Interface plays an important role in photovoltaic devices, due to the existence of surface defects and surface dangling bonds of semiconductor materials. For photovoltaic devices, defects on the surface of semiconductor materials can lead to the recombination of charge carriers at the interface and hinder the transport of carriers in the device, resulting in the degradation of device performance. We presented a simple and efficient method of interface treatment by oxygen plasma for PEDOT:PSS/silicon hybrid solar cell. Compared to the cell without oxygen plasma treatment, the cell with oxygen plasma treatment revealed a significant increase in power conversion efficiency (PCE), which resulted in interface control by oxygen plasma control can be able to effectively optimize the performance of organic-silicon hybrid solar cell.

Talbot self-imaging has been utilized for arbitrary repetition-rate control of optical pulse trains and frequency combs, which are important for many applications. The fundamental theory of generalized Talbot self-imaging has been presented for the design of temporal and spectral phase operations, while the effects of potential phase modulation distortions and residual dispersions on repetition-rate control in experiments remain to be investigated. In this paper, numerical studies are conducted for evaluating the feasibility of yielding arbitrary repetition-rate control of optical pulse trains and frequency combs, and it provides additional insights into the optimal design conditions for practical implementation of the scheme.

In this study, HTL optimisation techniques have been used to analyse a double halide perovskite (which is lead-free) Cs2NaGaBr6 n-i-p solar cell in order to improve photovoltaic performance. A robust solar cell modeling tool called SCAPS- 1D was used for all of the simulations. The suggested photovoltaic design uses a double perovskite material. With a bandgap of 1.762 eV, Cs2NaGaBr6 is a direct band gap halide double perovskite material that is extremely close to organicinorganic perovskite material. With an improved hole transport layer (HTL) doping (1×1018 cm-3–1×1022 cm-3), the proposed solar cell had a better efficiency of 26.19%. Additionally, Jsc, Voc, FF, and PCE (η) have all been examined as photovoltaic performance parameters. In order to create effective Pb-free perovskite for solar applications, the proposed device may be used.

When the missile is flying at high speed, the surface shape and refractive index of the conformal dome will change due to the aero-optic effect, which results in different image quality at different flight times. Hence, it is of great significance to study the influence of flight time on aero-optical imaging quality degradation of the conformal dome. Taking an airto- air missile as an example, this paper uses Zernike polynomials, image simulation, and peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) to evaluate the degeneration of the aero-optical imaging quality of an ellipsoid dome with a flight time range of 0-10 s under varying conditions. The simulation results show that, with the increase of flight time, (1) the dynamic range of tilt, defocus, astigmatism, and coma increase; (2) the PSNRs of the simulated images decrease. Therefore, the effect of flight time on the aero-optic imaging quality degradation of the ellipsoidal dome is gradually serious.

We can achieve a high frequency with a low-phase-noise microwave photonics signal with the help of an optoelectronic oscillator (OEO). In this paper, we propose an OEO based on an external modulator and a dispersive component that provides frequency selection properties similar to those of the photonic filter, i.e. π phase-shifted fiber Bragg grating (π PS-FBG), which has a fixed center frequency of 1550nm. By changing the wavelength of an optical carrier signal, we can tune the oscillating frequency of the OEO. The π PS-FBG reflected signal was passed through parallelly connected single-mode fibers of 0.1 Km, 0.2 Km, and 0.4 Km length. An extra delay in the loop is provided for locking the oscillating frequency. we use π PS-FBG filters designed for the wavelengths 1550 nm to 1555 nm and the corresponding frequency of oscillation was observed between 4.63 GHz and 40.17 GHz. We make observations of the oscillating frequency. With the help of simulated results, the overall model has been theoretically analyzed and verified.

