We calculate Stark energy structure pattern of ND3 molecules in an external electric field using the method of matrix diagonalization. We analyze how the voltages that are applied to the ring electrodes affect the depth of the efficient well and the controllability of the distance between the trap center and the surface of the chip. To obtain a better understanding, we simulate the dynamical loading and trapping processes of ND3 molecules in a |J, KM = |1,-1 state by using classical Monte–Carlo method. Our study shows that the loading efficiency of our trap can reach ~ 88%. Finally, we study the adiabatic cooling of cold molecules in our surface trap by linearly lowering the potential-well depth(i.e., lowering the trapping voltage), and find that the temperature of the trapped ND3 molecules can be adiabatically cooled from 34.5 m K to ~ 5.8 m K when the trapping voltage is reduced from-35 k V to-3 k V.展开更多

Numerical simulation by the finite-difference time-domain method shows that the photon absorption capacity of SNSPDs with a composite optical structure can be enhanced significantly by adjusting the parameters of the phase-grating and optical cavity structures at multiple frequency bands. The absorption capacity of the superconducting nanowires reaches 70%, 72%, 60.73%, 61.7%, 41.2%, and 46.5% at wavelengths of 684, 850, 732, 924, 1256, and 1426nm, respectively. The use of a composite optical structure reduces the total filling factor of superconducting nanowires to only 0.25, decreases the kinetic inductance of SNSPDs, and improves the count rates.展开更多

By frequency doubling of 0.8m J, 3Ors Ti:sapphire laser pulses with a BBO crystal, 0.2m J, 33fs laser pulses at 400nm are generated.

The concept of "layer exploration unit" is proposed in the study, and it is defined as an exploration geological unit that has a relatively complete and unified tectonic system, sedimentary system and hydrocarbon migration & accumulation system in a tectonic layer or tectonic sublayer within a fault basin.

The devices using a blend of poly(9,9-dioctylttuorene)(PFO) and 2-(4-biphenyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (PBD) as a host matrix exhibited a maximum luminance efficiency of 11.3 cd/A at 17. 6 mA/cm^2. In contrast, the devices using a blend of poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) and PBD as a host matrix reveal only a peak luminance efficiency of 6.Scd/A at 4.1 mA/cm^2. The significantly enhanced electrophosphorescent emissions are observed in the devices with the PFO-PBD blend as a host matrix. This indicates that choice of polymers in the host matrices is crucial to achieve highly efficient phosphorescent dye-doped PLEDs.展开更多

We calculate Stark energy structure pattern of ND3 molecules in an external electric field using the method of matrix diagonalization. We analyze how the voltages that are applied to the ring electrodes affect the depth of the efficient well and the controllability of the distance between the trap center and the surface of the chip. To obtain a better understanding, we simulate the dynamical loading and trapping processes of ND3 molecules in a |J, KM = |1,-1 state by using classical Monte–Carlo method. Our study shows that the loading efficiency of our trap can reach ~ 88%. Finally, we study the adiabatic cooling of cold molecules in our surface trap by linearly lowering the potential-well depth(i.e., lowering the trapping voltage), and find that the temperature of the trapped ND3 molecules can be adiabatically cooled from 34.5 m K to ~ 5.8 m K when the trapping voltage is reduced from-35 k V to-3 k V.

文摘We demonstrate eftlcient generation of continuous spectrum centered at 40Ohm from solid thin plates. By frequency doubling of 0.8m J, 3Ors Ti:sapphire laser pulses with a BBO crystal, 0.2m J, 33fs laser pulses at 400nm are generated. Focusing the 400-nm pulses into 7 thin fused silica plates, we obtain 0.15mJ continuous spectrum covering 350-450 nm. After compressing by 3 pairs of chirped mirrors, 0. 12 m J, 8.6 fs pulses are achieved. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that sub-10-fs pulses centered at 400nm are generated by solid thin plates, which shows that spectral broadening in solid-state materials works not only at 800nm but also at different wavelengths.

