文摘Herein,we report the synthesis and third-order nonlinear optical(NLO)properties of a novel cage-based 2D metal-organic framework constructed from Ti_(4)L_(6)(L4-=embonate)cage combined with Mg^(2+)and tris[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl]amine(tipa)ligand,whose molecular formula is(Me_(2)CH_(2))_(2)[Mg_(3)(Ti_(4)L_(6))(tipa)(H_(2)O)_(12)](PTC‑378).The Ti_(4)L_(6)tetrahedral cages serve as robust building units,while the Mg^(2+)ions and tipa ligands provide structural stability and tunable optical properties.The resulting PTC‑378 film exhibited intriguing third-order NLO property,which was systematically investigated using Z-scan techniques.Our results demonstrate that the synergistic interaction between Ti_(4)L_(6)cages andπ-conjugated ligands significantly enhances the NLO performance of the materials.CCDC:2453909.

文摘This study explores the impact of bismuth oxide(Bi_(2)O_(3))on the optical and radiation shielding properties of transparent,lead-free thulium-doped bismuth borotellurite radiation shielding glass.The investigated glass composition follows the formula[(TeO_(2))_(75)(B_(2)O_(3))_(25)]_(98-x)(Bi_(2)O_(3))_x[Tm_(2)O_(3)]_(2),where x=0 mol%,5 mol%,10 mol%,15 mol%,20 mol%,25 mol%,and 30 mol%.All glass samples remain transparent,with an optical bandgap(E_(opt))exceeding 3.1 e V,ensuring visible light transmission.Radiation shielding data from Phy-X and XCom reveal interactions of the photoelectric effect,Compton scattering,and pair production,with minimal relative difference in mass attenuation coefficient(MAC)which is between0.05 and 0.56.At 0.662 Me V photon energy,the 20 mol%and 25 mol%Bi_(2)O_(3)glasses exhibit significantly higher Phy-X MAC values than other samples,except RS 520 glass,which contains 71%Pb O.Despite incorporating only up to 25 mol%Bi_(2)O_(3),these glasses outperform others in density,half-value layer(HVL),and mean free path(MFP).Correlating E_(opt)and MAC,the 20 mol%Bi_(2)O_(3)glass is the best candidate for transparent radiation shielding glass due to its wide optical bandgap which prevents ionization of trapped holes.Significantly,the linkage between MFP and molar refraction was also discovered based on the particle size influence on both parameters.

文摘The Underwater Communication Link(UCL)is a crucial component of Underwater Wireless Optical Communication(UWOC)systems,requiring optimised design to mitigate the high power attenuation inherent in seawater.To ensure the reliability of an optimal UCL design,it is essential to account for the three primary scattering regimes:forward scattering(FSC),backward scattering(BSC),and isotropic scattering(ISC)in seawater channels.This study introduces a new photon-tracking model based on a discrete equation,facilitating Monte Carlo Simulation(MCS)to evaluate how different scattering regimes influence received photon distribution.Three distinct Scattering Regime Contribution Weight(SRCW)probability sets were employed,each representing different UCL operational configurations dominated by specific scattering regimes.The proposed modeling approach enables a comprehensive assessment of the temporal characteristics of received optical pulses,channel loss,and time spread-ultimately defining the optimal UCL design parameters.The key findings of this study include:(1)Enhancing the FSC regime dominance leads to a quasi-light waveguide effect over link spans and small Fields of View(FOV)<25°,significantly improving channel performance in Harbor seawater compared to Coastal seawater.(2)A well-designed UCL with a small FOV(<25°)can minimise channel loss and time spread,ensuring high capacity and efficient performance in both Coastal and Harbor seawaters.(3)When BSC and ISC contributions exceed FSC dominance,the received optical pulse undergoes significant temporal broadening,particularly for larger FOV angles(>25°)and extended link spans.(4)The developed novel MCS-based discrete equation provides a simple yet robust model for simulating photon propagation in both homogeneous and inhomogeneous underwater channels.These insights contribute to developing more efficient and reliable UCL designs with military standards by enhancing UWOC system performance over a longer linkspan for a given limited optical power across various underwater environments.
