Author(s):Chen, Enqing(1,2); Dong, Bo(3); Li, Yang(1,2); Li, Ziwan(1,2); Wang, Xiaoli(1,2); Zhao, Yudi(1); Xu, Wei(1,2); Zhao, Wei(1,2,4); Wang, Yishan(1,2)Source: Optics Communications Volume: 497 Issue: DOI: 10.1016/j.optcom.2021.127140 Published: October 15, 2021Abstract:A compact all-optical tunable fiber filter based on a few-mode optical fiber modal interferometer coated with graphene epoxy resin composite material is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The interferometer is constructed with a 2-cm FMF connected to two single mode fibers. After coating the graphene epoxy resin composite material on the outside of the interferometer, it shows the all-optical wavelength tunability, and experimental results show that the wavelength shift changes quasilinearly with the pump power changing. The wavelength tunable range reaches 5.062 nm with a step of 0.016 nm/mw. It is expected to have practical application in optical communication, fiber sensing, fiber laser and optical spectrum analysis. ? 2021 Elsevier B.V.Accession Number: 20212310453809 -

Title:Genetic-algorithm-based deep neural networks for highly efficient photonic device design
Author(s):Ren, Yangming(1,2); Zhang, Linxuan(1,2); Wang, Weiqiang(1,2); Wang, Xinyu(1,2); Lei, Yufang(1,2); Xue, Yulong(1,2); Sun, Xiaochen(1,2); Zhang, Wenfu(1,2)Source: Photonics Research Volume: 9 Issue: 6 DOI: 10.1364/PRJ.416294 Published: June 1, 2021Abstract:While deep learning has demonstrated tremendous potential for photonic device design, it often demands a large amount of labeled data to train these deep neural network models. Preparing these data requires high-resolution numerical simulations or experimental measurements and cost significant, if not prohibitive, time and resources. In this work, we present a highly efficient inverse design method that combines deep neural networks with a genetic algorithm to optimize the geometry of photonic devices in the polar coordinate system. The method requires significantly less training data compared with previous inverse design methods. We implement this method to design several ultra-compact silicon photonics devices with challenging properties including power splitters with uncommon splitting ratios, a TE mode converter, and a broadband power splitter. These devices are free of the features beyond the capability of photolithography and generally in compliance with silicon photonics fabrication design rules. ? 2021 Chinese Laser PressAccession Number: 20212310447556 -

Title:Secondary electron emission characteristics of the Al2O3/MgO double-layer structure prepared by atomic layer deposition
Author(s):Cao, Weiwei(1,2,3); Wang, Bo(1); Yang, Yang(1); Zhu, Bingli(1,5); Guo, Junjiang(3,4,5); Xu, Peng(1,3,6); Bai, Xiaohong(1,6); Qin, Junjun(1,5); Wang, Chao(1,5); Zhu, Jingping(2); Bai, Yonglin(1,5)Source: Ceramics International Volume: 47 Issue: 7 DOI: 10.1016/j.ceramint.2020.12.128 Published: April 1, 2021Abstract:As a secondary electron emission layer, an Al2O3/MgO double-layer structure is fabricated by atomic layer deposition (ALD) technology. The thickness range from 1 nm to 4 nm of the top Al2O3 layer deposited on 20 nm MgO creates a double-layer. The morphology of the cross section, element distribution, surface roughness, X-ray diffraction, and secondary electron yield (SEY) values were measured by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and secondary electron emission (SEE) measurement systems. The SEE characteristics of the MgO single layer, Al2O3 single layer and MgO/Al2O3 double-layer were measured. The maximum SEY of a single MgO layer reached 6.2@600 eV, and the maximum SEY of a single Al2O3 layer reached 3.92@400 eV. The SEY of the Al2O3/MgO double-layer decreased when the Al2O3 thickness ranged from 1 nm to 4 nm, and the SEY reduction value of the double-layer decreased as the Al2O3 thickness increased. Finally, Dionne's semiempirical SEE model was employed to explain the SEE yield of the prepared composite film structures. These results are useful for depositing a secondary electron emission layer in the channel of microchannel plates. ? 2020Accession Number: 20210109710602 -

