Besides, the validity of this algorithm is validated by measuring the ranging and direction-finding accuracy. The results show that the distance error rate is within 2%, and the angle error rate is within 3%, which means a good localization effect. The proposed algorithm is expected to be widely used in thunderstorm cloud detection for its quick measurement and high precision.We demonstrate a method for accurately locking the frequency of a continuous-wave laser to an optical frequency comb under conditions where the signal-to-noise ratio is low, too low to accommodate other methods. Our method is typically orders of magnitude more accurate than conventional wavemeters and can considerably extend the usable wavelength range of a given optical frequency comb. We illustrate our method by applying it to the frequency control of a dipole lattice trap for an optical lattice clock, a representative case where our method provides significantly better accuracy than other methods.We present a high energy resolution x-ray spectrometer for the tender x-ray regime (1.6-5.0 keV) that was designed and operated at Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource. The instrument is developed on a Rowland geometry (500 mm of radius) using cylindrically bent Johansson analyzers and a position sensitive detector. By placing the sample inside the Rowland circle, the spectrometer operates in an energy-dispersive mode with a subnatural line-width energy resolution (∼0.32 eV at 2400 eV), even when an extended incident x-ray beam is used across a wide range of diffraction angles (∼30° to 65°). The spectrometer is enclosed in a vacuum chamber, and a sample chamber with independent ambient conditions is introduced to enable a versatile and fast-access sample environment (e.g., solid/gas/liquid samples, in situ cells, and radioactive materials). The design, capabilities, and performance are presented and discussed.The absolute response of the GE Amersham Typhoontm imaging plate scanner is studied in this paper. The sensitivity function of the scanner with different photomultiplier tube voltages was obtained by using a pre-calibrated Cu Kα x-ray tube. The results showed that the sensitivity function decreases exponentially with higher voltage and is also affected by the scanning pixel size. The spatial resolution and the fading effect of the imaging plate system on x rays were also investigated and compared with the previous scanner models.The negative photoresist SU-8 has attracted much research interest as a structural material for creating complex three-dimensional (3D) microstructures incorporating hidden features such as microchannels and microwells for a variety of lab-on-a-chip and biomedical applications. Achieving desired topological and dimensional accuracy in such SU-8 microstructures is crucial for most applications, but existing methods for their metrology, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical profilometry, are not practical for non-destructive measurement of hidden features. This paper introduces an alternative imaging modality for non-destructively characterizing the features and dimensions of SU-8 microstructures by measuring their transmittance of 365 nm ultraviolet (UV) light. Here, depth profiles of SU-8 3D microstructures and thin films are determined by relating UV transmittance and the thicknesses of SU-8 samples imaged in the UV spectrum through the Beer-Lambert law applied to the images on a pixel-by-pixel basis. This technique is validated by imaging the UV transmittance of several prototype SU-8 3D microstructures, including those comprising hidden hollow subsurface features, as well as SU-8 thin-films, and verifying the measured data through SEM. These results suggest that UV transmittance imaging offers a cost-effective, non-destructive technique to quickly measure and identify SU-8 microstructures with surface and hidden subsurface features unlike existing techniques.The traditional algorithm for compressive reconstruction has high computational complexity. In order to reduce the reconstruction time of compressive sensing, deep learning networks have proven to be an effective solution. In this paper, we have developed a single-pixel imaging system based on deep learning and designed the binary sampling Res2Net reconstruction network (Bsr2-Net) model suitable for binary matrix sampling. In the experiments, we compared the structural similarity, peak signal-to-noise ratio, and reconstruction time using different reconstruction methods. Experimental results show that the Bsr2-Net is superior to several deep learning networks recently reported and closes to the most advanced reconstruction algorithms.Temperature gradients in ceramic light water reactor (LWR) uranium dioxide (UO2) nuclear fuel pellets generate thermal stresses that cause fractures in the fuel, which begins early in the life of fresh fuel. The combination of heating due to fission and forced convective cooling on the exterior of LWR fuel rods generates a temperature profile that is difficult to replicate outside the reactor environment. In this study, a state-of-the-art experimental setup using electrical heating to study certain aspects of temperature driven fracture was built, and surrogate fuel materials such as ceria (CeO2) were used to validate the system. Cracking experiments were conducted on these surrogates by inducing reactivity-initiated-accident like temperature gradients in the pellets via induction and direct resistance heating. Induction heating was done using copper coils and molybdenum susceptors, which heated the surrogates to a threshold temperature that is sufficiently high for the fuel material to conduct current. Thereward-looking infrared thermal camera to capture the temperature profiles. A LabVIEW data acquisition system was set up for collecting useful data during experiments.Complex high-precision mechanical devices can be fabricated using a three-dimensional printing technology with the help of computer-aided design. Takinib Using 3D stereolithography, we have constructed a cryogenic goniometer for measurements in pulsed magnetic fields of up to 100 T, at temperatures as low as 0.5 K. We review the properties of several materials tested in developing the goniometer and report on its design and performance. The goniometer allows samples to be rotated in situ to a precision of 0.2° so that the field can be applied at many different angles to the samples' symmetry directions. Following its success, we establish that 3D printing is now a viable technology for pulsed field and other cryogenic probes.
