Ca and S <i>K</i> -edge XANES of CaS calculated by different methods: influence of full potential, core hole and Eu doping
摘要： Ca and S K-edge spectra of CaS are calculated by the full-potential Green’s function multiple-scattering method, by the FLAPW method and by the finite-difference method. All three techniques lead to similar spectra. Some differences remain close to the edge, both when comparing different calculations with each other and when comparing the calculations with earlier experimental data. Here it is found that using the full potential does not lead to significant improvement over the atomic spheres approximation and that the effect of the core hole can be limited to the photoabsorbing atom alone. Doping CaS with Eu will not affect the Ca and S K-edge XANES of CaS significantly but may give rise to a pre-edge structure not present for clean CaS.

A Novel Design of Through-Hole Depth On-Machine Optical Measuring Equipment for Automatic Drilling and Riveting
摘要： In the aerospace manufacturing industry, it is impossible to achieve precise and efficient automatic drilling and riveting for largescale composite board parts. The bottleneck is that the depth detection of rivet holes still relies on manual operation, which seriously affects the assembly efficiency and stability of composite board parts. In order to realize accurate and efficient on-machine automatic measurement for through holes in the automatic drilling and riveting process of largescale composite board parts, this paper presents a novel hole depth measuring device. Its mechanical structure is developed based on our newly designed measurement scheme and optical path, the purpose of which is to convert the hole depth data into displacement data of the probe motion. Its electrical hardware consists of three units: a laser transceiver unit to pick up laser spots; a displacement measuring unit to capture the probe movement in real time; and a driving unit to achieve motion control of the probe. Finally, the experimental results indicated that the proposed method and device are capable of performing automatic measurements for through-hole depth. In addition, factors affecting the measuring accuracy and stability of the device are initially analyzed and discussed, which lay a foundation for subsequent research on error compensation and probe calibration.

A Novel Series of Thermally and Electrically Stable Hole-Transporters End-Capped by [1]Benzothieno[3,2- <i>b</i> ][1]benzotiophenes for Organic Light-Emitting Devices
摘要： A novel series of hole-transporters for organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) was developed with the aim of high thermal and electrical stability. This was achieved by introducing [1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophene (BTBT) moieties as end-cap groups. These BTBT-end-capped hole-transporters exhibited superior thermal stability with a glass transition temperature (Tg) of over 150 °C and high electrical stability in green phosphorescent OLEDs at a high brightness of over 8000 cd m–2 (current density: 15 mA cm–2).

Prevalence of vitreomacular adhesion: an optical coherence tomography analysis in the retina clinic setting
摘要： Purpose: The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of vitreomacular adhesion (VMA) in a random sample of clinical patients at three US retina clinics and to assess comorbid retinal conditions, ocular diseases, prior treatment history, and other medical histories. Patients and methods: This observational, retrospective cohort study was based on patients from the Doheny Eye Centers, Duke Eye Center, and Tufts Medical Center who received a bilateral spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) scan (one scan/eye) for clinical evaluation with available medical records. The study had three phases: 1) collection of retrospective patient data; 2) review of OCT scans at a reading center to assess VMA and associated conditions; and 3) analyses and reporting of data on the prevalence of VMA, patient demographics, and comorbid conditions. Data were obtained from electronic health records and OCT grading forms. Outcome measures from bilateral SD-OCT scans and medical records included OCT evaluation of VMA and retinal comorbid conditions. Results: In 719 patients with 1,483 reviewable OCT scans, the prevalence of VMA was estimated at 14.74% (90% CI, 12.58%–16.92%). The prevalence of unilateral VMA was estimated at 12.39%, while bilateral VMA was 2.36%. In patients with VMA, 34 out of 123 eyes with VMA (27.64%) also had fovea deformed by vitreomacular traction. Macular hole (MH) was significantly more prevalent in VMA-diagnosed eyes versus non-VMA-diagnosed eyes (6.5% versus 1.9%; P=0.02). There was a significantly higher incidence of full-thickness MH (P=0.008), operculum/flaps (P<0.0001), and lamellar or pseudo-holes (P=0.048) in VMA-diagnosed versus non-VMA-diagnosed eyes. Age, MH as a comorbid condition, full-thickness MH, lamellar or pseudo-holes, and operculum were predictive of a VMA diagnosis. Conclusion: The prevalence of VMA was estimated at 14.74% in a random sample of patients from three retina clinics. VMA diagnosis can be predicted by factors, including age, MH as a comorbid condition, and lamellar or pseudo-holes.

