Utilizing an aspheric lens and compound ellipsoidal cavity for a laser uniform illumination system
Authors: Lu Yu , Zhang Xiangxiang , Wu Ruilong 
Published: September 2024

To achieve uniform laser illumination of an active imaging system with a small aperture diameter and large field angle, we have developed what we believe to be a novel structure for achieving uniform beam shaping that integrates a laser source, an aspheric lens, and a composite ellipsoidal cavity to enable active laser illumination. Through an aspheric lens, the fundamental mode Gaussian beam is transformed into double Gaussian and flat-top radiation at the target plane. The double Gaussian radiation is further reflected by a complex ellipsoidal cavity, where it is evenly distributed into equal radiation flux. This flux combines with the flat-top radiation, resulting in a uniform distribution at the target plane. The parameters of the complex ellipsoidal cavity are determined using an equalization algorithm. After combining the transmission for flat-top shaping by the aspheric lens and secondary reflection shaping by the composite ellipsoidal cavity, we achieved an aperture measuring 29.7 mm with an aperture angle of 84.0°, at a distance of 2 m from the target plane, with a diameter of 3.6 m, resulting in uniformity reaching 92.7%. RMS and MT/R determine the effectiveness of the compound ellipsoidal cavity design, depending on the maximum reflection angle and transmission angle. MT/R is inversely proportional to the maximum reflection angle, while RMS is directly proportional to the transmission angle. By setting the maximum reflection angle to 32.0° and the transmission angle to 8.0°, we were able to achieve a minimum root-mean-square focusing radius of 108.6 µm along with a minimum effective MT/R ratio of 1.07. The overlap degree between transmission and reflection directly impacts the target plane’s uniformity, adjusted through a defined adjustment factor. Optimizing this factor to 0.9 maximizes the uniformity of the target plane.

A concept for the design of single-stack multilayer mirrors with multiple reflection peaks is presented. Its realization in the infrared is demonstrated by the sputter deposition of TiO2/Al2O3 bilayers on sapphire and HastelloyX substrates and corresponding reflection measurements. Even or odd higher-order interference peaks are selected by adjusting the optical thicknesses of the individual layers. The peak positions are very well reproduced by multiple scattering calculations. With the HastelloyX substrate, a potential application for high temperatures and aggressive atmospheres, e.g., in aircraft turbines, is addressed. A design for matching up to three turbine gas emission bands (CO2, H2O) is proposed.

We report the design of an innovative visible-telecom photon pair source based on counter-propagating spontaneous four wave mixing (CP-SFWM) in a silicon nitride microring resonator. Unlike previous designs, the proposed integrated source achieves automatic phase matching, eliminating the need for dispersion engineering. By employing two lasers at wavelengths of 800 nm and 1550 nm as pumps on opposite ends of the bus waveguides, the resonator generates signal and idler photons at the same wavelengths as the pumps, but propagating in opposite directions. The photon pairs are produced in high-quality factor resonant modes, exhibiting a purity of 1, a brightness of 118.70pairs⋅s−1⋅mW−2, and bandwidths of 157.9 MHz and 79.7 MHz for signal and idler photons, respectively. Our proposal outperforms previous CP-SFWM designs in terms of spectral properties of the photon pairs, emission rate, and scalability, making it an interesting alternative for the implementation of integrated photon pair sources for photonic networks.

Published: September 2024

A compact and ultra-low loss TE-to-TM polarization mode converter based on a hollow hybrid plasmonic waveguide is presented in this work. The incorporation of an air region in the hollow structure results in a refractive index as low as 1, enabling near-lossless mode propagation and conversion. Through the delicate design of multi-functional sections and the optimization of structural dimensions, efficient conversion from the TE mode to the TM mode is achieved. At the operating wavelength of 1550 nm, the converter demonstrates remarkable performance with a mode conversion efficiency of 0.88, a polarization conversion efficiency of 0.92, and an ultra-low insertion loss of 0.012 dB. Additionally, the device boasts a compact size of 8.5 µm while exhibiting excellent performance. This work offers a simple and efficient approach for realizing ultra-low-loss polarization mode conversion, holding promising potential for application in diverse integrated photonic devices.

Achieving few-femtosecond resolution for a pump-probe experiment is crucial to measuring the fastest electron dynamics and for creating superpositions of valence states in quantum systems. However, traditional UV-Vis pump pulses cannot achieve few-fs durations and usually operate at fixed wavelengths. Here, we present, to our knowledge, an unprecedented temporal resolution and pump tuneability for UV-Vis-pumped soft X-ray transient absorption spectroscopy. We have combined few-fs deep-UV to visible tuneable pump pulses from resonant dispersive wave emission in hollow capillary fiber with attosecond soft X-ray probe pulses from high harmonic generation. We achieve sub-5-fs time resolution, sub-fs interferometric stability, and continuous tuneability of the pump pulses from 230 to 700 nm. We demonstrate that the pump can initiate an ultrafast photochemical reaction and that the dynamics at different atomic sites can be resolved simultaneously. These capabilities will allow studies of the fastest electronic dynamics in a large range of photochemical, photobiological and photovoltaic reactions.

