Population Dynamics and Emission Spectrum of a Cascade Three-Level Jaynes-Cummings Model with Intensity-Dependent Coupling in a Kerr-like Medium

By using the method of eigenvectors, the atomic populations and emission spectrum are investigated in a system that consists of a cascade three-level atom resonantly interacting with a single-mode tield in a Kerr-like medium. The atom and the field are assumed to be initially in the upper atomic state and the Fock state, respectively. Results for models with intensity-dependent coupling and with intensity-independent coupling are compared. It is found that both population dynamics and emission spectrum show no indications of atom-field decoupling in the strong field limit if the intensity-dependent coupling is taken into account.

Formation Mechanism and Emission Spectrum of AlO Radicals in Reaction of Laser-ablated Al Atom and Oxygen

The emission spectrum of AlO radicals was analyzed in 440-540 nm in the reaction of laser ablated Al beam and O 2. The carrier of spectrum was assigned to Δ ν =0, ±1, ±2 vibrational sequences of B 2Σ +-X 2Σ + transition of AlO radicals, the observed maximum vibrational quantum number was ν ′=6. The rotational and vibrational temperatures of B state were estimated at 3000 and 7500 K by spectrally simulating the rovibronic population distribution. There is a strong evidence that the production of excited Al( 2 S ) atoms is essential to the formation of excited AlO radicals.

Continuous Emission Spectrum Measurement for Electron Temperature Determination in Low-Temperature Collisional Plasmas

Continuous emission spectrum measurement is applied for the inconvenient diagnos- tics of low-temperature collisional plasmas. According to the physical mechanism of continuous emission, a simplified model is presented to analyze the spectrum in low temperature plasma. The validity of this model is discussed in a wide range of discharge parameters, including electron tem- perature and ionization degree. Through the simplified model, the continuous emission spectrum in a collisional argon internal inductively coupled plasma is experimentally measured to determine the electron temperature distribution for different gas pressures and radio-frequency powers. The inverse Abel transform is also applied for a better spatially resoluted results. Meanwhile, the result of the continuous emission spectrum measurement is compared to that of the electrostatic double probes, which indicates the effectiveness of this method.

Effect of cavity dissipation on the emission spectrum of an atom interacting with a field in the dispersive approximation

The emission spectrum of a two-level atom interacting dispersively with a single mode radiation field in the dissipative cavity is investigated. A general expression for the emission spectrum is derived. The numerical results for the initial field in coherent state are calculated. It is found that the spectrum structure is influenced significantly by the cavity damping constant k, and the spectrum structure is dependent on the interaction time r when the cavity dissipation is present. Only one peak located at wa appears in the atomic spectra for larger T.

Emission spectrum of a harmonically trapped Λ-type three-level atom

We theoretically investigate the emission spectrum for a A-type three-level atom trapped in the node of a standing wave. We show that the atomic center-of-mass motion not only directly affects the peak number, peak position, and peak height in the atomic emission spectrum, but also influences the effects of the cavity field and the atomic initial state on atomic emission spectrum.

Properties of Light Emission Spectrumof Double-barrier Tunnel Junction

Fabricated are the double-barrier light emission tunnel junctions successfully. Introduced are the fabrication process and light emission characteristics. The spectra of the junctions are measured and analyzed especially. Their spectrum wavelength including main wave peak(locates at 450 nm^500 nm) of the double-barrier junction shows a "blue shift" in comparison with that of the single-barrier Metal/Insulator/Semiconductor(MIS) or Metal/Insulator/Metal(MIM) junction(wave peak locates at 620 nm^740 nm). This phenomenon should be due to the occurrence of the electron resonant tunneling in the double-barrier junction.

Two-photon emission in coupled biexciton quantum dot–cavity system: Phonon-assisted model

We theoretically analyze the steady state emission spectrum and transient temporal dynamics in a coupled biexciton quantum dot（QD）–cavity system. For steady state, a phonon-assisted biexciton–exciton cascade model under continuous wave（CW） excitation is presented to explain the asymmetric QD–cavity emission spectrum intensities（intensities of cavity,exciton, and biexciton emission peak） in off-resonance condition. Results demonstrate that the electron–phonon process is crucial to the asymmetry of emission spectrum intensity. Moreover the transient characteristics of the biexciton–exciton cascade system under pulse excitation show abundant nonlinear temporal dynamic behaviors, including complicated oscillations which are caused by the four-level structure of QD model. We also reveal that under off-resonance condition the cavity outputs are slightly reduced due to the electron–phonon interaction.

