The experiments were conducted for voltage ranges from 2.3 to 13 k V. A plasma reactor equipped with two 0.3×0.3 mm^2 mesh electrodes made of acid resistant AISI 304 mesh was used in the experiments. The influence of the dielectric type on the concentration and efficiency of ozone generation was described. The resulting maximum concentration of the ozone was about 2.70–9.30 g O3 m^-3, depending on the dielectrics used. The difference between the maximum and the minimum ozone concentration depends on the dielectric used,this accounts for 70% at the variance. The reactor capacity has also been described in the paper; total Ct and dielectric capacitance Cd depending on the dielectric used and its thickness.展开更多

Fruit color is regarded as one of the most important commercial traits in tomato (The Tomato Genome Consortium, 2012). Consumers in different regions have different color preferences. For example, European and American consumers prefer red tomatoes, while pink tomatoes are more pop- ular in Asia countries, particularly in China and Japan (Ballester et al., 2010; Lin et al., 2014). However, most of tomato breeding ma- terials are red-fruited, thus the generation of pink-fruited materials is very important for Asian tomato production. Metabolomics and genetics studies demonstrate that the pink trait results from the absence of yellow-colored flavonoid naringenin chalcone (NarCh) in the peels,and is controlled by the monogenic recessive yellow(y)lOCUS(Adato et a1..2009;Ballester et a1..2OLO).展开更多

A WRP closed to the parallax image plane is introduced to record the complex amplitude in a small region for each point in the parallax image. By using three times of fast Fourier transform (FFT) to execute the Fresnel dif- fraction calculation between the WRP and the holographic stereogram plane, the object wave contributing to the hologram pattern can be achieved. The computation complexity of the proposed approach is dramatically reduced. The results show that the calculation time can be decreased by more than one order of magnitude.展开更多

A monolithic tandem lithium niobate superlattice was employed as the nonlinear crystal with a uniform grating section for the DFG process, followed by a chirp section for the optical parametric amplification process. The impacts of pump pulse shape, primary signal power, input beam diameter, and crystal structure on the pump-to-idler conversion efficiency of the AA-DFG system were comprehensively studied by numerically solving the coupled wave equations. It is concluded that square pump pulse and high primary signal power are beneficial to high pump-to-idler conversion efficiency. In addition, tighter input beam focus and smaller DFG length proportion could redeem the reduction in conversion efficiency resulting from wider acceptance bandwidths for the input lasers. We believe that such systems combining the merits of high stability inherited from cavity-free configuration and high efficiency attributed from the cascaded nonlinear conversion should be of great interest to a wide community,especially when the pulse shaping technique is incorporated.展开更多

文摘For offshore hydraulic drive wind turbines,the problems of unsatisfactory speed control and low efficiency at low wind speeds are targeted.A low-speed high-torque radial piston pump is designed to replace the traditional fixed pump with a particular focus on its low-speed performance.The pump is characterized by small internal leakage at low wind speeds and high volumetric efficiency,which is beneficial to improve the power generation efficiency of the system.A new linear control method based on the PID algorithm and feedforward compensation was proposed to obtain the constant speed output control of variable motor at low wind speed.With the model for wind turbine and fixed pump-variable motor main drive system,the system was simulated and experimentally proved to verify the feasibility and anti-interference performance of the system control method at low wind speeds.A promising outcome was obtained on the response characteristics of system power and efficiency at low wind speeds.This can be a powerful technical support for the normal ustility of hydraulic drive wind turbines.

文摘Nonlinear metasurfaces and photonic crystals provide a significant way to generate and manipulate nonlinear signals owing to the resonance-and symmetry-based light-matter interactions supported by the artificial structures.However,the nonlinear conversion efficiency is generally limited by the angular dispersion of optical resonances especially in nonparaxial photonics.Here,we propose a metagrating realizing a quasi-bound-state in the continuum in a flat band to dramatically improve the third harmonic generation(THG)efficiency.A superior operating angular range is achieved based on the interlayer and intralayer couplings,which are introduced by breaking the mirror symmetry of the metagrating.We demonstrate the relation of angular dispersion between the nonlinear and linear responses at different incident angles.We also elucidate the mechanism of these offaxis flat-band-based nonlinear conversions through different mode decomposition.Our scheme provides a robust and analytical way for nonparaxial nonlinear generation and paves the way for further applications such as wide-angle nonlinear information transmission and enhanced nonlinear generation under tight focusing.

