Stacking chirped pulse optical parametric amplification

Stacking chirped pulse optical parametric amplification based on a home-built Yb(3+)-doped mode-locked fiber laser and an all-fiber pulse stacker has been demonstrated. Energic 11 mJ shaped pulses with pulse duration of 2.3 ns and a net total gain of higher than 1.1 x 10(7) at fluctuation less than 2% rms are achieved by optical parametric amplification pumped by a Q-switched Nd:YAG frequency-doubled laser, which provides a simple and efficient amplification scheme for temporally shaped pulses by stacking chirped pulse.

氮磷肥配施对夏玉米土壤含水量及水分利用效率的影响

随土壤剖面深度的增加,土壤含水量逐渐降低,上层土壤含水量变幅大于下层。在同一氮肥水平下,夏玉米各生长期内0~50 cm土层含水量呈施磷处理高于不施磷处理,50~110 cm土层则反之。苗期—拔节—灌浆—收获期0~110 cm土壤蓄水量呈升高—降低—升高趋势;苗期呈氮磷配施处理高于单施氮肥处理,其它生长期氮肥与磷肥水平为120 kg/hm2配施处理最高;表层50 cm土层蓄水量均呈现氮磷配施处理高于单施氮肥处理,50~110 cm土层则反之。氮磷配施能显著提高产量及水分利用效率,二者均以配施磷肥120 kg/hm2处理最高;当施磷量超过120 kg/hm2后,产量和水分利用效率反而有下降趋势。

松花江流域河流泥沙及其对人类活动的响应特征

对松花江流域主要水文站输沙量变化的分析表明:51年来,嫩江除1998年发生洪水外其余年份输沙量变化不大,第二松花江输沙量表现为明显的下降趋势,松花江干流输沙量也表现为下降趋势,而松花江整个流域在1979年之前为下降趋势,1979年之后为上升趋势。松花江干流区域和第二松花江为主要的泥沙来源区,分别占整个松花江流域输沙量的72.1%和16.2%。通过对单位降雨侵蚀力输沙量的分析,松花江流域输沙量负荷的变化与流域内重大历史事件、国家政策等人为活动的变化密切相关。"大跃进"时期嫩江流域输沙量负荷显著增大,三年自然灾害时期各区段输沙量负荷都出现峰值,"文革"时期各区段输沙量负荷起伏变化比较大,改革开放特别是家庭联产承包责任制实施以后,各区段输沙量负荷都呈现显著增长的趋势,90年代自然灾害频发使输沙量负荷持续出现峰值,直至1999年退耕还林后输沙量负荷才有所下降,但此后输沙量负荷又有不同程度的增长趋势。

黄土旱塬冬小麦水分利用效率及相关生理特性研究

采用Li-6400便携式光合测定系统在模拟光照条件下,通过对冬小麦叶片生理指标及其相应环境因子的测定,研究了小麦的生理指标和叶片水分利用效率的动态变化规律及其对环境因子的响应。结果表明:净光合速率日变化呈不明显的双峰曲线,蒸腾速率日变化呈明显的倒"U"型曲线,且不同生育期两者峰值出现的时间不同。拔节期环境因子对生理指标的影响要比灌浆期明显的多。光合有效辐射和CO2浓度是对净光合速率和叶片蒸腾速率影响最强烈的环境因子。在小麦整个生长过程中,温湿度对气孔导度的影响在逐渐增大,对胞间CO2浓度的影响也比较明显。小麦叶片水分利用效率的日变化呈不明显的双峰曲线,其峰值出现的时间早于净光合速率和蒸腾速率峰值出现的时间。灌浆期日平均WUE比拔节期低30.5%。小麦净光合速率、蒸腾速率和气孔导度三者之间极显著相关,叶片温度与气孔导度显著负相关。

