Effects of pulse chirp on supercontinuum produced in dispersion decreasing fibre

The supercontinuum (SC) source plays a key role in wavelength division multiplexing over the optical time division multiplexing (WDM/OTDM) transmission system. The SC produced in dispersion decreasing fibre (DDF) is wider and flatter than that produced in dispersion shifted fibre (DSF). In this paper, a SC producing process in DDF is numerically simulated, the effects of pump pulse chirp on the SC width and flatness are initially studied and the corresponding theoretical explanations are given. Particularly, we have analysed and compared the evolutions of the SC along DDF pumped by different chirp pulses. Several valuable conclusions are obtained.     

Nanowire plasmonic waveguides,circuits and devices

As typical one‐dimensional nanostructures for waveguiding tightly confined optical fields beyond the diffraction limit, metal nanowires have been used as versatile nanoscale building blocks for functional plasmonic and photonic structures and devices. Metal nanowires, especially those fabricated by bottom‐up synthesis such as Ag and Au nanowires, usually exhibit excellent diameter uniformity and surface smoothness with diameters down to tens of nanometers, which offers great opportunities for plasmonic waveguiding of optical fields with deep‐subwavelength confinement, coherence maintenance and low scattering losses. Based on nanowire plasmonic waveguides, a variety of applications ranging from plasmonic couplers, interferometers, resonators to photon emitters have been reported in recent years. In this article, significant progresses in these nanowire plasmonic waveguides, circuits and devices are reviewed. Future outlook and challenges are also discussed.

片层硅酸盐用于热固性PU/PLS复合可能性探讨

高岭土(Kaolinite)和蒙脱土(Montromollite)等粘土,被广泛用作添加剂来改善聚合物的耐热性能。文章用各种先进技术对高岭土与蒙脱土的形态、组成和结构进行表征比较。电子透射电镜及电子探针(TEM/EDX)结果显示高岭土较蒙脱土有较大的粒径和较小的硅铝比,TEM还显示出这些粘土是由片层粒子堆积而成。热重分析(TGA)的结果表明蒙脱土由于失去吸附水从60 ℃升温至90 ℃失重明显(约7%),而高岭土在此温度下几乎不失水。高岭土脱除结构羟基官能团脱水失重的温度大约在510 ℃,低于蒙脱土的670 ℃。室温下光声傅里叶变换(PAS-FTIR)红外光谱显示蒙脱土在羟基吸收区有较强的吸附水的吸收,1 650 cm-1处孤立的弱吸收谱带可给予左证。变温红外和TGA的结果显示,片层硅酸盐表面的结构羟基从100～500 ℃非常稳定,它可以和异氰酸酯基团(NCO)封端的预聚物反应形成热固性PU/PLS复合聚合物。     

Skyrmions from instantons inside domain walls

Some years ago, Atiyah and Manton described a method to construct approximate Skyrmion solutions from Yang-Mills instantons. Here we present a dynamical realization of this construction using domain walls in a five-dimensional gauge theory. The non-Abelian gauge symmetry is broken in each vacuum but restored in the core of the domain wall, allowing instantons to nestle inside the wall. We show that the world volume dynamics of the wall is given by the Skyrme model, including the four-derivative term, and the instantons appear as domain wall Skyrmions.     

The effect of intragranular microstress in A1203-SiC nanocomposites

A theoretical model is established to investigate the intragranular particle residual stress in A1203-SiC nanocom-posites. Using this model, we calculate the average compressive stress on the A1203 grain boundary （GB） and the average tensile stress within A1203 grains caused by SiC nanoparticles. The normal compressive stress strengthens the GB, and the average tensile stress weakens the grains. The model gives a reasonable interpretation of the strength changes of A1203-SiC nanocomposites with the number of SiC particles.     

Effects of hydrogen annealing on the room temperature ferromagnetism and optical properties of Cr-doped ZnO nanoparticles

We explore the effects of hydrogen annealing on the room temperature ferromagnetism and optical properties of Cr-doped ZnO nanoparticles synthesized by the sol-gel method. X-ray diffraction and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy data show evidence that Cr has been incorporated into the wurtzite ZnO lattice as Cr²⁺ ions substituting for Zn²⁺ ions without any detectable secondary phase in as-synthesized Zn_0.97Cr_0.03O nanopowders. The room temperature magnetization measurements reveal a large enhancement of saturation magnetization M_s as well as an increase of coercivity of H₂-annealed Zn_0.97Cr_0.03O:H samples. It is found that the field-cooled magnetization curves as a function of temperature from 40 to 400 K can be well fitted by a combination of a standard Bloch spin-wave model and Curie–Weiss law. The values of the fitted parameters of the ferromagnetic exchange interaction constant a and the Curie constant C of H₂-annealed Zn_0.97Cr_0.03O:H nanoparticles are almost doubled upon H₂-annealing. Photoluminescence measurements show evidence that the shallow donor defect or/and defect complexes such as hydrogen occupying an oxygen vacancy H_o may play an important role in the origin of H₂-annealing induced enhancement of ferromagnetism in Cr-H codoped ZnO nanoparticles.
