An...High-entropy alloys （HEAs） usually contain more than five alloying elements. The ductility of a body-centered cubic （bcc）- type HEA typically is lower than that of their face-centered cubic （fcc） counterpart. And low ductility restricts engineering applications of the bcc-structured HEAs. In engineering materials, improvement in ductility usually results in deduction of mechanical strength. A method to improve both mechanical strength and ductility in a bcc-structured HEA was proposed by adding interstitial carbon. Experimental results showed that replacement of 5 at.% Cr with 5 at.% C in a bcc-structured Fe35Mn25Al15Cr10Ni15 HEA resulted in an increase in fcc phase from 0.3 to 93.7 vol.%. Strength and ductility increased at the same time. The transition of bcc-structure to fcc-structure along with a remaining small amount of bcc phase improved mechanical properties. This work indicates that interstitial carbon can be employed to modulate the fraction of constituent phases in a bcc-structured HEA to enhance engineering mechanical properties.展开更多

The results...This paper investigates the effects of walk-off among optical pulses on cross-phase modulation induced modulation instability in the normal dispersion region of an optical fibre with high-order dispersion. The results indicate that, in the case of high-order dispersion, the walk-off effect takes on new characteristics and will influence considerably the shape, position and especially the number of the spectral regions of the gain spectra of modulation instability. Not only the group-velocity mismatch, but also the difference of the third-order dispersion of two optical waves will alter the gain spectra of modulation instability but in different ways. Depending on the values of the walk-off parameters, the number of the spectral regions may increase from two to at most four, and the spectral shape and position may change too.展开更多

文摘High-entropy alloys （HEAs） usually contain more than five alloying elements. The ductility of a body-centered cubic （bcc）- type HEA typically is lower than that of their face-centered cubic （fcc） counterpart. And low ductility restricts engineering applications of the bcc-structured HEAs. In engineering materials, improvement in ductility usually results in deduction of mechanical strength. A method to improve both mechanical strength and ductility in a bcc-structured HEA was proposed by adding interstitial carbon. Experimental results showed that replacement of 5 at.% Cr with 5 at.% C in a bcc-structured Fe35Mn25Al15Cr10Ni15 HEA resulted in an increase in fcc phase from 0.3 to 93.7 vol.%. Strength and ductility increased at the same time. The transition of bcc-structure to fcc-structure along with a remaining small amount of bcc phase improved mechanical properties. This work indicates that interstitial carbon can be employed to modulate the fraction of constituent phases in a bcc-structured HEA to enhance engineering mechanical properties.

文摘A reduced state Soft Input Soft Output (SISO) a posteriori probability algorithm for Seri-ally Concatenated Continuous Phase Modulation (SCCPM) is proposed in this paper. Based on the Reduced State Sequence Detection (RSSD),it has more general form compared with other reduced state SISO algorithms. The proposed algorithm can greatly reduce the state number,thus leads to the computation complexity reduction. It also minimizes the degradation in Euclidean distance with decision feedback in the reduced state trellis. Analysis and simulation results show that the perform-ance degradation is little with proper reduction scheme.

文摘Modulation recognition becomes unreliable at low signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)over fading channel.A novel method is proposed to recognize the digital modulated signals with frequency and phase offsets over multi-path fading channels in this paper.This method can overcome the effects of phase offset,Gaussian noise and multi-path fading.To achieve this,firstly,the characteristic parameters search is constructed based on the cyclostationarity of received signals,to overcome the phase offset,Gaussian white noise,and influence caused by multi-path fading.Then,the carrier frequency of the received signal is estimated,and the maximum characteristic parameter is searched around the integer multiple carriers and their vicinities.Finally,the modulation types of the received signal with frequency and phase offsets are classified using decision thresholds.Simulation results demonstrate that the performance of the proposed method is better than the traditional methods when SNR is over 5dB,and that the proposed method is robust to frequency and phase offsets over multipath channels.

