Employing a surface plasmon resonance(SPR) based gold nanobipyramids(G-NBPs) saturable absorber,we obtain a compact diode-pumped passively Q-switched Nd, La:SrF_2 laser. The stable Q-switched pulse operates with the shortest pulse duration of 1.15 μs and the maximum repetition rate of 41 k Hz. The corresponding single pulse energy is 2.24 μJ. The results indicate that G-NBPs could be a promising saturable absorber applied to the diode-pumped solid state lasers(DPSSLs).展开更多

According to the diversity in directions, angle structures are defined in local blocks. Combining color information in HSV color space, we use angle structures to detect images. The internal correlations between neighboring pixels in angle structures are explored to form a feature vector. With angle structures as bridges, ASD extracts image features by integrating multiple information as a whole, such as color, texture, shape and spatial layout information. In addition, the proposed algorithm is efficient for image retrieval without any clustering implementation or model training. Experimental results demonstrate that ASD outperforms the other related algorithms.展开更多

A diode-pumped passively Q-switched laser at 1.3 μm wavelength with MXene Ti3C2Tx as saturable absorber was achieved for the first time. The stable passively Q-switched laser has 454 ns pulse width and 162 kHz repetition rate at 4.5 W incident pumped power. The experimental results show that the MXene Ti3C2Tx saturable absorber can be used as an optical modulator to generate short pulse lasers in a solid-state laser field.展开更多

The waveguide is annealed at 200℃, 260℃, and 300℃ in succession each for 30 min in an open oven. The effective refractive index profiles at transverse electric(TE) polarization are stable after the annealing treatments. Damage distribution for multi-energy C ion implanted in Nd:Bi_(12)SiO_(20) crystal is calculated by SRIM 2010. The Raman and fluorescence spectra of the Nd:Bi_(12)SiO_(20) crystal are collected by an excitation beam at 633 nm and 473 nm, respectively. The results indicate the stabilization of the optical waveguide in Nd:Bi_(12)SiO_(20) crystal.展开更多

Its appearance and nonlinear saturable ab- sorption characteristics were also investigated experimentally. SnSz-PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) film was successfully prepared and employed as a mode-locker for achieving a mode-locked Er-doped fiber laser with a pulse width of 623 fs at a pulse repetition rate of 29.33 MHz. The results prove that SnS2 nanosheets will have wide potential ultrafast photonic applications due to their suitable bandgap value and excellent nonlinear saturable absorption characteristics.展开更多

Q-switched pulses with a maximum output power of 0.226 W were obtained at an absorbed pump power of 1.97 W. A repetition rate of 56.20 kHz and a minimum pulse duration of 980 ns were achieved. To the best of our knowledge, we present the first application of Bi-NSs in a mid-infrared all-solid-state laser. The results prove that Bi-NSs may be applied as an optical modulator in mid-infrared photonic devices or as a mode-locker and Q-switcher.展开更多

In order to achieve efficient workload consolidation, the runtime characteristics of a program should be taken into con-sideration in scheduling. In this paper, we propose a novel index system for efficiently describing the program runtime characteristics. With the help of this index system, programs can be classified by the following runtime characteristics: 1) dependence to multi-dimensional resources including CPU, disk I/O, memory and network I/O;and 2) impact and vulnerability to resource sharing embodied by resource usage and resource sensitivity. In order to verify the effectiveness of this novel index system in workload consolidation, a scheduling strategy, Sche-index, using the new index system for workload consolidation is proposed. Experiment results show that compared with traditional least-loaded scheduling strategy, Sche-index can improve both program performance and system resource utilization significantly.展开更多
