The diffracted sound field from the transition region of an axisymmetric body was calculated by the geometrical theory of diffraction. The diffraction ray between the source point and the receiving point on the surface of an axisymmetric body was calculated by using the dynamic programming method. Based on the diffracted sound field, a simulation scheme for the noise correlation of the conformal array was presented. It was shown that the normalized pressure of the diffracted sound field from the transition region reduced with the increases of the frequency and the curvature of the ray. The flow noises of two models were compared and a rather optimum fore-body geometric shape was given. Furthermore, it was shown that the correlation of the flow noise in the low frequencies was stronger than that in the high frequencies. And the flow noise received by the acoustic array on the curved surface had a stronger correlation than that on the head plane at the designed center frequency, which is important for sonar system design.展开更多

The clear diffraction pattern is observed to be of asymmetry, involving orders, position and interval of the diffraction spots that are discovered during the light grazing incidence. It is found that the larger the angle of incidence is, the more obvious the asymmetry is. The higher the negative diffraction orders are, the smaller the intervals between spots are. On the contrary~ in the positive region, the higher the diffraction orders are, the larger the spot intervals are. The positive interval is larger than that of the same negative diffraction order. If the incident angle reaches 1.558 rad in the experiment, all positive diffraction orders completely vanish. Based on the mechanism of phase modulation and with the Fourier transform method, the relations between the incident angle and position, interval spaces, and orders of diffraction spots are derived theoretically. The theoretical calculations are compared with the experimental data, and the comparison shows that the theoretical calculations are in good agreement with the experimental measurement.展开更多

Up to now, each order of diffracted light in Raman–Nath diffraction was still considered simply to be just frequency-shifted and to be a plane wave. However, we find that the phase and frequency shifts occur simultaneously and individually in Raman–Nath diffraction. The findings demonstrate that, in addition to the frequency shift, the optical phase of each order of diffracted light is also shifted by the sound wave and fluctuates with the sound wave and is related to the location in the acoustic field from which the diffracted light originates. As a result, the wavefront of each order of diffracted light is modulated to fluctuate spatially and temporally with the sound wave. Obviously, these findings are significant for applications of Raman–Nath diffraction in acousto–optic effect because the optical phase plays an important role in optical coherence technology.展开更多

The expressions of the energy flux distributions of the TE term, the TM term and the diffracted plane wave are also presented. The ratios of the power of the TE and TM terms to that of the diffracted plane wave are examined in the far-field. In addition, the far-field divergence angles of the TE term, the TM term and the diffracted plane wave, which are related to the energy flux distribution, are investigated. The different energy flux distributions of the TE and TM terms result in the discrepancy of their divergence angles. The influences of the linearly polarized angle and the radius of the circular aperture on the far-field divergence angles of the TE term, the TM term and the diffracted plane wave are discussed in detail. This research may promote the recognition of the optical propagation through a circular aperture.展开更多

Taking the Caussian Schell-model vortex beam as a typical example of partially coherent vortex beams, the spatial correlation properties and correlation vortices in the near-field of partially coherent vortex beams diffracted by a rectangle aperture are studied. It is shown that the off-axis displacement, spatial degree of coherence parameter, propagation distance, and the opening factor of the aperture affect the spectral degree of coherence and positions of correlation vortices. With the optimization algorithm, we obtain the symmetric distributing coherent vortex.展开更多

A parameter δθB is defined to refer to ' Bragg angular spectrum width ' of the grating . The importance of this parameter in distinguishing the angular spread range of the deflected beam for different regimes is discussed as well. It is show from the analysis that if the spread angle of the incident beam labelled with δθinc is larger than the ' Bragg witdth of the angular spectrum ' of the grating , the spread angle δθ1 of the deflected beam will equal to δθB ; but if the angular divergence of the incident beam is less than δθB , then δθ1 =δθinc.Experimentally , four kinds of samples with different configurations are investigated by optical method , two of which operate in the regime of δθinc<<δθB and the others correspond to the case in the regime of δθinc >>δθB . The widths of the angular spread of the incident beam and the deflected beam are estimated by measuring the widths of their own acousto - optical diffraction points . It is demonstrated that the experimental results agree with the theoretical results approximately .展开更多

