The effect of noncanonical strength, off-axis distance and vortex sign on spatial correlation singularities in far field is stressed. Furthermore, far-field OAM spectra and densities are also investigated, and the OAM detection and crosstalk probabilities are discussed. The results show that the number of dislocations of SCS always equals the sum of absolute values of topological charges for canonical or noncanonical vortex pairs. Although the sum of the product of each OAM mode and its power weight equals the algebraic sum of topological charges for canonical vortex pairs, the relationship no longer holds in the noncanonical case except for opposite-charge vortex pairs. The changes of off-axis distance, noncanonical strength or coherence length can lead to a more dominant power in adjacent mode than that in center detection mode, which also indicates that crosstalk probabilities of adjacent modes exceed the center detection probability. This work may provide potential applications in OAM-based optical communication, imaging, sensing and computing.展开更多

This approach is motivated through the fact that these functions can be connected with the coherent states of the continuous spectrum, as well as with so-called nu-function.
文摘High-precision refractive index measurement has become a research hotspot in recent years.However,traditional refractive index measurement often adopts intensity detection,whose performance is restricted by the classical detection limit and is thus hard to improve further.In order to break through this limitation,we propose a quantum-enhanced refractive index sensing scheme utilizing even-coherent-state sources in combination with parity detection.In this paper,we analyze the detection performance of the proposed system.Due to the inevitable photon loss in practical applications,the effects of photon loss on resolution and sensitivity are also investigated.Numerical results show that the resolution of the proposed strategy breaks through the Rayleigh limit and achieves super-resolving refractive index measurement.Relative to existing coherent-state schemes,our strategy leads to a twofold resolution improvement.Furthermore,the physical origins of the super-resolution are analyzed.

文摘The photocatalytic reduction of CO_(2)presents a promising avenue for carbon fuel conversion.However,the efficiency of charge utilization remains a critical barrier to industrial applications.In this study,we introduce a tandem design of Bi_(2)WO_(6)-BiOCl with an atomically matched interface,achieving highly efficient photoreduction of CO_(2)to CO.By incorporating WO_(4)^(2-)ions and tuning coordination environment,the(110)facet of BiOCl was in-situ grown on the(200)facet of Bi_(2)WO_(6).Compared to single phases and ball-milling samples,Bi_(2)WO_(6)-BiOCl exhibits a remarkable CO yield of 68.03μmol g^(-1)h^(-1)with a selectivity of 98%.Atomic visualization and coordination analysis confirm the formation of a coherent interface that facilitates charge migration for efficient electron transport.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations and in-situ Fourier transform infrared(FTIR)spectroscopy provide insights into the intrinsic active sites and reaction mechanisms.The proposed lattice engineering strategies offer a new paradigm for the rational design of heterostructures beyond traditional band alignment at the atomic scale.

文摘Phonon coherence can reflect electron‒phonon coupling information and has been proven to modulate electronic states and charge transport.The manipulation of phonon coherence through spacer cation engineering in organic‒inorganic hybrid perovskites(OIHPs)has been extensively demonstrated;however,the underlying structural origin remains elusive at the molecular level.Herein,we present molecular structure and temperature-dependent coherent phonon studies via a combination of sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy(SFG-VS)and transient absorption spectroscopy(TAS).The conformational order of spacer cations dictates the coherent phonon oscillations in 2D OIHPs.Our study further analyzes the static order and dynamic disorder in 2D perovskites.This work provides molecular-level insights into the role of spacer cations in tuning structural order and may provide valuable guidance for advancing emergent optoelecltronics development.
文摘The linear transmission impairments,such as the timing offset(TO),frequency offset(FO),and chromatic dispersion(CD),are major factors of signal degradations in coherent optical fiber communication systems.The estimation and compensation of such impairments play significant roles in the receiver side digital signal processing(DSP)unit.In this paper,we propose to combat the linear impairments systematically(including TO,FO and CD)with a joint timefrequency signal processing by taking the advantage of fractional Fourier transform(FrFT).In view of geometrical analysis,TO/FO induces a shift in time/frequency coordinate and the CD leads to the rotation in the fractional domain.Both mathematical derivations and geometrical interpretations have been established to unveil the relationships between impairments and linear frequency modulated(LFM)training symbols(TSs).By considering a typical coherent optical orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing(COOFDM)transmission system,three kinds of linear impairments have been jointly estimated by simple geometric calculations using appropriately designed TS based on FrFTs.Simulation and experimental results confirmed the feasibility of time-frequency techniques with better accuracy,less complexity,and improved spectral efficiency.

文摘We present a theoretical study of four-wave mixing(FWM)in a degenerate two-level atomic system subject to a magnetic field whose Zeeman sublevels constitute a tripod-type atomic system,which is driven by a linearly polarized field,and coupled and probed by two sets of left and right circularly polarized fields.The optical effects of coherent hole burning(CHB)and electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT)are involved in the coherent system,among which the CHB has much larger response for the FWM than the EITs.Three situations of CHB are involved,and they are the solitary CHB,overlapped CHBs,and an overlap between CHB and EIT.The overlapped CHBs have the greatest magnitude of FWM signal among the three situations.Whereas,for the overlapped CHB and EIT,it has the smallest FWM magnitude,which is no more than one tenth of the former.While for the single CHB,the FWM magnitude is half of that of the overlapped CHBs.It is noted that,in the overlap between CHB and EIT,dual EIAs can be obtained,whose FWM signal also has an enhancement in comparison to no EIA.
