RESUMO
We report both theoretically and experimentally a process of optical intrinsic orbit-orbit interaction with a vortex-antivortex structure nested in a freely propagating light field. The orbit-orbit interaction is originating from the coupling between different vortices and antivortices. Based on this process, we reveal the resultant controllable orbital-angular-momentum Hall effect by considering a typical structure, which comprises a vortex-antivortex pair and another vortex (or antivortex) as a controllable knob. The intrinsic Hall effect can be spatially manipulated by appropriately engineering the orbit-orbit interaction, namely arranging the initial distribution of these elements. This work can find interesting potential applications. For example, it provides an effective technique for controllable paired photon generation.
RESUMO
A novel method based on Pulse Coupled Neural Network(PCNN) algorithm for the highly accurate and robust compass information calculation from the polarized skylight imaging is proposed,which showed good accuracy and reliability especially under cloudy weather,surrounding shielding and moon light. The degree of polarization (DOP) combined with the angle of polarization (AOP), calculated from the full sky polarization image, were used for the compass information caculation. Due to the high sensitivity to the environments, DOP was used to judge the destruction of polarized information using the PCNN algorithm. Only areas with high accuracy of AOP were kept after the DOP PCNN filtering, thereby greatly increasing the compass accuracy and robustness. From the experimental results, it was shown that the compass accuracy was 0.1805° under clear weather. This method was also proven to be applicable under conditions of shielding by clouds, trees and buildings, with a compass accuracy better than 1°. With weak polarization information sources, such as moonlight, this method was shown experimentally to have an accuracy of 0.878°.
RESUMO
Stable vortex lattices are basic dynamical patterns which have been demonstrated in physical systems including superconductor physics, Bose-Einstein condensates, hydrodynamics and optics. Vortex-antivortex (VAV) ensembles can be produced, self-organizing into the respective polar lattices. However, these structures are in general highly unstable due to the strong VAV attraction. Here, we demonstrate that multiple optical VAV clusters nested in the propagating coherent field can crystallize into patterns which preserve their lattice structures over distance up to several Rayleigh lengths. To explain this phenomenon, we present a model for effective interactions between the vortices and antivortices at different lattice sites. The observed VAV crystallization is a consequence of the globally balanced VAV couplings. As the crystallization does not require the presence of nonlinearities and appears in free space, it may find applications to high-capacity optical communications and multiparticle manipulations. Our findings suggest possibilities for constructing VAV complexes through the orbit-orbit couplings, which differs from the extensively studied spin-orbit couplings.
RESUMO
Polyester-short-fiber-reinforced rubber composites have been detected by an X-ray three-dimensional microscope, and then the three-dimensional reconstruction of the image has been carried out to characterize the orientation of polyester short fibers in the composites for the first time. Based on the summary of three traditional methods and mechanisms of characterizing the orientation of polyester short fibers by the numerical parameter method, the direct test method, and the indirect test method, the method and mechanism of the X-ray three-dimensional microscope applied to the orientation characterization of polyester short fibers have been studied. The combination of the center point and threshold segmentation methods has been used to distinguish which fiber section belongs to the same fiber, and the identification of the whole short fiber in different slice images has been realized for the first time. Moreover, Avizo software has been used to realize the three-dimensional reconstruction of a polyester short fiber scanning image. The obtained data have been integrated and the orientation angle and orientation degree have been quantitatively characterized for the first time. This has filled the key technical problem of quantitative characterization of the orientation angle and orientation degree of polyester fibers. The image has been verified by 3Dmed software, and furthermore, the accuracy of the three-dimensional reconstruction results has been verified.
RESUMO
The effects of wet mixing and traditional mixing on the properties of radial-orientation basalt fiber-reinforced rubber products were studied through experiments. The results show that compared with traditional mixing, the basalt fibers under the wet mixing conditions can more effectively enhance the physical and mechanical properties of composites. The properties of the composites, such as carbon black dispersion, filler dispersion, rolling resistance and wet-sliding resistance, were the best after the latex and carbon black were premixed and then mixed by a mixer. Through extrusion experiments with the developed short-fiber radial-orientation die, it can be found that the fluidity of composites after extrusion is enhanced. Through analysis utilizing an electron microscope, it is shown that when the BFs added with KH550 (3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane) were modified by KH560 ((3-Glycidyloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane), the interface layers of BF (basalt fiber)-KH560-NR and BF-KH550-NR were formed, which improves the adhesion between BFs and the rubber matrix. Qualitative characterization experiments on the orientation direction of the vulcanized composites were carried out through the experiments; that is, the qualitative characterization experiments on the segmented cutting and vulcanization of the composites in the radial direction showed that the short-fiber radial-orientation die could greatly improve the radial orientation degree of the short fibers in the radial direction. After adding KH560, the performance of the composites reinforced by the short fibers was improved to a certain extent compared with those without KH560. By adding DZ (N,N-Dicyclohexyl-2-benzothiazolsulfene amide) and CTP(cytidine triphosphate disodium) into the vulcanization system, the curing process of compounds in mixing and extrusion was delayed and the scorching resistance of short-fiber-reinforced composites was enhanced. Under the same conditions, the properties of the compounds after extrusion were greatly improved compared with those without extrusion.
