A water-free, multi-wavelength diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser is demonstrated to yield a maximum output energy of 131 mJ at a pulse repetition frequency of 100 Hz and with pulse width of 9.6 ns. Zemax simulations informed the selection of a 0.8 at.% doping concentration in Nd:YAG crystals, which promoted a near-Gaussian gain profile. Thermal management was optimized through thermal insulation between the crystals and LDAs, combined with thermoelectric coolers (TECs), heat sinks for precise crystal temperature stabilization, and forced-air cooling for the LDAs. An electro-optic Q-switch based on deuterated potassium dihydrogen phosphate (DKDP) enabled stable pulse generation. The system operated reliably at repetition rates of 50-100 Hz, delivering up to 169.5 mJ per pulse at 80 Hz with pulse width ~8.8 ns and 131 mJ at pulse repetition of 100 Hz with pulse width of ~9.6 ns. The energy fluctuations of the RMS are better than 2.2%. Beam quality factors were measured as Mₓ² = 2.61 and Mᵧ² = 3.31. As far as we know, this is the first demonstration using multi-wavelength laser diode arrays as the pump source to achieve >100 mJ single-pulse energy and >10 MW peak power at a pulse repetition of 100 Hz under water-free cooling, while maintaining good beam quality.

In this paper, we design a novel orthogonal time frequency space modulation based differential chaos shift keying (OTFS-DCSK) transceiver for reliable information transmissions. In this design, we exploit the orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation which is a two-dimensional modulation designed in the delay-Doppler domain, to combat multiplicative channel fading. Besides, since the OTFS-DCSK signal matrix is rank-1, we propose to utilize a singular vector decomposition (SVD) aided detection at the receiver to suppress the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) to further enhance the reliability. Thanks to the diversity obtained from OTFS modulation and the noise-suppression achieved by the SVD aided detection, the proposed OTFS-DCSK transceiver significantly improves the reliability performance, particular in the high-mobility wireless communications over the dual-dispersive channels caused by multipath propagation effects and Doppler shift effects. Simulation results validate the proposed OTFS-DCSK system outperforms the benchmark systems over AWGN, multipath and dual-dispersive fading channels.
Tunable 2∼3-μm femtosecond lasers are of high interest in various applications, such as medical diagnostics and molecular spectroscopy. Cr:ZnSe/ZnS is extremely suited for broadband tunable femtosecond lasers due to its excellent emission bands. In this article, we demonstrate a wavelength-tunable Kerr-lens mode-locked Cr:ZnS laser by utilizing a birefringent filter. The group delay dispersion of the operation and the thickness of the birefringent are finely optimized. With the rotation of the birefringent filter, the scheme offers a tuning bandwidth of over 300 nm from 2,220 nm to 2,520 nm. To the best of our knowledge, it is the broadest tuning range among the reported femtosecond Cr:ZnS lasers.
The high-frequency measurement of downhole vibration signal is vital for the analyses of abnormal vibration signal in the process of drilling. In this work, an acquisition method of downhole vibration high-frequency measurement signal based on compressed sensing technology is proposed. Moreover, the establishment method of sparse dictionary and observation matrix is studied in-depth, and an OMP algorithm against spectrum leakage is proposed. The performance of the proposed method has been investigated via simulations by varying the applied signals over 100 times. The result demonstrated that the proposed approach captures the high-frequency signal at the equivalent sampling rate of 390 MS/s by utilizing a low-speed ADCs with a sampling rate of 65 MS/s and a pseudo random binary sequence. This method provides a new way to acquire the high-frequency measurement data of downhole vibration, and provides favorable data support for mastering the comprehensive law of downhole vibration and diagnosing downhole abnormal vibration.

Ovarian endometrioma is a common form of endometriosis, which may cause infertility, dysmenorrhea and pelvic pain in women of reproductive age. Although surgery is the treatment of choice for endometriomas, recurrence poses a formidable frustration. This study investigated potential risk factors of endometriomas recurrence, aiming to better understand its pathogenesis. A total of 307 patients with endometriomas were followed up for an average of 28.6 months and the 1-, 2- and 3-year cumulative recurrence rate was 9.5%, 21.9%, and 29.2%, respectively. Twenty-one potential risk factors for endometriomas recurrence were evaluated using Cox’s proportional hazards models. Total revised American Fertility Society(rAFS) score was significantly associated with higher recurrence(OR=1.858, 95% CI=1.122–3.075, P=0.016), as well as younger age at surgery(OR=0.953, 95% CI=0.915–0.992, P=0.020). Semiradical surgical treatment was defined as surgical removal of cyst plus hysterectomy with preservation of bilateral or unilateral ovary, and was a significant factor that was associated with lower recurrence than the conservative surgery(OR=0.318, 95% CI=0.107–0.951, P=0.040). Postoperative pregnancy was favorable factors for disease recurrence(OR=0.217, 95% CI=0.102–0.460, P=0.000). The results suggest that endometrioma recurrence is inversely associated with age at surgery and postoperative pregnancy, and may correlate with total rAFS score and conservative surgery method.

Mn-Co-Ni-O system semiconductor ceramic is the most common infrared thermistor material, but it has a weak bonding strength with the conventional Au electrode. In this paper, the Ti/Au double layer electrode was used as electrode of semiconductor ceramic wafer, and the effects of Ti/Au electrode on interfacial bonding strength and noise factor were investigated. It is found that the Ti/Au electrode has a good bonding strength with the semiconductor ceramic wafer, and the thermistor has relative low noise factor. The influence mechanism of Ti/Au electrode on noise factor is due to the titanium oxide, which is formed by Ti element diffusion through Au layer and reaction with oxygen. During the heat treatment, the Ti layer reacts with the wafer substrate, in the meantime, the Ti element diffuses through the Au layer. Elevating the heat treatment temperature, increasing the thickness of Au layer or decreasing the thickness of Ti layer can inhibit the diffusion of Ti element to the Au surface, and the noise factor is declined consequently.
