Zhenhua Li, Yuhua Deng, Bibo Yao, Baoren Teng, and Hao Li

The results show that the laser energy density is not a reliable parameter that affects the melt pool size and relative density of selected laser melted parts. In addition, the scanning speed of laser plays a crucial role in modulating the melting and solidification processes of the powder and melt pool size. When the laser energy density is the same, as the laser scanning speed increases, the melt pool size increases, and the density of the sample increases accordingly..

Moreover, the apHerein, the prediction accuracy of three tropospheric refractive index profile models commonly used at home and abroad was analyzed using the measured data of the tropospheric zenith delay and meteorological environment obtained from 11 international global positioning system service stations in China. Moreover, the applicability of the models was evaluated in high altitude areas and with seasonal changes. Results show that the exponential and segmented models achieve a higher accuracy at high altitude areas, while the Hopfield model shows greater advantages in areas other than high altitudes. Generally, the accuracy of the segmented and Hopfield models is higher in spring and winter and lower in summer and autumn. The accuracy of the exponential model shows a negligible relation with the season. The findings of this study have important reference values for the application research of the tropospheric refraction error correction model..

The potential energy curves for seven Λ-S electronic states (X2Σ+, B2Σ+, C2Δ, F2Σ+, A2Π, D2Π, and E2Π) of strontium chloride (SrCl) molecule are investigated using the multireference configuration interaction method (MRCI). Davidson correction (+Q), core-valence correction, and spin-orbit coupling effect are consideredThe potential energy curves for seven Λ-S electronic states (X2Σ+, B2Σ+, C2Δ, F2Σ+, A2Π, D2Π, and E2Π) of strontium chloride (SrCl) molecule are investigated using the multireference configuration interaction method (MRCI). Davidson correction (+Q), core-valence correction, and spin-orbit coupling effect are considered in the calculation. Based on the obtained potential energy curves of Λ-S states, the vibration energy levels, wave functions, and spectroscopic parameters are determined by solving the Schrödinger equation using the discrete position presentation method. The calculated values agree substantially with experimental and theoretical values. Additionally, the transition dipole moments, Franck-Condon factors, and radiative lifetime of the SrCl molecule are explored. Due to the significant diagonal distribution of the Franck-Condon factors (f00=0.96959) and short radiative lifetimes (τ=31.05 ns) of the A2Π (ν′=0) →X2Σ+(ν″=0) transition, the SrCl molecules are suitable for rapid laser cooling. Therefore, this study presents a three-laser scheme for laser cooling of SrCl molecules. The calculated pump and repump wavelengths of the laser-driven cycling are

However, humidity sensors based on fiber Bragg gratings are easily affected by temperature and stress, resulting in issues such as significant humidity measurement errors and low stability. This paper proposes a fabrication method based on a single grating half-coated temperature and humidity sensor to solve these problems. First, a moisture-sensitive material is coated on half of the grating, and the other half is a bare grating area. Then, the bare grating reflection spectrum peak curve is then Gaussian fitted to establish the functional relationship between ambient temperature and center wavelength λ. Finally, the relationship between the area S enclosed by the grating reflection spectrum curve and the peak power under various environmental humidity conditions is analyzed. The function model of the area S and the relative humidity of the environment is established. The sensor is tested by a temperature and humidity generator. The experimental result shows that the sensor has good repeatability in the range of 10%‒90%RH (%RH is relative humidity). The humidity monitoring sensitivity is 2.95/%RH, and the response time is 6.6 min, which matches the temperature and humidity monitoring requirements in storage and other fields while also providing a new solution for temperature and humidity monitoring in related fields..

However, since message updates in each layer is based on the upper layer, it is unavoidable to introduce the irrelevant information of the upper level, which reduces the proportion of effective details of the current layer. Aiming at the problem, this paper presents a layered-sorted min-sum ascend (LS-MS-A) decoding algorithm that introduces an ascending layer-weight scheduling strategy. It first updates the layer with smaller weight and reduces the interference of irrelevant information from the upper layer to the effective information of the current layer, thus, speeding up the decoding convergence rate. According to the simulation results, under the premise of ensuring the system reliability, compared with the layered minimal sum decoding algorithm, when the code length is 256 and the code rate is 0.5, LS-MS-A can improve the decoding convergence speed by about 9%. When up to 512 and the code rate is 0.75, the decoding convergence speed can be improved by about 15%..