Self-stigma–the internalization of negative community attitudes and beliefs about a disease or condition–represents an important barrier to improving patient care outcomes for people living with common mental disorders and diabetes. Integrated behavioral healthcare interventions are recognized as evidence-based approaches to improve access to behavioral healthcare and for improving patient outcomes, including for those with comorbid diabetes, yet their impact on addressing self-stigma remains unclear. Using secondary data from the Integrating Depression and Diabetes Treatment (INDEPENDENT) study–a trial that aimed to improve diabetes outcomes for people with undertreated and comorbid depression in four urban Indian cities via the Collaborative Care Model–we longitudinally analyzed self-stigma scores and evaluated whether change in total self-stigma scores on diabetes outcomes is mediated by depressive symptom severity. Self-stigma scores did not differ longitudinally comparing Collaborative Care Model participants to enhanced standard-of-care participants (mean monthly rate of change in Self-Stigma Scale for Chronic Illness-4 Item scores; B = 0.0087; 95% CI: -0.0018, 0.019, P = .10). Decreases in total self-stigma scores over 12 months predicted diabetes outcomes at 12 months (HbA1c, total effect; B = 0.070 95%CI: 0.0032, 0.14; P < .05), however depressive symptoms did not mediate this relationship (average direct effect; B = 0.064; 95% CI: -0.0043, 0.13, P = .069). Considering the local and plural notions of stigma in India, further research is needed on culturally grounded approaches to measure and address stigma in India, and on the role of integrated care delivery models alongside multi-level stigma reduction interventions.

Published: September 2024

Anxiety may be experienced by all groups, including students who memorize the Qur’an. This research aims to explore the types of anxiety experienced by students who memorize the Qur'an, identify the factors that contribute to it, and examine the efforts made by supervisors to address it. The study used a qualitative approach, with data collected through observation and interviews, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The results showed that students experienced both reality-based and moral-based anxiety. Environmental factors were found to contribute to anxiety, and institutional support was found to be lacking. While the vice principal made no efforts to address anxiety among students, the tahfiz extracurricular participants used self-control, asking for help, and muroja’ah as strategies to cope. This study identifies several types of anxiety and variables that contribute to it while emphasizing the importance of institutional support in resolving mental health issues. Practical consequences of this research include the development of customized treatments for students, training for educators on identifying anxiety and establishing extensive support systems within educational institutions.

Producing Knowledge for Socio-Ecological Transformation in Central Asia? A Humbling Experiment in Re-Cognizing Rivers
Authors: Féaux de la Croix Jeanne 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
As the deepening climate crisis shows, our greatest scientific challenge is to turn abstract understanding into doing. This means that the classic divide in research between ‘basic’, ‘applied’ and ‘outreach’ phases no longer adequately serve the need for transformative social learning. What can this kind of transformation look like in a world region such as Central Asia, with its own distinct legacies of environmental and social flourishing and suffering? What are the consequences of Central Asia’s particular forms of structural opportunity and violence around knowledge-creation? This paper discusses transdisciplinary research models in light of real collaborations on the banks of the Naryn and Syr Darya rivers. I examine the strengths and weaknesses of research with a wide range of actors in Central Asia such as irrigation specialists, artists and social scientist. Drawing on this experience, the paper analyses how broad regional trends in activism and scholarship intersect with global developments in knowledge-production methods and economies.

Published: September 2024

Abstract
In order to reveal the restriction in shale gas enrichment of the Wufeng-Longmaxi Formation in the northern Guizhou province, the influence model of detachment layer was established through field geological investigation, core observation, logging, sample analysis, and geological background data. The response relationship between the detachment layer and the shale gas enrichment model in different structural formats was analyzed. The results show that the thickness of the Wufeng-Longmaxi Formation’s detachment layer is influenced by the conditions near the fault zones and mineralogical characteristics. The lithofacies of the detachment layer shows mainly a combination of clay-rich shale facies. This indicates that lithofacies type is one of the main factors influencing the variation in slip layer thickness. The detachment layer exhibits distinct well logging response characteristics and is influenced by nitrogen enrichment. The development of detachment fractures allows atmospheric nitrogen to infiltrate shale gas. It leads to poor gas saturation in the shale gas. In addition, the overall tectonic deformation in the northern Guizhou province was found to gradually intensify from Northwest to Southeast, and there were two tectonic models: a slot-shift tape transition belt and a spacer type deformation belt. The influence of decollements on shale gas preservation was barely found in the northern Guizhou province. It is mainly controlled by buried depth of the target layer, conditions of the cover layer, structural type, and deformation intensity.

