文摘In this study,we developed a single-beam optical trap-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS)optofluidic molecular fingerprint spectroscopy detection system.This system utilizes a single-beam optical trap to concentrate free silver nanoparticles(AgNPs)within an optofluidic chip,significantly enhancing SERS performance.We investigated the optical field distribution characteristics within the tapered fiber using COMSOL simulation software and established a MATLAB simulation model to validate the single-beam optical trap's effectiveness in capturing AgNPs,demonstrating the theoretical feasibility of our approach.To verify the particle capture efficacy of the system,we experimentally controlled the optical trap's on-off state to manage the capture and release of particles precisely.The experimental results indicated that the Raman signal intensity in the capture state was significantly higher than in the non-capture state,confirming that the single-beam optical trap effectively enhances the SERS detection capability of the optofluidic detection system.Furthermore,we employed Raman mapping techniques to investigate the impact of the capture area on the SERS effect,revealing that the spectral intensity of molecular fingerprints in the laser-trapping region is significantly improved.We successfully detected the Raman spectrum of crystal violet at a concentration of 10^(−9)mol/L and pesticide thiram at a concentration of 10^(−5)mol/L,further demonstrating the ability of the single-beam optical trap in enhancing the molecular fingerprint spectrum identification capability of the SERS optofluidic chips.The optical trapping SERS optofluidic detection system developed in this study,as a key component of an integrated optoelectronic sensing system,holds the potential for integration with portable high-power lasers and high-performance Raman spectrometers.This integration is expected to advance highly integrated technologies and significantly enhance the overall performance and portability of optoelectronic sensing systems.

文摘An improved model based on you only look once version 8(YOLOv8)is proposed to solve the problem of low detection accuracy due to the diversity of object sizes in optical remote sensing images.Firstly,the feature pyramid network(FPN)structure of the original YOLOv8 mode is replaced by the generalized-FPN(GFPN)structure in GiraffeDet to realize the"cross-layer"and"cross-scale"adaptive feature fusion,to enrich the semantic information and spatial information on the feature map to improve the target detection ability of the model.Secondly,a pyramid-pool module of multi atrous spatial pyramid pooling(MASPP)is designed by using the idea of atrous convolution and feature pyramid structure to extract multi-scale features,so as to improve the processing ability of the model for multi-scale objects.The experimental results show that the detection accuracy of the improved YOLOv8 model on DIOR dataset is 92%and mean average precision(mAP)is 87.9%,respectively 3.5%and 1.7%higher than those of the original model.It is proved the detection and classification ability of the proposed model on multi-dimensional optical remote sensing target has been improved.

文摘Several studies have found that transplantation of neural progenitor cells(NPCs)promotes the survival of injured neurons.However,a poor integration rate and high risk of tumorigenicity after cell transplantation limits their clinical application.Small extracellular vesicles(sEVs)contain bioactive molecules for neuronal protection and regeneration.Previous studies have shown that stem/progenitor cell-derived sEVs can promote neuronal survival and recovery of neurological function in neurodegenerative eye diseases and other eye diseases.In this study,we intravitreally transplanted sEVs derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells(hiPSCs)and hiPSCs-differentiated NPCs(hiPSC-NPC)in a mouse model of optic nerve crush.Our results show that these intravitreally injected sEVs were ingested by retinal cells,especially those localized in the ganglion cell layer.Treatment with hiPSC-NPC-derived sEVs mitigated optic nerve crush-induced retinal ganglion cell degeneration,and regulated the retinal microenvironment by inhibiting excessive activation of microglia.Component analysis further revealed that hiPSC-NPC derived sEVs transported neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory miRNA cargos to target cells,which had protective effects on RGCs after optic nerve injury.These findings suggest that sEVs derived from hiPSC-NPC are a promising cell-free therapeutic strategy for optic neuropathy.

