Highly efficient single longitudinal mode-pulsed green laser

A novel design for a highly efficient 1-kHz single-frequency green laser is proposed.An efficient singlefrequency laser pulse output at 532-nm wavelength may be obtained by combining the injection seeding with intracavity frequency doubling in a compact U-shaped cavity formed by two plano dichroic mirrors in an end-pumping arrangement.The laser is capable of producing green pulses with a total energy of 6.3 mJ at a pulse repetition rate of 1 kHz.The pulse width is about 10 ns and the optical-optical efficiency from the 808-nm pump source to the 532-nm green output is around 12.7%.     

Quantum phase transitions of fermionic atoms in an anisotropic triangular optical lattice

The effect of anisotropy caused by a confining potential on the properties of fermionic cold atoms in a triangular optical lattice is systematically investigated by using the dynamical cluster approximation combined with the continuous time quantum Monte–Carlo algorithm.The quantum phase diagrams which reflect the temperature–interaction relation and the competition between the anisotropic parameter and the interaction are presented with full consideration of the anisotropy of the system.Our results show that the system undergoes a transition from Fermi liquid to Mott insulator when the repulsive interaction reaches a critical value.The Kondo effect also can be observed in this system and the pseudogap is suppressed at low temperatures due to the Kondo effect.A feasible experiment protocol to observe these phenomena in an anisotropic triangular optical lattice with cold atoms is proposed,in which the hopping terms are closely related to the lattice confining potential and the atomic interaction can be adjusted via the Feshbach resonance.     

Monte Carlo simulation for bremsstrahlung and photoneutron yields in high-energy x-ray radiography

This paper reports on the results of calculations using a Monte Carlo code (MCNP5) to study the properties of photons, electrons and photoneutrons obtained in the converted target and their transportations in x-ray radiography. A comparison between measurements and calculations for bremsstrahlung and photoneutrons is presented. The radiographic rule and the effect of the collimator on the image are studied with the experimental model. The results provide exact parameters for the optimal design of radiographic layout and shielding systems.     

非局域密度泛函理论表征活性炭孔径分布的改进算法

为提高由NLDFT计算值确定活性炭孔径分布(PSD)的精度,根据测得的77K氮在非石墨化碳黑BP460和椰壳活性炭K05上的吸附数据,比较了吸附空间及壁面结构采取不同假设对计算结果的影响。结果表明,常规将活性炭吸附空间近似为无限尺寸的石墨化碳黑表面构成的狭缝孔,并由Lorenz-Berthelot混合法则确定相互作用参数,计算值在较低压力区域和试验值之间的偏差明显;而将吸附壁面结构近似为非石墨化碳黑,并由表面粗糙度和石墨晶格分布的误差函数修正相互作用参数后,计算结果和试验值吻合良好。分析结果时发现,归一化方法和考虑周边吸附质分子作用的加权函数是影响NLDFT计算结果准确性的关键因素。

X-ray spectra induced by slow highly charged Ar q + ions in collision with Nb surface

The X-ray spectra of Nb surface induced by Ar ^q+ (q = 16,17) ions with the energy range from 10 to 20 keV/q were studied by the optical spectrum technology. The experimental results indicate that the multi-electron excitation occurred as a highly charged Ar¹⁶⁺ ion was neutralized below the metal surface. The K shell electron of Ar¹⁶⁺ was excited and then de-excited cascadly to emit K X-ray. The intensity of the X-ray emitted from K shell of the hollow Ar atom decreased with the increase of projectile kinetic energy. The intensity of the X-ray emitted from L shell of the target atom Nb increased with the increase of projectile kinetic energy. The X-ray yield of Ar¹⁷⁺ is three magnitude orders larger than that of Ar¹⁶⁺. Supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant Nos.10774149 and 10405025)     

Rheological Characterization of Poly(3,3′-Diaminodiphenylsulfone Terephthaloylchloride) Solutions in Dimethylsulfoxide

Steadyshear and oscillatory shear rheological measurements were performed to characterize the solution rheological behavior of poly(3,3′-diaminodiphenylsulfone terephthaloylchloride) (P(3,3′-DDS-TPC)) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The effects of temperature, concentration, and weight-average molar mass () on the rheological properties were investigated. From the temperature dependence of zero-shear viscosity, the flow activation energies, E_η, of P(3,3′-DDS-TPC)/DMSO solutions were calculated. Both the overlap concentration, C*, and the entanglement concentration, C_e, were determined from the concentration dependence of the specific viscosity η_sp. All the P(3,3′-DDS-TPC) solutions, we studied, can be separated into three regimes: the dilute, semidilute-unentangled, and entangled regime with slopes of 1, 1.3, and 3.9, of concentration versus η_sp plots, respectively, which are consistent with scaling predictions for flexible polymers in a good solvent.     

Zirconium-doped hybrid films patterned by soft lithography for distributed-feedback lasers

Zirconium (Zr)-doped hybrid films containing Rhodamine 6G (Rh6G) were prepared by spin-coating on glass substrates with different Zr–Si molar ratio. Second-order distributed-feedback (DFB) resonators with large surface-relief modulation depth over 160 nm could be fabricated by soft lithographic technique using a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) replica. Optically pumped by a pulsed frequency-doubled Q-switched Nd:YAG laser, the emission wavelength of the DFB-lasers can be tuned over 16 nm by changing the grating period. With the optimization of the Zr–Si molar ratio, low laser threshold of 3 μJ/mm² was obtained.     

Theoretical studies on the optical absorption coefficients and refractive index changes in parabolic quantum dots in the presence of electric and magnetic fields

The optical absorption coefficients and the changes in the refractive index in GaAs/AlGaAs parabolic quantum dots(QDs) with applied electric and magnetic fields are studied in detail. Analytical expressions for the linear and nonlinear intersubband absorption coefficients and refractive index changes are obtained by using a compact density matrix approach and an iterative procedure. Finally, the calculated results show the incident optical intensity, the frequencies of the confined potential of the QDs and the applied electric and magnetic fields have a great influence on the optical absorption coefficients and refractive index changes in this system.     

Centrally controlled quantum teleportation

Through designing a quantum communication network, we propose a protocol for the teleportation between multiple senders and multiple receivers via only one controller. In order to rationally employ the quantum entanglement resources, the controller shares the entangled state with every sender, while there is no directly shared entanglement link between sender and receiver. The security is analyzed in detail. Moreover, this protocol reduces the classical communication cost in the public channel by means of the coding.