文摘To realize high-efficiency and sustainable exploration of the Jiyang depression at the stage of high exploration degree, a hydrocarbon accumulation-geological evaluation method is developed on the basis of current geologic knowledge and extent of fine exploration. The concept of "layer exploration unit" is proposed in the study, and it is defined as an exploration geological unit that has a relatively complete and unified tectonic system, sedimentary system and hydrocarbon migration & accumulation system in a tectonic layer or tectonic sublayer within a fault basin. Then, an approach to dividing and evaluating the "layer exploration unit" is developed. With this approach, the Jiyang depression is divided into 305 layer exploration units, thus helping realize precise and stereoscopic geological understanding and exploration deployment. Fine splitting of remaining resources and benefit evaluation of exploration targets are conducted by "layer exploration units". As a result, 66 efficient "layer exploration units" in four major areas(i.e. Paleogene upper Es4-Dongying Formation, Neogene Minghuazhen Formation-Guantao Formation, Paleozoic buried-hill, and Paleogene Kongdian Formation-lower Es4) are determined as the targets for obtaining more reserves and breakthroughs in the short and medium term.

文摘A high-power and high-effciency GaAs/A1GaAs-based terahertz (THz) quantum cascade laser structure emitting at 3.3 THz is presented. The structure is based on a hybrid bound-to-continuum transition and resonant-phonon extraction active region combined with a semi-insulating surface-plasmon waveguide. By optimizing material structure and device processing, the peak optical output power of 758mW with a threshold current density of 120 A/cm2 and a wall-plug effciency of 0.92% at 10K and 404mW at 77K are obtained in pulsed operation. The maximum operating temperature is as high as llS K. In the cw mode, a record optical output power of 160roW with a threshold current density of 178A/cm2 and a wall-plug efficiency of 1.32% is achieved at 1OK.
文摘To evaluate the new designed cutting tools for high-efficiency milling of the hardened die steel SKD11,surface integrities of millers with different geometric structures are analyzed, considering the surface roughness, micrograph of chips, surface microhardness, residual stress and metallurgical texture of the surface layer. The in fluences of geometric characteristics of different cutting tools and their wear characteristics on the surface integrity are studied. Results show that the milling tool with rake angle; 5 of the hardened diesteel. The generation of saw-tooth chips is depressed when a reasonable positive rake angle is selected. And the compressive residual stress is induced on the machined surface in milling the hardened die steel. The occurrence of surface softening is postponed by increasing the clearance angle and reducing the tool flank wear.
文摘To select high performance milling tools with optimum geometry structure suitable for machining hardened steel SKD11, geometry structures of tools are optimized. Four kinds of TiAlN coated cemented carbide tools are developed. The milling performance in high-speed milling hardened steel SKD11 by using these four kinds of tools is evaluated through the aspects of cutting force, cutting vibration, chip deformation, tool life, and tool wear mechanism, thus determining the optimum milling tool. The tool life of the optimum tool is 3 times of that of other tool, and the cutting force and vibration decrease by 70% compared with that of other tools. It has the most stable cutting performance.

文摘Polarization is a basic characteristic of electromagnetic waves that conveys much optical information owing to its many states.The polarization state is manipulated and controlled for optical information security,optical encryption,and optical communication.Metasurface devices provide a new way to manipulate wave-fronts of light.A single ultrathin metasurface device can generate and modulate several differently polarized light fields,and thus carries optical information in several different channels.Terahertz(THz)waves have become widely used as carrier waves for wireless communication.Compact and functional metasurface devices are in high demand for THz elements and systems.This paper proposes a tri-layer metallic THz metasurface for multi-channel polarization generation and phase modulation with a high efficiency of approximately 80%.An azimuthally polarized THz vectorial beam generator is realized and characterized for use as a THz polarization analyzer.The incident polarization angle can be observed graphically with high accuracy.Moreover,a vectorial hologram with eight channels for different linear polarization states is demonstrated experimentally.The information in different holograms can be hidden by choosing the polarization channel for detection.This work contributes to achieving multi-functional metasurface in the THz band and can benefit THz communication and optical information security.

文摘Optoelectronic properties of the oxadiazole-functionalized iridium complex-doped polymer light-emitting devices (PLEDs) are demonstrated with two different polymeric host matrices at the dopant concentrations 1-8%. The devices using a blend of poly(9,9-dioctylttuorene)(PFO) and 2-(4-biphenyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (PBD) as a host matrix exhibited a maximum luminance efficiency of 11.3 cd/A at 17. 6 mA/cm^2. In contrast, the devices using a blend of poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) and PBD as a host matrix reveal only a peak luminance efficiency of 6.Scd/A at 4.1 mA/cm^2. The significantly enhanced electrophosphorescent emissions are observed in the devices with the PFO-PBD blend as a host matrix. This indicates that choice of polymers in the host matrices is crucial to achieve highly efficient phosphorescent dye-doped PLEDs.
