Dielectrophoretic assembly of ZnO nanowires

The synthesis of zinc oxide （ZnO） nanowires is achieved by vapor phase transportation （VPT） method. The designed quartz tube, whose both ends are narrow and the middle is wider, is used to control the growth of ZnO nanowires. Dielectrophoresis （DEP） method is employed to align and manipulate ZnO nanowires which are ultrasonic dispersed and suspended in ethanol solution. Under the dielectrophoretic force, the nanowires are trapped on the pre-patterned electrodes, and further aligned along the electric field and bridge the electrode gap. The dependence of the alignment yield on the applied voltage and frequency is investigated.     

Chirality-asymmetry force between ɑ-quartz and copper block

The chirality-asymmetry macroscopic force mediated by light pseudoscalar particles between α -quartz and some achiral matter is studied. If this force between achiral source mass and α -quartz with some chirality is attractive, it will become repulsive when the chirality of the α -quartz crystal is changed. According to the tested limits of the coupling constant g_s g_p /\hbar c< 1.5× 10^-24 at the Compton wavelength λ = 10^-3 m, the force (F) between a 0.08× 0.08× 0.002 m³ block of α -quartz and a 0.08× 0.08× 0.01 m³ copper block with a separation being 0.5× 10^-3 \mbox{m} in between, is estimated from the published data at less than 4.64× 10^-24 N, i.e. F < 4.64× 10^-24 N.

Modulational instability of incoherently coupled beams in azobenzene-containing polymer with photoisomerization nonlinearity

The modulational instability of two incoherently coupled beams in azobenzene-containing polymer with photoisomerization nonlinearity is investigated analytically and numerically. Our results show that as a precursor to spatial optical soliton formation, modulational instability can be adjusted and controlled by the wavelength combinations of the signal and background beams. We also discuss the dependences of strength of modulational instability on intensities of two signal beams and background beam. These findings make it possible to predict the formation of incoherently coupled soliton pairs in azobenzene-containing polymer.     

频谱分割波分复用无源光网络及色散影响

频谱分割是使用窄带光滤波器选择宽带光源光谱的一个切片的WDM技术,在波分复用无源光网络(WDM-PON)中采用波分复用器((MUX)进行频谱分割,能够实现光网络单元(ONU)的无色化.模型分析表明由于频谱分割的作用,使得波分复用器光通带外的频谱成分被过滤,减小了宽带光源的色散影响.在20 nm CWDM标准信道间隔下,能够以不超过1 dB的光功率代价支持155 Mb/s信号在20 km的G.652常规光纤上传输;在0.8 nm DWDM信道间隔下则能够支持2.5 Gb/s信号传输,色散引起的光功率代价低于0.5 dB.采用中心波长为1550 nm、谱宽70 nm、输出功率为-10 dBm的LED,研制了125 Mb/s速率信号直接调制的无色ONU.在信道间隔为20 nm、光纤长度为20 km的4波长WDM-PON系统上进行测试,色散等因素引起的光功率代价小于1 dB,系统光功率余量则超过5.6 dB.     

基于非平衡光纤干涉仪的窄线宽激光光源跳模实时测试方法

窄线宽激光器随机发生的跳模现象,是影响光学系统稳定的重要因素.激光器线宽窄往往意味着较长的谐振腔和较小的模间隔,从而给跳模的监测带来了难度.本文提出一种基于非平衡光纤干涉仪的窄线宽光源跳模测试方法,该方法将激光器跳模的频率变化转变为干涉仪的相位变化,并通过相位产生载波(PGC)调制解调技术来检测相位信息,从而实现对跳模过程的监测.该方法灵敏度高,能够长时间连续监控,测试效果优于Fabry-Pérot干涉仪,还可在kHz量级上测量窄线宽激光器的线宽,为单纵模窄线宽激光器研究提供有效的测试手段.

Respiratory noise correction using phase information

Respiratory noise is a confounding factor in functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data analysis. A novel method called Respiratory noise Correction using Phase information is proposed to retrospectively correct for the respiratory noise in functional MRI (fMRI) time series. It is demonstrated that the respiratory movement and the phase of functional MRI images are highly correlated in time. The signal fluctuation due to respiratory movements can be effectively estimated from the phase variation and removed from the functional MRI time series using a Wiener filtering technique. In our experiments, this new method is compared with RETROICOR, which requires recording respiration signal simultaneously in an fMRI experiment. The two techniques show comparable performance with respect to the respiratory noise correction for fMRI time series. However, this technique is more advantageous because there is no need for monitoring the subjects’ respiration or changing functional MRI protocols. This technique is also potentially useful for correcting respiratory noise from abnormal breathing or when the respiration is not periodic.     

Runaway Electron Measurements in the EAST Tokamak

An experimental study of runaway electrons in the EAST tokamak has been performed by a recently developed multi‐channel hard x‐ray diagnostics based on NaI(TL) scintillator detectors. It is found that in the current quench phase, the inductive loop voltage plays an important role in the generation of runaway electrons. And the avalanche mechanism was the main mechanism for runaway electrons after the disruptions. The distribution and transportation of runaway electrons were also investigated by multi‐channel hard x‐ray diagnostics. It is also found that the intensity of runaway electrons emission in the core plasma was much higher than those in the downside of the cross‐section, while the emission intensity of runaway electrons in the core plasma was almost the same. Calculated shrinking coefficient of runaway electrons emission after the plasma disruption was about 26 m/s according to the experimental data (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
