Impact of higher-order effects on dissipative soliton in metamaterials

We study the influence of higher-order effects such as third order dispersion (TOD), fourth order dispersion (FOD), quintic nonlinearity (QN), self steepening (SS) and second order nonlinear dispersion (SOND) on the dynamics of dissipative soliton (DS) in metamaterials. Considering each higher-order effect as a perturbation to the system and following Lagrangian variational method, we demonstrate stable dynamics of DS as a result of the interplay between different higher-order effects. We also perform numerical analysis to confirm the analytical results.     

暗怪波的相互作用

以耦合非线性薛定谔方程为理论模型,数值研究了两个一阶暗怪波在正常色散单模光纤中的相互作用.基于一阶暗怪波精确解,采用分步傅里叶数值模拟法,从间距、相位差和振幅系数比方面讨论相邻两个一阶暗怪波之间的相互作用.基于二阶暗怪波精确解,讨论了两个一阶暗怪波的非线性相互作用.研究结果表明:同相位情况下,间距参数T1为0、5、20时,相邻两个一阶暗怪波相互作用激发产生“扭结型”暗怪波.相比较于单个暗怪波发生能量的弥散,“扭结型”暗怪波分裂形成多个次暗怪波.反相位情况下,间距参数T1为2、7、12时,相邻两个一阶暗怪波相互作用也可以激发产生“扭结型”暗怪波.并且“扭结型”暗怪波初始激发的空间位置偏离原始单个暗怪波的位置5.振幅系数比越大,该空间位置越接近5.二阶暗怪波可以看作是两个一阶暗怪波的非线性叠加,复合型和三组分型二阶暗怪波与相邻两个一阶暗怪波的相互作用略有相似.     

Glutathione-capped core-shell structured magnetite nanoparticles: Fabrication and their nonlinear optical characteristics

Core-shell structured magnetic Fe₃O₄@glutathione composite nanoparticles were synthesized and examined using diverse methods including Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, transmission electron microscope, thermogravimetric analysis, and vibrating sample magnetometer analysis. In addition, the nonlinear optical measurements were performed by both open and closed aperture z-scan methods using an aqueous colloidal solution of the fabricated nanoparticles. The colloidal system exhibited a positive nonlinear refractive index because of the self-focusing effect arising from optical re-orientation. Although optical re-orientation is a rare phenomenon in nanocolloids, high polarizability of the enveloping organic ligands caused optical re-orientation of the composite nanoparticles in the electrical field direction of the incident beam. Finally, the effect of external voltage on the nonlinear optical index was further investigated.

两亲嵌段共聚物溶液内胶束形成的温度效应

合成了一系列具有两亲嵌段结构的聚（乙二醇）（PEO）一聚（丙二醇）（PPO）共聚物．利用荧光探针及示差量热法测定了共聚物水溶液的临界胶束形成温度（CMT）值．发现二嵌段共聚物（PEO－PPO）和三嵌段共聚物（PEO－PPO－PEO）有着类似的变化规律，即随共聚物分子中疏水链（PPO）长度的增大，其CMT值降低．但三嵌段共聚（PPO－PEO－PPO）则因疏水链段处于共聚物分子的两端，因而在溶液中有可能形成立体网状交联结构．此外，利用探针分子在不同极性溶剂中荧光峰值波长发生位移的现象可以对形成胶束内核的组织程度、极性大小进行估测．     

Evaluation of the aerobic composting process of winery and distillery residues by thermal methods

The possibility of using thermal analysis for a quick characterization of chemical changes was tested in the organic matter from composting materials. Differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetry (TG) and the first derivative of the TG (DTG) were calculated in oxidizing conditions on compost samples obtained from three composting piles. The composting piles were made by mixing winery and distillery residues with sewage sludge (pile 1), with cow manure (pile 2) and hen droppings (pile 3). The temperature values in the pile 1 showed a different evolution during the thermophilic stage of the composting process in relation to the piles 2 and 3. The thermophilic stage for pile 1 was 17 days, meanwhile for the piles 2 and 3 were around 80 and 110 days, respectively, and probably pile 1 was not well composted. The curves of ion current of CO₂ have been recorded in order to shed light on changes occurring in organic matter during composting. Particularly DTG curves allowed us to distinguish between well (piles 2 and 3) and poor (pile 1) stabilized organic matter. The energy released was calculated for each sample by integrating the DTA curves and these results are agreed with the previous hypothesis. Information deriving from weight losses, registered by the TG and DTG curves, enables to follow the evolution state of the organic matter and therefore changes in its stability. These data could determine the final point of the composting process of winery and distillery residues and then reduce the time for compost harvest.
