A Quasi-Symmetric Coupled Quantum Well and Its Electric-Optical Properties

We propose a novel coupled quantum well structure, i.e. a quasi-symmetric coupled quantum well (QSCQW). Based on the demands of optical switching devices for quantum well materials, the QSCQW configuration is further optimized. Consequently, in the case of low applied electric field 25kV/cm and low absorption loss 100cm^-1, a large field-induced refractive index change (for TE mode, n = 0.0106; for TM mode, n = 0.0115) is obtained in the QSCQW structure at the operation wavelength 1550hm. The value is in one or two order of magnitude larger than that in a rectangular quantum well and about 50% larger than that of five-step asymmetric coupled quantum well structure under the same working conditions. The refractive index change obtained with the optimized QSCQW under so low absorption loss and applied electric field is very attractive for semiconductor optical switching devices. This manifests that the QSCQW structure has a great potential for applications in ultra-fast and low-voltage optical switches and in travelling wave modulators.

利用DA算法实现大规模FIR滤波器

分布式算法是一种广泛地应用在可编程逻辑序列（FPCA）和ASIC设计中计算乘积和的算法。DA算法的处理速度仅与输入的位宽有关，对于大规模乘积和的运算，其计算速度有着明显的优势。当输入位宽过大时，可以将DA算法改进成并串结构以获得更快的处理速度。该文对在FPCA中利用DA算法实现大规模FIR滤波器，提出了具体的实现方案。     

Resonantly Enhanced Continuous-Wave Four-Wave Mixing in a Five-Level Cold Atomic Medium

Using Schroedinger-Maxwell formalism, we propose and analyse a cw four-wave mixing (FWM) scheme for the generation of coherent light in a five-level double-∧ atomic system based on electromagnetically induced transparency. We derive the corresponding explicit analytical expressions for the generated FWM field. The influence of hyperfine sublevel on the amplitude of the generated FWM field is predicted in detail. We also give a brief discussion on the experimental realization of the proposed scheme.

邮票上的物理学史(63) --天体物理学:新的观测手段

天体物理学是天文学三大分支中最现代和最活跃的一个分支(另外两个分支是天体测量学和天体力学),也是物理学的一个重要分支,它研究的对象是自然界中尺度最大的客体天体和宇宙,而且它们是处在人类在地球上无法复现的极端物理条件(超高温、超高压、超高密度、超强磁场、超强辐射等)之下.     

Mid-infrared generation based on a periodically poled LiNbO3 optical parametric oscillator

We report a nanosecond Nd:YVO_4-pumped optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based on periodically poled LiNbO_3 (PPLN). Tuning is achieved in this experiment by varying the temperature and period of the PPLN. The design of double-pass singly resonant oscillator (DSRO) and confocal cavity enables the OPO threshold to be lowered considerably, resulting in a simple, compact, all-solid-state configuration with the mid-infrared idler powers of up to 466mW at 3.41μm.     

精选实验素材加强实验教学

多年来人们对实验教学加以重视的同时却陷入了一个误区：只重视做好课堂演示实验和学生分组实验，而忽视了课外小实验的作用．其实，经常性地引导学生自己动手，就地取材，开展课外小实验、小制作，对加强物理实验教学，加深对物理知识的理解，提高学生的分析解决问题的能力，将会起到重要的作用．
