It has higher focusing efficiency in higher fractal stage and approaches to 100% theoretically. The on-axis intensity keeps its fractal structure unchanged in operation of fractal stages. The tunability of the axicon is demonstrated by tune fractal stage from 1 to 3 and focal length from 0.8 m to 1 m. We also provide details of theoretical analyses and experimental results.展开更多

By introducing a concept of condensing force （CF）, it is shown via ab initio calculations for fcc （Ni, Cu, Al, Ir, Rh, Au, Ag, Pd） and hcp Re crystals that materials with larger CF can have greater hardness. Since the calculation of CF is easy, this method might prove a convenient way to evaluate the hardness of newly designed materials.展开更多

The influence of impurities and hydroxyl groups on defects is discussed. The results show that ES silica glasses containing high OH and few defects are much stable under fs laser irradiation. It is also verified that Si E_δ~′center formation has no direct relation with chloride ions.展开更多