文摘The real-time monitoring of fracture propagation during hydraulic fracturing is crucial for obtaining a deeper understanding of fracture morphology and optimizing hydraulic fracture designs.Accurate measurements of key fracture parameters,such as the fracture height and width,are particularly important to ensure efficient oilfield development and precise fracture diagnosis.This study utilized the optical frequency domain reflectometer(OFDR)technique in physical simulation experiments to monitor fractures during indoor true triaxial hydraulic fracturing experiments.The results indicate that the distributed fiber optic strain monitoring technology can efficiently capture the initiation and expansion of fractures.In horizontal well monitoring,the fiber strain waterfall plot can be used to interpret the fracture width,initiation location,and expansion speed.The fiber response can be divided into three stages:strain contraction convergence,strain band formation,and postshutdown strain rate reversal.When the fracture does not contact the fiber,a dual peak strain phenomenon occurs in the fiber and gradually converges as the fracture approaches.During vertical well monitoring in adjacent wells,within the effective monitoring range of the fiber,the axial strain produced by the fiber can represent the fracture height with an accuracy of 95.6%relative to the actual fracture height.This study provides a new perspective on real-time fracture monitoring.The response patterns of fiber-induced strain due to fractures can help us better understand and assess the dynamic fracture behavior,offering significant value for the optimization of oilfield development and fracture diagnostic techniques.
文摘Soft polymer optical fiber(SPOF)has shown great potential in optical-based wearable and implantable biosensors due to its excellent mechanical properties and optical guiding characteristics.However,the multimodality characteristics of SPOF limit their integration with traditional fiber optic sensors.This article introduces for the first time a flexible fiber optic vibration sensor based on laser interference technology,which can be applied to vibration measurement under high stretch conditions.This sensor utilizes elastic optical fibers made of polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)as sensing elements,combined with phase generating carrier technology,to achieve vibration measurement at 50−260 Hz within the stretch range of 0−42%.

文摘Optical singularities are topological defects of electromagnetic fields;they include phase singularity in scalar fields,polarization singularity in vector fields,and three-dimensional(3D)singularities such as optical skyrmions.The exploitation of photonic microstructures to generate and manipulate optical singularities has attracted wide research interest in recent years,with many photonic microstructures having been devised to this end.Accompanying these designs,scattered phenomenological theories have been proposed to expound the working mechanisms behind individual designs.In this work,instead of focusing on a specific type of microstructure,we concentrate on the most common geometric features of these microstructures—namely,symmetries—and revisit the process of generating optical singularities in microstructures from a symmetry viewpoint.By systematically employing the projection operator technique in group theory,we develop a widely applicable theoretical scheme to explore optical singularities in microstructures with rosette(i.e.,rotational and reflection)symmetries.Our scheme agrees well with previously reported works and further reveals that the eigenmodes of a symmetric microstructure can support multiplexed phase singularities in different components,such as out-of-plane,radial,azimuthal,and left-and right-handed circular components.Based on these phase singularities,more complicated optical singularities may be synthesized,including C points,V points,L lines,Néel-and bubble-type optical skyrmions,and optical lattices,to name a few.We demonstrate that the topological invariants associated with optical singularities are protected by the symmetries of the microstructure.Lastly,based on symmetry arguments,we formulate a so-called symmetry matching condition to clarify the excitation of a specific type of optical singularity.Our work establishes a unified theoretical framework to explore optical singularities in photonic microstructures with symmetries,shedding light on the symmetry origin of multidimensional and multiplexed optical singularities and providing a symmetry perspective for exploring many singularity-related effects in optics and photonics.

文摘Object imaging beyond the direct line of sight is significant for applications in robotic vision,remote sensing,autonomous driving,and many other areas.Reconstruction of a non-line-of-sight(NLOS)screen is a complex inverse problem that comes with ultrafast time-resolved imager requirements and substantial computational demands to extract information from the multi-bounce scattered light.Consequently,the echo signal always suffers from serious deterioration in both intensity and shape,leading to limited resolution and image contrast.Here,we propose a concept of vectorial digitelligent optics for high-resolution NLOS imaging to cancel the wall’s scattering and refocus the light onto hidden targets for enhanced echo.In this approach,the polarization and wavefront of the laser spot are intelligently optimized via a feedback algorithm to form a near-perfect focusing pattern through a random scattering wall.By raster scanning the focusing spot across the object’s surface within the optical-memory-effect range of the wall,we obtain nearly diffraction-limited NLOS imaging with an enhanced signal-to-noise ratio.Our experimental results demonstrate a resolution of 0.40 mm at a distance of 0.35 m,reaching the diffraction limit of the system.Furthermore,we demonstrate that the proposed method is feasible for various complex NLOS scenarios.Our methods may open an avenue for active imaging,communication,and laser wireless power transfer.
文摘Position sensitive device(PSD)sensor is a vital optical element that is mainly used in tracking systems for visible light communication(VLC).Recently,a new reconfigurable PSD architecture emerged.The proposed architecture makes the PSD perform more functions by modifying its architecture.As the PSD is mainly formed of an array of photodiodes.The primary concept involves employing transistors to alternate between the operating modes of the photodiodes(photoconductive and photovoltaic).Additionally,alternating among output pins can be done based on the required function.This paper presents the mathematical modeling and simulation of a reconfigurable-multifunctional optical sensor which can perform energy harvesting and data acquisition,as well as positioning,which is not available in the traditional PSDs.Simulation using the MATLAB software tool was achieved to demonstrate the modeling.The simulation results confirmed the validity of the mathematical modeling and proved that the modified sensor architecture,as depicted by the equations,accurately describes its behavior.The proposed sensor is expected to extend the battery's lifecycle,reduce its physical size,and increase the integration and functionality of the system.The presented sensor might be used in free space optical(FSO)communication like cube satellites or even in underwater wireless optical communication(UWOC).