Here, we propose an Airy complementary beam subtraction (ACBS) method to improve the axial resolution while keeping the extended FOV. By scanning the optimized designed complementary beam that has two main lobes (TML), the generated complementary light-sheet has almost identical intensity distribution to that of the planar Airy light-sheet except for the central lobe. Subtraction of the two images acquired by double exposure respectively using the planar Airy light-sheet and the planar TML light-sheet can effectively suppress the influence of the out-of-focus background. The axial resolution improves from ～4 μm to 1.2 μm. The imaging performance was demonstrated by imaging specimens of aspergillus conidiophores and GFP labeled mouse brain section. The results show that the ACBS method enables the Airy beam light-sheet fluorescence microscopy to obtain better imaging quality. ? 2021 Optical Society of America.Accession Number: 20214611156350 -

Title:Intensity Demodulation Technology of FBG Time Division Multiplexing Based on Sagnac Ring
Author(s):Wang, Xiaoli(1,2); Dong, Bo(1); Chen, Enqing(1,2); Li, Yang(1,2)Source: Guangzi Xuebao/Acta Photonica Sinica Volume: 50 Issue: 5 DOI: 10.3788/gzxb20215005.0506003 Published: May 25, 2021Abstract:A method of fiber Bragg grating time-division multiplexing intensity demodulation based on Sagnac fiber ring is presented. The time-multiplexing sensing system, consisted of the several FBG gratings with the same central-wavelength, can demodulate the signals by observing the intensity changes of the output spectrum of the FBG gratings. In the signal processing module, the wavelet analysis and Gaussian simulation algorithm are combined to demodulate the system signal together. The experimental results show that the signal-to-noise ratio of the system signal is increased by about 36% from 8.06 dB to 11.7 dB, which effectively improves the anti-interference ability of the system and the detection accuracy for the external parameters. The proposed method effectively increases the number of fiber Bragg grating sensors in the demodulation system with less cost and can be widely applied to various sensor systems or parameter detection systems. ? 2021, Science Press.

Title:Direct axial plane imaging of particle manipulation with nondiffracting Bessel beams
Author(s):An, Sha(1,2); Peng, Tong(1,2); Yan, Shaohui(1); Zhang, Peng(1); Li, Manman(1); Yao, Baoli(1,2)Source: Applied Optics Volume: 60 Issue: 11 DOI: 10.1364/AO.417854 Published: April 10, 2021Abstract:Optical manipulation with nondiffracting beams has been attracting great interest and finding widespread applications in many fields such as chemistry, physics, and biomedicine. Generally, optical manipulation is conducted in an optical microscopy system, which, in general, only allows for imaging motions of particles in the transverse plane, rendering the observation of dynamics processes occurring in the axial plane impractical.We propose and demonstrate an optical manipulation system that incorporates an axial plane imaging module. With this system, the trapping behavior in the transverse plane and the transportation process in the axial plane of a particle immersed in a Bessel beamwere acquired simultaneously in real time. ? 2021 Optical Society of America.Accession Number: 20211710263888 -

As a wide-field imaging technique, SR-SIM usually suffers from issues relating to out-of-focus background, particularly when imaging thick samples. In this study, we develop an integrated SIM with simultaneous SR and optical sectioning (OS) capabilities, facilitating SR imaging of stacked optical sections, with the out-of-focus background suppressed. The combination of the merits of SR and OS is realized by means of a new image reconstruction algorithm. We confirm the validity of the integrated SIM, both experimentally and in simulation. We anticipate that this integrated SIM will assist biologists in obtaining much clearer SR images in relation to thick specimens. ? 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd.Accession Number: 20205109635226 -

