Structural and tribological properties of polytetrafluoroethylene composites in atomic oxygen environment

Effects of atomic oxygen (AO) irradiation on the structural and tribological behaviors of glass fiber (GF) and MoS₂ filled polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composites were investigated in a ground‐based simulation facility, in which the average energy of AO was about 5 eV and the flux was 5.0 × 10¹⁵ cm^–2 s^–1. The structural changes were characterized by XPS and attenuated total‐reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and the tribological changes were evaluated by friction and wear tests and SEM analysis of the worn surfaces. It was found that AO irradiation induced the degradation of PTFE molecular chains, and the primary erosion mechanism is collisionally induced rather than chemically induced. The addition of MoS₂ filler significantly increased the AO resistance of PTFE composites. Friction and wear tests indicated that GF and MoS₂ improved the tribological properties of materials before and after AO irradiation. Short GF and MoS₂ exhibited a good synergistic effect for improving the AO resistant and tribological properties of PTFE material. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Real-time tomographic reconstructor based on convolutional neural networks for solar observation

Solar observation is the branch of astronomy devoted to the study of the Sun. When the light wavefront that comes from the Sun penetrates the atmosphere, it suffers some distortions caused by optically turbulent layers that change the wavefront's shape and morphology. Therefore, in order to obtain a good-quality image, it is necessary to correct the induced error. This is done by applying adaptive optics (AO) techniques. In the case of the present research, it is performed with the help of a Single Conjugate Adaptive Optics System (SCAO). The reconstruction technique proposed in this research is a SCAO based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs). This research develops and assesses a real-time tomographic reconstructor based on CNN, able to correct the error introduced by the atmosphere in the light wavefront received from the Sun. The CNN was trained and validated using data from the Durham AO Simulation Platform as input information. This platform incorporates certain solar functionalities that have been employed in the present research, allowing us to simulate a solar telescope. The normalized errors obtained for both ReLu and Leaky ReLu kernels were promising, without showing statistically significant differences among kernels in the value of RMSE volts of the deformable mirror commands. When different kernel dimensions are compared, statistically significant differences are found, showing that RMSE volts of the deformable mirror commands are lower for 3 × 3 kernels when compared with those of dimensions 5 × 5 and 7 × 7. As far as the authors know, this is the first time that an AO system based on CNN has been developed for solar telescopes.     

Optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexed transmission using all‐optical discrete Fourier transform

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) can provide spectrally efficient communication channels because it can utilize carrier orthogonality and various impairment mitigation methods. An optical OFDM signal can be generated electronically to multiplex lower‐rate carriers. In recent advancements, OFDM signals are also shown to be generated and demultiplexed by all‐optical discrete Fourier transform (DFT), overcoming the speed limit of electronics for >Tbps capacity. High‐performance DFT devices, such as arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) or planar lightwave circuit (PLC), are critically required to obtain strong orthogonality for scalable all‐optical OFDM (AO‐OFDM) system implementations. Advanced techniques such as coherent modulation and detection with digital impairment mitigation are also important for long‐reach AO‐OFDM transmissions. More recently, optical superchannel schemes have been introduced utilizing coherent detection for multi‐Tbps AO‐OFDM transmissions. This paper reviews the device and system aspects for the AO‐OFDM technology, including a generalized theoretical model to provide an indepth understanding.

Palladium immobilized on amidoxime‐functionalized magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles: a highly stable and efficient magnetically recoverable nanocatalyst for sonogashira coupling reaction

We describe the synthesis of a novel Fe₃O₄/amidoxime (AO)/Pd nanocatalyst by grafting of AO groups on Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles and subsequent deposition of Pd nanoparticles. Prior to grafting of AO, the 2‐cyanoethyl‐functionalized Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles prepared through combining 2‐cyanoethyltriethoxysilane and Fe₃O₄ were treated with hydroxylamine. The AO‐grafted Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles were then used as a platform for the deposition of Pd nanoparticles. The catalyst was characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopies, vibrating sample magnetometry, wavelength‐ and energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopies and inductively coupled plasma analysis. Fe₃O₄/AO/Pd is novel phosphine‐free recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for Sonogashira reactions. Interestingly, the novel catalyst could be recovered in a facile manner from the reaction mixture by applying an external magnet device and recycled seven times without any significant loss in activity.

A novel high-peak power double AO Q-switches pulse Nd:YAG laser for drilling

This paper reports on the characterization and analysis of a novel high power with double acousto-optical (AO) Q-switch pulse laser. It is shown that two AO Q-switches, in which acousto-fields are perpendicular to each other, switch-loss is nearly three times larger than one AO Q-switch, one time larger than the two AO Q-switches in which acousto-field are parallel. The laser pulse bursts, with 5–50 kHz repetition rate of the burst, typically 200 ns duration, 400 kW the peak power, 5 mm mrad beam parameter product, are obtained. Using the laser for drilling, the perfect drilling results are given to a thinner recast layer.     

Viscosity method in a transonic flow

We prove that the solution of a nonviscous compressible transonic flow can be obtained as a limit of viscous solutions, if the viscosity and heat conductivity tend to zero. To obtain an isentropic irrotational flow it is necessary to control the entropy and temperature on the boundary in a convenient way     

Output properties of 1.57 μm intracavity pumped optical parametric oscillator

A 1.57 μm eye-safe laser is realized by placing a KTP crystal into a diode-end-pumped, acousto-optically (AO) Q-switched Nd:YVO4 laser. For the first time, the 1.06 μm pumping laser with a concave–concave cavity is used to lower the threshold of the intracavity-pumped optical parametric oscillator (IPOPO). The pumping threshold and output characteristics of the OPO are analyzed by changing repetition rate of the AO Q-switch and output mirrors with different transmissivity at 1.57 μm. The results show that the pumping threshold will decrease with the lower output transmissivity and the lower repetition rate, but the narrower output pulse width can be obtained with the higher output transmissivity.