文摘Retinal ganglion cells,a crucial component of the central nervous system,are often affected by irreversible visual impairment due to various conditions,including trauma,tumors,ischemia,and glaucoma.Studies have shown that the optic nerve crush model and glaucoma model are commonly used to study retinal ganglion cell injury.While these models differ in their mechanisms,both ultimately result in retinal ganglion cell injury.With advancements in high-throughput technologies,techniques such as microarray analysis,RNA sequencing,and single-cell RNA sequencing have been widely applied to characterize the transcriptomic profiles of retinal ganglion cell injury,revealing underlying molecular mechanisms.This review focuses on optic nerve crush and glaucoma models,elucidating the mechanisms of optic nerve injury and neuron degeneration induced by glaucoma through single-cell transcriptomics,transcriptome analysis,and chip analysis.Research using the optic nerve crush model has shown that different retinal ganglion cell subtypes exhibit varying survival and regenerative capacities following injury.Single-cell RNA sequencing has identified multiple genes associated with retinal ganglion cell protection and regeneration,such as Gal,Ucn,and Anxa2.In glaucoma models,high-throughput sequencing has revealed transcriptomic changes in retinal ganglion cells under elevated intraocular pressure,identifying genes related to immune response,oxidative stress,and apoptosis.These genes are significantly upregulated early after optic nerve injury and may play key roles in neuroprotection and axon regeneration.Additionally,CRISPR-Cas9 screening and ATAC-seq analysis have identified key transcription factors that regulate retinal ganglion cell survival and axon regeneration,offering new potential targets for neurorepair strategies in glaucoma.In summary,single-cell transcriptomic technologies provide unprecedented insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying optic nerve injury,aiding in the identification of novel therapeutic targets.Future researchers should integrate advanced single-cell sequencing with multi-omics approaches to investigate cell-specific responses in retinal ganglion cell injury and regeneration.Furthermore,computational models and systems biology methods could help predict molecular pathways interactions,providing valuable guidance for clinical research on optic nerve regeneration and repair.

文摘The optical soliton characteristics of GaSb-based~2μm wavelength integrated optical chips have broad application prospects in optoelectronic fields such as optical communications,infrared countermeasures,and gas environment monitoring.In the research of two-section integrated optical chips,more attention is paid to their passive mode-locked characteristics.The ability of its structure to generate stable soliton transmission has not yet been studied,which will limit its further application in high-performance near-mid infrared optoelectronic technology.In this paper,we design and prepare a GaSb-based~2μm wave-length two-section integrated semiconductor laser chip structure,and test and analyze its related properties of soliton,includ-ing power−injection current−voltage(P−I−V),temperature and mode-locked characteristics.Experimental results show that the chip can achieve stable mode-locked operation at nearly~2μm wavelength and present the working characteristics of near opti-cal soliton states and multi-peak optical soliton states.By comparing and analyzing the measured optical pulse sequence curve with the numerical fitting based on the pure fourth order soliton approximation solution,it is confirmed that the two-section integrated optical chip structure can generate stable transmission of multi-peak optical soliton.This provides a research direc-tion for developing near-mid infrared mode-locked integrated optical chips with high-performance property of optical soliton.

文摘Multi-band optical networks are a potential technology for increasing network capacity.However,the strong interference and non-uniformity between wavelengths in multi-band optical networks have become a bottleneck restricting the transmission capacity of multi-band optical networks.To overcome these challenges,it is particularly important to implement optical power optimization targeting wavelength differences.Therefore,based on the generalized Gaussian noise model,we first formulate an optimization model for the problems of routing,modulation format,wavelength,and power allocation in C+L+S multi-band optical networks.Our objective function is to maximize the average link capacity of the network while ensuring that the Optical Signal-to-Noise(OSNR)threshold of the service request is not exceeded.Next,we propose a NonLinear Interferenceaware(NLI-aware)routing,modulation format,wavelength,and power allocation algorithm.Finally,we conduct simulations under different test conditions.The simulation results indicate that our algorithm can effectively reduce the blocking probability by 23.5%and improve the average link capacity by 3.78%in C+L+S multi-band optical networks.