文摘This paper proposes a new information modulation resorting to orthogonal signal and its phase for dual-function radar communication(DFRC)systems.Focusing on the standardized linear frequency modulation(LFM)signal by additional phase,a bank of signals enjoying satisfactory autocorrelation and cross-correlation characteristics,are generated.Then,these signals map the different information as well as their phases are also modulated to increase the communication bit rate,thus yielding a series of dual-use signals.Finally,the radar detection and communication performance of dual-use signals are also provided through numerical simulation and half-physical platform verification,confirming the effectiveness of the designed signals compared with the existing design strategy.

文摘Maintaining the s-polarization state of laser beams is important to achieve high modulation depth in a laser-interference-based super-resolution structured illumination microscope(SR-SIM).However,the imperfect optical components can depolarize the laser beams hence degenerating the modulation depth.Here,we first presented a direct measurement method designed to estimate the modulation depth more precisely by shifting illumination patterns with equal phase steps.This measurement method greatly reduces the dependence of modulation depths on the samples,and then developed a polarization optimization method to achieve high modulation depth at all orientations by actively and quantitatively compensating for the additional phase difference using a combination of waveplate and a liquid crystal variable retarder(LCVR).Experimental results demonstrate that our method can achieve illumination patterns with modulation depth higher than 0.94 at three orientations with only one LCVR voltage,which enables isotropic resolution improvement.

文摘Designing novel two-dimensional structures and precisely modulating their second harmonic generation(SHG)attributes are key to advancing nonlinear photonic technologies.In this work,through first-principles calculations,we propose a novel tetrahedral phase of transition metal dichalcogenides(TMDs)and validate its structural feasibility in a family of compounds,i.e.,ZX_(2)(Z=Ti,Zr,Hf;X=S,Se,Te).Cohesive energy and phonon dispersion calculations further demonstrate that eight of nine possible ZX_(2)monolayers are dynamically stable.All the ZX_(2)monolayers exhibit pronounced out-of-plane SHG with nonlinear susceptibility components reaching the order of 10^(2)pm/V.Strain engineering imposes a profound influence on the SHG response of ZX_(2)monolayers by reducing symmetry and modifying nonlinear susceptibility components.The redshift and significant enhancement of the prominent peak in SHG spectra are also revealed due to strain-induced charge redistribution and band gap reduction.Intriguingly,strain-driven nonlinear optical switching effects are realized in the ZX_(2)monolayers,with a reversible switching of SHG component ordering under tensile and compressive strain.In such a case,the anisotropic SHG pattern transforms from fourfold to twofold symmetry under the strain.Our work demonstrates the efficacy of strain engineering in precisely enhancing SHG,paving the way for the integration of novel TMD structures into tunable and flexible nonlinear optical devices.

文摘This paper investigates the effects of walk-off among optical pulses on cross-phase modulation induced modulation instability in the normal dispersion region of an optical fibre with high-order dispersion. The results indicate that, in the case of high-order dispersion, the walk-off effect takes on new characteristics and will influence considerably the shape, position and especially the number of the spectral regions of the gain spectra of modulation instability. Not only the group-velocity mismatch, but also the difference of the third-order dispersion of two optical waves will alter the gain spectra of modulation instability but in different ways. Depending on the values of the walk-off parameters, the number of the spectral regions may increase from two to at most four, and the spectral shape and position may change too.

文摘This letter reports the nanoscale spatial phase modulation of GaAs growth in V-grooved trenches fabricated on a Si （001） substrate by metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy, Two hexagonal GaAs regions with high density of stacking faults parallel to Si {111 } surfaces are observed. A strain-relieved and defect-free cubic phase GaAs was achieved above these highly defective regions. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and fast Fourier transforms analysis were performed to characterize these regions of GaAs/Si interface. We also discussed the strain relaxation mechanism and phase structure modulation of GaAs selectively grown on this artificially manipulated surface.
