Third harmonic generation from mid-IR to near-IR regions in a phase-matched silicon-silicon-nanocrystal hybrid plasmonic waveguide by Huang, Tianye, Sun, Yunxu, Wu, Tingting, Shum, Perry Ping, Shao, Xuguang

“…The required modal phase-matching condition (PMC) between the 0-th mode at fundamental wave (FW) and the 2-nd mode at third harmonic (TH) is achieved by carefully designing the waveguide geometry. Benefiting from the hybridized surface plasmon polariton (SPP) nature of the two guided modes, the SSHPW is capable of achieving both high THG nonlinear coefficient I6 and reasonable linear propagation loss, thereby resulting in large figure-of-merits (FOMs) for both FW and TH. …”

Under-coordinated atoms induced local strain, quantum trap depression and valence charge polarization at W stepped surfaces by Wang, Yan, Zhang, Xi, Nie, Yanguang, Sun, Changqing

“…The surface bond contraction occurs around under-coordinated atoms after geometry relaxation calculation. Consistency among BOLS calculations, DFT calculation and experimental measurements clarifies that the surface bond contraction and consolidation due to the effects of under-coordination atoms induce potential trap depression, which provides perturbation to the Hamiltonian and hence contributes to the surface core level shift deeper, and that the surface valence charge are polarized by the densely trapped core-level electrons to upper energy.…”

Multivariate adaptive regression splines model for reliability assessment of serviceability limit state of twin caverns by Zhang, Wengang, Goh, Anthony Teck Chee

“…From the numerical results, a fairly simple nonparametric regression algorithm known as multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) has been used to relate the maximum key point displacement and the percent strain to various parameters including the rock quality, the cavern geometry and the in situ stress. Probabilistic assessments on the serviceability limit state of twin caverns can be performed using the First-order reliability spreadsheet method (FORM) based on the built MARS model. …”

Occlusion-free road segmentation leveraging semantics for autonomous vehicles by Wang, Kewei, Yan, Fuwu, Zou, Bin, Tang, Luqi, Yuan, Quan, Lv, Chen

“…Inferring the occluded road area requires a comprehensive understanding of the geometry and the semantics of the visible scene. To this end, we create a small but effective dataset based on the KITTI dataset named KITTI-OFRS (KITTI-occlusion-free road segmentation) dataset and propose a lightweight and efficient, fully convolutional neural network called OFRSNet (occlusion-free road segmentation network) that learns to predict occluded portions of the road in the semantic domain by looking around foreground objects and visible road layout. …”