Abstract
Wildfires pose a significant ecological, environmental, and socioeconomic challenge in southeastern Europe. The preservation of wildlands is not only essential but also a foremost priority for Montenegro, a country recognized as the world’s first ecological state. Consequently, the development of optimal methodologies and models is of paramount importance to enhance fire protection measures. With this objective in mind, this study strives to create a wildfire susceptibility model on a national scale for Montenegro. The study employed seven natural and anthropogenic causative criteria: vegetation type; aspect; slope; elevation; climate classification; distance from road; and population. The modeling process integrates both natural and anthropogenic causal criteria, employing the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (F-AHP) and Frequency Ratio (FR) within geoinformatics environment. The outcomes of the F-AHP model reveal that 72.84% of the total area is categorized as having high to very high susceptibility. Conversely, based on the FR model, only 29.07% of the area falls within these susceptibility levels. In terms of validation, the area under curvature values indicates good performance of the F-AHP model. In contrast, the FR model demonstrates poor performance. These novel findings, pertaining to Montenegro at a national scale, offer valuable insights for preemptive wildfire safeguarding efforts. Moreover, the methodologies employed, with necessary modifications, hold potential for application in geographically diverse regions.

Bildsamkeit, Vervollkommnung und Optimierung
Authors: Dederich Markus , Zirfas Jörg 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Historisch erscheint die Umstellung der Semantik von Vollkommenheit als Optimum menschlicher Entwicklung auf Perfektionierung bzw. Vervollkommnung im 16. und 17. Jahrhundert bedeutsam. Infolgedessen wurde die Vervollkommnung von der (absoluten) Vollkommenheit gelöst bzw. die Vollkommenheit selbst als entwicklungsfähig bzw. steigerbar angesehen. Wenn in den aktuellen Debatten weder von einer Vollkommenheit des Menschen noch von seiner Vollendung die Rede ist, ist das auch ein Indiz dafür, dass ein integrales Ziel menschlichen Lebens nicht mehr vorstellbar erscheint. Genau dieser Verlust macht die Figur der Optimierung attraktiv, bietet diese doch eine irgendwie geartete Orientierung. Zwei pädagogische Grundbegriffe sind mit dieser Orientierung verbunden: Bildsamkeit und Vervollkommnung. Bildsamkeit kann ganz allgemein als eine dem Menschen zugeschriebene Fähigkeit verstanden werden, Fähigkeiten auszubilden und zu entwickeln, zu lernen und sich mit pädagogischer Unterstützung und im Austausch mit der natürlichen, sozialen und kulturellen Welt zu bilden. Auf der anderen Seite verweist der Begriff der Vervollkommnungsfähigkeit darauf, dass das Konzept der Bildsamkeit mit einem Telos versehen werden muss, auf das diese hin entwickelt werden soll. Unter den Bedingungen der Moderne geraten Bildsamkeit und Vervollkommnung in den Sog eines entgrenzten Optimierungsmodells, das in seinen extremen Spielarten über den Menschen hinausweist.
A környezetvédelmi jogi normák és a zöldre festés a turizmusban – A greenwashing jelenség és szabályozási háttere
Authors: Kundi Viktória , Ernszt Ildikó 
Published: September 2024

A környezet védelme mind a vállalkozások, mind a fogyasztók számára központi jelentőségű kérdéssé vált. Így napjainkban a vállalati kommunikáció egyik fontos eleme, hogy felhívják a figyelmet termékeik, szolgáltatásaik készítésének környezetet óvó, fenntartható aspektusaira. A vállalatok azonban profitorientáltak, céljuk a fogyasztók megnyerése, és nem riadnak vissza attól, hogy zöldbe burkolt, sokszor teljesen üres frázisokat segítségül hívva tegyenek szert több utasra, nagyobb bevételre.Cikkünk célja, hogy bemutassa ezt a jelenséget a turizmus területén, és rávilágítson a „zöldre festés” szabályozási hátterének nehézségeire, miközben rövid áttekintést is adunk a környezetvédelmi tárgyú normák és kezdeményezések tekintetében.
Back to the Wild Frontier(s): Osek, Waṅhal and the Nature of the 18th-Century Music Catalog
Authors: Hosar Halvor K. 
Published: September 2024

AbstractThe sizeable music collection from the Osek monastery has previously been interpreted in light of a catalog that was updated 1754–c1802. The completion of a modern catalog allows for a reappraisal of the history of the institution. Previous research has explained the lack of updates in the catalog during the years 1778–1802 with a decline in musical activity following the reforms of Joseph II. The collection, however, suggests that Jan Jakob Trautzl, regens chori since 1783, began his tenure by acquiring sacred works by Johann Baptist Waṅhal which rank among the largest and most ambitious from the era. There is also evidence of local adaptations of masses into polychoral and polyorchestral arrangements. Except for a possible low point during the years 1787–1789, the reforms thus seem to have had limited effect. The failure to accurately represent the collection in the catalog suggests the necessity for a new paradigm for reading such documents. One may preliminarily consider catalogs' limited potential for additions and emendations and understand them as tools for music professionals rather than librarians. In this view there is nothing surprising about lacunae, but the inclusion of a work becomes a sign of intent from the cataloger.
