710 GHz and the single sideband phase noise of -99.60 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset from the carrier are achieved.Two-channel coherent perfect absorption (CPA) enables absorption modulation as well as perfect absorption in a very simple way. However, because of its narrow and discrete operable wavelength range, the CPA has been limited to specific applications. In this work, we theoretically and experimentally demonstrate broadband single-channel CPA operable from the visible to near-infrared wavelengths, using an ultrathin absorbing material on a pseudo perfect magnetic mirror. Our simple yet effective method can be applied to various applications such as solar cells, thermophotovoltaics, and stealth technology.This work compares the random time-varying crosstalk in homogeneous multi-core fibers measured using different types of light sources with linewidths ranging from 100 Hz to 2.5 MHz. We show that the frequency stability of the light source plays a significant role on the quality of short-term average crosstalk measurements with no observable impact from laser linewidth. We also compare the use of filtered amplified spontaneous emission noise and coherent light sources for crosstalk measurements. The former are shown to enable average crosstalk measurements in short time periods. In contrast, measurements using coherent light sources require long measurement periods to reach similar results.A novel optical reverse mapping (ORM) method and an ORM criterion are proposed to evaluate the relevance between the directional backlight (DB) 3D light-field display system aberration and the crosstalk. Bcl 2 inhibitor Based on the ORM criterion, the space-division-multiplexed catadioptric integrated backlight (SCIB) and symmetrical triplet-compound lenticular array (triplet LA) are designed. The SCIB is composed of hybrid Fresnel integrated backlight unit (hybrid Fresnel unit) and space-division-multiplexed microprism unit (microprism unit). The hybrid Fresnel unit is used to provide the directional light, and the divergence angle is 2.4-degrees. The average uniformity of 83.02% is achieved. The microprism unit is used to modulate the directional light distribution into three predetermined directions to establish a 90-degree viewing area. Combined with SCIB, the triplet LA is used to suppress the aberrations and reduce the crosstalk. In the experiment, a DB 3D light-field display system based on SCIB and triplet LA is set up. The displayed light-field 3D image can be observed in a 90-degree viewing angle. Compared to the conventional DB 3D display system, the light-field 3D image is aberration-suppressed, and the SSIM values are improved from 0.8462 to 0.9618. Meanwhile, the crosstalk measurement results show that the average crosstalk is 3.49%. The minimum crosstalk is 2.31% and the maximum crosstalk is 4.52%. The crosstalk values in 90-degree are lower than 5%.A novel security-enhanced scheme combining improved deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) encoding encryption at the bit-level with matrix scrambling at the symbol-level is proposed in OFDM-PON for the first time in this paper. In our proposed scheme, firstly each subcarrier is encrypted by improved DNA encoding encryption, which includes the functioning of key base series and the cross interchange. And the selected encoding rules, decoding rules, key base series, operating principles and the positions of cross interchange are dynamically changing, which enhances the robustness against malicious attacks by illegal attackers. Then during the matrix scrambling process, the non-equal-length quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) matrix is divided into several squares of equal length according to an optimum method. At the same time, the times of matrix scrambling can be determined randomly. With the multi-fold encryption of the proposed scheme, the achieved key space can reach up to 10154, which can sufficiently ensure the physical layer security. Experimental verification of the proposed security-enhanced strategy was demonstrated in an 8 Gb/s 16QAM orthogonal frequency division multiplexing passive optical network (OFDM-PON) system over 25-km standard single-mode fiber (SSMF). The experimental results prove that the two-level coordinated encryption at the bit-level and symbol-level using chaos and encryption can effectively protect data from violent attacks, differential attacks, etc.The idea of combining a flexible fiber bundle with the microscopic imaging system provides the possibility of the cross-scale detection of defects and textures on large-scale complex components. However, the pixelization artifacts caused by the inter-core spacing of the fibers degrade the image quality and make it difficult to identify the micro-features. A high-resolution reconstruction strategy is proposed based on dictionary learning. By training the high- and low-resolution image pairs after image registration, a coupled dictionary is obtained. Then high-quality images are obtained from the trained dictionary. Experimental results demonstrate that the pixelization artifacts can be effectively addressed, and the resolution of the reconstructed images can be promoted by 1.8 times.Nanoscale light emitting diodes (nanoLEDs, diameter less then 1 µm), with active and sacrificial multi-quantum well (MQW) layers epitaxially grown via metal organic chemical vapor deposition, were fabricated and released into solution using a combination of colloidal lithography and photoelectrochemical (PEC) etching of the sacrificial MQW layer. PEC etch conditions were optimized to minimize undercut roughness, and thus limit damage to the active MQW layer. NanoLED emission was blue-shifted ∼10 nm from as-grown (unpatterned) LED material, hinting at strain relaxation in the active InGaN MQW layer. X-ray diffraction also suggests that strain relaxation occurs upon nanopatterning, which likely results in less quantum confined Stark effect. Internal quantum efficiency of the lifted nanoLEDs was estimated at 29% by comparing photoluminescence at 292K and 14K. This work suggests that colloidal lithography, combined with chemical release, could be a viable route to produce solution-processable, high efficiency nanoscale light emitters.
