least-squares.Based on the fitted polynomial equation,the smoothed heat capacities and thermodynamic functions of the compound relative to the standard reference temperature 298.15 K were calculated and tabulated at the intervals of 5 K.     

梯度磁场中薄膜厚度梯度的形成机理

借助于基片下方放置的磁铁，在溅射的放电空间中引入了纵向的梯度磁场，辉光放电时，其外貌发生了显著的收缩，由此沉积的薄膜在平面内存在明显的厚度梯度，用磁场中带电粒子的运动理论解释了此种薄膜的形成机制。
