By thoroughly analyzing parametric down-conversion(PDC), we put forward a model to directly describe the spatial-spectral distribution of these photon pairs, which is experimentally demonstrated by a 532-nm pumped type-I PDC in a beta barium borate(BBO) crystal. The measured spectral curves show good agreement with the theoretical predictions over the entire spectral range. We further demonstrate that, as signal wavelength increases, the photon pairs are initially spectrally distinguishable, then partly indistinguishable, finally completely indistinguishable with a maximum bandwidth of approximately 500 nm. Utilizing photon-number-resolving single-photon detectors(SPD), we observe the average photon number decreases significantly more slowly than the spectral intensity as the wavelength deviates from the peak, and the photon numbers follow a quasi-Poisson distribution well for wavelengths around the peak, but a thermal distribution better describes the statistics near the spectral boundaries. Finally,we use the signal photons as the trigger to generate heralded Fock states up to 10 photons in near-infrared range, which are suitable for quantum simulation and quantum key distribution in optical fiber networks.展开更多

By means of this invariant and the Lewis-Riesenfeld quantum invariant theory, we obtain closed formulae of the quantum state and the evolution operator of the system. We show that the time evolution of the quantum system directly leads to production of various generalized one- and two-mode combination squeezed states, and the squeezed effect is independent of the driving term of the Hamiltonian. In some special cases, the current solution can reduce to the results of the previous works.展开更多

A general mathematical model for evaluating the spectral properties is developed to obtain the spectrum shape and range of down-converted photons. The model takes into account the effects of phase mismatching due to non-ideal pumping and the relationship between crystal periodic modulation function and the incidence angle of the pump beam. The spectrum curve shape is determined by the discrete Fourier transform of a Gaussian pump beam and the integration of parametric down-conversion generated by an individual plane wave. An experiment is carried out with a PPLN non-linear crystal and dispersing optics, which shows a good consistency in their spectral ranges and shapes with our model predictions within the spectrum of 600–633 nm. This therefore illustrates that both the simulation model and the experimental process are reasonable. This novel method has potential applications in high-accuracy calibration in the wide spectrum using correlated photons.展开更多

文摘The aim of this paper is to explore the effect of geometrical parameters on ultimate load-carrying capacity of a circular hollow section(CHS)X-joint under axial compression of the brace end.First of all,finite element(FE)model to calculate ultimate load-carrying capacity of the CHS X-joint subjected to uniaxial load of the brace is constructed,and the calculated load–displacement curves are compared to the experimental ones.After validation of the FE model,46080 groups of FE calculation models with different geometrical parameters are generated by means of parametric modeling.Subsequently,eight variables including gusset thickness and chord thickness are set as input to predict load-carrying capacity of the CHS X-joint by four machine learning(ML)algorithms,i.e.,Generalized Regression Neural Network,Support Vector Machine,random forest(RF),and Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost).Finally,the constructed ML prediction models are interpreted by SHapley Additive exPlanations,to explore the impact weight of each factor on ultimate load-carrying capacity of the joint.The results show that all the four models can predict the load-carrying capacity of the subject accurately,with all the R2 values greater than 0.97.In addition,RF model yields the minimum mean-square error,Root Mean Squared Error,Mean Absolute Error,and Mean Absolute Percentage Error values,and the greatest R2 value,while the prediction accuracy of XGBoost is relatively worse.Among all the eight considered geometrical parameters,brace diameter has the strongest impact on load-carrying capacity of the joint,followed by chord thickness,chord ring width,chord ring thickness,brace ring width,and brace thickness,while the thicknesses of the gusset plate and brace have marginal influence on load-carrying capacity.The study of the current paper can provide guidelines for dimension design of CHS X-joints.

文摘Meshing temperature analyses of polymer gears reported in the literature mainly concern the effects of various material combinations and loading conditions,as their impacts could be seen in the first few meshing cycles.However,the effects of tooth geometry parameters could manifest as the meshing cycles increase.This study investigated the effects of tooth geometry parameters on the multi-cycle meshing temperature of polyoxymethylene(POM)worm gears,aiming to control the meshing temperature elevation by tuning the tooth geometry.Firstly,a finite element(FE)model capable of separately calculating the heat generation and simulating the heat propagation was established.Moreover,an adaptive iteration algorithm was proposed within the FE framework to capture the influence of the heat generation variation from cycle to cycle.This algorithm proved to be feasible and highly efficient compared with experimental results from the literature and simulated results via the full-iteration algorithm.Multi-cycle meshing temperature analyses were conducted on a series of POM worm gears with different tooth geometry parameters.The results reveal that,within the range of 14.5°to 25°,a pressure angle of 25°is favorable for reducing the peak surface temperature and overall body temperature of POM worm gears,which influence flank wear and load-carrying capability,respectively.However,addendum modification should be weighed because it helps with load bearing but increases the risk of severe flank wear.This paper proposes an efficient iteration algorithm for multi-cycle meshing temperature analysis of polymer gears and proves the feasibility of controlling the meshing temperature elevation during multiple cycles by tuning tooth geometry.