Nonlinear rays are described by the eikonal function, which bridges the gap between wave and geometrical optics. These nonlinear rays follow a path that is always normal to the phase front as it propagates in space. In this paper, we explore how to augment the classical geometrical ray-optics approach to calculate the forces acting on the sphere in an optical trap developed by Ashkin, such that non-linear rays can replace linear rays in the calculation. The greatest advantage of such an approach would be be the capacity to model the orbital angular momentum imparted on the sphere using a Laguerre-Gaussian spatial mode laser. The non-linear rays associated with any convering wavefield can be traced towards their intersection point on the surface of the sphere and for each one of these ’rays’, the scattering force, gradient force, and torque can be derived using the Equations defined by Ashkin. Integration of these forces reveals the total three-dimensional force acting on the sphere as well as total rotational forces which can be decomposed into a ’vertical torque’ and ’horizontal torque.’ As well as investigating the single beam dielectric trap in the model of Ashkin, we additionally investigate the dual beam trap for all cases, which has the benefit of enhanced trapping forces.

We propose a design for all-dielectric (gallium phosphide, GaP) nanoantenna to enhance single molecule fluorescence. The slotted GaP nanodisk exhibits strong scattering and limited optical loss, resulting in more than 30× excitation enhancement growth at the resonance position. Our proposed scheme also enables precise manipulation of the local density of optical states, leading to a nearly one order of magnitude increments in quantum yield for individual dye (original quantum yield is 0.01) and 12× emission enhancement. We benchmark the overall fluorescent enhancement for the four commercial dye colors (original quantum yield is 0.3) and achieved one-order of enhancement higher than commercialized zero-mode waveguide (ZMW) in the simulation. Our GaP-based design not only provides a solution for next-generation chips for DNA and protein sequencing, but also contributes to single-entity interactions, portable fluorescence detection, and integrated devices with quantum light sources.

According to the requirement of aircraft test mission, a set of radiant heat simulation system which can be used in complex extreme environment is developed in this paper. The system is mainly composed of optical subsystem, mechanical structure, cooling subsystem and control subsystem. The design process of this system mainly includes optical system design, mechanical structure design, cooling system design, control system design and environmental adaptability design. The radiant heat simulation system needs to ensure the normal operation under the extreme environment of low pressure (5kPa), high humidity (90%RH), high temperature (75°C) and low temperature (-20°C). In order to solve this difficulty, the system developed a special light source protection cabin. The protection chamber can provide normal temperature, normal pressure and low humidity working environment for the light source.

The current work proposes an optimized design for 2-bit synchronous up counter using silicon nitride on insulator optical microring resonators (MRRs). The research involves exploring the existing designs of up counter structures based on MRRs, and then minimizing the number of rings being used in the proposed model. The proposed design uses four MRRs for Synchronous up counter operation and the model has been validated through the MATLAB simulation result. The main component of the design is the MRR which can act as a switch depending upon the output at the drop port or the through port according to the MRR being in an on-resonance or off-resonance state respectively. The principle of the MRR is that on applying a vertical pump signal over the ring, the non-linear refractive index of the ring undergoes a temporary blue shift resulting due to π- phase shift in the ring, changing the resonant frequency of operation of the ring. The average pump power required for the blue shift can be obtained from the phase shift vs. the average pump power graph simulated in MATLAB. This shift in resonance frequency is employed to switching action for the signal to be output at the drop port or the through port of the MRR and based on the drive signal inputs of the present state and the clock to the rings in the resonator structure which act as pump signal over the ring, the next state of the counter is determined.

Graphene is considered a suitable atomically thick layer on photocathodes, and the photoemission performance of the graphene-covered photocathodes can be enhanced through Cs/O activation. To investigate the effects of the substrate materials beneath the graphene layer on Cs/O deposition and photoemission performance. We compare the activation processes and photoemission performances of few-layer graphene supported by nickel and copper to investigate the effects of the substrate materials beneath the graphene layer on Cs/O deposition and photoemission performance. By Cs/O activation, the nickel-supported few-layer graphene can possess a higher response at 405 nm, while the copper-supported cathode can acquire a wider spectral response and better stability. After degradation, we discover that the samples supported by nickel and copper can act differently through the additional Cs/O deposition processes, while the surface barrier heights of both samples are further decreased.
