All-Optical RZ-to-NRZ Format Conversion with a Tunable Fibre Based Delay Interferometer

All-optical format conversion from return-to-zero （RZ） to non-return-to-zero （NRZ） is demonstrated with temperaturecontrolled all-fibre delay interferometer （DI） at 20 Gb/s. The operation principle is theoretical analysed with the help of numerical simulation and spectra analysis. Theoretical analysis results are consistent well with the experimental results. The format conversion can be achieved with power penalty of 0.54 dB and with output extinction ratio 20 dB.     

Local Modulation of Double Electromagnetically Induced Transparency Spectrum

The double electromagnetically induced transparency induced by two coupling fields can be realized in a fourlevel tripod-type atom. Such double transparency spectra can be locally modulated by using the weak coherent fields to perturb the coupling transitions. These investigations within this scheme can be independent of Doppler broadening by properly orienting these fieds.     

Manipulation of Particles with Counter-Propagating Evanescent Waves

Two counter-propagating evanescent beams are used to align and manipulate polystyrene particles on a prism surface. Since the radiation pressure transferred laterally from the evanescent wave is negated on both sides, particles can be stably aligned. By projecting a circular and a linear beam spot onto the interface, both multiple and single arrays of particles are achieved. Arrays of particles trapped on the interface can be easily moved adjusting the intensity of incident beams on either side. We also simulate electromagnetic distribution of scattering light that is converted from the evanescent wave using the FDTD method. The results show that scattering light converts from an evanescent wave propagating through a particle array and has a distance longer than that propagating from a normal evanescent wave.     

Further Acceleration of MeV Electrons by a Relativistic Laser Pulse

With the development of photocathode rf electron gun, electrons with high-brightness and mono-energy can be obtained easily. By numerically solving the relativistic equations of motion of an electron generated from this facility in laser fields modelled by a circular polarized Gaussian laser pulse, we find the electron can obtain high energy gain from the laser pulse. The corresponding acceleration distance for this electron driven by the ascending part of the laser pulse is much longer than the Rayleigh length, and the light amplitude experienced on the electron is very weak when the laser pulse overtakes the electron. The electron is accelerated effectively and the deceleration can be neglected. For intensities around 10¹⁹ W•μm²/cm², an electron's energy gain near 0.1 GeV can be realized when its initial energy is 4.5 MeV, and the final velocity of the energetic electron is parallel with the propagation axis. The energy gain can be up to 1 GeV if the intensity is about 10²¹ W•μm²/cm². The final energy gain of the electron as a function of its initial conditions and the parameters of the laser beam has also been discussed.     

Interference of Two-Component Bose-Einstein Condensates with a Coupling Drive in Presence of Dissipation

The interference of the two-component Bose-Einstein condensates with a coupling drive in the presence of the dissipation is studied. We find that when the two-component Bose-Einstein condensates are initially in the coherent states, for the smaller dissipation parameters compared with that of the rf frequency ωrf, the interference intensity exhibits damply oscillation behavior, whereas when the dissipation parameters are larger than that of the ωrf, the interference intensity exhibits a fast attenuation behavior. As a comparison, the interference intensity in the absence of the dissipation is also studied. We conclude that the dissipation of the system can be evaluated by selecting the ωrf experimentally.     

Hard X-ray one dimensional nano-focusing at the SSRF using a WSi2 /Si multilayer Laue lens

The multilayer Laue lens (MLL) is a novel diffraction optics which can realize nanometer focusing of hard X-rays with high efficiency. In this paper, a 7.9 μm-thick MLL with the outmost layer thickness of 15 nm is designed based on dynamical diffraction theory. The MLL is fabricated by first depositing the depth-graded multilayer using direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering technology. Then, the multilayer sample is sliced, and both cross-sections are thinned and polished to a depth of 35-41 μm. The focusing property of the MLL is measured at the Shanghai Synchrotron Facility (SSRF). One-dimensional (1D) focusing resolutions of 205 nm and 221 nm are obtained at E=14 keV and 18 keV, respectively. It demonstrates that the fabricated MLL can focus hard X-rays into nanometer scale.

Hydrothermal synthesis of LiMnO2 microcubes for lithium ion battery application

Two kinds of LiMnO₂ microcubes were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal method using solid or hollow Mn₂O₃ microcubes as precursors. One was made up of nanoparticles varying in size and the other was made up of interlaced polygonal nanoplates with the thickness of 70 nm. Both kinds of LiMnO₂ microcubes were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Charge–discharge curves were carried out to investigate their electrochemical properties. LiMnO₂ microcubes with interlaced nanoplates showed much better capacities than the ones with nanoparticles indicating it is more suitable for application in the lithium ion batteries. The former material could deliver the capacities of 197 and 134 mAh/g at 0.1 and 1 C, respectively. And its capacity fading after 50 cycles did not exceed 7 %. The excellent electrochemical performance of the former material could be ascribed to the smaller size which could shorten the path length for lithium ion transport and increase the electrode and electrolyte contact.
