In this paper, we experimentally realize the storage and retrieval of circular airy beams (CABs) by using the Λ-type three-level energy system based on the electromagnetically induced transparency in a hot rubidium atomic vapor cell. The weak probe beam field is modulated with phase distribution of CABs by a spatial light modulator. We store the probe circular airy beam (CAB) into the rubidium atomic vapor cell and retrieve after the demanded delay. We quantitatively analyze the storage results and give corresponding theoretical explanations. Moreover, we investigate the autofocusing and self-healing effect of the retrieved CAB, which indicates that the properties and beam shape of CAB maintains well after storage. Our work will have potential applications in the storage of high-dimensional quantum information, and is also useful for improving the channel capacities of quantum internet.","PeriodicalId":504421,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics B","volume":"15 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140974260","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the intrinsic challenge lies in the relatively low energy conversion efficiency of TiO2, primarily attributed to the substantial band gaps (exceeding 3.0 eV) associated with its rutile and anatase phases. Leveraging multi-objective global optimization, we have identified two quasi-layered ternary Ti-O-S crystals, composed of titanium, oxygen and sulfur. The calculations of formation energy, phonon dispersions, and thermal stability confirm the chemical, dynamical and thermal stability of these newly discovered phases. Employing the state-of-art hybrid density functional approach and many-body perturbation theory (quasiparticle GW approach and Bethe-Salpeter equation), we calculate the optical properties of both the TiOS phases. Significantly, both phases show favorable photocatalytic characteristics, featuring band gaps suitable for visible optical absorption and appropriate band alignments with water for effective charge carrier separation. Therefore, ternary compound TiOS hold the potential for achieving high-efficiency photochemical conversion, showing our multi-objective global optimization provides a new approach for novel environmental and energy materials design with multicomponent compounds.","PeriodicalId":504421,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics B","volume":"118 42","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140977890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

And the dynamics in two typical collision pathways, recollision-impact-ionization (RII) and recollision-excitation with subsequent ionization (RESI) is systematically explored. Our results reveal that the V-shaped structure in the correlated momentum distribution is mainly caused by the RII mechanism when relative amplitude of OTC laser field is zero, and the first ionized electrons will quickly skim through the nucleus and share few energy with the second electron. As the relative amplitude increases, the V-shaped structure gradually disappears and electrons are concentrated on the diagonal in the electron correlation spectrum indicating that the energy sharing after electrons collision is symmetric for OTC laser fields with large relative amplitudes. Our studies show that changing the relative amplitude of the OTC laser field can efficiently control the electron-electron collisions and energy exchange efficiency of the NSDI process.","PeriodicalId":504421,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics B","volume":"68 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140971775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the experimental realization of this property is challengeable. Here, by using first-principles calculations and modal analysis, we predict a mechanism of producing VQAHE in two-dimensional ferromagnetic van der Waals germanene/MnI2 heterostructure. This heterostructure exhibits both valley anomalous Hall effect and VQAHE due to the joint effects of magnetic exchange effect and spin-orbital coupling with the aid of anomalous Hall conductance and chiral edge state. Moreover interestingly, through the electrical modulation of ferroelectric polarization state in In2Se3, the germanene/MnI2/In2Se3 heterostructure can undergo reversible switching from a semiconductor to a metallic behavior. This work offers a guiding advancement for searching for VQAHE in ferromagnetic van der Waals heterostructures and exploiting energy-efficient devices based on the VQAHE.","PeriodicalId":504421,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Physics B","volume":"63 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140972307","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The addition of core-valence corrections has been shown to improve the agreement between theoretical and experimental results for molecular properties. For atomization energies, a similar observation emerges when considering spin-orbit couplings.