The peak-to-average ratio growth index and amendment bits are introduced into the Polar codes encoding process. First, the scheme calculates the peak-to-average ratio growth index of a large number of Polar symbols in offline form to obtain the best index of amendment. This process is realized by Monte Carlo simulation. Second, in the system transmission process, the channel matching is performed through the signal-to-noise ratio feedback information, and the optimal correction set is obtained by looking up the table. Finally, the corresponding correction bit is bit-flipped to reduce the peak-to-average ratio. This solution is able to use the traditional decoding solution of the Polar codes to jointly decode the information and amendment bits, so there is no need to transmit auxiliary information, and the complexity of the encoding and decoding process does not increase. The simulation results show that when the code length is 1024, the number of subcarriers is 256, and the number of amendment bits is selected as 32, the proposed correction scheme can reduce the peak-to-average ratio by 4.9 dB without affecting the decoding complexity, and has a smaller block error rate performance advantage compared to the same type of scheme..

Therefore, it is crucThe focusing precision of the linear Fresnel collector has an important effect on the photothermal efficiency. Moreover, the partial hot spot caused by the partial focus of the concentrator causes an unbalanced expansion of the absorber, which causes severe damage to the collector's structure. Therefore, it is crucial to analyze the concentrating error of the collector. According to the characteristics of the linear Fresnel heat collecting system, the main factors affecting the light-gathering precision of the Fresnel collector are discussed through mechanism analysis. All the factors are analyzed and simulated by MATLAB software, and it is concluded that the main factors that cause the concentration deviation of the collector are the north-south arrangement deviation of the linear Fresnel mirror field, dynamic displacement deviation of the reflection center of the primary mirror, and dynamic variation of the light path of the reflected light. The concentrated light deviation caused by the north-south deviation of the mirror field layout is normally distributed at noon and varies with the latitude. Meanwhile, the effect of the dynamic displacement deviation of the reflection center of the primary mirror on the focusing precision is greater in the morning and evening, and it is asymmetric in the morning and afternoon with the maximum error approaching 0.08°. The influence of light path variation of the reflected light on the concentrating error is mainly reflected in the annual time axis. Through simulation analysis and field testing, the linear compensation algorithm was used to compensate the target tracking angle of the collector's primary mirror. After the compensation, the maximum concentration error of the heat collecting system was less than 0.06°..

And based on this theoretical basis, the experimental system that for measuring the backscatter cross section of spherical cooperative target is established. Using this test system, the relative intensity spectral data of echo signal of the spherical cooperative target with different materials was measured. At the same time, the spot images of spherical cooperative targets corresponding to the three typical emission power of 50 mW, 80 mW, and 300 mW are collected. According to the spectral data analysis, the backscattering cross sections of the cooperative targets with different materials are calculated. The results show that the laser radar cross section of the spherical cooperative target with refractive index of 1.46, 1.51, and 1.93 increases linearly with the increase of laser power. When the laser power is constant, the laser radar cross section of the spherical cooperative target with refractive index of 1.93 is significantly larger than that of the spherical cooperative target with refractive index of 1.46 and 1.51. This research provides a theoretical basis and data reference for the theoretical research and experimental measurement of the laser radar cross section..

In order to study the effect of height on the residual stress distribution in laser-deposited thin-walled parts, a fully coupled thermomechanical finite element model is built to simulate the temperature and stress fields in the laser-deposited 316L stainless steel thin-walled parts. The simulated results are compared In order to study the effect of height on the residual stress distribution in laser-deposited thin-walled parts, a fully coupled thermomechanical finite element model is built to simulate the temperature and stress fields in the laser-deposited 316L stainless steel thin-walled parts. The simulated results are compared with the experimental results to verify the model. The results show that as the height increases, the longitudinal stress distribution along the height direction gradually changes from uniformly distributed larger tensile stress to smaller tensile stress at the bottom and larger tensile stress at the top. The vertical stress at the boundary increases as the height increases, and the size of the zone with large tensile stress gradually increases. The longitudinal stress along the length decreases slightly as the height increases. The longitudinal stress in the lower layer gradually decreases due to thermal cycling caused by deposition. As the height increases, the vertical stress distribution at the bottom of the thin-walled part gradually becomes tensile stress at both ends and compressive stress in the middle, and the stress increases with the increase of height..