It is shown that the spectrum in the far field is generally different from that at the aperture, i.e., the spectrum in the far field is proportional to the spectrum at the aperture and a spectral modifier, which depends on the central obstruction ratio ε and diffraction angle θ. Detailed numerical calculation results indicate that significant spectral changes take place in the vicinity of zeros of the Airy pattern. It is found that at the critical diffraction angle θc, the spectrum is split into two lines, while at a diffraction angle a little smaller than θc, the spectrum is red-shifted, and at a diffraction angle a little larger than θc, the spectrum is blue-shifted. The influence of the central obstruction ratio on the spectral anomalies is presented.展开更多

The impacts of lattice parameters on the diffracted transmission are calculated in the ranges for lattice pitch from 100 nm to 2000 nm, fill factor from 0.1 to 0.9 and grat- ing height from 100 nm to 1000 rim, respectively. Our simulation results confirm that the lattice pitch is the dominant factor of the diffraction. It determines how many orders of diffraction occur by the 2PhCs. The larger the lattice pitch, the higher the diffraction orders come into play. Moreover, besides the first-order Bragg diffraction, higher diffraction orders from large pitches of PhCs are also beneficial to the light extraction improvement. The higher enhancement factors of the integrated transmission were obtained from a wide range of pitches with micro-scale GaN 2PhCs. Three different diffraction mechanisms through wave vector analysis were used to discuss the simulation results.展开更多

It is shown that, as compared with spatially fully coherent and polychromatic light whose spectral anomalies are induced only by aperture diffraction, the spectral anomalies and spectral switches of partially coherent and polychromatic light depend on the aperture diffraction, spatial correlationβ and bandwidth of the original spectrum. Detailed numerical calculations are made to illustrate the behavior of spectral switches of partially coherent and polychromatic light, and the results for spatially fully coherent and polychromatic light are treated as a special case ofβ=1 and included in our theory.展开更多

The out-of-plane ordered characteristic has been confirmed by the X-ray diffraction, the neutron powder diffraction and the scanning transmission electron microscopy with high-angle angular dark field images. By adjusting the stoichiometric ratio of Mo and V, the 16l site preferentially occupied by relatively larger atom and 4c site by relatively smaller atom have been confirmed. The further first-principle calculation demonstrates the dynamical and thermodynamical stability of Mo_(4)VSiB_(2) o-T2 phase. This work confirms the transition metal occupation strategy of o-T2 phase and enriches the out-of-plane ordered laminated borides family.展开更多

文摘In this paper , the angular spread of the SAW beam diffracted by Bragg grating , denoted by δθ1 ,is analysed based on the equations of the deflection angle and the deflection effciency .

文摘The spectral behavior of polychromatic spatially fully coherent light diffracted by an annular aperture in the far field is studied. It is shown that the spectrum in the far field is generally different from that at the aperture, i.e., the spectrum in the far field is proportional to the spectrum at the aperture and a spectral modifier, which depends on the central obstruction ratio ε and diffraction angle θ. Detailed numerical calculation results indicate that significant spectral changes take place in the vicinity of zeros of the Airy pattern. It is found that at the critical diffraction angle θc, the spectrum is split into two lines, while at a diffraction angle a little smaller than θc, the spectrum is red-shifted, and at a diffraction angle a little larger than θc, the spectrum is blue-shifted. The influence of the central obstruction ratio on the spectral anomalies is presented.

