Three-Dimensional Segmentation and Quantitative Measurement of the Aqueous Outflow System of Intact Mouse Eyes Based on Spectral Two-Photon Microscopy Techniques
摘要： PURPOSE. To visualize and quantify the three-dimensional (3D) spatial relationships of the structures of the aqueous outflow system (AOS) within intact enucleated mouse eyes using spectral two-photon microscopy (TPM) techniques. METHODS. Spectral TPM, including two-photon autofluorescence (TPAF) and second-harmonic generation (SHG), were used to image the small structures of the AOS within the limbal region of freshly enucleated mouse eyes. Long infrared excitation wavelengths (930 nm) were used to reduce optical scattering and autofluorescent background. Image stacks were collected for 3D image rendering and structural segmentation. For anatomical reference, vascular perfusion with fluorescent-conjugated dextran (150 KDa) and trans-corneal perfusion with 0.1 lm fluorescent polystyrene beads were separately performed to identify the episcleral veins (EV) and the trabecular meshwork (TM) and Schlemm's canal (SC), respectively. RESULTS. Three-dimensional rendering and segmentation of spectral two-photon images revealed detailed structures of the AOS, including SC, collector channels (CC), and aqueous veins (AV). The collagen of the TM was detected proximal to SC. The long and short axes of the SC were 82.2 ± 22.2 μm and 6.7 ± 1.4 μm. The diameters of the CC averaged 25.6 ± 7.9 μm where they originated from the SC (ostia), enlarged to 34.1 ± 13.1 μm at the midpoint, and narrowed to 18.3 ± 4.8 μm at the junction of the AV. The diameter of the AV averaged 12.5 ± 3.4 μm. CONCLUSIONS. Spectral TPM can be used to reconstruct and measure the spatial relationships of both large and small AOS structures, which will allow for better understanding of distal aqueous outflow dynamics.

BaHgGeSe4 and SrHgGeSe4: Two New Hg-based Infrared Nonlinear Optical Materials
摘要： New practically usable IR nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals, especially those suitable for high-efficient pumping of the commercial 1 μm laser, are in urgent demand. However, only a few new IR NLO materials have been grown into bulk crystals and realized IR laser output during the past twenty years due to the extreme difficulty in achieving the coexistence of various strongly-correlated properties. In the manuscript, based on the bonding characteristics of the Hg element and an efficient screening strategy for high-performance new crystals, we identified two new Hg-based IR nonlinear (NLO) materials, BaHgGeSe4 and SrHgGeSe4. They crystallize in the polar space group Ama2 with the distorted HgSe4 and GeSe4 tetrahedra aligned parallelly. They exhibit exceptional balance among all the preferred properties for practical applications, especially for high-efficient pumping of the commercial 1 μm laser: Their large band gap (~2.5 eV) can avoid the two-photon absorption of 1 μm laser and increase the laser damage threshold; They are phase matchable with very strong NLO response (5×AgGaS2); They can cover both the 3-5 μm and 8-12 μm atmospheric windows. Moreover, they melt congruently, which indicate that bulk crystals can be obtained by the Bridgman method. Their overall properties outperform the traditional materials AgGaQ2 (Q = S, Se) in a large degree. Detailed structural analysis and calculations elucidate the crucial role of cations in regulating the packing of the anionic groups and that of the highly-polarizable HgSe4 in balancing optical properties.

Twins in YAl3(BO3)4 and K2Al2B2O7 Crystals as Revealed by Changes in Optical Activity
摘要： Many borate crystals feature nonlinear optical properties that allow for efficient frequency conversion of common lasers down into the ultraviolet spectrum. Twinning may degrade crystal quality and affect nonlinear optical properties, in particular if crystals are composed of twin domains with opposing polarities. Here, we use measurements of optical activity to demonstrate the existence of inversion twins within single crystals of YAl3(BO3)4 (YAB) and K2Al2B2O7 (KABO). We determine the optical rotatory dispersion of YAB and KABO throughout the visible spectrum using a spectrophotometer with rotatable polarizers. Space-resolved measurements of the optical rotation can be related to the twin structure and give estimates on the extent of twinning. The reported dispersion relations for the rotatory power of YAB and KABO may be used to assess crystal quality and to select twin-free specimens.

Quantification of collagen fiber structure using second harmonic generation imaging and two-dimensional discrete Fourier transform analysis: Application to the human optic nerve head
摘要： Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) microscopy is widely used to image collagen fiber microarchitecture due to its high spatial resolution, optical sectioning capabilities and relatively non-destructive sample preparation. Quantification of SHG images requires sensitive methods to capture fiber alignment. This paper presents a 2D Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) based method for collagen fiber structure analysis from SHG images. The method includes integrated Periodicity Plus Smooth Image Decomposition (PPSID) for correction of DFT edge discontinuity artefact, avoiding the loss of peripheral image data encountered with more commonly used windowing methods. Outputted parameters are: the collagen fiber orientation distribution, aligned collagen content and the degree of collagen fiber dispersion along the principal orientation. We demonstrate its application to determine collagen microstructure in the human optic nerve head, showing its capability to accurately capture characteristic structural features including radial fiber alignment in the innermost layers of the bounding sclera and a circumferential collagen ring in the mid-stromal tissue. Higher spatial resolution rendering of individual lamina cribrosa beams within the nerve head is also demonstrated. Validation of the method is provided in the form of correlative results from wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) and application of the presented method to other fibrous tissues.

