Hongju Guo, Lichun Wang, Yueping Niu, Shiqi Jin, and Shangqing Gong

By adding a sideband on either hand of the transitions which are originally coupled by a coherent control field and a coherent probe field to disturb the two-photon resonance, bistability occurs due to two-channel interference. Increasing the sideband Rabi frequency leads to the switching from bistability to tristability. When the sideband simultaneously couples with both hands, we can easily obtain quadrastability..

The potential energy curves (PECs) of BO molecule, including \sum+ and \prod symmetries with doublet spin multiplicities, are obtained employing multi-reference configuration interaction (MRCI) method and Dunning’s correlation consistent basis sets. The analytical potential energy functions (APEFs) are fitted using theThe potential energy curves (PECs) of BO molecule, including \sum+ and \prod symmetries with doublet spin multiplicities, are obtained employing multi-reference configuration interaction (MRCI) method and Dunning’s correlation consistent basis sets. The analytical potential energy functions (APEFs) are fitted using the Murrell-Sorbie (MS) function and the least square method. Based on the PECs, the spectroscopic constants of the states have been determined and compared with the theoretical and experimental results available to affirm the accuracy and liability of the calculations. The root-mean-square (RMS) errors between the fitted results and the ab initio values are too little in comparison with the chemical accuracy (349.755 cm-1. It is shown that the present APEFs are accurate and can display the interaction between the atoms well. The present APEFs can be used to construct more complicated APEF or do some dynamic investigations..

As a sensor, a minimum refractive index detectivity of 10^{-5} is demonstrated while as a tunable filter, tunability range of few tens of nanometers with 2-nm bandwidth is presented. The optimum design is achieved by maximizing the evanescent field region in the analyte which maximizes the overlap integral. The device can be operated in reflection or transmission modes at normal incidence. It can also be operated at a single wavelength by measuring the angular profile of the light beam..

The numerical study on the performance of large-mode-area (LMA) fibers coiled onto a spool in high power amplifier is carried out as the bend-induced distortion of fiber modes severely affects the output characteristics of amplifier systems. The variations for high-order mode bend distortion with different orientationsThe numerical study on the performance of large-mode-area (LMA) fibers coiled onto a spool in high power amplifier is carried out as the bend-induced distortion of fiber modes severely affects the output characteristics of amplifier systems. The variations for high-order mode bend distortion with different orientations relative to the plane of the fiber bend are observed and shown. Concerning the practical applications, a bend-resistant LMA fiber with the mode area larger than 1000 \mum2 and excellent high-order mode suppression is designed completely by optimizing the refractive index (RI) and dopant profile. The results indicate that a hybrid profile of RI and dopant is the best choice for LMA fiber with coiling..

One is used as an optical inverse Fourier transformation (OIFT) device to transform the initial time-domain data to frequency-domain one at the transmitter and the other as an optical Fourier transformation (OFT) device to recover the data at the receiver. By using the unchanged spectral envelope in linear optical fiber communication, the initial data can be recovered. Through simulations, a 10\times100 Gb/s intensity-modulated direct-detection (IM-DD) dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) system over 2000-km transmission without the compensation for polarization mode dispersion (PMD) and dispersion slope is achieved, which can be used to upgrade the current 10-Gb/s IM-DD system to a 100-Gb/s one directly..

We demonstrate the inherent contrast-enhancement effect at the edges of a transparent object by using a conventional pulsed terahertz imaging setup without additional modification of the system design. We provide both experimental and theoretical evidence suggesting that this effect is a consequence of the frequency-dependent energy loss of the terahertz radiation induced by edge diffraction. The influence of the phase step of the broadband terahertz pulses on the edge contrast is discussed..

Each microactuator consists of two PT arms that are jointed at the free end and connected to an anchor at the fixed end. When a laser beam irradiates one of the arms (called hot arm, and the other is cold arm), light energy is absorbed and converted into heat. The asymmetric thermal expansion of the hot and cold arms results in lateral deflection. Based on conduction heat transfer theory and heat dissipation mechanism, we study the PT effects and establish the theoretical model of PT expansion for the microactuators. The temperature distribution and the linear thermal expansion can be numerically calculated. The analytical solution provides an insight into the operation of the actuators and predicts the performance of the actuators with new designs. A symmetry microactuator and a microswitch as the prototypes have been fabricated and tested. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions and prove the feasibility of the novel PT microactuators..

Frequency-locked states with their winding numbers which form the devil's staircase are observed in this kind of lasers. In the unlocked regions, the output state changes from quasiperiodicity to chaos under increasing modulation index, which demonstrates a different route to chaos from the conventional loss-modulated EDFLs with a single modulation frequency. The chaos output in the dual-frequency loss-modulated EDFLs shows less harmonic components of the modulation frequency in the corresponding power spectrum, indicating the improvement of the randomness of the chaotic signals..

From the experimental results, 47-dBm peak power and 100-ns pulse duration are obtained when the repetition rate of pumping pulses is 100 Hz. The gain of the amplifier is up to 30 dB. It is shown that due to the use of pulsed pumping, pump light emits only when the signal light reaches the amplifier and thus the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) is significantly suppressed..

According to the detecting principle of quadrant avalanche photodiode, the light spot area, the optical intensity distribution, the non-uniformity of response, and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) that affect the linearity of the detector are studied. The light optical spot area and the optical intensity distribution can be adjusted through software. The non-uniformity of response and the SNR are influenced by the noise of the detector. Because the noise is affected by the optical intensity of the incident laser, it is difficult to obtain the law of the linearity caused by noise. When the light spot area and the optical intensity distribution are fixed, the other factors can be measured. With the detector scanned in raster scanning mode, the non-uniformity of response is measured at different SNRs. The linearity of detector is measured by a moving target that can reflect the illuminating laser to the detector in diffuse reflection mode. The nonlinear error of the linearity of detector can be minimized by increasing the SNR..

For W/B4C multilayers with the same design period thickness of 2.5 nm, a real-structure model is used to calculate the variation of reflectivities with N=50, 100, 150, and 200, respectively. Then, these multilayers are fabricated by a direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering system. Their reflectivity and scattering intensity are measured by an X-ray diffractometer (XRD) working at Cu K\alpha line. The X-ray reflectivity measurement indicates that the reflectivity is a function of its bi-layer number. The X-ray scattering measured results show that the interface roughness of W/B4C multilayers increases slightly from layer to layer during multilayer growing. The variation of the reflectivity and interface roughness with bi-layer number is accurately explained by the presented real-structure model..

However, it is quite challenging to evaluate its color appearance by traditional color measurement. A low-cost camera is a highly efficient device for multi-geometry color appearance estimation for pearlescent bottles, which has been achieved through the camera characterization, sample image capturing, and then mathematical transforming from RGB (red, green, and blue) values to color appearance attributes based on the color appearance model of CIECAM02. A tele-spectroradiometer for physical measurement together with visual assessment is applied for comparison with the camera method to evaluate the accuracy of camera predictions and discuss the applicability of CIECAM02. The experimental results indicate that the camera data have strong correlation with the physical measurement and also fit well with visual data except for a slight slope shift existing in lightness due to a divinable psychophysical magnitude variation for spatial-dependent color samples. Hence it is feasible to estimate the color appearance of pearlescent bottles using a digital camera..