文摘The electronic structure,magnetic,and optical properties of two-dimensional(2D)GaSe doped with rare earth elements X(X=Sc,Y,La,Ce,Eu)were calculated using the first-principles plane wave method based on den-sity functional theory.The results show that intrinsic 2D GaSe is a p-type nonmagnetic semiconductor with an indi-rect bandgap of 2.6611 eV.The spin-up and spin-down channels of Sc-,Y-,and La-doped 2D GaSe are symmetric,they are non-magnetic semiconductors.The magnetic moments of Ce-and Eu-doped 2D GaSe are 0.908μ_(B)and 7.163μ_(B),which are magnetic semiconductors.Impurity energy levels appear in both spin-up and spin-down chan-nels of Eu-doped 2D GaSe,which enhances the probability of electron transition.Compared with intrinsic 2D GaSe,the static dielectric constant of the doped 2D GaSe increases,and the polarization ability is strengthened.The ab-sorption spectrum of the doped 2D GaSe shifts in the low-energy direction,and the red-shift phenomenon occurs,which extends the absorption spectral range.The optical reflection coefficient of the doped 2D GaSe is improved in the low energy region,and the improvement of Eu-doped 2D GaSe is the most obvious.

文摘We report on the performance improvement of long-wave infrared quantum cascade lasers(LWIR QCLs)by studying and optimizing the anti-reflection(AR)optical facet coating.Compared to the Al2O3 AR coat⁃ing,the Y_(2)O_(3)AR coating exhibits higher catastrophic optical mirror damage(COMD)level,and the optical facet coatings of both material systems have no beam steering effect.A 3-mm-long,9.5-μm-wide buried-heterostruc⁃ture(BH)LWIR QCL ofλ~8.5μm with Y_(2)O_(3)metallic high-reflection(HR)and AR of~0.2%reflectivity coating demonstrates a maximum pulsed peak power of 2.19 W at 298 K,which is 149%higher than that of the uncoated device.For continuous-wave(CW)operation,by optimizing the reflectivity of the Y_(2)O_(3)AR coating,the maximum output power reaches 0.73 W,which is 91%higher than that of the uncoated device.
文摘GaAs-based nanomaterials are essential for near-infrared nano-photoelectronic devices due to their exceptional optoelectronic properties.However,as the dimensions of GaAs materials decrease,the development of GaAs nanowires(NWs)is hindered by type-Ⅱquantum well structures arising from the mixture of zinc blende(ZB)and wurtzite(WZ)phases and surface defects due to the large surface-to-volume ratio.Achieving GaAs-based NWs with high emission efficiency has become a key research focus.In this study,pre-etched silicon substrates were combined with GaAs/AlGaAs core-shell heterostructure to achieve GaAs-based NWs with good perpendicularity,excellent crystal structures,and high emission efficiency by leveraging the shadowing effect and surface passivation.The primary evidence for this includes the prominent free-exciton emission in the variable-temperature spectra and the low thermal activation energy indicated by the variable-power spectra.The findings of this study suggest that the growth method described herein can be employed to enhance the crystal structure and optical properties of otherⅢ-Ⅴlow-dimensional materials,potentially paving the way for future NW devices.
文摘This paper proposes a novel modified uni-traveling-carrier photodiode(MUTC-PD)featuring an electric field regulation layer:a p-type doped thin layer inserted behind the PD’s n-doped cliff layer.This electric field regulation layer enhances the PD’s performance by not only reducing and smoothing the electric field intensity in the collector layer,allowing photo-generated electrons to transit at peak drift velocity,but also improving the electric field intensity in the depleted absorber layer and optimizing the photo-generated carriers’saturated transit performance.Additionally,the transport characteristics of the peak drift velocity of photogenerated electrons in the device’s collection layer can be used to optimize its parasitic characteristics.The electron’s peak drift velocity compensates for the lost transit time.Thus improving the 3 dB bandwidth of the PD’s photo response.Finally obtains a MUTC-PD with a 3 dB bandwidth of 68 GHz at a responsivity of 0.502 A/W,making it suitable for 100 Gbit/s optical receivers.
文摘It is of great scientific significance to construct a 3D dynamic structural color with a special color effect based on the microlens array.However,the problems of imperfect mechanisms and poor color quality need to be solved.A method of 3D structural color turning on periodic metasurfaces fabricated by the microlens array and self-assembly technology was proposed in this study.In the experiment,Polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)flexible film was used as a substrate,and SiO2 microspheres were scraped into grooves of the PDMS film to form 3D photonic crystal structures.By adjusting the number of blade-coated times and microsphere concentrations,high-saturation structural color micropatterns were obtained.These films were then matched with microlens arrays to produce dynamic graphics with iridescent effects.The results showed that by blade-coated two times and SiO2 microsphere concentrations of 50%are the best conditions.This method demonstrates the potential for being widely applied in the anticounterfeiting printing and ultra-high-resolution display.
