With the SSBC DOEs, the sunlight radiation is divided into several wave bands so as to be effectively absorbed by photovoltaic materials with different band gaps. A new method is proposed for designing high-efficiency SSBC DOEs, which is physically simple, numerically fast, and universally applicable. The SSBC DOEs are designed by the new design method, and their performances are analyzed by the Fresnel diffraction integral method.The new design method takes two advantages over the previous design method. Firstly, the optical focusing efficiency is heightened by up to 10%. Secondly, focal positions of all the designed wavelengths can be designated arbitrarily and independently. It is believed that the designed SSBC DOEs should have practical applications to solar cell systems.展开更多

By regarding the sinusoidal disturb potential as a stationary solu- tion of an initial value problem, and using Laplace transformation method and Tauberian theorem, the boundary value problems of stationary solution of the first and second order diffraction potential have been de- rived in this paper. Furthermore, the explicit solution of the second order stationary diffraction potential has been obtained with the method of the double Fourier transformation. It is found that the asymptotic behaviour of the second order stationary solution at far field is dependent on two wave systems, the first is 'free wave', travelling independently of the first order wave system, the other is 'phase locked waves', which accompany the first order waves. At the same time, the radiation conditions of the second order diffraction problems are derived. We also find that one can still pursue a steady state formulation with the inclusion of Rayleigh damping. Finally, as an example, the second order wave forces upon a fixed vertical cir- cular cylinder have been calculated, and the numerical results agree well with the experimental data.展开更多

Similar approach can also be applied to the collinear interaction. Calculation results indicate that the diffraction efficiency (DE) in magnitude is equal to the mode-conversion efficiency (MCE) under vertical bias magnetic field, but they differ greatly under inclined bias magnetic field. By comparison to the case of vertical magnetization, the DE or the MCE can be greatly increased under inclined magnetic field. The characteristic of the DE curves obtained is basically in agreement with the experimental result.展开更多

The LC SLM is composed of thousands of pixels and the pixel size and shape have effects on the diffractive characteristics of the LC SLM. This paper investigates the pixel effect on the phase of the wavefront with the scalar diffractive theory. The results show that the maximum optical path difference modulation is 41μm to produce the paraboloid wavefront with the peak to valley accuracy better than λ/10. Effects of the mismatch between the pixel and the period, and black matrix on the diffraction efficiency of the LC SLM are also analysed with the Fresnel phase lens model. The ability of the LC SLM is discussed for optical testing and wavefront correction based on the calculated results. It shows that the LC SLM can be used as a wavefront corrector and a compensator.展开更多

Here, we will consider line broadening due to particle size and strain which are the other factors affecting line broadening in a diffraction profile. When line broadening in a diffraction profile is due to particle size and strain, the theoretical model of the sample under study is either a Gaussian or a Cauchy function or a combination of these functions, e.g. Voigt and Pseudovoigt functions. Although the overall nature of these functions can be determined by Mitra’s R(x) test and the Pearson and Hartley x?test, details of a predicted model will be lacking. Development of a mathematical model to predict various parameters before embarking upon the actual experiment would enable correction of significant sources of error prior to calculations. Therefore, in this study, predictors of integral width, Fourier Transform, Second and Fourth Moment and Fourth Cumulant of samples represented by Gauss, Cauchy, Voigt and Pseudovoigt functions have been worked out. An additional parameter, the coefficient of excess, which is the ratio of the Fourth Moment to three times the square of the Second Moment, has been proposed. For a Gaussian profile the coefficient of excess is one, whereas for Cauchy distributions, it is a function of the lattice variable. This parameter can also be used for determining the type of distribution present in aggregates of distorted crystallites. Programs used to define the crystal structure of materials need to take this parameter into consideration.展开更多

文摘A two⁃port encapsulated low⁃contrast grating with suppressed zeroth order under normal incidence is described in this paper.Based on such grating configuration,the improved efficiency and spectral bandwidth of the first order for TE and TM polarizations with a designed period of 1860 nm can be obtained.On the one hand,some of the accurate grating parameters were numerically optimized utilizing a rigorous coupled⁃wave analysis;on the other hand,the inherent physical mechanism suppressing the zeroth order through an encapsulated fused⁃silica grating was adequately interpreted on account of a simplified modal method.Encapsulated grating with a cover layer cannot be simply considered as adding a coating on it.Compared with reported surface⁃relief grating,all parameters of encapsulated grating should be re⁃optimized and the optimized performances of encapsulated grating were greatly improved.Therefore,the encapsulated grating can be potentially applied in writing fiber Bragg gratings.

文摘Conventional nonlinear Raman–Nath diffraction(NRND)spots exhibit a straight-line distribution when the pump laser enters the nonlinear dielectric grating at normal incidence or at oblique incidence.Here,we report on the first observation of the conical NRND phenomenon from a submicron-thick periodically poled lithium niobate thin film(PPLNTF)sample under a near-infrared femtosecond pulse laser excitation at various cone angles.All the multi-order second harmonic generation(SHG)diffraction signals present a novel evolution arc-shaped arrangement feature.

文摘To reduce the cost and achieve high diffraction efficiency, a modified moir@ technique for fabricating a large- aperture multi-level Fresnel membrane optic by a novel design of alignment marks is proposed. The modified moire fringes vary more sensitively with the actual misalignment. Hence, the alignment accuracy is significantly improved. Using the proposed method, a 20 μm thick, four-level Fresnel diffractive polyimide membrane optic with a 200 mm diameter is made, which exhibits over 62% diffraction efficiency into the ＋1 order, and an efficiency root mean square of 0.051.

文摘<正> Jn this paper,a new holographic recording material,nongelatin dichromated holographic film (NGU).is reported.The NGD holograms exhibit stronger real time effect,higher diffraction efficiency,better humidity,stability,stronger surface relief modulation,etc.An experimental study of the influence of electron donors on real time diffraction efficiency (RTDE) of NGD holograms has been earned out,and the anti-humidity mechanism of holograms analysed based on the rracrochemical structure of chelate.The concept that the symmetry of chelate structure is essential for good humidity stability of holograms is suggested.Remarkable is the contrast between NGD and DCG.The latter is another member of dichromated light sensitive systems and used to be considered the best phase holographic recording material However,the holograms of DCG,if not sealed,would decay quickly after several hours at relatively high temperature and humidity

文摘In this paper,we present the electric field controllable diffractive optical elements in strontium-barium niobate single crystals with stable tailored spiral-shaped domain structure and demonstrate the generation of optical beam with orbital angular momentum.The required domain pattern was created in the sample with initial domain structure by electric field application using the photolithographically defined liquid electrode.A series of bipolar triangular electric field pulses were applied to the sample for determination of the optimal parameters for complete polarization switching under the electrode.The stable tailored domain pattern of the spiral shape was created by the application of the unipolar pulse of a special shape.The complete switching under the electrode and partial switching under the photoresist layer have been revealed.The imaging by Cherenkov-type second harmonic generation microscopy confirmed that the created domain structure reaches the opposite polar surface.The imaging of the diffraction pattern of the laser beam passing through a voltage-biased DOE confirmed the formation of the beam with orbital angular momentum.The half-wave voltages of 237V and 302 V for wavelength 632.8 nm and 532 nm,respectively,for 2-mmthick sample were measured.The obtained knowledge can be used for the development of domain engineering methods in strontium-barium niobate single crystals for the creation of tailored domain structures for manufacturing of electric field controllablediffractiveoptical elements.