Title:Dark matter-wave gap solitons of Bose-Einstein condensates trapped in optical lattices with competing cubic-quintic nonlinearities
Author(s):Chen, Junbo(1,2); Zeng, Jianhua(1,2)Source: Chaos, Solitons and Fractals Volume: 150 Issue: DOI: 10.1016/j.chaos.2021.111149 Published: September 2021Abstract:Solitons are nonlinear self-sustained wave excitations and probably among the most interesting and exciting emergent nonlinear phenomenon in the corresponding theoretical settings. Bright solitons with sharp peak and dark solitons with central notch have been well known and observed in various nonlinear systems. The interplay of periodic potentials, like photonic crystals and lattices in optics and optical lattices in ultracold atoms, with the dispersion has brought about gap solitons within the finite band gaps of the underlying linear Bloch-wave spectrum and, particularly, the bright gap solitons have been experimentally observed in these nonlinear periodic systems, while little is known about the underlying physics of dark gap solitons. Here, we theoretically and numerically investigate the existence, property and stability of one-dimensional matter-wave gap solitons and soliton clusters of Bose-Einstein condensates trapped in optical lattices with competing cubic-quintic nonlinearity, the higher-order of which is self-defocusing and the lower-order (cubic) one is chosen as self-defocusing or focusing nonlinearities. By means of the conventional linear-stability analysis and direct numerical calculations with initial perturbations, we identify the stability and instability areas of the corresponding dark gap solitons and clusters ones. ? 2021 Elsevier LtdAccession Number: 20212610567802 -

Finally, the maximum tube current of 2.37 mA is realized, the electron emission efficiency of photocathode is 0.288 mA/lm, and the output X-ray energy is adjustable from 0 to 25 keV. In addition, based on the characteristics of easy-access to be modulated of the light-controlled pulsed X-ray tube, different frequencies input signal restoration experiment and arbitrary contor X-ray restoration experiment was carried out. ? 2021, Science Press.

Author(s):Song, Jie(1); Kang, Jin-Ho(2); Han, Jung(2)Source: ACS Applied Electronic Materials Volume: 3 Issue: 11 DOI: 10.1021/acsaelm.1c00700 Published: November 23, 2021Abstract:We report the use of colloidal quantum dots (QDs) embedded in nanoporous (NP) gallium nitride (GaN) as a color converter to achieve different emission colors and fabricate micro-light-emitting diodes (micro-LEDs). The optical property of NP-GaN has been studied by analyzing the light transmittance propagating in NP-GaN. A strong light scattering effect can be induced by NP-GaN, resulting in a dramatically increased optical transmission path for blue light and high light absorption by QDs loaded inside NP-GaN. A 4 in. color converter has been achieved with a wavelength deviation of 1 nm across the entire wafer. Monolithic red, green, and blue micro-LEDs have been fabricated with a pixel size of around 35 × 35 μm2. ?Accession Number: 20214611148360 -

Title:Collective multipartite Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering via cascaded four-wave mixing of rubidium atoms
Author(s):Liu, Yang(1,2,3); Cai, Yin(1); Luo, Binshuo(1); Yan, Jin(1); Niu, Mengqi(1); Li, Feng(1); Zhang, Yanpeng(1)Source: Physical Review A Volume: 104 Issue: 3 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevA.104.033704 Published: September 2021Abstract:Collective multipartite Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering is a type of quantum correlation shared among n parties, where the EPR paradox of one party can be realized only by performing local measurements on all the remaining n-1 parties. Here, we propose an efficient method to produce collective multipartite EPR steering via symmetrically and asymmetrically cascading parametric amplification processes, i.e., four-wave mixing (FWM) of rubidium atoms. The simplified collective-steering criterion is introduced using the Coffman-Kundu-Wootters monogamy relation. Moreover, by actively adjusting the parametric gains, the collective EPR steerability is optimized in our schemes. We find that the scale of collective steering can be extended by cascading more FWMs; in particular, introducing optical loss is useful for generating collective steering with more parties only in the asymmetry structure. Our results pave the way for the construction of quantum networks and provide a promising candidate for one-sided device-independent quantum cryptography among multiple users. ? 2021 American Physical Society.Accession Number: 20213810900937