文摘The effect of external vibration on the velocity uniformity of the moving mechanism of the angular mir⁃ror translational Fourier transform interferometer(hereinafter referred to as interferometer)can be quantitatively analysed by the interferometer optical range difference velocity stability.The article proposes a more comprehen⁃sive method of analysing the optical range difference velocity uniformity for the reliability of the interferometer ki⁃nematic mechanism under the influence of on-orbit microvibration in the process of space spectroscopy detection.The method incorporates the structural response of the interferometer caused by external excitation into the stabili⁃ty analysis as one of the influencing factors,so as to reflect the reliability of the interferometer in orbit more realis⁃tically,and judge the microvibration criticality that the interferometer can withstand more accurately.At the same time,an optical surface model of the interferometer is established to further theoretically characterise the effect of microvibration on the homogeneity of the interferometric mechanism.The method discussed in the article pro⁃vides a way of thinking for the judgement of the reliability of the mechanism movement under the external excita⁃tion perturbation as well as the research on the optimisation of the mechanism control.
文摘This paper delves into the theoretical mechanisms of the electronic structure and optical properties of aluminum-based semiconductors(AlX,X=N,P,As,Sb)and indium-based semiconductors(InX,X=N,P,As,Sb)as potential materials for optical devices.Band structure calculations reveal that,except for InSb,all other compounds are direct bandgap semiconductors,with AlN exhibiting a bandgap of 3.245 eV.The valence band maximum of these eight compounds primarily stems from the p-orbitals of Al/In and X.In contrast,the conduction band minimum is influenced by all orbitals,with a predominant contribution from the p-orbitals.The static dielectric constant increased with the expansion of the unit cell volume.Compared to AlX and InX with larger X atoms,AlN and InN showed broader absorption spectra in the near-ultraviolet region and higher photoelectric conductance.Regarding mechanical properties,AlN and InN displayed greater shear and bulk modulus than the other compounds.Moreover,among these eight crystal types,a higher modulus was associated with a lower light loss function value,indicating that AlN and InN have superior transmission efficiency and a wider spectral range in optoelectronic material applications.
文摘This study involved a comprehensive investigation aimed at achieving efficient multi-millijoule THz wave generation by exploiting the unique properties of cylindrical GaAs waveguides as effective mediators of the conversion of laser energy into THz waves.Through meticulous investigation,valuable insights into optimizing THz generation processes for practical applications were unearthed.By investigating Hertz potentials,an eigen-value equation for the solutions of the guided modes(i.e.,eigenvalues)was found.The effects of various param-eters,including the effective mode index and the laser pulse power,on the electric field components of THz radia-tion,including the fundamental TE(transverse electric)and TM(transverse magnetic)modes,were evaluated.By analyzing these factors,this research elucidated the nuanced mechanisms governing THz wave generation within cylindrical GaAs waveguides,paving the way for refined methodologies and enhanced efficiency.The sig-nificance of cylindrical GaAs waveguides extends beyond their roles as mere facilitators of THz generation;their design and fabrication hold the key to unlocking the potential for compact and portable THz systems.This trans-formative capability not only amplifies the efficiency of THz generation but also broadens the horizons of practical applications.
文摘For space-borne gravitational wave detection missions based on the heterodyne interferometry principle,tilt-to-length(TTL)coupling noise is an important optical noise source,significantly influencing the accuracy of the measurement system.We present a method for analyzing TTL coupling noise under the joint influence of multiple factors.An equivalent simulated optical bench for the test mass interferometer was designed,and Gaussian beam tracing was adopted to simulate beam propagation.By simulating the interference signal,it can analyze the impact of various factors on the TTL coupling noise,including positional,beam parameters,detector parameters,and signal definition factors.On this basis,a random parameter space composed of multiple influential factors was constructed within a range satisfying the analysis requirement,and the corresponding simulation results from random sampling were evaluated via variance-based global sensitivity analysis.The calculated results of the main and total effect indexes show that the test mass rotation angle and the piston effect(lateral)significantly influence the TTL coupling noise in the test mass interferometer.The analysis provides a qualitative reference for designing and optimizing space-borne laser interferometry systems.
