基于瑞利-索末菲积分的大衍射角衍射光学元件设计方法

针对现有的衍射光学元件设计方法只适用于小角度衍射的情况,本文提出了一种基于瑞利-索末菲衍射积分的设计方法,可以用来设计具有大衍射角的衍射光学元件。先对目标光场进行坐标变换和强度调整,再利用改进的Gerchberg-Saxton算法优化得到衍射光学元件的相位分布。分别采用本文方法和原有的基于夫琅禾费衍射积分的方法设计衍射光学元件实现线条结构光和不同角度方框图形的光场重构,结果表明:原有的设计方法只适用于衍射角全角小于25°的情况,当衍射角大于25°时,重构光场会出现显著的枕形畸变和不均匀的强度分布。而本文方法在小角度和大角度衍射下都能重构出准确的衍射角和较为均匀的强度分布.     

Mesoscopic and macroscopic dipole clusters: Structure and phase transitions

A two dimensional (2D) classical system of dipole particles confined by a quadratic potential is studied. This system can be used as a model for rare electrons in semiconductor structures near a metal electrode, indirect excitons in coupled quantum dots etc. For clusters of N ≤ 80 particles ground state configurations and appropriate eigenfrequencies and eigenvectors for the normal modes are found. Monte-Carlo and molecular dynamic methods are used to study the order-disorder transition (the “melting” of clusters). In mesoscopic clusters (N < 37) there is a hierarchy of transitions: at lower temperatures an intershell orientational disordering of pairs of shells takes place; at higher temperatures the intershell diffusion sets in and the shell structure disappears. In “macroscopic” clusters (N > 37) an orientational “melting” of only the outer shell is possible. The most stable clusters (having both maximal lowest nonzero eigenfrequencies and maximal temperatures of total melting) are those of completed crystal shells which are concentric groups of nodes of 2D hexagonal lattice with a number of nodes placed in the center of them. The picture of disordering in clusters is compared with that in an infinite 2D dipole system. The study of the radial diffusion constant, the structure factor, the local minima distribution and other quantities shows that the melting temperature is a nonmonotonic function of the number of particles in the system. The dynamical equilibrium between “solid-like” and “orientationally disordered” forms of clusters is considered.     

Swollen-collapsed transition in random hetero-polymers

A lattice model of a hetero-polymer with random hydrophilic-hydrophobic charges interacting with the solvent is introduced, whose continuum counterpart has been proposed by Garel, Leibler and Orland [#!GLO!#]. The transfer matrix technique is used to study various constrained annealed systems which approximate at various degrees of accuracy the original quenched model. For highly hydrophobic chains an ordinary -point transition is found from a high temperature swollen phase to a low temperature compact phase. Depending on the type of constrained averages, at very low temperatures a swollen phase or a coexistence between compact and swollen phases are found. The results are carefully compared with the corresponding ones obtained in the continuum limit, and various improvements in the original calculations are discussed.

Analytical Approach for Piecewise Linear Coupled Map Lattices

A simple construction is presented which generalizes piecewise linear one-dimensional Markov maps to an arbitrary number of dimensions. The corresponding coupled map lattice, known as a simplicial mapping in the mathematical literature, allows for an analytical investigation. In particular, the spin Hamiltonian which is generated by the symbolic dynamics is accessible. As an example, a formal relation between a globally coupled system and an Ising mean-field model is established. The phase transition in the limit of infinite system size is analyzed and analytical results are compared with numerical simulations.     

Two-dimensional measurement of laser-induced target movement by face-on interferometry

Initial movement of laser irradiated foil targets has been measured by face-on interferometry with two-dimensional resolution. This interferometric method provides direct and precise information about the initial movement of the rear surface of the target compared with conventional diagnostics. Target movement of 20–500 nm from the original position has been observed.     

Excitation of stable transverse wavepackets with quadratic and cubic susceptibilities

We have identified a family of (2+1)D spatial solitary waves which can stably propagate in bulk media in the presence of coexisting diffraction, self-focusing Kerr and quadratic nonlinearities. In a conspicuous range of excitation conditions close to the stationary solutions, the emerging wavepackets are immune to the detrimental occurrence of filamentation and collapse, typical of pure Kerr media. The presence of a second-order contribution to the cubic nonlinear response is, therefore, able to prevent optical damage in applications relying on self-guidance. We show that the cross-phase modulation plays an important effect on stability. Our estimate shows that the effects of the cubic susceptibility cannot be neglected below a certain beam size in realistic crystals (e.g. KTP or similar).     

Complete synchronization of Kuramoto oscillators with finite inertia

We present an approach based on Gronwall’s inequalities for the asymptotic complete phase-frequency synchronization of Kuramoto oscillators with finite inertia. For given finite inertia and coupling strength, we present admissible classes of initial configurations and natural frequency distributions, which lead to the complete phase-frequency synchronization asymptotically. For this, we explicitly identify invariant regions for the Kuramoto flow, and derive second-order Gronwall’s inequalities for the evolution of phase and frequency diameters. Our detailed time-decay estimates for phase and frequency diameters are independent of the number of oscillators. We also compare our analytical results with numerical simulations.     

Fabrication of two biomimetic superhydrophobic polymeric surfaces

Two biomimetic superhydrophobic polymeric surfaces were obtained by a simple approach under ambient atmosphere. Water and ethanol were used as the nonsolvents in the method of phase separation in different systems. The influences of various factors in the process were investigated. Both of the as-prepared films showed excellent superhydrophobicity, depending on the high contact angle and the low contact angle hysteresis. Moreover, the classic and a new modified Cassie-Baxter relation were used on the polystyrene and poly-α-methyl styrene films to confirm the superhydrophobic performance.     

Quantum entanglement and quantum phase transitions in frustrated Majumdar-Ghosh model

By using the density matrix renormalization group technique, the quantum phase transitions in the frustrated Majumdar-Ghosh model are investigated. The behaviors of the conventional order parameter and the quantum entanglement entropy are analyzed in detail. The order parameter is found to peak at J₂∼0.58, but not at the Majumdar-Ghosh point (J₂=0.5). Although, the quantum entanglements calculated with different subsystems display dissimilarly, the extremes of their first derivatives approach to the same critical point. By finite size scaling, this quantum critical point J^C₂ converges to around 0.301 in the thermodynamic limit, which is consistent with those predicted previously by some authors (Tonegawa and Harada, 1987 [6]; Kuboki and Fukuyama, 1987 [7]; Chitra et al., 1995 [9]). Across the J^C₂, the system undergoes a quantum phase transition from a gapless spin-fluid phase to a gapped dimerized phase.
