Tens of GHz Tantalum pentoxide‐based micro‐ring all‐optical modulator for Si photonics

A tantalum pentoxide‐based (Ta₂O₅‐based) micro‐ring all‐optical modulator was fabricated. The refractive index inside the micro‐ring cavity was modified using the Kerr effect by injecting a pumped pulse. The transmittance of the ring resonator was controlled to achieve all‐optical modulation at the wavelength of the injected probe. When 12 GHz pulses with a peak power of 1.2 W were coupled in the ring cavity, the transmission spectrum of the Ta₂O₅ resonator was red‐shifted by 0.04 nm because of the Kerr effect. The relationship between the modulation depth and gap of the Ta₂O₅ directional coupler is discussed. An optimized gap of 1100 nm was obtained, and a maximum buildup factor of 11.7 with 84% modulation depth was achieved. The nonlinear refractive index of Ta₂O₅ at 1.55 μm was estimated as 3.4 × 10^?14 cm²/W based on the Kerr effect, which is almost an order of magnitude higher than that of Si₃N₄. All results indicate that Ta₂O₅ has potential for use in nonlinear waveguide applications with modulation speeds as high as tens of GHz.

     

Uniform Drug Loading into Prefabricated Microparticles by Freeze‐Drying

Microparticle‐based drug delivery is a promising technology for small volume bioassay platforms. The general utilization of the drug‐loaded microparticles in the in vitro bioassay platforms requires the drug loading method, which should impregnate the general drug types (e.g., water insoluble) with high payload into the variously designed microparticles. Loading the drug into the prefabricated microparticles using solvent evaporation satisfies the requirement. However, similar to the “coffee‐ring effect,” drugs are loaded in a seriously nonuniform manner, caused by the capillary flow during the evaporation process. Here, it is presented that the freeze‐drying is an efficient way to load uniform and high amount of the drug into the prefabricated microparticles. It is demonstrated that freezing solvent can block the capillary flow during the solvent removal process, improving the loading uniformity. The delivered amount of drugs is linearly proportional to the initial loading amount of drugs. Also, this drug loading method is shown to be applied to the various drug types and the prefabricated microparticles with different properties. Considering many challenges to suppress the “coffee‐ring effect” that induces nonuniform impregnation/deposition, the proposed concept can be applied not only for microparticle‐based drug delivery but also for uniform coating applications (e.g., thin‐film coating, DNA/protein microarray).     

The coherent radiation fraction of low‐emittance synchrotrons

In this work the coherence properties of the synchrotron radiation beam from an X‐ray undulator in a fourth‐generation storage ring are analyzed. A slightly focused X‐ray beam is simulated using a wavefront propagation through a non‐redundant array of slits and the mutual coherence function is directly obtained and compared with the Gaussian–Schell approximation. The numerical wave propagation and the approximate analytical approaches are shown to agree qualitatively, and it is also shown that, when the coherent fraction is selected by a finite aperture before the focusing element, even achromatic focusing systems like total reflection mirrors become slightly chromatic. This effect is also well accounted for in the Gaussian–Schell model. The wavefront propagation simulation through the non‐redundant array was repeated with an imperfect mirror demonstrating that, although the wavefront is distorted, its coherent length is practically unchanged.     

Spin transport in a chain of polygonal quantum rings with Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling

Using a transfer matrix method, we investigate spin transport through a chain of polygonal rings with Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling(DSOC). The spin conductance is dependent on the number of sides in the polygons. When DSOC is considered in a chain which also has Rashba spin-orbit coupling(RSOC) of the same magnitude, the total conductance is the same as that for the same chain with no SOC. However, when the two types of SOC have different values, there results a unique anisotropic conductance.     

有限深抛物势量子环类氢杂质能级

在有效质量近似下,用微扰法研究InAs量子环内类氢杂质基态及低激发态的能级.受限势采用有限深抛物型势,在二维平面极坐标下,用薛定谔方程的解析解计算.数值结果显示:在抛物势平台区,类氢杂质能级不随电子径向坐标改变,并具有二维氢原子能级的特征;在有限深抛物势区,电子能级敏感地依赖于量子环半径,能级存在极小值,这是由于限制势采用抛物势的结果.如果减小环的半径,可以增加能级间距;简并能级发生分裂并且间距随半径增大而增大,第一激发态的简并没有消除,第二激发态的简并被部分地消除.本文结果对研究量子环的光跃迁及光谱结构有指导意义.     

Static and dynamic properties of grafted ring polymer: Molecular dynamics simulation

The static and dynamic properties of a system of end-grafted flexible ring polymer chains grafted to a flat substrate and exposed to a good solvent are studied by using a molecular dynamics method. The monomers are described by a coarse-grained bead-spring model. Varying the grafting density ρ and the degree of polymerization or chain length N, we obtain the density profiles of monomers, study the structural properties of the chain (radius of gyration, bond orientational parameters, etc.), and also present the dynamic characteristics such as chain energy and bond force. Compared with a linear polymer brush, the ring polymer brush exhibits different static and dynamic properties for moderate or short chain length, while it behaves like linear polymer brush in the regime of long chain length.     

Evolution of three-dimensional coherent structures in compressible axisymmetric jet

A high order difference scheme is used to simulate the spatially developing compressible axisymmetric jet. The results show that the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability appears first when the jet loses its stability, and then with development of jet the increase in nonlinear effects leads to the secondary instability and the formation of the streamwise vortices. The evolution of the three-dimensional coherent structure is presented. The computed results verify that in axisymmetric jet the secondary instability and formation of the streamwise vortices are the important physical mechanism of enhancing the flow mixing and transition occurring.
