Stability of Optically Injected Two‐State Quantum‐Dot Lasers

Simultaneous two‐state lasing is a unique property of semiconductor quantum‐dot (QD) lasers. This not only changes steady‐state characteristics of the laser device but also its dynamic response to perturbations. In this paper we investigate the dynamic stability of QD lasers in an external optical injection setup. Compared to conventional single‐state laser devices, we find a strong suppression of dynamical instabilities in two‐state lasers. Furthermore, depending on the frequency and intensity of the injected light, pronounced areas of bistability between both lasing frequencies appear, which can be employed for fast optical switching in all‐optical photonic computing applications. These results emphasize the suitability of QD semiconductor lasers in future integrated optoelectronic systems where a high level of stability is required.     

Analysis of the DNA Fourier transform-infrared microspectroscopic signature using an all-reflecting objective

The Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) signature of dry samples of DNA and DNA-polypeptide complexes, as studied by IR microspectroscopy using a diamond attenuated total reflection (ATR) objective, has revealed important discriminatory characteristics relative to the PO₂⁻ vibrational stretchings. However, DNA IR marks that provide information on the sample's richness in hydrogen bonds have not been resolved in the spectral profiles obtained with this objective. Here we investigated the performance of an “all reflecting objective” (ARO) for analysis of the FT-IR signal of hydrogen bonds in DNA samples differing in base richness types (salmon testis vs calf thymus). The results obtained using the ARO indicate prominent band peaks at the spectral region representative of the vibration of nitrogenous base hydrogen bonds and of NH and NH₂ groups. The band areas at this spectral region differ in agreement with the DNA base richness type when using the ARO. A peak assigned to adenine was more evident in the AT-rich salmon DNA using either the ARO or the ATR objective. It is concluded that, for the discrimination of DNA IR hydrogen bond vibrations associated with varying base type proportions, the use of an ARO is recommended.

高响应率石墨烯-CsPbBr3量子点光电探测器

全无机金属卤化物钙钛矿材料CsPbX_3(X=Cl,Br,I)不仅有优异光电特性,还有比有机-无机杂化钙钛矿更好的热稳定性,在光电探测器领域有很大应用前景.但由于全无机钙钛矿材料自身迁移率较低,直接用于光电探测器其光响应率也很低,难以满足实际应用.以热注入法合成高质量的CsPbBr_3钙钛矿量子点材料,再将其与高迁移率的单层石墨烯薄膜相结合,构建出石墨烯-CsPbBr_3量子点复合光电探测器,光响应率高达3.5×10~4 A·W~(-1).研究表明引入石墨烯材料作为传输层后,CsPbBr_3量子点的光生电子空穴对得到有效分离并快速传输.两种材料界面处存在陷阱态,产生了光栅压效应,延长了载流子寿命.两种机制结合使复合光电探测器的光响应率大大提升.

Electrochemistry of platinum single crystal surfaces: Part II. Structural effect on formic acid oxidation and poison formation on Pt (111), (100) and (110)

The geometrical arrangement of sites favourable for formic acid oxidation and the poison formation reaction is determined using low index platinum single crystal planes. For this determination, the least number of sites required for the reactions to occur, which was obtained in the study of electrocatalysis by adatoms, was used, that is three adjacent sites are required for formic acid oxidation and four adjacent sites are required for poison formation.The triplet of sites on a unit lattice of Pt (111) and that on a unit lattice of Pt (100) plane are equally very favourable for the main oxidation reaction, but that on a unit lattice of Pt (110) is not so favourable as those on the former two planes. The oxidation rate is more than one order of magnitude lower on the latter than on the former triplets.The poison formation reaction proceeds at a very high rate on the (100) and the (110) planes. The geometrical arrangement of four sites on a square unit lattice of the (100) plane and on a rectangular unit lattice of the (110) plane are favourable for the poison formation reaction, but that on a hexagonal unit lattice of the (111) plane is not so favourable as the former two.

A pressure-based algorithm for multi-phase flow at all speeds

A new finite volume-based numerical algorithm for predicting incompressible and compressible multi-phase flow phenomena is presented. The technique is equally applicable in the subsonic, transonic, and supersonic regimes. The method is formulated on a non-orthogonal coordinate system in collocated primitive variables. Pressure is selected as a dependent variable in preference to density because changes in pressure are significant at all speeds as opposed to variations in density, which become very small at low Mach numbers. The pressure equation is derived from overall mass conservation. The performance of the new method is assessed by solving the following two-dimensional two-phase flow problems: (i) incompressible turbulent bubbly flow in a pipe, (ii) incompressible turbulent air–particle flow in a pipe, (iii) compressible dilute gas–solid flow over a flat plate, and (iv) compressible dusty flow in a converging diverging nozzle. Predictions are shown to be in excellent agreement with published numerical and/or experimental data.