The microstructure, microhardness, and dry friction of the coating, and wear experiments were performed using various loads. The results show that the microstructure is in the form of plane, columnar, dendrite, and equiaxed crystals from the bottom to the top of the cladding layer. This is due to the solid solution strengthening of alloy elements, dispersion strengthening of carbide hard phase, and fine grain strengthening of microstructure, and the average microhardness of the coating is approximately 1.36 times higher than that of GCr15 bearing steel. With the increase of external load, the average friction coefficient of the laser cladding layer is increased, the friction coefficient decreases from 0.342 to 0.261, and the fluctuation amplitude decreases gradually, while the wear rate increases to 27.93 × 10-2 mm3·N-1·m-1. The wear mechanism of the coating varies with the load. The coating wears primarily due to abrasive wear and minor oxidation wear under a 150 N load. When the load increases to 300 N, the coating primarily wears due to oxidation and adhesive wear. For a 450 N load, the worn form of the coating is primarily due to microcutting and strong plastic deformation, with a smooth and flattening wear surface due to the formation of stable oxide enamel and work hardening layers..

The results show that after LSP impact, the grains in the near surface of GH3039 are significantly refined, and the residual compressive stress is found in the surface layer of the impact area at a depth of around 1.7 mm. After exposure at 600 ℃ for 5 h, the average grain size of LSP GH3039 increases from 20.5 μm to 28.8 μm, much smaller than the average grain size (47.9 μm) of the base metal. With the increase of exposure time, the relaxation rate of the surface residual stress of LSP GH3039 decreases, which shows a continuous decreasing trend. Compared with that of the base metal, the average ultimate tensile strength of the laser treated sample at 600 ℃ increases by 7.9%, which is attributed to grain refinement and residual compressive stress induced by laser impact treatment..

First, the surface of CNTs is metallized by electroless-plating of copper to improve the density of CNTs and the interfacial bonding between CNTs and Cu. Then, the spraying distance, scanning speed, and laser irradiation power are optimized. Finally, the microstructure of the composite coating is analyzed by energy dispersion spectroscopy (EDS) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results show that the interfacial bonding between the coating and the substrate is the best when the spraying distance is 15 mm. With the increase of scanning speed, the internal of the coating has relatively good compactness and coating/interface bonding state, and the surface of the coating is smooth. With the increase of laser irradiation power, the thickness and width of the coating first increase and then decrease, and the coating thickness reaches the maximum at 800 W. Due to the softening effect of laser heating and the protective effect of copper films on the surface of CNTs, CNTs can be evenly dispersed in the composite coating and maintain the structural integrity..

When the filaments interact with the materials, high laser intensity can excite the materials and induce the finger-print fluorescence of the materials. Supercontinuum can also be generated during filamentation which can cover the entire atmospheric optical transmission windows. The supercontinuum provides an idea source for sensing multiple atmospheric components through differential optical absorption spectroscopy.

In the theoretical calculations, the dielectric function of Au-Ag alloy nanoparticles is corrected for the effect of the reduced mean free path of the free electrons in metal nanoparticles. Three fitting equations for determining particle size and concentration methods based on the extinction properties are proposed in this paper, including resonance wavelength method, dual-wavelength extinction method, and improved dual-wavelength extinction method. The results show that as long as the extinction spectrum of the particles is measured, the particle size and concentration can be retrieved by using the fitting equations. In addition, comparing the sensitivity and the particle size range of three methods are found that the resonance wavelength method is easier and faster than other methods..

To establish the near infrared measurement model of nicotine content in e-liquid, 63 samples with different nicotine contents and tastes were collected. After eliminating the abnormal samples via Monte Carlo cross validation, the interval partial least squares (iPLS), and synergy interval partial least squares (SiPLS) To establish the near infrared measurement model of nicotine content in e-liquid, 63 samples with different nicotine contents and tastes were collected. After eliminating the abnormal samples via Monte Carlo cross validation, the interval partial least squares (iPLS), and synergy interval partial least squares (SiPLS) methods were used to select the optimal wavelength, and subsequently, the correction model was established. The results show that iPLS identified the characteristic wavelength bands of 1090?1228 nm and 1370?1508 nm. By combining the different bands, SiPLS determined the optimal bands as 1126?1240 nm, 1358?1414 nm, and 1474?1530 nm. When compared with the full-spectrum PLS model, the variables used in the SiPLS-PLS model reduced by two-thirds and the mean square error of prediction value reduced from 1.188 to 0.963; thus, improving the accuracy of the model..