文摘Infrared(IR)nonlinear optical(NLO)materials have attracted tremendous interest for civil and military applications,but it remains a great contemporary challenge to develop high-effciency NLO crystals that possess suffciently high second-harmonic generation(SHG)effciencies coupled to wide transparency ranges and high laser damage thresholds.A series of new hydrous rare-earth iodates RE(IO_(3))_(3)·(H_(2)O)(RE=Y 1,Eu 2)and La_(2)(IO_(3))_(6)(H_(2)O)(3)have been synthesized through facile hydrothermal methods.1 and 2 are isostructural,crystallizing in the polar space group P21,while 3 crystallizes in the polar space group Pc.1-3 feature three-dimensional(3D)frameworks composed of alternately connected corner-shared dis torted[REO_(x)]polyhedra(RE=Y,Eu,and La;x=8,9)and[IO_(3)]^(−)groups.Optical studies showed that 1–3 exhibit good NLO properties,including strong SHG intensities(3.0×(1),4.5×(2),and 1.5×KH_(2)PO_(4)(3)),large band gaps(4.12(1),4.36(2),and 4.24 eV(3),with 2 possessing the largest band gap among the known SHG-active rare-earth-based iodates,high laser damage thresholds(LDT)(53×(1),43×(2),and 44×AgGaS_(2)(3)),and wide transparency ranges(ca.3.0–11.3μm)in the mid-IR region covering two criti cal IR transparency windows;1–3 are therefore potential candidate NLO materials.Density functional theory calculations on 1–3 confirm that their strong SHG responses and large band gaps are mainly derived from the synergistic effect of[IO_(3)]^(−)groups and rare-earth oxide polyhedra[REOx]in their 3D frameworks.We conclude that the introduction of rare-earth cations with moderate electropositivity into iodates may optimize the balance between SHG effciency and optical band gaps,the key requirement for high-performance NLO materials for practical applications.

文摘In the quest for organic–inorganic metal halides(OIMHs)that harmoniously combine large second harmonic generation(SHG)efficiency with broad bandgaps,our study introduces a series of noncentrosymmetric and polar piperazine zinc halides,(C_(4)H_(11)N_(2))ZnX_(3)(X=Cl,Br,I).The distinct influence of halide anion size on the configuration of ZnNX_(3)tetrahedra is uncovered,revealing a design principle for enhancing SHG activity and manipulating bandgap characteristics.Specifically,(C_(4)H_(11)N_(2))ZnCl_(3)is the first example of deep-ultraviolet(deep-UV)nonlinear optical(NLO)OIMHs,with UV transparency lower than 190 nm and moderate SHG effect,0.8 times KH_(2)PO_(4)(KDP).Meanwhile,compared with(C_(4)H_(11)N_(2))ZnI_(3)(2.1 times KDP,4.52 eV),(C_(4)H_(11)N_(2))ZnBr_(3)boasts a widened bandgap of 5.53 eV while maintaining a striking SHG response(2.5 times KDP),representing a pinnacle in the SHG-bandgap balance among OIMHs with Eg exceeding 5.0 eV.Computational analyses underscore the critical roles of halide orbitals and ZnNX_(3)distortions in dictating SHG efficiency,with increasing halide polarizability correlating with heightened SHG contributions.This study paves the way for a novel approach to designing short-UV NLO crystals based on OIMHs.

文摘A computer generated holographic stereogram based on the wavefront recording plane (WRP) is presented. A WRP closed to the parallax image plane is introduced to record the complex amplitude in a small region for each point in the parallax image. By using three times of fast Fourier transform (FFT) to execute the Fresnel dif- fraction calculation between the WRP and the holographic stereogram plane, the object wave contributing to the hologram pattern can be achieved. The computation complexity of the proposed approach is dramatically reduced. The results show that the calculation time can be decreased by more than one order of magnitude.

文摘We systematically study the optimization of highly efficient terahertz(THz) generation in lithium niobate(LN)crystal pumped by 800 nm laser pulses with 30 fs pulse duration. At room temperature, we obtain a record optical-to-THz energy conversion efficiency of 0.43% by chirping the pump laser pulses. Our method provides a new technique for producing millijoule THz radiation in LN via optical rectification driven by joule-level Ti:sapphire laser systems, which deliver sub-50-fs pulse durations.

文摘We report the investigation on the performance of an amplification assisted difference frequency generation(AA-DFG) system driven by pulsed pump and continuous-wave primary signal lasers. A monolithic tandem lithium niobate superlattice was employed as the nonlinear crystal with a uniform grating section for the DFG process, followed by a chirp section for the optical parametric amplification process. The impacts of pump pulse shape, primary signal power, input beam diameter, and crystal structure on the pump-to-idler conversion efficiency of the AA-DFG system were comprehensively studied by numerically solving the coupled wave equations. It is concluded that square pump pulse and high primary signal power are beneficial to high pump-to-idler conversion efficiency. In addition, tighter input beam focus and smaller DFG length proportion could redeem the reduction in conversion efficiency resulting from wider acceptance bandwidths for the input lasers. We believe that such systems combining the merits of high stability inherited from cavity-free configuration and high efficiency attributed from the cascaded nonlinear conversion should be of great interest to a wide community,especially when the pulse shaping technique is incorporated.

文摘We demonstrate the generation of non-classical photon pairs in a warm S-Rb atomic vapor ('ell with no buffer gas or polarization preserving coatings via spontaneous four-wave mixing. We obtain the photon pairs with a 1/e correlation time of 40 ns and the violation of Cauchy-Sehwartz inequality by a factor of 23 - 3. This provides a convenient and efficient method to generate photon pair sources based on an atomic ensemble.