文摘The lattice-parameter effects on the diffracted transmission of GaN square-lattice photonic crystals （2PhC） at the wavelength of 460 nm were studied by using a rigorous coupled wave analysis （RCWA）. The impacts of lattice parameters on the diffracted transmission are calculated in the ranges for lattice pitch from 100 nm to 2000 nm, fill factor from 0.1 to 0.9 and grat- ing height from 100 nm to 1000 rim, respectively. Our simulation results confirm that the lattice pitch is the dominant factor of the diffraction. It determines how many orders of diffraction occur by the 2PhCs. The larger the lattice pitch, the higher the diffraction orders come into play. Moreover, besides the first-order Bragg diffraction, higher diffraction orders from large pitches of PhCs are also beneficial to the light extraction improvement. The higher enhancement factors of the integrated transmission were obtained from a wide range of pitches with micro-scale GaN 2PhCs. Three different diffraction mechanisms through wave vector analysis were used to discuss the simulation results.
文摘Based on the propagation theory of partially coherent light in the space-frequency domain, the anomalous spectral behavior and spectral switches in the far field of partially coherent and polychromatic light diffracted at an aperture are studied. It is shown that, as compared with spatially fully coherent and polychromatic light whose spectral anomalies are induced only by aperture diffraction, the spectral anomalies and spectral switches of partially coherent and polychromatic light depend on the aperture diffraction, spatial correlationβ and bandwidth of the original spectrum. Detailed numerical calculations are made to illustrate the behavior of spectral switches of partially coherent and polychromatic light, and the results for spatially fully coherent and polychromatic light are treated as a special case ofβ=1 and included in our theory.

文摘The deviation caused by acousto-optic tunable filter （AOTF） diffraction in multispectral imaging is ana- lyzed through derivation calculus of the deviation angle. The rotatory polarization of acousto-optic crystal is taken into account in this analysis. The relationships between the polar angle of the incident and the diffracted beams are acquired by using the momentum-matching condition. During the diffraction of the incident beams, far more deviations are induced.

文摘Chemical investigation of the marine-derived fungus Chaetomium globosum HBU-45 led to the discovery of chaeglobol A(1).Its structure was determined by spectroscopic analysis,computational electronic circular dichroism(ECD)/optical rotatory dispersion(ORD)methods,and X-ray crystallography.Compound 1 represents a new skeleton with an uncommon 6/6/6/5/6/5/6/5 octacyclic system,which is presumably biosynthesized via a[4+2]cycloaddition and an enzymatic cyclization.Chaeglobol A(1)exhibited inhibitory activity against B.dothidea by destroying cell membrane integrity and causing oxidative damage within the cells.

文摘This paper examines the effect of Fe addition on the microstructure characterized by scanning electron microscopy/electron backscattered diffraction,neutron diffraction,and synchrotron X-ray tomography and the mechanical properties of Al-Mg-Mn-Fe-Cu alloys.The findings reveal that the microstructures of the alloys consisted of an Al matrix,Al_(6)(FeMn),and Al_(2)CuMg phase particles.The addition of Fe significantly increased the yield strength(YS),and ultimate tensile strength(UTS)of the alloys,while reducing elongation.The transformation of the 3D morphology of the Al_(6)(FeMn)phase from separated and fine particles with Chinese-script morphology to interconnected rod-like structure as Fe content increased from 0.1%to 0.8%.This strengthening effect was attributed to the slip lines being blocked at the vicinity of the inter-connected Fe-rich phase,leading to grain rotation and dislocation density increment around the Fe-rich phase,ultimately improving the strength of the alloys.However,the Fe-rich phases and Al_(2)CuMg phases were found to be prone to cracking under tensile stress,resulting in decreased elongation of the alloys.This study provides a potential application in the design and manufacturing of new non-heat-treatable Al alloys for the automotive industry.

文摘Two novel out-of-plane ordered quaternary borides M'_(4)VSiB_(2) (M'=Nb and Mo) have been synthesized. The out-of-plane ordered characteristic has been confirmed by the X-ray diffraction, the neutron powder diffraction and the scanning transmission electron microscopy with high-angle angular dark field images. By adjusting the stoichiometric ratio of Mo and V, the 16l site preferentially occupied by relatively larger atom and 4c site by relatively smaller atom have been confirmed. The further first-principle calculation demonstrates the dynamical and thermodynamical stability of Mo_(4)VSiB_(2) o-T2 phase. This work confirms the transition metal occupation strategy of o-T2 phase and enriches the out-of-plane ordered laminated borides family.
