静电喷印技术在太赫兹超表面制备中的应用

近年来,太赫兹技术快速发展,基于超表面的太赫兹器件受到广泛关注,并已应用于太赫兹成像、光谱和生物传感等诸多领域。但太赫兹超表面器件的制备复杂且成本高,而静电喷印技术无需掩模版,成本低、精度高且易于在异形曲面上制作。基于静电喷印技术设计和制备了太赫兹吸波器,并利用太赫兹时域光谱系统（THz-TDS）对样品进行了性能测试,实验与仿真结果基本相符,在0.098~0.353 THz频段内吸收大于90%。此外,还设计了太赫兹线极化转换器,在0.167~0.355 THz频段内的极化转换大于95%,相对带宽约72%,并分析了所设计样品的制备工艺条件,验证了静电喷印技术对于制备太赫兹极化转换器的可行性。研究成果表明,静电喷印技术在太赫兹超表面器件的制备中具有广泛的应用前景。     

Comparison of Thin Films of Titanium Dioxide Deposited by Sputtering and Sol–Gel Methods for Waveguiding Applications

Semiconductors - In this work, TiO2 thin films were deposited onto glass substrate by two different techniques: sol–gel dip-coating (SG) and reactive DC magnetron sputtering (Sput). The...

High-efficiency continuous-wave diode-pumped Tm:Ho:LuAG laser at 2.1 μm

Continuous Wave (CW) laser action has been observed from a Ho:Tm:LuAG rod at 2.1 m pumped by a diode laser at 785 nm in the temperature range of 77–200 K. The maximum power observed was 1.38 W at an incident power of 4 W at a crystal temperature of 77 K. The optical-to-optical conversion efficiency was observed to be 35.6% at a threshold power of 0.2 W with a 95% output coupling mirror.     

Magnetic properties of amorphous Mn x B100−x alloys

Magnetic properties of amorphous Mn _x B_100–x alloys ranging fromx = 30 to 70 under high magnetic fields and low ac magnetic fields in the temperature range from 4.2 K to room temperature have been investigated. Samples which have Mn concentrations of aboutx = 40–60 show spin-glass-like properties in the low-temperature region. This spin-glass characteristics result from a frustration in the spin system which is caused by the competition of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interactions between randomly distributed Mn atoms. Both magnetization at 4.2 K and paramagnetic momentP _eff as a function of Mn concentration show a peak aroundx 44 which drops rapidly towards both sides of the Mn content.     

Determination of the chiral structure of [Formula: see text] using anomalous x-ray scattering near the Cs K absorption edge

A structural study of [Formula: see text], grown from aqueous solution, was performed using anomalous x-ray scattering near the Cs K absorption edge to determine an absolute configuration of constituent atoms. The sense of the helical structure of the [Formula: see text] chain was found to be predominantly right-handed through a comparison of observed Bragg Bijvoet ratios with calculated ones. Assuming that [Formula: see text] consists of the two domains (i.e. right- and left-handed helices), we estimate that the volume fraction for the right-handed helix is [Formula: see text].     

The BKK root count in

The root count developed by Bernshtein, Kushnirenko and Khovanskii only counts the number of isolated zeros of a polynomial system in the algebraic torus . In this paper, we modify this bound slightly so that it counts the number of isolated zeros in . Our bound is, apparently, significantly sharper than the recent root counts found by Rojas and in many cases easier to compute. As a consequence of our result, the Huber-Sturmfels homotopy for finding all the isolated zeros of a polynomial system in can be slightly modified to obtain all the isolated zeros in .

     

Turán's Pure Power Sum Problem

Let be complex numbers, and consider the power sums , . Put , where the minimum is over all possible complex numbers satisfying the above. Turán conjectured that , for some positive absolute constant. Atkinson proved this conjecture by showing . It is now known that , for . Determining whether or approaches some other limiting value as is still an open problem. Our calculations show that an upper bound for decreases for , suggesting that decreases to a limiting value less than as .
