Numerical calculations on an AIN/GaN/AIN wurtzite QWW are performed. The results reveal that the dispersions of the QC modes are quite obvious only when the free wavenumber kz in the z-direction and the azimuthal quantum number m are small. The reduced behavior of the QC modes in wurtzite quantum systems is clearly observed. Through the discussion of the electron-QC mode coupling functions,it is found that the lower-frequency QC modes in the high-frequency region play a more important role in the electron-QC phonon interactions. Moreover,our computations also prove that kz and m have a similar influence on the electron-QC phonon coupling properties.展开更多

For the particular LD structure, composed of approximate 4 μm thick n-GaN substrate layer, the maximum optical confinement factor was found to be corresponding to the 5^th order transverse mode, the so-called lasing mode. Moreover, the value of the maximum confinement factor varies periodically when increasing the n-side GaN layer thickness, which simultaneously changes and increases the oscillation mode order of the GaN LD caused by the effects of mode coupling. The effects of the thickness and the average composition of Al in the AlGaN/GaN superlat.tice on the optical confinement factor are also presented. Finally, the mode coupling and optimization of the layers in the GaN-based LD are discussed.展开更多

The analytical phonon states of phonon modes are given. It is found that there exist two types of polar phonon modes, i.e. interface optical (IO) phonon modes and the quasi-confined (QC) phonon modes existing in 1D wurtzite/zinc-blende NWs. Via the standard procedure of field quantization, the Fr6hlich electron-phonon interaction Hamiltonians are obtained. Numerical calculations of dispersive behavior of these phonon modes on a wurtzite/zinc-blende ZnO/MgO NW are performed. The frequency ranges of the IO and QC phonon modes of the ZnO/MgO NWs are analyzed and discussed. It is found that the IO modes only exist in one frequency range, while QC modes may appear in three frequency ranges. The dispersive properties of the IO and QC modes on the free wave-number kz and the azimuthal quantum number m are discussed. The analytical Hamiltonians of electron-phonon interaction obtained here are quite useful for further investigating phonon influence on optoelectronics properties of wurtzite/zinc-blende 1D NW structures.展开更多

Changing the non-magnetic spacer thickness is an effective way to control the interlayer coupling type and intensity, as well as the FMR frequency. In this study, Fe Co B/Ru/Fe Co B sandwich trilayers with Ru thickness(tRu) ranging from 1 A to 16 A are prepared by a compositional gradient sputtering(CGS) method. It is revealed that a stress-induced anisotropy is present in the Fe Co B films due to the B composition gradient in the samples. A tRu-dependent oscillation of interlayer coupling from FM to AFM with two periods is observed. An AFM coupling occurs in a range of 2 A ≤ tRu≤ 8 A and over 16 A, while an FM coupling is present in a range of tRu< 2 A and 9 A ≤ tRu≤ 14.5 A. It is interesting that an ultrahigh optical mode(OM) FMR frequency in excess of 20 GHz is obtained in the sample with tRu= 2.5 A under an AFM coupling. The dynamic coupling mechanism in trilayers is simulated, and the corresponding coupling types at different values of tRuare verified by Layadi’s rigid model. This study provides a controllable way to prepare and investigate the ultrahigh FMR films.展开更多

The calculation is carried out using density functional theory(DFT) within the generalized gradient approximation(GGA) in a plane wave basis, with ultrasoft pseudopotentials. The lattice dynamical properties are calculated using density functional perturbation theory(DFPT) as implemented in Quantum ESPRESSO(QE) code. Thermodynamic properties involving phonon density of states(DOS) and specific heat at constant volume are investigated using quasiharmonic approximation(QHA) package within QE. The phonon dispersion diagrams for InBi, GaBi, BBi, and AlBi indicate that there is no imaginary phonon frequency in the entire Brillouin zone, which proves the dynamical stability of these materials. BBi has the highest thermal conductivity and InBi has the lowest thermal conductivity. AlBi has the largest and GaBi has the smallest reststrahlen band which somehow suggests the polar property of XBi materials. The phonon gaps for InBi, GaBi, BBi and AlBi are about 160 cm^-1, 150 cm^-1, 300 cm^-1, and 150 cm^-1, respectively. For all compounds,the three acoustic modes near the gamma point have a linear behavior. C_V is a function of T-3 at low temperatures while for higher temperatures it asymptotically tends to a constant as expected.展开更多

