The maximum reach of the fractional rotations used in the method is determined by measuring the spatial resolution in a regular star test target such that the spatial resolution is kept within the span of interest for a given application. The set of images to be averaged is composed of fractional rotations of the original intensity reconstruction that are smaller than the previously determined maximum reach. The number of fractional rotations that are finally averaged is determined by the sought increase in the contrast of the resulting image.

Traditional networks are evaluated by pixel-level metrics such as Peak-Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) etc., which do not always align with human perception of image quality. They often produce excessively smooth images that lack high-frequency texture and appear unnatural. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a lightweight adaptive residual dense attention generative adversarial network (SRARDA) for image SR. Firstly, our generator adopts the residual in residual (RIR) structure but redesigns the basic module. By using dynamic residual connection (ARC) to dynamically adjust the importance of residual and main paths, we design a novel adaptive residual dense attention block (ARDAB) that enhances the feature extraction capability of the generator. In addition, we build a high-frequency filtering unit (HFU) to extract more high-frequency features from the LR space. Finally, to fully utilize the discriminator, we use WGAN to compute the difference between the HR image and the reconstructed image. Experiments demonstrate that SRARDA effectively addresses the issue of excessive smoothing in reconstructed images, while also enhancing visual quality.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":19513,"journal":{"name":"Optik","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142229258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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}

In the proposed method, three independent CSAVBs carrying different new kinds of power-exponent-phase vortices (NPEPVs) can be obtained under two orthogonal circularly polarized or an arbitrary linear polarized incident, respectively. Each of these vortex structures is characterized by a distinct orbital angular momentum, which is jointly determined by two parameters of the NPEPVs. This indicates that the CSAVB and the device have greater freedom than the canonical optical vortex beams and the previous vortex beam generators in controlling the optical vortex.

The findings reveal a significant impact on efficiency through precise adjustment of the Mg/(In+Zn+Mg) ratio (MIZM) from 0 to 0.23. The bandgap exhibits a consistent increase with an ascending Mg/(In+Zn+Mg) ratio, transitioning from 3.42 eV to 3.63 eV for IZMO prepared with Ar and from 3.18 eV to 3.53 eV for IZMO prepared with an Ar+O<sub>2</sub> gas mixture, respectively. This rise is attributed to the augmentation of the conduction band minimum (<em>E</em><sub>C</sub>) of IZMO resulting from the addition of MgO. Moreover, an increase in the Mg/(In+Zn+Mg) ratio correlates with improved conversion efficiency, escalating from 6.31 % to 9.19 %. Notably, the open-circuit voltage experiences a rise from 0.430 V to 0.520 V. This is attributed to the heightened <em>E</em><sub>C</sub> of IZMO due to MgO addition, which mitigates recombination between the light-absorbing layer and the buffer layer, consequently elevating the open circuit voltage. The addition of MgO also enhances the resistance of the buffer layer, contributing to an increase in shunt resistance and a subsequent decrease in leakage current. Conversely, IZMO introduced with O<sub>2</sub> exhibits inferior performance akin to IZO, attributable to substantial sputter damage induced by O<sub>2</sub> introduction.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":19513,"journal":{"name":"Optik","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142195000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"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 study involves the confocal mapping of an ensemble of NV centers to measure spin state-dependent optical transition by applying an optical excitation and microwave field simultaneously.

An ODMR contrast of 3.4 % is achieved at the NV center emission maximum of 660 nm and an inhomogeneous dephasing time of 0.03 microseconds. We find an inherent small split in the ODMR dip which is induced by local strain in nanodiamonds.
