In this study, we investigate the multiple magnetic couplings in F4GT single crystals using electron spin resonance (ESR) technique. ESR lines associated with the change from perpendicular magnetic anisotropy to easy plane anisotropy are observed, indicating strong anisotropic responses to the microwaves. As the temperature increases, the resonance lines for H∥ab shift toward higher fields, while those for H∥c move toward lower fields. These opposite behaviors are attributed to the competition between the inner magnetic field and the demagnetization effect. In addition, the angle-dependent ESR spectra of F4GT single crystal exhibit a [3 cos2(π2−φ)−1]2-like behavior, which indicates a characteristic of 2D magnetic coupling attributed to the dominant effects of q→ 0 mode. These findings provide significant insights into the complex spin couplings in F4GT and pave the way for its potential applications in microwave-based spintronic devices.","PeriodicalId":8094,"journal":{"name":"Applied Physics Letters","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144252418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Introducing strong mode coupling through long-period fiber gratings has proven to be an effective approach to mitigating DMGD and enabling extended transmission. In this work, we propose and demonstrate a dual-pitch staggered long-period fiber grating (DSP-LPFG) capable of facilitating mode conversion between two distinct mode pairs. By strategically distributing three sets of DSP-LPFGs along the fiber, this method achieves periodic mode permutation of four mode groups along the entire length of fiber. The combined grating generates four target modes with a purity exceeding 90 %, while the device’s insertion loss remains below 0.7 dB. Theoretically, this approach balances energy ratio variations among modes within the transmission link and mitigates associated processing capability fluctuations. Consequently, it reduces the risk of overload in the MIMO equalizer at the receiving end, effectively addressing a key limitation of long-haul MDM transmission.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19511,"journal":{"name":"Optics and Laser Technology","volume":"191 ","pages":"Article 113326"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144240372","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The intensity-gradient image processing has improved robustness and accuracy. Based on the widths from the melt pool and single track, the mean square error (MSE) is 12.22 μm, outperforming the conventional fixed-threshold method by 25.3 %. In addition, a classification and regression tree (CART) model was used to categorize the melt pools into four types—balling, irregularity, normal, and over-melting—based on geometric, shape, temperature, and texture features, achieving a classification accuracy of 97.24 %. It is found that the texture feature, contributing to 58.4 % of the importance, and the temperature feature, contributing 37.6 %, emerged as vital features in the melt pool identification process. The texture feature is particularly effective in identifying melt pools in normal and over-melting modes, mainly due to the Correlation (COR) and Contrast (CON).

Dynamic phase-shifting interferometry is a highly efficient and widely recognized optical metrology technique, known for its exceptional accuracy and speed, making it ideal for industrial inspection and measurement tasks. However, incorrect phase-shift intervals between interferograms generated by this technique can lead to fringe-print-through (FPT) errors in the surface measurements. Additionally, additive Gaussian noise present in the interferograms complicates the accurate assessment of residual surface after measurements. Rapidly eliminating these FPT errors and noise is essential for achieving high-accuracy and high-speed measurement applications. In this paper, we propose a novel deep-learning method to simultaneously eliminate FPT errors and noise in dynamic phase-shifting interferometry. Our approach utilizes a UNet++ deep-learning network, which processes the surface phase containing errors as input and outputs the corresponding FPT errors and noise. Trained on simulated data, the model learns to directly predict these errors and noise from the surface phase with errors. Consequently, the corrected surface phase is obtained by subtracting the predicted FPT errors and noise from the initial surface phase. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that our deep-learning method effectively removes FPT errors and noise, providing broad versatility, rapid processing, and robustness, thereby significantly enhancing measurement accuracy in dynamic measurement applications.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19511,"journal":{"name":"Optics and Laser Technology","volume":"191 ","pages":"Article 113313"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144240386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