Experimental Studies of Low-Pressure Plasma Jet by Means of Langmuir Probes and Emission Spectra

An investigation was made into the argon plasma jet that expanded in a low-pressure vacuum chamber. The spatial distributions of the parameters of the plasma jet with different supplied powers were measured using a ten-channel Langmuir probe array. The chemical species in the plasma jet were identified by emission spectroscopy. The electron excitation temperatures at two positions, 10 cm and 50 cm downstream from the nozzle exit were calculated, respectively, by the Boltzmann plot method.

Multiple Excitation Wavelength Fluorescence Emission Spectra Technique for Discrimination of Phytoplankton

In vivo fluorescence methods are efficient tools for studying the distribution of phytoplankton in nature.Different algae species usually have different pigments with different ratios,which results in different fluorescence emission spectra.Based on multiple excitation wavelength fluorescence emission spectra,a discrimination technique is established in this study.The discrimination method,established by multivariate linear regression and weighted least-squares,was used to differentiate the samples cultured in the laboratory and collected from Jiaozhou Bay near Qingdao at the division level.The correctly discriminated samples were ≥ 86% for single algae samples,≥ 88% for simulatively mixed ones,≥ 91% for physically mixed ones and 100% for samples collected from Jiaozhou Bay.The result in this research is more definite for the physically mixed samples in the laboratory.The method described here can be employed to monitor the phytoplankton population in the marine environment.

The emission spectra of some heteropolytungstates containing europium, K.[Eu(XW11 O39)2](X = P, Ge, As, or Ga), K17[EuCAs2W17O61)2] and K16H9EuAs4W40O140 have been investigated and the structures of these compounds are discussed. The emission spectra at room temperature are very similar to each other in terms of both the number of bands and transition frequencies, showing that they have the similar structures to those of K16[Ce(P2W17O61)2] and K12[U(GeW11O39)2].

Effect of atomic initial phase difference on spontaneous emission of an atom embedded in photonic crystal

We investigate the effect of initial phase difference between the two excited states of a V-type three-level atom on its steady state behaviour of spontaneous emission. A modified density of modes is introduced to calculate the spontaneous emission spectra in photonic crystal. Spectra in free space are also shown to compare with that in photonic crystal with different relative positions of the excited levels from upper band-edge frequency. It is found that the initial phase difference plays an important role in the quantum interference property between the two decay channels. For a zero initial phase, destructive property is presented in the spectra. With the increase of initial phase difference, quantum interference between the two decay channels from upper levels to ground level turns to be constructive. Furthermore, we give an interpretation for the property of these spectra.

Theoretical simulations of emission spectra of Fe^7＋ and Fe^＋8

The energy levels, oscillator strengths, spontaneous radiative decay rates, and electron impact collision strengths are calculated for Fe VIII and Fe IX using the recently developed flexible atomic code （FAC）. These atomic data are used to analyse the emission spectra of both laboratory and astrophysical plasmas. The nf-3d emission lines have been simulated for Fe VIII and Fe IX in a wavelength range of 6-14 nm. For Fe VIII, the predicted relative intensities of lines are insensitive to temperature. For Fe IX, however, the intensity ratios are very sensitive to temperature, implying that the information of temperature in the experiment can be inferred. Detailed line analyses have also been carried out in a wavelength range of 60-80 nm for Fe VIII, where the solar ultraviolet measurements of emitted radiation spectrometer records a large number of spectra. More lines can be identified with the aid of present atomic data. A complete dataset is available electronically from http：//www.astrnomy.csdb.cn/EIE/.

Atomic emission spectra and field non-classical properties

This paper studies the interaction of a A-type three-level atom with a single mode field. It discusses the emission spectrum characteristics of the A-type three-level atom driven by the photon-added coherent field. By means of the second-order degree of coherence, it shows some nonclassical properties of the cavity field, such as sub-Poissonian photon- number distribution and the two-time intensity-intensity correlation which violates the Cauchy Schwarz inequality.

Light Emission Characteristics of Metal/Insulator/Metal and Metal/Insulator/Si Tunnel Junctions Mediated by Surface Plasmon-polaritons

The Au/Al2O3/Al metal/insulator/metal junction(MIMJ) and Au/SiO2/Si metal/insulator/Si junction(MISJ) have been constructed successfully. The light emission of these junctions was mediated by surface plasmon-polaritons(SPPs) under surface roughness. The light emission from MISJ was more uniform and stable than that from MIMJ. The light power of MISJ was about 2~3 orders higher than that of MIMJ. The light emission spectrum of MISJ was analyzed especially. In the spectrum, there was one main peak located at the wavelength of 610 nm^640 nm, which was mainly due to the couple of SPP with the surface roughness at the Au/air and Au/SiO2 interfaces. A weak peak located at the shorter wavelength region in the spectrum was also found, which was caused by the direct radiation of doped-Si plasma oscillation.

