摘要： One-dimensional photonic crystals (1D PC) represent a class of periodic optical material, composed of alternating media with different dielectric constants along one direction. The most important property of 1D PCs is their photonic band-gap. However, multiple reflective bands are rarely reported in this research area. In this paper we demonstrate the tunability of multiple reflective bands in conventional 1D PC structure and 1D PC heterostructure. For both two types of 1D PC construction, positions of multiple reflective bands can be regulated under certain principles. In addition, structural color is revealed by transforming reflection spectra into CIE coordinates. It is indicated that the CIE coordinate shifts caused by multiple reflective bands behave quite different compared to those caused by one major photonic band-gap. The two approaches reported in this work may provide insights for the application of 1D PC in areas such as displays, sensors, and decoration.

摘要： The relationships between material constructions and reflective spectrum patterns are important properties of photonic crystals. One particular interesting reflectance profile is a high-intensity and uniform three-peak pattern with peak positions right located at the red, green, and blue (RGB, three original colors) region. For ease of construction, a seek for using one-dimensional photonic crystals to achieve RGB triple reflective bands is a meaningful endeavor. Only very limited previous studies exist, all relying on traditional periodic photonic crystals (PPCs) and of large thickness. The underlying physical principles remain elusive, leaving the question of thickness limit to achieve RGB bands unaddressed. Here, we present the first detailed work to explore the thickness limit issue based on both theoretical and experimental investigation. A set of heuristically derived design principles are used to uncover that the break of translational symmetry, thus introducing heterostructure photonic crystals (HPCs), is essential to reduce the total optical path difference (OPD) to ~ 3200nm (the theoretical limit) while still exhibiting high-quality RGB bands. A systematic experiment based on a 12-layer heterostructure construction was performed and well confirmed the theoretical predictions. The associated three-peak properties are successfully used to realize quantum dot fluorescent enhancement phenomena. Furthermore, the HPC exhibits unusually stability against solvent stimulus, in strong contrast to typical behaviors reported in PPCs. Our work for the first time proposes and verifies important rational rules for designing ultrathin HPCs toward RGB reflective bands, and provides insights for a wider range of explorations of light manipulation in photonic crystals.

摘要： Data-driven methods have increasingly been applied to the development of optical systems as inexpensive and effective inverse design approaches. Optical properties (e.g., band-gap properties) of photonic crystals (PCs) are closely associated with characteristics of their light reflection spectra. Finding optimal PC constructions (within a pre-specified parameter space) that generate reflection spectra closest to a targeted spectrum is thus an interesting and meaningful inverse design problem, although relevant studies are still limited. Here we report a generally effective machine learning-based inverse design approach for one-dimensional photonic crystals (1DPCs), focusing on visible light spectra which are of high practical relevance. For a given class of 1DPC system, a deep neural network (DNN) in a unified structure is first trained over data from sizeable forward calculations (from layer thicknesses to spectrum). An iterative optimization scheme is then developed based on a coherent integration of DNN backward predictions (from spectrum to layer thicknesses), forward calculations, and Monte Carlo moves. We employ this new approach to four representative 1DPC systems including periodic structures with two-, three-, and four-layer repeating units and a heterostructure. The approach successfully converges to solutions of optimal 1DPC constructions for various targeted spectra regardless of their exact achievability. As two demonstrating examples, inverse designs toward a specially constructed "rectangle-shaped" green-light or red-light reflection spectrum are presented and discussed in detail. Remarkably, the results show that the approach can efficiently find out optimal layer thicknesses even when they are far outside the range covered by the original training data of DNN.

摘要： It has been a puzzle whether quarks may exist in the interior of massive neutron stars, since the hadron-quark phase transition softens the equation of state (EOS) and reduce the neutron star (NS) maximum mass very significantly. In this work, we consider the light U-boson that increases the NS maximum mass appreciably through its weak coupling to fermions. The inclusion of the U-boson may thus allow the existence of the quark degrees of freedom in the interior of large mass neutron stars. Unlike the consequence of the U-boson in hadronic matter, the stiffening role of the U-boson in the hybrid EOS is not sensitive to the choice of the hadron phase models. In addition, we have also investigated the effect of the effective QCD correction on the hybrid EOS. This correction may reduce the coupling strength of the U-boson that is needed to satisfy NS maximum mass constraint. While the inclusion of the U-boson also increases the NS radius significantly, we find that appropriate in-medium effects of the U-boson may reduce the NS radii significantly, satisfying both the NS radius and mass constraints well.

