Stability performance of short cavity Er-doped fiber lasers

An experimental study of stability between two types of short-cavity laser configurations is carried out. The short-cavity lasers are comprised of one or two pairs of wavelength-matched FBGs, encompassing a short length of highly-doped Er-fiber, to create effectively single- or dual-wavelength fiber lasers. The laser performance in terms of the laser output power and laser stability in relation to the gain medium length was investigated experimentally, analyzed and reported in this letter.     

Fabrication and electrochemistry study of multi-thiol coronary molecule monolayers

Single-component monolayer of novel multi-thiol coronary molecule and two-component mixed monolayer composed of coronary molecule and n-alkanethiol on gold substrates are described. The assembly of monolayers is characterized by ellipsometry, infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscope. The electrochemical properties of the single- and two-component monolayers are evaluated by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy experiments. Coronary molecule with multi-thiol groups has the ability to form stable monolayer via the interaction of mercapto groups and Au surface. Electrochemical impedance measurements indicate that 89.9% of the gold surface is blocked by the coronary molecule, which is attributed to the special spatial structure of the coronary molecule. The uncovered site on gold surface in coronary molecule monolayer could be occupied by the second suitable molecule. The mixed monolayer prepared by stepwise assembly of coronary molecule and n-alkanethiol has complete compact packing and few defects.     

Preparation of functional composite grafted particles PDMAEMA/SiO2 and preliminarily study on functionality

Micron-sized silica gel particles were first surface-modified with coupling agent, γ-methacryloylpropyl trimethoxysilane (MPS), and the polymerizable double bonds were introduced onto the surfaces of silica gel particles, forming the modified particles MPS-SiO₂. Subsequently, N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) was graft-polymerized on the surfaces of particles MPS-SiO₂ in the manner of “grafting through”, resulting in the grafted particles PDMAEMA/SiO₂. The grafted particles PDMAEMA/SiO₂ were fully characterized with several means. The graft polymerization process of DMAEMA on particles MPS-SiO₂ was studied in detail, and the optimal reaction conditions were determined. Thereafter, the adsorption properties of the grafted particles PDMAEMA/SiO₂ for chromate anion and Cu²⁺ ion were preliminarily examined respectively. The experimental results indicate that the PDMAEMA grafting degree on PDMAEMA/SiO₂ particles is limited because an enwinding polymer layer as a kinetic barrier on the surfaces of silica gel particles will be formed during the graft polymerization, and blocks the graft polymerization. In order to enhance PDMAEMA grafting degree, reaction time and temperature, and the used amount of initiator as well as the monomer concentration should be effectively controlled. The preliminary adsorption tests show that the grafted particles PDMAEMA/SiO₂ are multi-functional. They possess very strong adsorption ability for CrO₄²⁻ anion by right of strong electrostatic interaction, and have also adsorption action towards heavy metal ion by dint of complexing action.     

CaWO4晶体中F型色心电子结构的研究

运用相对论的密度泛函离散变分法(DV-Xα)研究了CaWO₄晶体中F型色心的电子结构. 计算结果表明，F和F⁺心在禁带中引入了新的施主能级；分析了晶体内可能存在的光学跃迁模式，并通过过渡态的方法计算了F，F⁺心跃迁到导带底的能量分别为1.92eV和2.42eV. 因此，从理论上推断了F和F⁺心在CaWO₄晶体中可能引起650nm和515nm的吸收，由此说明CaWO₄晶体中650nm和515nm吸收带起源于晶体中的F和F⁺心. 关键词： 4晶体')" href="#">CaWO₄晶体 +心')" href="#">F和F⁺心 DV-Xα

Analytical modeling of loss characteristics of a polymer arrayed waveguide grating multiplexer

Theoretical analysis is performed for the loss characteristics of a polymer arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) multiplexer around the central wavelength of 1.55 μm with the wavelength spacing of 1.6 nm. The total loss of the device includes the diffraction loss in the input and output (I/O) slab waveguides, bent loss caused by the AWG and I/O channels, leakage loss resulted from the high refractive index substrate, and propagation loss due to the absorption and scattering of the materials of the device. The effects of some structural parameters on the loss characteristics are investigated and discussed. The computed results show that when we select the core thickness as 4 μm, core width as 6 μm, pitch of adjacent waveguides as 15.5 μm, diffraction order as 50, the number of the arrayed waveguides as 91, that of the I/O channels as 17, confined layer thickness between the core and the substrate as 10 μm, distance between the focal point and the origin as 5500 μm, and central angle between the central waveguide and the x-axis (i.e. the vertical of the symmetrical line of the device) as 60°, the total loss of the device can be dropped to the range 3.79–7.93 dB.

利用液芯光纤技术研究了不同浓度的β-Carotene的CS2溶液的吸收与荧光的特性对CS2的一、二阶Stokes谱线阈值的影响.实验发现随溶液浓度(10-8-10-6 mol/L)增加,CS2的一阶Stokes谱线的激发阈值相对变高;并且与纯CCS2芯液的受激拉曼散射相比较,在低抽运能量激发下,就观察到CS2的二阶Stokes谱线.这主要是由于在CS2的受激拉曼谱线产生的过程中,β-Carotene的CS2溶液的吸收和荧光共同影响了CS2的一、二阶Stokes谱线的阈值.我们进行了理论上的拟合与分析,其结果与实验符合很好.     

Study on the recovery of NBTI of ultra-deep sub-micro MOSFETs

Taking the actual operating condition of complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) circuit into account, conventional direct current (DC) stress study on negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) neglects the detrapping of oxide positive charges and the recovery of interface states under the `low' state of p-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) inverter operation. In this paper we have studied the degradation and recovery of NBTI under alternating stress, and presented a possible recovery mechanism. The three stages of recovery mechanism under positive bias are fast recovery, slow recovery and recovery saturation.     

Multipartite entanglement in the interaction system between a single-mode microwave cavity field and superconducting charge qubits

This paper proposes a method of generating multipartite entanglement through using d.c. superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUID) inside a standing wave cavity. In this scheme, the d.c. SQUID works in the charge region. It is shown that, a large number of important multipartite entangled states can be generated by a controllable interaction between a cavity field and qubits. It is even possible to produce entangled states involving different cavity modes based on the measurement of charge qubits states. After such superpositions states are created, the interaction can be switched off by the classical magnetic field through the SQUID, and there is no information transfer between the cavity field and the charge qubits.     

The freeze of intrapulse Raman scattering effect of ultrashort solitons in optical fiber

The effect of intrapulse Raman scattering (IRS) for the propagation of the femtosecond solitons in an optical fiber is investigated. To factually simulate its influence, a combination of 27 Lorentian lines to fit experimental Raman gain profile is adopted. By using nonlinear Schrödinger equation and finite-difference time domain method, the propagations of femtosecond fundamental solitons in an optical fiber are numerically calculated. When the initial power is suitably enhanced, it is found that the pulse shape is almost the same as initial pulse and the delay Raman response only makes small pulse shift. In other words, when ultrashort soliton is considered, the IRS effect is similarly frozen under the enhanced initial power.