Analysis of Dynamic Tensile Process of Fiber Reinforced Concrete by Acoustic Emission Technique

The fiber reinforced concrete has good dynamic mechanical properties. But corresponding research lacks the dynamic damage characteristics of the polypropylene fiber（fiber of low elastic modulus） and steel fiber（fiber of high elastic modulus） reinforced concrete under medium strain rate（10-6 s-1-10-4 s-1）. In order to study the effect of strain rate on the damage characteristics of fiber reinforced concrete during the full curve damage process, the real time dynamic acoustic emission（AE） technique was applied to monitor the damage process of fiber reinforced concrete at three strain rates. The AE wavelet energy spectrum in ca8 frequency band and average AE peak frequency at three strain rates were analyzed. With the accumulation of damage, the AE wavelet energy spectrum in ca8 frequency band increased first and then decreased, and the average AE peak frequency increased gradually. With the increase of strain rate, the AE wavelet energy spectrum in ca8 frequency band and average AE peak frequency decreased gradually. The polypropylene fiber content has more obvious effect on the Dynamic increase factor（DIF） of the peak stress than the steel fiber content. The theoretical basis was provided for the monitoring of dynamic damage of fiber reinforced concrete based on the AE technique.

Multi-scale morphology analysis of acoustic emission signal and quantitative diagnosis for bearing fault

Monitoring of potential bearing faults in operation is of critical importance to safe operation of high speed trains.One of the major challenges is how to differentiate relevant signals to operational conditions of bearings from noises emitted from the surrounding environment.In this work,we report a procedure for analyzing acoustic emission signals collected from rolling bearings for diagnosis of bearing health conditions by examining their morphological pattern spectrum（MPS） through a multi-scale morphology analysis procedure.The results show that acoustic emission signals resulted from a given type of bearing faults share rather similar MPS curves.Further examinations in terms of sample entropy and Lempel-Ziv complexity of MPS curves suggest that these two parameters can be utilized to determine damage modes.

Characteristics of emissive spectrum and the removal of nitric oxide in N_2/O_2/NO plasma with argon additive

Although the approach using non-thermal plasma（NTP） for deNOx has been studied for over 15 years,how to achieve higher removal effciency with lower cost is still a barrier for its industrial application.In order to investigate the impact of the argon additive on electron density,energy and nitric oxide reduction process in plasma,the spectrum of the dielectric barrier discharge at atmospheric pressure in a coaxial reactor was measured using the monochromater with high resolution.The comparative experiments for NO reduction were carried out simultaneously in N2/O2/NO plasma stream with and without argon,respectively.The nitrogen molecular spectrum which is attributed to the energy level transition（C^3πu→ B^3πg） was compared in the wavelength range 300-480 nm and the electron density and temperature were determined based on the relative intensities and Stark broadening width of spectral lines.The spectrum results indicated that the argon additive could enhance the intensity of emissive spectrum of plasma,thus the electron concentration as well as the energy was increased,and finally prompted the ionization rate to produce active N,O and O3.The results of NO reduction showed that NO conversion effciency increased in the range of 10%-30% with 5% addition of argon in stream comparing with the condition without argon additive.This study will play a positive role in the industrial application of dielectric barrier discharge deNOx reactor.

Influence of bias voltage and oxygen addition on the discharge aspects of a diffuse argon plume in an atmospheric pressure plasma jet

A remote plasma,also referred to as a plasma plume(diffuse or filamentary),is normally formed downstream of an atmospheric pressure plasma jet.In this study,a diffuse plume is formed by increasing the bias voltage(U_(b))applied to the downstream electrode of an argon plasma jet excited by a negatively pulsed voltage.The results indicate that the plume is filamentary when U_(b)is low,which transits to the diffuse plume with increasing U_(b).The discharge initiated at the rising edge of the pulsed voltage is attributed to the diffuse plume,while that at the falling edge contributes to the filament in the plume.For the diffuse plume,the discharge intensity decreases with the increasing oxygen content(C_o).Fast photography reveals that the diffuse plume results from a negative streamer,which has a dark region near the nozzle with C_o=0%.However,the dark region is absent with C_o=0.5%.From the optical emission spectrum,the electron density,electron excitation temperature,gas temperature,and oxygen atom concentration are investigated.
