Nano‐Ruby: A Promising Fluorescent Probe for Background‐Free Cellular Imaging

Bioprobes based on fluorescent ruby nanoparticles, which are suitable for ultrasensitive imaging, are reported. A stable aqueous/buffer colloid, permitting facile conjugation to proteins, is produced by femtosecond laser ablation of ruby and the nanoparticles (mean size 17 nm) are photostable, with long lifetime (1–4 ms) 694 nm emission. With time‐gating complete (>20 dB) suppression of cell autofluorescence and suppression of exogenous fluorophores is observed. Nanoparticles are imaged in as‐grown cells and those immunolabeled with quantum dots. Immunoassay binding to target biomolecules is also demonstrated.     

基于偏振无关分束器的两光子部分纠缠态的简化浓缩方案

经由偏振无关的光学分束器实现对未知两光子部分纠缠态的纠缠浓缩,包括利用单光子探测器的线性光学浓缩方案,和利用弱交叉Kerr非线性媒质、零拍探测的浓缩方案。两对部分纠缠的光子对中各一个信号光子同时通过偏振无关分束器后,当探测到分束器输出模中各有一个光子时,剩余的两光子将处于最大纠缠态。与以前的浓缩方案相比较,我们的浓缩方案不需要额外的Hadmard门对信号光子施加作用,所需要的光学器件较少,这增加了方案在实验实现上的可行性。

Bi2ZnOB2O6单晶偏振拉曼光谱

本文通过分析不同几何配置下的偏振拉曼光谱对非线性光学晶体的晶格振动模式进行了研究. 首先根据因子群分析,将晶体的振动模按晶体对称群的不可约表示进行分类,其次测量了晶体在10–1600 cm^-1范围内,不同几何配置下的偏振拉曼光谱,并在此基础上指认了晶体的晶格振动模式. 300 cm^-1以下的振动峰,归结为晶体的外振动,来自[BiO₆],[ZnO₄],[BO₄]和[BO₃]原子基团的平动和转动;300cm^-1以上为晶体的内振动,主要与Bi-O,和Zn-O键振动有关. 晶体拉曼光谱中最高振动频率达到1407 cm^-1,被指认为[BO₃]三角形中B-O键的伸缩振动,体现了[BO₃]基团中高的电子非局域化程度. 关键词： 2ZnOB₂O₆单晶')" href="#">Bi₂ZnOB₂O₆单晶 偏振拉曼光谱 振动模式

基于扩频码的单载波迭代频域均衡水声通信

单载波时域均衡在长时延扩展水声信道中计算量大,并对接收机参数的选择较为敏感,可靠性低,而正交频分复用信号峰均功率比高、对频率偏移敏感. 针对这些问题,提出基于扩频码的单载波块传输高速率水声通信方法和基于T/4分数间隔迭代频域均衡的接收机算法. 该接收机利用已知扩频码进行信道估计以及对由多普勒偏移引起的旋转相位进行估计,并通过一种低复杂度迭代频域均衡算法改善系统性能. 开展了湖上实验研究,结果表明在浅水1.8 km距离且复杂多径干扰条件下,利用BPSK/QPSK调制可实现10^-2–10^-4的误码率并达到1500–3000 bit/s的有效数据率. 关键词： 水声通信 单载波 频域均衡 迭代处理     

Proposition of Single Molecular Orientation Determination Using polarization Controlled Beam by Liquid Crystal Spatial Light Modulators

We have proposed a method to control the three-dimensional electric field in the focus of an optical microscope using two non-twisted liquid crystal spatial light modulators, and to detect the molecular orientation of a single molecule. The three-dimensional electric field is generated by focusing the beam with two dimensional spatial distribution of polarization. The possibility of detection of three-dimensional single molecular orientation was shown by numerical calculations. © 2005 The Optical Society of Japan     

Time-Resolved Reflectance of an Optical Pulse in Adult Heads Based on the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) Analysis

Time-resolved reflectance of an optical pulse in adult head models including non-scattering cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has been analyzed by the finite difference time domain (FDTD) analysis formulated by the authors. Averaged light intensity and mean time of flight dependences on the source-detector separations calculated by the FDTD analysis are in good agreement with previous experiments, hybrid finite element method (FEM) and Monte Carlo calculations, which justify the FDTD analysis. Based on the analysis, time-resolved reflectance sensitivities to detect optical property changes in brain have been analyzed. As a result, it has been become clear that the sensitivities to detect absorption changes of brain are enhanced in time-resolved reflectance compared to the sensitivities in averaged light intensity, whereas the sensitivities to detect scattering property changes of brain are almost the same in time-resolved reflectance and in averaged light intensity. © 2005 The Optical Society of Japan     

Integral Representations in Linearly Convex Polyhedra

We introduce the notion of mixed Levian (Levi determinant) of a system of k Hermitian and k linear forms. In terms of these Levians we obtain an integral formula for holomorphic functions in linearly convex polyhedra.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 Krivokolesko V. P. and Tsikh A.

Far-infrared optical properties of YVO4 single crystal

Near-normal incident infrared reflectivity spectra of a (001) YVO₄ single crystal have been measured at different temperatures in the frequency region between 100 and 6000 cm^-1. The reflectivity spectra are analyzed with the factorized form of the dielectric function, and the dielectric properties and optical conductivity of the YVO₄ crystal are obtained. From the TO/LO splitting, effective charges at different temperatures are calculated to study the ionicity of YVO₄. The internal modes of the VO₄^3- ion and the external modes of the Y(VO₄) lattice are compared with SiO₄^4- in zircon and with other rare-earth vanadates.