Enhanced light harvesting and electron-hole separation for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution over Cu7S4-enwrapped Cu2O nanocubes
摘要： P-type Cu2O is an advantageous photocatalyst as the appropriate bandgap structure and low-cost. However, poor photocatalytic and instability of such promising material is still a great challenge. Here the core-shell Cu7S4-coated Cu2O nanocubes (Cu2O/Cu7S4 NCs) were successfully synthesized by solution method coupled with anion exchange, integrated structure of Cu2O/Cu7S4 NCs exhibited apparent improved photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity compared with Cu2O photocatalyst. Particularly, Cu2O/Cu7S4 NCs had a high hydrogen production rate of 1689.00 μmol·g-1·h-1 under full spectra irradiation with additives of Na2SO3, which was higher than that of Cu2O NCs with a factor of 1.71 times. Excellent synergistic effect of Cu2O and Cu7S4 can be responsible for the improved hydrogen evolution properties, namely, the presence of Cu7S4 with localized surface plasma resonance (LSPR) can promote the photogenerated electrons transfer from the Cu2O surface, prolong the photogenerated holes lifetime, accelerate the separation of photogenerated electrons and holes, and ameliorate the photoelectric properties of semiconductors. The in situ formed multifunctional Cu7S4 layer offers a promising avenue to design photocathodes rationally for photocatalytic water reduction.

Model To Determine a Distinct Rate Constant for Carrier Multiplication from Experiments
摘要： Carrier multiplication (CM) is the process in which multiple electron?hole pairs are created upon absorption of a single photon in a semiconductor. CM by an initially hot charge carrier occurs in competition with cooling by phonon emission, with the respective rates determining the CM e?ciency. Up until now, CM rates have only been calculated theoretically. We show for the ?rst time how to extract a distinct CM rate constant from experimental data of the relaxation time of hot charge carriers and the yield of CM. We illustrate this method for PbSe quantum dots. Additionally, we provide a simpli?ed method using an estimated energy loss rate to estimate the CM rate constant just above the onset of CM, when detailed experimental data of the relaxation time is missing.

High-efficiency blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices with low efficiency roll-off at ultrahigh luminance by reduced the triplet-polaron quenching
摘要： High performance phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices (PhOLEDs) at high luminance are still a remaining problem needing to be solved, especially blue PhOLEDs. Here, 5-(5-9H-carbazol-9-yl) pyridin-2-yl)-8-(9H-carbazol-9-yl) -5H-pyrido [3, 2-b] indole (p2PCB2CZ) with excellent characteristics as host is designed to realize a novel host-guest system without hole trapping effect in blue PhOLEDs. The device in which p2PCB2CZ and Bis (3, 5-difluoro-2-(2-pyridyl) phenyl-(2-carboxypyridyl)iridium(III) (FIrpic) is used as host and guest, respectively, is proposed to improve the performances of blue PhOLEDs at high luminance, especially ultrahigh luminance (>30000 cd/m2). The maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of this type blue PhOLEDs is 19.2%, while the maximum EQE of reference blue PhOLEDs is 18.7 %. Nevertheless, the p2PCB2CZ-based devices exhibit significant advantage at high luminance, because its EQE still attains to 10.8% even when the luminance increases to 30000 cd/m2, which is 1.67 times that of the reference device. From measurements based on steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopy, the reduction of triplet-polaron quenching in p2PCB2CZ-based devices is proved to the main reason for improving the performances of blue PhOLEDs at high luminance.