CLIGEN非降水要素在黄土塬区的适用性评估

许多基于物理机制的水文和作物模型需要日序列气象数据来驱动,CLIGEN是为WEPP等模型产生气候输入文件的天气发生器,可以产生10个日序列气象变量来满足这种需要,但是其在中国的适用性需要进行评估。研究的目标是利用黄土高原陕西长武1957~2001年的气象数据评估CLIGEN产生非降水要素(最高温度、最低温度、露点温度、太阳辐射和风速)的能力。结果表明,CLIGEN对最高温度、最低温度和露点温度的模拟效果较好,对太阳辐射和极端气候事件的模拟效果较差,对风速的模拟效果最差。相关性检验表明CLIGEN很好地保持了气象要素的季节性,这对模拟农业生产是非常重要的;但是没有保留气象要素逐日的自相关和互相关性,进而导致产生的温度变化不符合连续渐变的规律。

水文条件对紫色土坡面土壤侵蚀及养分流失的影响

采用人工模拟降雨试验,研究水文条件对紫色土坡面土壤侵蚀及氮和磷养分流失的影响。试验处理包括2个施肥水平(低肥和高肥水平),4个水文条件(自由下渗、土壤水分饱和、壤中流、壤中流+降雨)和一个降雨强度(60 mm/h,历时60 min)。结果表明:壤中流+降雨和土壤水分饱和条件下的土壤侵蚀量分别是自由下渗条件下的3.1和1.7倍,同自由下渗相比,壤中流、壤中流+降雨和土壤水分饱和条件下,地表径流中NO3-N、HPO4-P的浓度和流失量有显著增加;低肥水平条件下,自由下渗、土壤水分饱和、壤中流和壤中流+降雨地表径流中,NO3-N的浓度分别是0.88、58.90、698.41和87.80 mg/L,对应水文条件下地表径流中,HPO4-P的浓度分别是0.252、0.322、0.811和0.383 mg/L,高肥水平条件下,径流中的NO3-N和HPO4-P的浓度也有相同的趋势;土壤水分饱和条件下,地表径流中NO3-N和HPO4-P的流失量分别是自由下渗条件下的27~39和1.3倍,壤中流+降雨条件下,地表径流中NO3-N和HPO4-P的流失量分别是自由下渗条件下的100~114和1.5~1.7倍,同时,壤中流+降雨和土壤...

延河流域径流和输沙周期变化特征的小波分析

用延河流域甘谷驿站1953—2000年实测月径流深和输沙模数数据和1957—2000年月均面降雨数据,采用小波多尺度方法,分析延河流域主要水文要素的周期及其变化特征。结果表明:延河流域降雨、径流和输沙存在着显著的周期,且其大小非常接近,为3.0、6.5、13.0和23.0 a。降雨、径流和输沙主周期分别是3.0、23.0和23.0 a。延河流域20世纪70年代后降雨量年际分配趋于均匀。3 a对应的小尺度上,70—80年代初3个水文序列对应曲线出现紊乱现象,与该时期大规模水利水土保持措施的修建有关。80年代后,由于水利水土保持措施减水减沙效益的削弱,3条曲线重新趋于一致。13 a对应的中尺度和23 a对应的大尺度上,均出现径流和输沙曲线不同步,或者滞后于降雨曲线现象。降水是径流和输沙周期性变化的主要外动力因子,人类活动导致的流域下垫面变化则是不可忽视的另一重要原因。

Ultrafast Kerr rotations and zero-field dephasing time of electron spins in InAs/GaAs quantum disks

Time-resolved Kerr rotation (TRKR) measurements based on pump-probe arrangement were carried out at 5 K on the monolayer fluctuation induced InAs/GaAs quantum disks grown on GaAs substrate without external magnetic field. The lineshape of TRKR signals shows an unusual dependence on the excitation wavelength, especially antisymmetric step-shaped structures appearing when the excitation wavelength was resonantly scanned over the heavy- and light-hole subbands. Moreover, these step structures possess an almost identical decay time of similar to 40 Ps which is believed to be the characteristic spin dephasing time of electrons in the extremely narrow InAs/GaAs quantum disks.

CONTROLLED FORMATION AND CHARACTERISTICS OF INTERFACES IN GAAS/ALGAAS SINGLE QUANTUM-WELLS

The influence of heterostructure quality on transport and optical properties of GaAs/AlGaAs single quantum wells with different qualities was studied. In a conventional sample-A, the transport scattering time and the quantum scattering time are small and close to each other. The interface roughness scattering is a dominant scattering mechanism. From comparison between theory and experiment, interface roughness with fluctuation height 2.5 Angstrom and the lateral size of 50-70 Angstrom were estimated. For samples introducing superlattices instead of AlGaAs layers or by utilizing growth interruption, both the transport and PL measurements showed that interfaces were rather smooth in the samples. The two scattering times are much longer. The interface roughness scattering is relegated to an unimportant position. Results demonstrated that it is important to control the formation of heterostructures in order to improve the interface quality.