摘要： In this study, we present a catalog of molecular clumps extracted from 13CO (J = 1 − 0) emission data of the Milky Way Imaging Scroll Painting (MWISP) project. The data covers the inner Milky Way within the longitude range 10° ≤ l ≤ 20° and the latitude strip of . The workflow for the extraction of clumps, namely Facet-SS-3D-Clump, consists of two parts: the identification of clump candidates and their verification. First, Facet-SS-3D-Clump employs FacetClumps to identify clump candidates. Subsequently, high-confidence clumps are obtained by cross-matching with the clumps detected by other algorithms, such as dendrogram. Second, these high-confidence clumps are used as prior knowledge to train a semi-supervised deep clustering approach, SS-3D-Clump, which is applied to verify clump candidates detected by FacetClumps, providing confidence levels for the molecular clumps. Finally, the catalog comprising 18,757 molecular clumps was obtained using Facet-SS-3D-Clump, and the catalog is 90% complete above 37 K km s−1. We observe a significant deviation of the mean Galactic latitude for clumps within ∣b∣ ≤ 2° from the midplane, with . We found that 82.3% of the dust clumps correspond to 13CO clumps by matching with Herschel infrared dust clumps. In the future, Facet-SS-3D-Clump will be applied to detect 13CO clumps in the entire MWISP data.

摘要： Polarization light microscopes are powerful tools for probing molecular order and orientation in birefringent materials. While a multitude of polarization light microscopy techniques are often used to access steady-state properties of birefringent samples, quantitative measurements of the molecular orientation dynamics on the millisecond time scale have remained a challenge. We propose polarized shearing interference microscopy (PSIM), a single-shot quantitative polarization imaging method, for extracting the retardance and orientation angle of the laser beam transmitting through optically anisotropic specimens with complex structures. The measurement accuracy and imaging performances of PSIM are validated by imaging a rotating wave plate and a bovine tendon specimen. We demonstrate that PSIM can quantify the dynamics of a flowing lyotropic chromonic liquid crystal in a microfluidic channel at an imaging speed of 506 frames per second (only limited by the camera frame rate), with a field-of-view of up to $350\times350 \mu m^2$ and a diffraction-limit spatial resolution of $\sim 2\mu m$. We envision that PSIM will find a broad range of applications in quantitative material characterization under dynamical conditions.

摘要： AliCPT-1 is the first Chinese CMB experiment aiming for high precision
measurement of Cosmic Microwave Background B-mode polarization. The telescope,
currently under deployment in Tibet, will observe in two frequency bands
centered at 90 and 150 GHz. We forecast the CMB lensing reconstruction,
lensing-galaxy as well as lensing-CIB (Cosmic Infrared Background) cross
correlation signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for AliCPT-1. We consider two stages
with different integrated observation time, namely "4 module*yr" (first stage)
and "48 module*yr" (final stage). For lensing reconstruction, we use three
different quadratic estimators, namely temperature-only, polarization-only and
minimum-variance estimators, using curved sky geometry. We take into account
the impact of inhomogeneous hit counts as well as of the mean-field bias due to
incomplete sky coverage. In the first stage, our results show that the 150 GHz
channel is able to measure the lensing signal at $15\sigma$ significance with
the minimum-variance estimator. In the final stage, the measurement
significance will increase to $31\sigma$. We also combine the two frequency
data in the harmonic domain to optimize the SNR. Our result show that the
coadding procedure can significantly reduce the reconstruction bias in the
multiple range l>800. Thanks to the high quality of the polarization data in
the final stage of AliCPT-1, the EB estimator will dominate the lensing
reconstruction in this stage. We also estimate the SNR of cross-correlations
between AliCPT-1 CMB lensing and other tracers of the large scale structure of
the universe. For its cross-correlation with DESI galaxies/quasars, we report
the cross-correlation SNR = 10-20 for the 4 redshift bins at 0.05
