Photoacoustic temperature imaging based on multi-wavelength excitation
摘要： Building further upon the high spatial resolution offered by ultrasonic imaging and the high optical contrast yielded by laser excitation of photoacoustic imaging, and exploiting the temperature dependence of photoacoustic signal amplitudes, this paper addresses the question whether the rich information given by multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT) allows to obtain 3D temperature images. Numerical simulations and experimental results are reported on agarose phantoms containing gold nanoparticles and the effects of shadowing, reconstruction flaws, etc. on the accuracy are determined.

Plasmonic nickel nanoparticles decorated on to LaFeO3 photocathode for enhanced solar hydrogen generation
摘要： Plasmonic Ni nanoparticles were incorporated into LaFeO3 photocathode (LFO-Ni) to excite the surface plasmon resonances (SPR) for enhanced light harvesting for enhancing the photoelectrochemical (PEC) hydrogen evolution reaction. The nanostructured LFO photocathode was prepared by spray pyrolysis method and Ni nanoparticles were incorporated on to the photocathode by spin coating technique. The LFO-Ni photocathode demonstrated strong optical absorption and higher current density where the untreated LFO film exhibited a maximum photocurrent of 0.036 mA/cm2 at 0.6 V vs RHE, and when incorporating 2.84 mmol Ni nanoparticles the photocurrent density reached a maximum of 0.066 mA/cm2 at 0.6 V vs RHE due to the SPR effect. This subsequently led to enhanced hydrogen production, where more than double (2.64 times) the amount of hydrogen was generated compared to the untreated LFO photocathode. Ni nanoparticles were modelled using Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) analysis and the results showed optimal particle size in the range of 70e100 nm for Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) enhancement.

摘要： An anisotropic hybrid implicit-explicit finite-difference time-domain (HIE-FDTD) scheme is developed to investigate the magnetically biased graphene. The anisotropic conductivity of the graphene is calculated in this scheme. The time increment in proposed method is not related with the fine meshes in the graphene sheet, so this scheme has much higher simulation efficiency than the conventional FDTD scheme.

Preparation and optical properties of angle-dependent photonic crystals based on multi-layer films
摘要： The CreSiO2 photonic crystals, featured with two-dimensional structure and optical variation, was prepared by magnetron sputtering and electron beam lithography method. The finite difference time domain method (FDTD) is used to study the light-modulated characteristics of photonic crystals. Hue difference (⊿H) was used to evaluate the optical variations of photonic crystals, and bigger ⊿H indicates stronger angle dependency of color variation. Various parameters are analyzed for their impact upon ⊿H, including hole geometry (radium, r), hole gap (distance between the centers of two circles, d) and hole depth (h). The results matched the ones from simulation. Carbon quantum dots and up-conversion nanocrystals NaYF4 were inserted into the photonic crystals, and testing results of these doped crystals showed optical variation of fluorescence in the UV and IR region.

Numerical study of nanoscale biosensor based on surface plasmon polariton propagation in Mach-Zehnder interferometer structure
摘要： In this paper, we numerically investigate a nanoscale plasmonic biosensor based on Mach-Zehnder interferometry. The operation of Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) biosensor is examined based on two methods. In the first method, in which the transmission of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) modes is investigated under different refractive indices of sample medium as well as different dimensions, the best transmission rate achieved about 56.6% which is resulted by refractive index variation about 0.045 for the length 12 μm and width 80 nm of the gold layer. Also, the sensitivity, figure of merit (FOM) and quality factor (Q-factor) of MZI are examined for different geometries by utilizing the alternative method. It is realized that for the constant length, increasing the thickness of gold layer has significantly led to increased Q-factor and FOM. On the other hand, considering fixed thickness of the Au layer and three different lengths, the major outcome is that as the length of biosensor increases, the sensitivity, Q-factor as well as FOM follow an upward trend. Finally, inserting two distinct additional gold layers on top of the main gold layer, resulted in an extreme increase for the sensitivity and FOM of the plasmonic MZI biosensors with respect to the MZI biosensor without additional layer.