Slide-free imaging of hematoxylin-eosin stained whole-mount tissues using combined third-harmonic generation and three-photon fluorescence microscopy
摘要： Intraoperative margin assessment of surgical tissues during cancer surgery is clinically important, especially in the case of tissue conserving surgery like Mohs micrographic surgery in which minimization of the surgical area is considered crucial. Frozen pathology is the gold standard of assessing excised tissues for signs of remaining cancerous lesions. The current protocol, however, is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Instead of the complex frozen sectioning, staining, and traditional white light microscopy imaging protocol, optically-sectioned histopathological imaging of hematoxylin-eosin stained whole-mount skin tissues with a sub-femtoliter resolution is demonstrated by using nonlinear microscopy in this study. With our proposed method, the reagents of staining and the contrast of imaging are fully consistent with the current clinical standard of frozen pathology, thus facilitating rapid intraoperative assessment of surgical tissues for future applications.

High-order harmonic generation of pulses with multiple timescales: selection rules, carrier envelope phase and cutoff energy
摘要： High harmonic generation (HHG) is sensitive to the carrier envelope phase (CEP) of its driving laser field if it is a sufficiently short pulse (several-cycle pulse). Here we show that strong CEP effects can also be found in HHG from long duration multi-cycle pulses (up to 200 fs at 800 nm central wavelength). We find that HHG from multi-cycle pulses may be CEP dependent when the driving pulse exhibits two distinct timescales (multi-timescale pulse): (i) a short timescale associated with the average frequency, and (ii) a long timescale associated with the pulse’s temporal periodicity. The interplay of these timescales results in significant changes to both the cutoff frequency, and the appearance of symmetry allowed harmonics in the spectrum as function of CEP, similar to HHG from several-cycle pulses. We relate this effect to the multi-timescale intensity variations in the driving pulse, and construct an analytical condition to access the phenomenon. Lastly, we numerically demonstrate reconstruction of the CEP through HHG from long duration multi-timescale pulses. Our work may be useful in several areas of strong-field physics and attosecond science, for example, allowing spectroscopy of multi-timescale processes (e.g. HHG from vibrationally active media), and paving the way towards CEP characterisation using long pulses.

Pressure dependence of high order harmonic generation in nitrogen molecular gas and atmospheric air
摘要： The effect of the variation of the gas pressure on the high harmonic generation (HHG) from nitrogen molecular gas (N2) and atmospheric air with ultrashort intense laser pulses is measured. The optimum pressure in the interaction region of a gas jet for maximizing the HHG yield is determined for both gases. Enhancement of the HHG output and its extension to higher harmonic orders are observed around the optimum pressure value of 0.33 bar. Theoretical calculations based on one-dimensional models explain this effect and provide reasonable agreement with experimental results.

Radial multipliers in solutions of the Helmholtz equations
摘要： We define radial multipliers using solutions of the Helmholtz equation, which depend on the radial coordinate, and we find the recurrence relations between them in the space of any dimension m > 1, in which the Helmholtz operator is defined. It is shown that the procedure of differentiation of these multipliers leads to a system of solutions of the Helmholtz equation, represented as products of the radial multipliers and harmonic polynomials. Theorems about the properties of radial multipliers and the structure of harmonic polynomials in the solutions of Helmholtz equation are given. These solutions constructed using radial multipliers and harmonic polynomials are proposed to be used in gradient elasticity for multi-layered domains with spherical and cylindrical boundaries, since they allow to present boundary conditions in explicit algebraic form.

[IEEE 2018 IEEE International Conference on Electrical Engineering and Photonics (EExPolytech) - Saint Petersburg, Russia (2018.10.22-2018.10.23)] 2018 IEEE International Conference on Electrical Engineering and Photonics (EExPolytech) - Signal Distortion Decreasing in Envelope Tracking Power Amplifiers
摘要： When amplifying signals with a high peak to average power ratio, the efficiency of linear radio frequency (RF) power amplifiers (PA) is reduced to about 30%. This flaw can be noticeably corrected by using envelope tracking technology. However, using switched mode PAs of envelope signal (ES) is accompanied by the emergence of nonlinear distortions, which can appear as undesirable components in the RF PA signal spectrum. One of the ways to reduce the negative influence of the switched mode is to use ES PA of multicell structure. The paper covers the issues of the ES PA number of cells influence on its efficiency and output signal distortion, as well as its influence on the efficiency and output signal distortion of the RF PA. It is shown that rational choice of the number of cells allows to increase the efficiency of ES PA from 94 through 98% and to reduce the level of intermodulation components in the envelope signal spectrum by 20 ... 25 dB.

Synthesis, crystal structures, second harmonic generation response and temperature phase transitions of two noncentrosymmetric Cu(II)-hybrid halides compounds: [(R)-C7H16N2][CuX4] (X?= Cl or Br)
摘要： (R)-(+)-3-aminoquinuclidine was used in the synthesis of [(R)-C7H16N2][CuCl4] (1) and [(R)-C7H16N2][CuBr4] (2), which both contain similar [CuX4]2- anions (X = Cl or Br). The structures of the two compounds were determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The use of enantiomerically pure sources of (R)-C7H14N2 forces crystallographic noncentrosymmetry. These materials crystallize in the chiral space group P212121 (No. 19), which exhibits the enantiomorphic crystal class 222 (D2). In the molecular arrangement, the [CuX4]2- anions are linked to the organic cations through N-H...X and C-H...X hydrogen bonds to form cation-anion-cation molecular units, which are held together by means of offset face-to-face interactions giving a three-dimensional network. Thermal stability of the crystals was ascertained by TG measurement. Compounds (1) and (2) display several phases transition with higher transition temperature at T = 100°C. The Kurtz and Perry powder method using Nd:YAG laser shows that their second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiencies are about 0.81 and 0.82 times as large as that of KH2PO4 (KDP), respectively. Such a chiral hybrid metal halides skeleton could provide a new platform for future engineering in the areas including information storage, light modulators and optoelectronic functionalities.
