欠采样包裹相位图的展开算法

利用四种常见算法对由球面参考光像面数字全息显微术得到的中药饮片海金沙细胞的包裹相位图进行了相位解包裹。结果表明：基于离散余弦的最小二乘算法和预条件共轭梯度算法会使欠采样区域的误差进行传递,使得解包裹相位产生较大误差;质量图导向路径跟踪算法由于未识别残差点,导致出现拉线或者孤岛区域,而且处理速度很慢;基于横向剪切干涉的最小二乘算法处理欠采样包裹相位图的效果最好,而且处理速度较快。     

Magnetocaloric effect in (La0.47Gd0.2)Sr0.33MnO3 polycrystalline nanoparticles

In this paper, nanosized particles of (La_0.47Gd_0.2)Sr_0.33MnO₃ perovskite-type oxides were successfully synthesized at a relatively low calcinated temperature at 800 °C for 10 h using amorphous molecular alloy as precursor. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron diffraction (ED) revealed that the resulting product is of pure single-phase rhombohedral structure. The Curie temperature T_C and magnetic entropy change (MCE) in (La_0.47Gd_0.2)Sr_0.33MnO₃ polycrystalline nanoparticles are determined and compared to those of similar systems prepared by the conventional solid-state reaction method. The Curie temperature T_C is shifted to 298 k, and a relatively large MCE with a broad peak around Curie temperature is observed in (La_0.47Gd_0.2)Sr_0.33MnO₃ polycrystalline particles. These results suggested that this material is a suitable candidate as working substance in magnetic refrigeration near room temperature.     

Solvent‐dependent structural dynamics of 2(1H)‐pyridinone in light absorbing S4(ππ*) state

The B‐band resonance Raman spectra of 2(1H)‐pyridinone (NHP) in water and acetonitrile were obtained, and their intensity patterns were found to be significantly different. To explore the underlying excited state tautomeric reaction mechanisms of NHP in water and acetonitrile, the vibrational analysis was carried out for NHP, 2(1D)‐pyridinone (NDP), NHP–(H₂O)_n (n = 1, 2) clusters, and NDP–(D₂O)_n (n = 1, 2) clusters on the basis of the FT‐Raman experiments, the B3LYP/6‐311++G(d,p) computations using PCM solvent model, and the normal mode analysis. Good agreements between experimental and theoretically predicted frequencies and intensities in different surrounding environments enabled reliable assignments of Raman bands in both the FT‐Raman and the resonance Raman spectra. The results indicated that most of the B‐band resonance Raman spectra in H₂O was assignable to the fundamental, overtones, and combination bands of about ten vibration modes of ring‐type NHP–(H₂O)₂ cluster, while most of the B‐band resonance Raman spectra in CH₃CN was assigned to the fundamental, overtones, and combination bands of about eight vibration modes of linear‐type NHP–CH₃CN. The solvent effect of the excited state enol‐keto tautomeric reaction mechanisms was explored on the basis of the significant difference in the short‐time structural dynamics of NHP in H₂O and CH₃CN. The inter‐molecular and intra‐molecular ESPT reaction mechanisms were proposed respectively to explain the Franck–Condon region structural dynamics of NHP in H₂O and CH₃CN.Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Accurate calculation of reflectance spectra for thick one-dimensional inhomogeneous optical structures and media: stable propagation matrix method

Numerical instability is usually observed when the propagation matrix method is used to calculate the reflectance and transmittance spectra for the thick one-dimensional inhomogeneous optical structures and media. To remove this numerical instability we applied two procedures, the normalization and the singular-value decomposition, for the propagation matrix and the matrix involved in calculating the matrix of reflection coefficients, respectively. Examples of a cholesteric liquid crystal and a helical structure of ferroelectric liquid crystals with a twist defect show that the modified propagation matrix method is able to accurately calculate the reflectance spectra for thick structures.     

Judd--Ofelt analysis of spectra and experimental evaluation of laser performance of Tm3+ doped Lu2SiO5 crystal

This paper reports that the Tm^3＋：Lu2SiO5 （Tm：LSO） crystal is grown by Czochralski technique. The roomtemperature absorption spectra of Tm：LSO crystal are measured on a b-cut sample with 4 at.% thulium. According to the obtained Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters Ω2=9.3155×10^-20 cm^2, Ω4=8.4103×10^-20 cm^2, Ω6=1.5908×10^-20 cm^2, the fluorescence lifetime is calculated to be 2.03 ms for ^3F4 → ^3H6 transition, and the integrated emission cross section is 5.81×10^-18 cm^2. Room-temperature laser action near 2μm under diode pumping is experimentally evaluated in Tm：LSO. An optical-optical conversion efficiency of 9.1% and a slope efficiency of 16.2% are obtained with continuouswave maximum output power of 0.67 W. The emission wavelengths of Tm：LSO laser are centred around 2.06μm with spectral bandwidth of -13.6 nm.

不同中心波长飞秒脉冲激发InAs表面辐射太赫兹波的机理研究

研究了p型(100)InAs在不同中心波长飞秒激发光(750—850nm)作用下的太赫兹(THz)波辐射特性.这种太赫兹辐射的光谱性质与光学Dember效应密切相关，飞秒脉冲激发下产生的载流子在InAs表面的Dember场内做加速运动，从而辐射出THz电磁波.实验结果表明：不同中心波长的激发光作用下，InAs表面产生的Dember电场、光生载流子浓度、谷间散射效应以及处于不同状态的载流子数目都发生了变化，因而激发出太赫兹波的功率、振幅、频谱分布和有效谱宽是不同的.这项研究将有利于THz时域光谱技术以及实验