In this slotted resonator, the mode splitting is generated due to reflection of the slot. Remarkably, effects of the slot width and angular position on the mode splitting are mainly studied. The results reveal that the mode splitting is a second function of the slot width, and the maximum mode splitting induced by the slot deformation is achieved with 2.7853 × 10~9Hz∕nm. Therefore, the slotted resonator is an excellent candidate for pressure and force sensing. Besides, the influence of the slot angular position on the mode splitting is a cosine curve with the highest sensitivity of 1.23 × 10^(11)Hz∕deg; thus, the optical characteristic demonstrates that the slotted resonator can be used for inertial measurements.展开更多

文摘This paper investigates the use of artificial neural networks(ANNs)as a viable digital twin or alternative to the typical whispering gallery mode(WGM)optical sensors in engineering systems,especially in dynamic environments like robotics.Because of its fragility and limited endurance,the WGM sensor which is based on micro-optical resonators is inappropriate in these kinds of situations.In order to address these issues,the paper suggests an ANN that is specifically designed for the system and makes use of the WGM sensor’s high-quality factor(Q-factor).By extending the applicability and endurance to dynamic contexts and reducing fragility problems,the ANN seeks to give high-resolution measurement.In order to minimize post-processing requirements and maintain system robustness,the study goal is for the ANN to function as a representative predictor of the WGM sensor output.The GUCnoid 1.0 humanoid robot is used in the paper as an example to show how the WGM optical sensors may improve humanoid robot performance for a variety of applications.The results of the experiments demonstrate that the sensitivity,precision,and resolution of ANN outputs and actual WGM shifts are equivalent.As a consequence,current obstacles to the widespread use of high-precision sensing in the robotics industry are removed,and the potential of ANNs as virtual substitutes or the digital twin for genuine WGM sensors in robotics systems is validated.So,this paper can be very beneficial not only to the sensing technologies that are used in robotics,which are subjected to the dynamic environments,but also to the industrial automation and human-machine interface.

文摘The increasing amount of data exchange requires higher-capacity optical communication links.Mode division multiplexing(MDM)is considered as a promising technology to support the higher data throughput.In an MDM system,the mode generator and sorter are the backbone.However,most of the current schemes lack the programmability and universality,which makes the MDM link susceptible to the mode crosstalk and environmental disturbances.In this paper,we propose an intelligent multimode optical communication link using universal mode processing(generation and sorting)chips.The mode processor consists of a programmable 4×4 Mach Zehnder interferometer(MZI)network and can be intelligently configured to generate or sort both quasi linearly polarized(LP)modes and orbital angular momentum(OAM)modes in any desired routing state.We experimentally establish a chip-to-chip MDM communication system.The mode basis can be freely switched between four LP modes and four OAM modes.We also demonstrate the multimode optical communication capability at a data rate of 25 Gbit/s.The proposed scheme shows significant advantages in terms of universality,intelligence,programmability and resistance to mode crosstalk,environmental disturbances,and fabrication errors,demonstrating that the MZI-based reconfigurable mode processor chip has great potential in longdistance chip-to-chip multimode optical communication systems.
文摘Guided modes in a hollow optical fiber are investigated using both scalar approximation and exact vectorial analysis. Effective indices of modes are seen to exhibit "nearly degenerate" groups. Besides providing an insight of modal characteristics, the analysis would prove to be useful to define design parameters for realizing components based on these fibers, and to explore new possibilities.

文摘A novel slotted optical microdisk resonator, which significantly enhances light–matter interaction and provides a promising approach for increasing the sensitivity of sensors, is theoretically and numerically investigated. In this slotted resonator, the mode splitting is generated due to reflection of the slot. Remarkably, effects of the slot width and angular position on the mode splitting are mainly studied. The results reveal that the mode splitting is a second function of the slot width, and the maximum mode splitting induced by the slot deformation is achieved with 2.7853 × 10~9Hz∕nm. Therefore, the slotted resonator is an excellent candidate for pressure and force sensing. Besides, the influence of the slot angular position on the mode splitting is a cosine curve with the highest sensitivity of 1.23 × 10^(11)Hz∕deg; thus, the optical characteristic demonstrates that the slotted resonator can be used for inertial measurements.
文摘A wavelength filter with simple structure using multimode waveguide is proposed. The device uses mode conversion by a grating structure fabricated simultaneously with the multimode waveguide.
文摘Overcoming the diffraction limit in optics is challenging and demands a profound understanding of light behavior under extreme confinement.The newly developed framework,termed singulonics,demonstrates the formation of sub-diffraction limit narwhal-shaped optical modes under specific conditions.Experimental implementation of this field confinement within a tiny sub-wavelength volume enables the acquisition of near-field super resolution images.