UPML-ABC of dispersive materials for the unconditionally stable 2-D WLP-FDTD method
摘要： In this paper, uniaxial anisotropic perfectly matched layer (UPML) absorbing boundary condition (ABC) of dispersive materials is presented for 2-D finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method with weighted Laguerre polynomials (WLP). Taking advantage of the auxiliary differential equation (ADE) technique, our proposed algorithm avoids not only the complicated formulations but also the convolution integral. Using ADE scheme, the relationship between field components and auxiliary differential variables is derived in Laguerre domain. Substituting auxiliary differential variables into UPML-ABC, the electric field E of order q can be expressed directly by magnetic field H in Laguerre domain. Inserting magnetic field H of order q into electric field, and using central difference scheme, the formulations of uniaxial anisotropic dispersive media PML are obtained. One numerical example of wave propagation in 2-D dispersive materials is simulated. Numerical results validate the efficiency of the presented method.

Finite-Difference Time-Domain Modeling for Electromagnetic Wave Analysis of Human Voxel Model at Millimeter-Wave Frequencies
摘要： The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) modeling of a human voxel model at millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies is presented. It is very important to develop the proper geometrical and electrical modeling of a human voxel model suitable for accurate electromagnetic (EM) analysis. Although there are many human phantom models available, their voxel resolution is too poor to use for the FDTD study of EM wave interaction with human tissues. In this paper, we develop a proper human voxel model suitable for mmWave FDTD analysis using the voxel resolution enhancement technique and the image smoothing technique. The former can improve the resolution of the human voxel model and the latter can alleviate staircasing boundaries of the human voxel model. Quadratic complex rational function is employed for the electrical modeling of human tissues in the frequency range of 6–100 GHz. Massage passing interface-based parallel processing is also applied to dramatically speed up FDTD calculations. Numerical examples are used to illustrate the validity of the mmWave FDTD simulator developed here for bio electromagnetics studies.

摘要： The advancement of computer technology has led numerical methods to obtain a widespread usage. One of the most frequently used numerical methods in recent years is finite difference time domain method (FDTD). The behaviour of electromagnetic waves at the boundaries of the problem space has been studied by using perfectly matched layer (PML) type boundary conditions in FDTD.On the other hand, the majority of the substances in the universe are plasma. Plasma is a well known reconfigurable medium with different dielectric and conductive properties. Operating frequency of a plasma antenna is investigated in this paper. The field distributions around the plasma antenna have been evaluated using three dimensional FDTD. It has been shown that the plasma antenna can operate with characteristics similar to a wire antenna. C/C++ and MATLAB programming environments are used for simulations.

Effect of Conduction Band Non-Parabolicity on the Nonlinear Optical Properties in GaAs/Ga1?xAlxAs Double Semi-V-shaped Quantum Wells
摘要： In this paper, we investigate the effect of conduction band non-parabolicity (NPBE) on the third harmonic generation(THG), the linear and nonlinear intersub-band optical absorption coefficients (OACs) related with electronic states of double semi-V-shaped GaAs/Ga1?x Alx As quantum wells(QWs) by using the compact-density-matrix approach. Simultaneously, the work is performed in the position dependent effective mass in order to compute the electronic structure for the system by the finite difference and self-consistent techniques. We also compare the results with and without considering NPBE. It is found that: (1) the NPBE has a significant influence on the sub-band energy levels of double semi-V-shaped QWs, and (2) the amplitude and position of the resonant peaks of the THG and nonlinear OACs in the case of considering NPBE show complicated behavior due to the energy dependent effective mass m*(E) where the energy value was chosen self-consistently.

B-scan wave outline analysis in numerical modeling of ground-penetrating radar response from layered rough interfaces
摘要： Imaging of rough interfaces in a layered structure requires full understanding of the characteristics of their ground penetrating radar (GPR) echoes. In this study, a finite-difference time-domain computational model using a uniaxial perfectly matched layer boundary for GPR demining of layered rough interfaces is constructed. On the basis of this model, the numerical results of B-scan echoes from two-layered and three-layered rough interfaces with different degrees of roughness are obtained and compared with the profiles of corresponding rough surfaces. These results and comparisons highlight the relationship between the B-scan wave outlines and the profile of the layered rough interfaces. The effect of roughness of the interface on the B-scan echoes are analyzed, and the influence of the upper rough surface profile on the shape of the B-scan wave outline from the lower rough surface is discussed.
