Large deflection angle fan-out element based on dislocated grating array

We study the possibility of designing and fabricating a fan-out element based on a computer-generated hologram (CGH) which is capable of providing a large deflection angle without using excessively small CGH cells. The recent development of CGHs using dislocated grating arrays was employed to design the fan-out element. Experimental results show that a deflection angle of 41° was achieved using a CGH cell size of 10 μm×10 μm and an operating optical wavelength of 0.98 μm. Further experimental results and theoretical analysis are also presented in order to investigate the characteristics of this type of fan-out element.     

温度变化对谐衍射透镜性能的影响

分析了温度变化对谐衍射透镜的焦距、谐振波长、衍射效率等性能的影响,建立了相应的数学表达式,并对其进行了数值模拟.提出了漂移函数的概念,以表征焦距和谐振波长随温度的变化程度.另外,还给出了各谐振级次的衍射效率随温度变化的相关规律.最后比较了在相位匹配数不同、但设计波长相同时,温度变化对衍射效率的影响,发现相位匹配数越大,衍射效率对温度变化越敏感.     

硬X射线微束掠入射实验的控制和数据采集系统及其应用

在国内发展了硬X射线微束掠入射实验方法,并将此具有微米级高空间分辨率的方法应用于纳米厚度薄膜的微区分析。该实验方法对分析样品表面或薄膜在微小区域的不均匀组分、结构、厚度、粗糙度和表面元素化学价态等信息具有重要意义。基于X射线全反射原理,以微聚焦实验站的高通量、能量可调的单色微束X射线为基础,通过集成运动控制、光强探测、衍射和荧光探测,设计了掠入射实验方法的控制和数据采集系统。此系统采用分布式控制结构,并基于Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System （EPICS）环境设计SPEC控制软件。通过建立SPEC和EPICS的访问通道,实现SPEC软件对EPICS平台上设备的控制和数据获取。在所设计的控制和数据采集系统中,运动控制系统控制多维样品台电机的运动,实现定位样品位置和调节掠入射角;光强探测系统则监测样品出射光强度,通过样品台运动控制和光强探测的联控,实现样品台的扫描定位控制;通过衍射和荧光探测系统获取不同入射深度下样品的衍射峰强度和荧光计数。此外,为准确控制掠入射角角度,必须确定样品平面与X射线平行的零角度位置,对此给出一种自动定位零角度的方法,编写了该方法的控制算法,设计了相应的控制软件。零角度自动化定位的扫描结果表明,实验系统微区分析的空间分辨率达到2.8 μm,零角度定位精度小于±0.01°。利用该系统在上海光源微聚焦实验站首次实现了具有自动化准确控制零角度的微束掠入射X射线衍射和荧光同步表征的实验方法,实验中被测样品为10 nm Au/Cr/Si薄膜材料,Si基底最上层为10 nm厚的Au薄膜,其间为一层很薄的Cr粘附层。在不同掠入射角下测量样品的衍射信号,获取不同入射深度下样品的衍射峰强度,并实现在同一掠入射角下,同步采集样品的荧光计数信号,从而确定了样品表层的相结构信息以及荧光信号强度与入射角关系,实现了对纳米厚度薄膜在微小区域的相结构和组分分析。此外,通过该技术能够选取荧光计数最大值对应的入射角度,有助于提高后续发展的低浓度样品掠入射X射线吸收近边结构实验方法的信噪比。     

Enhancement of pupil-masked wavelength-scale gas-filled flat acoustic lens based on anomaly apodization effect

In this letter, the improvement in focus by the use of a pupil mask produced in an acoustic mesoscale cuboid particle filled with CO₂ is reported. Thereby, the result shows that the pupil mask increases the sound intensity and also increases the resolution (or a reduction of the full width at half maximum, FWHM) in focus compared to the non-masked one. These results are important because they confirm the effect of abnormal amplitude apodization for a one-wavelength dimension acoustic lens and demonstrate that it is possible to improve sound focusing of a cuboid gas-filled lens with one wavelength dimension. This is the smallest size of an acoustic lens ever considered in this type of literature, with side dimensions of the cube equal to one wavelength and a diameter to focus ratio of 2.5, the sound amplification in focus is 5.4 dB at 4125 Hz, with the resolution near to the diffraction limit.     

A hybrid numerical–asymptotic boundary element method for high frequency scattering by penetrable convex polygons

We present a novel hybrid numerical–asymptotic boundary element method for high frequency acoustic and electromagnetic scattering by penetrable (dielectric) convex polygons. Our method is based on a standard reformulation of the associated transmission boundary value problem as a direct boundary integral equation for the unknown Cauchy data, but with a nonstandard numerical discretization which efficiently captures the high frequency oscillatory behaviour. The Cauchy data is represented as a sum of the classical geometrical optics approximation, computed by a beam tracing algorithm, plus a contribution due to diffraction, computed by a Galerkin boundary element method using oscillatory basis functions chosen according to the principles of the Geometrical Theory of Diffraction. We demonstrate with a range of numerical experiments that our boundary element method can achieve a fixed accuracy of approximation using only a relatively small, frequency-independent number of degrees of freedom. Moreover, for the scattering scenarios we consider, the inclusion of the diffraction term provides an order of magnitude improvement in accuracy over the geometrical optics approximation alone.
