Pigment identification and decoration analysis of a 5th century Chinese lacquer painting screen: a micro‐Raman and FTIR study

To investigate the pigments and decoration applied to a wood‐based lacquer painting screen from the tomb of Si‐ma Jin‐long, Shanxi Province, central China, made by Chinese craftsmen in the 5th century, a combination of micro‐Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), wavelength dispersive X‐ray fluorescence (WDXRF), and microscopic examination was used. The obtained results are as follows: (1) the black, yellow, and red colors are identified as carbon black, orpiment and realgar, and cinnabar, respectively, by using micro‐Raman spectroscopy. The FTIR result shows that the white pigment filled in the leaves is not lead white, as assumed in the literature, but gypsum. Whether lead white was used at other locations remains unanswered and requires more samples for further work; (2) the thickness of each discernable pigment layer, as observed under the microscope, is approximately equal and the differences among them are small, suggesting a superfine painting skill; besides, a noticeable smooth interface between wood and the red grounding substance indicates that a polishing process might have been applied before the painting; (3) the red background was proved to contain cinnabar, but further FTIR analyses found no evidence for the presence of Chinese wood oil; and (4) the most interesting finding, rarely reported before, is that white grains of different sizes are found in both pigment layers and the grounding substance, which are perhaps an intentional addition. Further, in situ XRF and Raman analyses indicate that they are sourced from hydroxyapatite, coming probably from the intentional addition of animal bone ash to the lacquer. But how such a process could be finished and what purpose it served have not yet been answered. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Whole-field determination of isoclinic parameter by five-step color phase shifting and its error analysis

Combining color imaging with phase shifting, a technique named five-step color phase shifting is presented to determine the whole-field isoclinic parameter. Relevant theory is derived and explicit conditions for directly determining the isoclinic parameter in the range of [0,π/2] are given. The unloaded light intensity of the model is systematically studied. A color camera recorded five isoclinic images coupled with isochromatics from a plane polariscope with five different settings, respectively. Experiments have been carried out with a circular disk under diametral compression and errors have been analyzed and estimated. This technique utilizes white light, which avoids undefined isoclinics near the locations where the isochromatics exist and will have active effect on experimental stress analysis and structural strength design.     

径向双折射滤波器的超分辨性能研究

超分辨技术因其可以超越经典的衍射极限而为人们所熟知．并且．在光存储和共焦扫描成像系统中有着广泛的应用。把由两个偏振器和一个圆对称的双折射元件组成的径向双折射滤波器引入超分辨技术,借助琼斯算法推导出其光瞳函数的表达式。由分析得出通过改变径向双折射滤波器中偏振器的偏振方向和双折射元件的主轴之间的夹角,即可实现光学系统的横向超分辨或轴向超分辨。同时对评价该器件超分辨性能的参量第一零点比、斯特尔比和旁瓣强度抑制比做了详细的讨论。该滤波器用于超分辨技术的优点在于其制作不涉及相位的变化而比较简单,且费用比较低。缺点是旁瓣能量过高,但可以通过采用共焦系统来抑制。     

The overtone spectrum of C2D2 and C2H2 by ICLAS-VECSEL near 1 μm

The intracavity laser absorption spectra (ICLAS) of dideuteroacetylene, C₂D₂, and acetylene, C₂H₂, have been recorded between 1.03 and 0.99 μm with a vertical external cavity surface emitting laser (VECSEL) leading to the observation of seven and six bands, for C₂D₂ and C₂H₂ respectively, most of them newly reported. The strong ν₁+3ν₃ band of C₂D₂ at is found accompanied by the two Π-Π hot bands with v₄=1 and v₅=1 lower state and by the ν₂+3ν₃+2ν₄ band near . This last band results from an intensity transfer from the ν₁+3ν₃ band induced by the 1/244 anharmonic interaction. The ν₁+3ν₃ band of , present in natural abundance in the sample, could also be detected at in full agreement with local mode model predictions. The different bands of both C₂H₂ and C₂D₂ were found mostly unperturbed and the spectroscopic parameters retrieved from the rovibrational analyses agree satisfactorily with the predictions of the respective effective Hamiltonian models.     

A sensitive method of determining optic axis azimuth based on laser feedback

A sensitive method to determine the optic axis azimuth of the birefringence element is presented, which is based on laser feedback. The phase difference between the two intensities in birefringence feedback changes with the angle between the optic axis of the birefringence element and laser original polarization. The phase difference is highly sensitive to the relative position of the optic axis and the laser original polarization. This method is used to highly precisely determine the optic axis azimuth, and is able to distinguish between the fast axis and the slow axis of the birefringence element. Theoretical analysis and experimental results are both demonstrated.

激光在PERC晶硅电池中背面点接触电极制备中的应用

在经过Al2O3全钝化发射极钝化局部背接触(PERC)结构电池的背面实现良好的接触电极一直是制约着PERC高效电池向产业化推广的重要因素之一。本文采用532 nm激光烧蚀背面钝化介质层方法和传统的光刻工艺来实现背面电极的局部接触,并对两种方法进行详细的比较与分析。对激光烧蚀和激光烧结两种不同的局部接触电极制备方式进行了对比,发现激光烧蚀是更为适宜的工艺方式。相较于激光烧结,以激光烧蚀方式制备的电池的串联面接触电阻从10.7Ω.cm2降到1.24Ω.cm2,效率从4.2%提高到10.7%。