The power of infrared AGN selection in mergers: a theoretical study
摘要： The role of galaxy mergers in fuelling active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is still debated, owing partly to selection effects inherent to studies of the merger/AGN connection. In particular, luminous AGNs are often obscured in late-stage mergers. Mid-infrared (IR) colour selection of dust-enshrouded AGN with, e.g. the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) has uncovered large new populations of obscured AGN. However, this method is sensitive mainly to AGN that dominate emission from the host. To understand how selection biases affect mid-IR studies of the merger/AGN connection, we simulate the evolution of AGN throughout galaxy mergers. Although mid-IR colours closely trace luminous, obscured AGN, we show that nearly half of merger-triggered AGNs are missed with common mid-IR selection criteria, even in late-stage, gas-rich major mergers. At z (cid:2) 0.5, where merger signatures and dual nuclei can most easily be detected, we find that a more lenient W1 ? W2 > 0.5 cut greatly improves completeness without significantly decreasing reliability. Extreme nuclear starbursts are briefly able to mimic this AGN signature, but this is largely irrelevant in mergers, where such starbursts are accompanied by AGN. We propose a two-colour cut that yields high completeness and reliability even in starbursting systems. Further, we show that mid-IR colour selection very effectively identifies dual AGN hosts, with the highest fraction at the smallest separations (<3 kpc). Thus, many merger hosts of mid-IR AGN should contain unresolved dual AGN; these are ideal targets for high-resolution follow-up, particularly with the James Webb Space Telescope.

Testing the validity of the ray-tracing code GYOTO
摘要： Context. In the next few years, the near-infrared interferometer GRAVITY will be able to observe the Galactic center. Astrometric data will be obtained with an anticipated accuracy of 10 μas. To analyze these future data, we have developed a code called GYOTO to compute orbits and ray-trace images. Aims. We want to assess the validity and accuracy of GYOTO in a variety of contexts, in particular for stellar astrometry in the Galactic center. Furthermore, we want to tackle and complete a study made on the astrometric displacements that are due to lensing effects of a star of the central parsec with GYOTO. Methods. We first validate GYOTO in the weak-deflection limit (WDL) by studying primary caustics and primary critical curves obtained for a Kerr black hole. We compare GYOTO results to available analytical approximations and estimate GYOTO errors using an intrinsic estimator. In the strong-deflection limit (SDL), we choose to compare null geodesics computed by GYOTO and the ray-tracing code named Geokerr. Finally, we use GYOTO to estimate the apparent astrometric displacements of a star for different angles from Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*). Results. In the WDL, we find a good coherence between GYOTO results and approximations. The maximal difference is around 10?5 μas. Our intrinsic estimator finds a conservative uncertainty estimate also around 10?5 μas. In the SDL, both ray-tracing codes find the same photon’s coordinates with a maximal difference of about 10?3 μas. The shift of a star located behind the plane of sky containing Sgr A* is consistent with the current study. In addition, the effect of lensing on any star in this plane of sky is a radial shift by 5 μas, independent of the distance from Sgr A* up to a very large distance. Conclusions. We have demonstrated that GYOTO is accurate to a very high level, orders of magnitude better than the GRAVITY requirements. GYOTO is also valid in weak- and strong-deflection regimes and for very long integrations. At the astrometric precision that GRAVITY is aiming for, lensing effects must always be taken into account when fitting stellar orbits in the central parsec of the Galaxy.

Understanding the Average Electron-Hole-Pair Creation-Energy in Silicon and Germanium based on Full-band Monte Carlo Simulations
摘要： The thermalization process of sub-10 eV charge carriers is examined with treating carrier transport with full-band Monte Carlo simulations. The average energy loss (3.69 eV in Si and 2.62 eV in Ge) required to create a thermalized electron-hole pair, obtained from the simulations, is very close to the experimentally measured radiation-ionization energies of Si and Ge irradiated with high-energy particles. These results suggest that only interactions that occur after the radiation-generated charge carriers decay to energies of ~10 eV or less determine the fundamental property of the radiation-ionization energies. In addition to an energy loss equal to the band gap energy via impact ionization, acoustic-phonon emission, which has been omitted in prior work, contributes 30% of the remaining carrier-energy loss, while optical-phonon emission contributes the other 70%.