Study of GSMBE growth and characteristics of high-quality strained In0.63Ga0.37As/InP quantum wells

High-quality compressively strained In0.63Ga0.37As/InP quantum wells with different well widths (1-11 nm) have been grown coherently on InP substrates using a home-made gas source molecular beam epitaxy (GSMBE) system. The indium composition in the wells of the sample was determined by means of high-resolution X-ray diffraction and its computer simulation. it is found that the exciton transition energies determined by photoluminescence (PL) at 10 K are in good agreement with those calculated using a deformation potential model. Sharp and intense peaks for each well can be well resolved in the 10 K PL spectra. For wells narrower than 4 nm, the line width of the PL peaks are smaller than the theoretical values of the line-width broadening due to 1 hit interface fluctuation, showing that the interface fluctuation of our sample is within 1 ML. For wells of 7 and 9 nm, the PL peak widths are as low as 4.5 meV.

GSMBE growth and PL investigation of lattice-matched InGaAs/InP quantum wells

Using a home-made gas-source molecular beam epitaxy system, high quality InGaAs quantum wells with different well widths lattice-matched to a (001) InP substrate have been obtained. Sharp and intense peaks for each well can be well resolved in the PL spectra for the sample. For well widths larger than similar to 60 Angstrom, the exciton energies are in good agreement with those of calculation. For wells narrower than 40 Angstrom, our line widths are below the theoretical values of line width broadening due to one monolayer interface fluctuation, showing that the interface fluctuation of our sample is within one monolayer.

GROWTH INTERRUPTION INDUCED INTERFACE MICROROUGHNESS IN SINGLE QUANTUM-WELLS

Growth interruption-induced microroughness is studied by photoluminescence (PL) of single quantum wells with different well widths and interruption times. Analysis of the peak splitting in the PL spectra shows that the adjacent peak splittings correspond to well width differences smaller than one monolayer. The number of split peaks increases with increasing well width, saturating when the well width exceeds 11 monolayers. This trend correlates well with the decrease in the lateral dimension of the exciton, which corresponds roughly to the minimum optically sampled area of the interface. For a given quantum well, a plot of the normalized integrated intensities of the split PL peaks versus the well width fluctuation is well described by a Gaussian distribution with an average fluctuation smaller than one monolayer. These results are consistent with the microroughness model.

Growth and photoluminescence of InAlGaN films

Two quaternary InAlGaN films were grown by metal-organic chemical-vapor deposition (MOCVD) on sapphire (0001) substrates with and without high-temperature GaN interlayer, respectively. The structural and optical properties of the quaternary films were investigated by high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD), high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM), temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy and time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) spectroscopy. According to the HRXRD and PL results, it is demonstrated that two samples have the same crystal quality. The TRPL signals of both samples were fitted well as a stretched exponential decay from 14 K to 250 K, indicating significant disorder in the materials, which is attributed to recombination of excitons localized in disorder quantum nanostructures such as quantum dots or quantum disks originating from indium (In) clusters or In composition fluctuation. The cross-section HREM measurement further proves that there exist disorder quantum nanostructures in the quaternary. By investigating the temperature dependence of the dispersive exponent beta, it is shown that the stretched exponential decays of the two samples originate from different mechanisms.

Photoluminescence characterization of 1.3 mu m In(Ga)As/GaAs islands grown by molecular beam epitaxy

1.3 mum wavelength In(Ga)As/GaAs nanometer scale islands grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) were characterized by photoluminescence (PL) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements. It is shown that inhomogeneous broadening of optical emission due to fluctuation of the In0.5Ga0.5As islands both in size and in compositions can be effectively suppressed by introducing a AlAs layer and a strain reduction In0.2Ga0.8As layer overgrown on top of the islands, 1.3mum emission wavelength with narrower line-width less than 20meV at room temperature was obtained.
