Four-State Model for Three-Branch Molecule＇s Two-Photon Absorption Properties

We present a four-state model for calculating the two-photon absorption of multi-branched molecules by using the time-depended function method, The numerical results indicate that the two-photon absorption cross section has a strong enhancement for three-branch molecules compared to two-branch structures, The maximal two-photon-absorption cross section is 2.358 × 10^-47 cm^4s/photon, At the same time, the charge-transfer process for the charge-transfer states is visualized in order to explain mechanism about the maximal TPA cross section.     

A 200 W diode-side-pumped CW 2 μm Tm:YAG laser with water cooling at 8°C

A water-cooled 785 nm diode-side-pumped high-power CW Tm:YAG laser system at 2 μm is reported. 200 W output power is achieved with cooling water running at 8°C. As far as we know, this is the highest output power for a diode-pumped all solid-state 2 μm Tm:YAG laser. The output corresponds to optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of 11.2%, with a slope efficiency of about 22.8%. To make the system structure simple, only deionized water is used as the coolant instead of alcohol- or glycol-water mixture or the liquid nitrogen in the reported high-power Tm rod laser experiments, which were performed at low temperature near the freezing point of water, or even below.     

Exact solutions for a type of electron pairing model with spin-orbit interactions and Zeeman coupling

A type of electron pairing model with spin-orbit interactions or Zeeman coupling is solved exactly in the framework of the Richardson ansatz. Based on the exact solutions for the case with spin-orbit interactions, it is shown rigorously that the pairing symmetry is of the p + ip wave and the ground state possesses time-reversal symmetry, regardless of the strength of the pairing interaction. Intriguingly, how Majorana fermions can emerge in the system is also elaborated. Exact results are illustrated for two systems, respectively, with spin-orbit interactions and Zeeman coupling.     

The ionic conductivity of Li6BaLa2M2O12 with coexisting Nb and Ta on the M sites

In a view to balancing cost and lithium ion conductivity, Li₆BaLa₂Nb _x Ta_2???x O₁₂ (x?=?0–2) was prepared by solid-state reaction, and its corresponding AC impedances were tested at temperatures ranging from 20 to 250 °C in air. Li₆BaLa₂Ta₂O₁₂ exhibits the highest conductivity, 8.77?×?10^?6?S/cm, and the second highest is Li₆BaLa₂Nb₂O₁₂ with 6.69?×?10^?6?S/cm. Partial replacement of Ta with Nb cannot bestow the advantages of cost saving or the enhancement of lithium ion conductivity. X-ray diffraction patterns revealed a gradual change as an increasing amount of Nb replaces Ta in Li₆BaLa₂Nb _x Ta_2???x O₁₂ (x?=?0–2), and it is thought that the trending of Nb and Ta to rest on the crystallographic planes is different.     

Differentiation of central gland prostate cancer from benign prostatic hyperplasia using monoexponential and biexponential diffusion-weighted imaging

PurposeTo investigate biexponential apparent diffusion parameters of prostate central gland (CG) cancer, stromal hyperplasia (SH), and glandular hyperplasia (GH) and compare with monoexponential apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value for discriminating prostate cancer from benign hyperplasia.Materials and MethodsTwenty-one CG cancer foci, 23 SH and 26 GH nodules in the CG were analyzed in 39 patients (19 with CG cancer, 20 with peripheral zone cancer but no CG cancer) who underwent preoperative conventional DWI (b-value 0, 1000 s/mm²) and a 10 b-value (range 0 to 3000 s/mm²) DWI. All of the cancer and hyperplastic foci on MR images were localized on the basis of histopathologic correlation. The ADC value of the monoexponential DWI, and the fast apparent diffusion coefficient (ADCf), slow apparent diffusion coefficient (ADCs) value and the fraction of ADCf (f) of the biexponential DWI were calculated for all of the lesions. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed for the differentiation of CG cancer from SH and GH.ResultsThe ADC values (× 10^? 3 mm²/s) were 0.87 ± 0.11, 1.06 ± 0.15, and 1.61 ± 0.27 in CG cancer, SH and GH foci, respectively, and differed significantly, yielding areas under the ROC curve (AUCs) of 1.00 and 0.80 for the differentiation of carcinoma from GH and SH, respectively. The ADCf (× 10^? 3 mm²/s), ADCs (× 10^? 3 mm²/s) and f for cancer were 1.92 ± 0.38, 0.53 ± 0.17, and 47.7 ± 6.1%, respectively, which were lower than the same values for GH (3.43 ± 0.65, 1.12 ± 0.21, 61.1 ± 8.7%) (all p < 0.01). The ADCf and ADCs for cancer were also lower than those for SH (3.11 ± 0.30, 0.79 ± 0.21) (all p < 0.01). The ADCf yielded AUCs (1.00, p > 0.01) that were comparable to those from ADC for the differentiation of cancer from GH, while ADCf yielded higher AUCs (0.92) compared with ADC (p < 0.01) for the differentiation of cancer from SH. ADCs and f revealed AUCs of 0.97 and 0.90, respectively, for the differentiation of cancer from GH, and the ADCs offered relatively lower AUCs (0.68) for differentiating cancer from SH.ConclusionBiexponential DWI could potentially improve the differentiation of prostate cancer in CG, and the ADCf of the biexponential model offers better accuracy than ADC.     

Approximate time-optimal control of quantum ensembles based on sampling and learning

For a general quantum ensemble with Hamiltonian fluctuations, this paper proposes a sampling-based two-stage approximate time-optimal control algorithm with momentum terms and achieves a high-fidelity state transition of all member systems to a common target state within an approximate minimum time. The fidelity and the control time are respectively optimized in the two stages. In particular, the introduction of momentum terms greatly improves the convergence rate of the algorithm. Simulation experiments on a two-level quantum ensemble verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.     

InAs/GaAs submonolayer quantum-dot superluminescent diodes with active multimode interferometer configuration

With a chirped InAs/GaAs SML-QD (quantum dot) structure serving as the active region, the superluminescent diodes emitting at wavelength of around 970nm are fabricated. By using an active multimode interferometer configuration, these devices exhibit high continue-wave output powers from the narrow ridge waveguides. At continue-wave injection current of 800mA, an output power of 18.5mW, and the single Gaussian-like emission spectrum centered at 972nm with a full width at half maximum of 18nm are obtained.

Fabrication and optical properties of platinum nanowire arrays on anodic aluminium oxide templates

Arrays of Pt nanowires, fabricated by electrodepositing Pt metal into nanoporous anodic aluminium oxide (AAO) templates, exhibit a preferable optical absorption band in the ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) spectra and present a blueshift as the wire aspect ratio increases or its radius decreases. This type of optical property of Pt nanowire/porous alumina composites has been theoretically explored using Maxwell－Garnett (MG) effective medium theory. The MG theory, however, is only applicable to nanowires with an infinitesimally small radius relative to the wavelength of an incident light. The nanowire radius is controlled by the pore radius of the host alumina, which depends on anodizing conditions such as the selected electrolyte, anodizing time, temperature and voltage. The nanowire aspect ratios depend on the amount of Pt deposited into the nanopores of AAO films. The optical absorption properties of the arrays of Pt nanowires with diameters of 24, 55 and 90 nm have been investigated by the UV-VIS spectra, which show that the extinction maximum (λ_max) shifts to shorter wavelength side as the wire aspect ratio increases or its radius decreases. The results are qualitatively consistent with those calculated based on the MG theory.
