Achromatic linear polarization rotators by tandem twisted nematic liquid crystal cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
An achromatic linear polarization rotator based on a tandem-2ϕ-twisted nematic liquid crystal cell (tandem-2ϕ-TNLC cell, where 2ϕ represents the total twisted angle) is theoretically analyzed and experimentally demonstrated.

Double-frequency grating shearing interferometer with built-in phase-shifting function for robust multi-level phase retrieval

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a novel interferometer and signal process to retrieve two-dimensional signals with multilevel phases. The interferometer is based on a shearing interferometry with double-frequency grating, and phase-shifting ...

Active thermal-fuse for stopping blue light leakage of white light-emitting diodes driven by constant current

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
In this study, we proposed and demonstrated a circuit design for solving problems related to blue light leakage (e.g., eye damage) when phosphor-converted white light-emitting diodes (pcW-LEDs) overheat.

Occlusion and Deformation Handling Visual Tracking for UAV via Attention-Based Mask Generative Network

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Although the performance of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) tracking has benefited from the successful application of discriminative correlation filters (DCF) and convolutional neural networks (CNNs), UAV tracking under occlusion and deformation remains a ...

Spatial-Coded Phosphor Coating for High-Efficiency White LEDs

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2017
In this paper, a new structure of spatial-coded coating phosphor is proposed and effectively benefits the efficiency enhancement in the white light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The spatial-coded phosphor plate contains two subregions.

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

A multi-task approach to face deblurring

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking, 2019
Image deblurring is a foundational problem with numerous application, and the face deblurring subject is one of the most interesting branches. We propose a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based architecture that embraces multi-scale deep features.

Multilayer Self‐Limiting Electrospray Deposition via Stepped Voltage Bias

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐limiting electrospray deposition (SLED) uses a high voltage to generate and deposit a charged payload on a target surface. The coating retains its charge, repelling newly arriving material. SLED thickness can be decreased by applying a secondary bias to the target.

Silicon photonics for optical interconnects [PDF]

open access: yes2014 16th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (ICTON), 2014
Integration density, channel scalability, low switching energy and low insertion loss are the major prerequisites for on-chip Wavelength Division Multiplexing systems. A number of device geometries have already been demonstrated that fulfil these criteria, at least in part, but combining all of the requirements is still a difficult challenge.

Uniform Amorphization of Crystalline Silicon Surfaces Enabled by Deep Ultraviolet Femtosecond Laser Pulses

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Deep‐UV (258 nm) femtosecond pulses enable uniform amorphous silicon writing on Si(100)/(111) with a six‐fold larger fluence amorphization window than NIR methods. Optimized fluence and overlap yield 20–45 nm uniform and continuous amorphous layers. Microscopy shows sharp interfaces, and real‐time reflectivity reveals nanosecond melt–resolidification ...