Ke Chen, Sheng Wu, Hongmei Zheng, Wenli Tian, and Zhijie Liu
A structure of the front semicircle and rear trapezoidal dual-interface grating monocrystalline silicon thin film solar cell was designed. The structure and the control group were simulated by the finite-difference time-domain method. It is shown that the dual-interface has better light-trapping performance than the siA structure of the front semicircle and rear trapezoidal dual-interface grating monocrystalline silicon thin film solar cell was designed. The structure and the control group were simulated by the finite-difference time-domain method. It is shown that the dual-interface has better light-trapping performance than the single-interface grating structure by analysis of the short circuit current density and absorption spectrum. The absorption enhancement mechanism of the structure at long wavelength (750-1100 nm) was analyzed by using electromagnetic field distribution. In addition, for the front semicircle rear trapezoidal grating structure, the left and right slope of rear trapezoidal grating and the offset degree of front and rear gratings under the same period are further optimized. The results show that the irregular trapezoidal gratings have better light-trapping performance, and through the absorption efficiency cloud diagram, the best effect can be found when the offset degree is at 40 nm. The optimal short-circuit current density reaches 20.17 mA/cm2, which is 58.1% higher than the planar structure by calculation and analysis. The research results have certain guiding significance for the grating structure design of thin film solar cells..

Dammann zone plate, which consists of a series of concentric rings, is a practical optical element which introduces the phase modulation idea of Dammann grating into the traditional band plate. Through modulating the diffraction order, it can produce a series of axial focal spot distribution in the light field behind the focusing lens. Moreover, by combining the focusing lens with different numerical apertures, the intensity distribution of the focal spot will also change to a certain extent. Through theoretical simulation and experimental verification, it provides an effective design method for fabrication of multi-focus intraocular lens. The multi-focus intraocular lens has five focal points, which can improve cataract patients' vision at different distances simultaneously and provide them with clearer and more detailed images..

The study used 64 spot colors obtained by mixing a certain series of spot color inks of Siegwerk brand as the target color samples for training, carried out two-color, three-color, and four-color mixed spectrum prediction research respectively, and obtained three quantities of primary color inks when mixed . The optimal paper-based weights are -0.5, -0.1, 0.2, respectively. Bringing the best paper-based weight into the prediction model, and using CIE1976 color difference, CIEDE2000 color difference and root mean square error(RMSE) as evaluation indicators, two, three, and four-color spot colors with known formulas were randomly selected for accuracy testing experiments. The experimental results show that compared with the traditional K-M method, the CIE1976 color difference, CIEDE2000 color difference and RMSE of the method proposed in this study are reduced from 5.748, 3.471 and 0.048 to 2.077, 1.441 and 0.011, respectively. Compared with the traditional K-M method, the prediction accuracy of this method is greatly improved, and it can better realize the spectrum prediction of the mixed color of offset printing ink with higher accuracy..

Jiaqi Ju, Ke Xu, Yue Wang, Jukun Liu, and Yan Jin
In this paper, the sound-light fusion effect has been studied based on physiological parameters and subjective emotional changes. The influence of western major music, western minor music, 3 kinds of monochromatic lighting (wavelengths of 623, 537, 445 nm) and 2 kinds of white lighting with different color temperaturesIn this paper, the sound-light fusion effect has been studied based on physiological parameters and subjective emotional changes. The influence of western major music, western minor music, 3 kinds of monochromatic lighting (wavelengths of 623, 537, 445 nm) and 2 kinds of white lighting with different color temperatures (color temperature of 3000, 6000 K) on the human body is systematically discussed. The experimental results show that people's physiological response to music is stronger than that of the lighting stimulus. The physiological perception under dual-factor stimulation is stronger than that of single-factor, and sound plays a major role in the sound-light fusion environment. Music and light interact when they stimulate emotions at the same time. The superposition of two positively related emotional environmental factors can strengthen the effect on emotions. It provides theoretical support and opinions for the design of music and light show or immersive interactive lighting..
