A figure of merit(FoM) is introduced to evaluate the switching response of the PADC when a dual-output Mach–Zehnder modulator(MZM) serves as the photonic switch to parallelize the sampled pulse train into two channels. After the optimization of the FoM and utilization of the channel-mismatch compensation algorithm,the system bandwidth of PADC is expanded and the signal-to-distortion ratio is enhanced.展开更多

To acquire the energy-oscillating incident X-ray beam, a piezoelectric actuator is used to control the double-crystal monochromator. A logarithmic converter circuit and a lock-in amplifier are used to extract the modulated signals. The normal and differential XAFS spectra of the Mn K-edge of Li2 Mn O3 have been collected. The X-ray-absorption near-edge-structure(XANES) spectra verify that the signal-to-noise ratio has been greatly improved by the new technique, and the extended X-ray absorption fine structure(EXAFS) spectra demonstrate that this new technique can efficiently enhance the signals of the backscattering atoms.展开更多