文摘To further enhance the recovery rate of low-temperature waste heat,the low-temperature flue gas in the sinter annular cooler was chosen as the heat source of an organic Rankine cycle(ORC)system,and the comprehensive evaluation of energy,exergy and economic performance of the ORC system was conducted deeply.The energy,exergy and economic performance models of the ORC system were established,and proper candidate organic working fluids(OWFs)were selected based on the thermo-physical properties of OWF and operating characteristics of ORC system.Then,the effects of ORC crucial parameters on the system energy,exergy and economic performances were evaluated in detail.Finally,the bi-objective optimization based on the genetic algorithm was conducted to analyze the optimal performance of the ORC system under the designed ORC crucial parameters,and the exergy efficiency and electricity production cost were set as the evaluation indexes of parametric optimization.The results indicate that the ORC system with the higher evaporation temperature and lower condensation temperature can obtain the larger system exergy efficiency and smaller electricity production cost.The smaller the superheat degree of OWF and pinch-point temperature difference in the evaporator are,the better the energy and exergy performances of the ORC system are.Under the optimization results,R245fa has the best comprehensive performance with the exergy efficiency of 46.34%and electricity production cost of 0.12123$/kWh among the selected candidate OWFs,which should be preferentially chosen as the OWF of the ORC system.

文摘In this paper,the class of starlike functions of complex order γ(γ∈ℂ−{0})is extended from the case on unit disk U=(z∈C:|z|<1)to the case on the unit ball B in a complex Banach space or the unit polydisk U^(n) in C^(n).Let g be a convex function in U. We mainly establish the sharp bounds of all terms of homogeneous polynomial expansions for a subclass of g-parametric starlike mappings of complex order γ on B (resp.U^(n))when the mappings f are k-fold symmetric, k ∈ N. Our results partly solve the Bieberbach conjecture in several complex variables and generalize some prior works.
文摘We present a study of the ion stopping power due to free and bound electrons in a warm dense plasma.Our main goal is to propose a method of stopping-power calculation expected to be valid for any ionization degree.The free-electron contribution is described by the Maynard–Deutsch–Zimmerman formula,and the bound-electron contribution relies on the Bethe formula with corrections,in particular taking into account density and shell effects.The results of the bound-state computation using three different parametric potentials are investigated within the Garbet formalism for the mean excitation energy.The first parametric potential is due to Green,Sellin,and Zachor,the second one was proposed by Yunta,and the third one was introduced by Klapisch in the framework of atomic-structure computations.The results are compared with those of self-consistent average-atom calculations.This approach correctly bridges the limits of neutral and fully ionized matter.

文摘Supersolidity is a counterintuitive quantum phase of matter where the long-range spatial order of a solid coexists with the frictionless flow characteristic of a superfluid.Recently,evidence of supersolidity has been demonstrated in polariton condensates in III-V photonic crystal microcavities by condensing into a topological bound state in the continuum,offering a new light-matter hybrid platform for exploring such quantum phase.In this work,we propose a theoretical scheme for realizing room-temperature supersolidity based on halide perovskite exciton polaritons operating in the optical parametric oscillation regime.By employing a waveguide microcavity geometry,we confine polariton scattering direction in reciprocal space,enabling controlled momentum selection.Leveraging the intrinsic nonlinear interactions among polaritons,we theoretically demonstrate the spontaneous breaking of both continuous translational symmetry and global phase symmetry,i.e.,the evidence of supersolidity.Furthermore,we identify a tunable phase transition sequence in our system:from a Bose-Einstein condensate to a supersolid phase,and ultimately to an insulating phase,as the nonlinear interaction strength increases.

文摘The spectral properties of entangled photon pairs generated via quasi-phased matching in spontaneous parametric down-conversion are proposed and demonstrated experimentally. A general mathematical model for evaluating the spectral properties is developed to obtain the spectrum shape and range of down-converted photons. The model takes into account the effects of phase mismatching due to non-ideal pumping and the relationship between crystal periodic modulation function and the incidence angle of the pump beam. The spectrum curve shape is determined by the discrete Fourier transform of a Gaussian pump beam and the integration of parametric down-conversion generated by an individual plane wave. An experiment is carried out with a PPLN non-linear crystal and dispersing optics, which shows a good consistency in their spectral ranges and shapes with our model predictions within the spectrum of 600–633 nm. This therefore illustrates that both the simulation model and the experimental process are reasonable. This novel method has potential applications in high-accuracy calibration in the wide spectrum using correlated photons.
