A planar chiral nanostructure with asymmetric transmission of linearly polarized wave and huge optical activity in near-infrared band

Just like an electronic diode that allows the electrical current to flow in one direction only, a kind of chiral metamaterial structure with a similar functionality for the electromagnetic wave is proposed. The designed nanostructure that consists of twisted metallic split-ring resonators on both sides of a dielectric substrate achieves asymmetric transmission for a forward and backward propagating linearly polarized wave by numerical simulation in near-infrared band. Difference in transmission efficiency of the optimized structure between the same polarized waves incident from opposite directions can reach a maximum at the communication wavelength （1.55 μm）. Moreover, the simulation results of this structure also exhibit strong optical activity and circular dichroism.

Fast evaluation of Helmholtz potential on graphics processing units (GPUs)

This paper presents a parallel algorithm implemented on graphics processing units (GPUs) for rapidly evaluating spatial convolutions between the Helmholtz potential and a large-scale source distribution. The algorithm implements a non-uniform grid interpolation method (NGIM), which uses amplitude and phase compensation and spatial interpolation from a sparse grid to compute the field outside a source domain. NGIM reduces the computational time cost of the direct field evaluation at N observers due to N co-located sources from O(N²) to O(N) in the static and low-frequency regimes, to O(N log N) in the high-frequency regime, and between these costs in the mixed-frequency regime. Memory requirements scale as O(N) in all frequency regimes. Several important differences between CPU and GPU implementations of the NGIM are required to result in optimal performance on respective platforms. In particular, in the CPU implementations all operations, where possible, are pre-computed and stored in memory in a preprocessing stage. This reduces the computational time but significantly increases the memory consumption. In the GPU implementations, where handling memory often is a critical bottle neck, several special memory handling techniques are used to accelerate the computations. A significant latency of the GPU global memory access is hidden by implementing coalesced reading, which requires arranging many array elements in contiguous parts of memory. Contrary to the CPU version, most of the steps in the GPU implementations are executed on-fly and only necessary arrays are kept in memory. This results in significantly reduced memory consumption, increased problem size N that can be handled, and reduced computational time on GPUs. The obtained GPU–CPU speed-up ratios are from 150 to 400 depending on the required accuracy and problem size. The presented method and its CPU and GPU implementations can find important applications in various fields of physics and engineering.

适用于等熵流动的交错拉氏Godunov方法

为消除传统单元中心型Godunov方法在求解稀疏波问题时的非物理过热现象,发展一种适用于等熵流动的交错拉氏Godunov方法.主要的特征是采用速度与热力学变量交错分布的形式,避免在单元内进行速度平均,从而消除由于动量平均过程导致的动能耗散.与传统的von Neumann型交错网格方法相比,网格的边界通量由节点处的多维黎曼求解器提供,克服了多维人工粘性选取带来的困难.为减少多维黎曼求解器在求解稀疏波问题时的非物理熵增,给出稀疏波出现的合理判据,从而保证了热力学关系式的满足.数值实验表明：该方法能很好地消除稀疏波的过热现象,同时在求解激波问题时又能保持与传统单元中心型拉氏方法相同的激波捕捉能力.

Improper hydrogen bonding and motional narrowing in binary mixtures of 2‐ and 3‐bromopyridine in methanol probed by polarized Raman study and DFT calculations

A concentration‐dependent Raman study of the ν(C Br) stretching and trigonal bending modes of 2‐ and 3‐Br‐pyridine (2Br‐p and 3Br‐p) in CH₃OH was performed at different mole fractions of the reference molecule, 2Br‐p/3Br‐p, from 0.1 to 0.9 in order to understand the origin of blue/red wavenumber shifts of the vibrational modes due to hydrogen‐bond formation. The appearance of additional Raman bands in these binary systems at ∼617 cm⁻¹in the case of 2Br‐p and at ∼618 cm⁻¹ in the case of 3Br‐p compared to neat bromopyridine derivatives were attributed to specific hydrogen‐bonded complexes formed in the mixtures. The interpretation of experimental results is supported by density functional calculations on optimized geometries and vibrational wavenumbers of 2Br‐p and 3Br‐p and a series of hydrogen‐bonded complexes with methanol. The parameters obtained from these calculations were used for a qualitative explanation of the blue/red shifts. The wavenumber shifts and linewidth changes for the ν(C Br) stretching and trigonal bending modes as a function of concentration reveal that the caging effects leading to motional narrowing and diffusion‐causing line broadening are simultaneously operative, in addition to the blue shift caused due to hydrogen bonding.

An apparatus for NMR of laser polarized 129Xe on single crystal surfaces

Due to a lack of at least 2 orders of magnitude in the amount of sample nuclei, single crystal surfaces are out of reach for conventional NMR measurements. Our aim is to prove that highly polarized ¹²⁹Xe provides a technique to overcome this restriction. Therefore an apparatus for polarizing ¹²⁹Xe up to 0.7 by spin transfer from optically pumped Rb has been designed as well as an NMR spectrometer in combination with a UHV chamber with sample cleaning, cooling and characterization abilities and a special manifold of glass stopcocks with a liquid nitrogen cooled trap for dosing nitrogen free polarized Xe into the chamber onto the surface. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
