Gas pressure manipulation of exciton states in monolayer WS2

Over the past few decades, thin film optoelectronic devices based on transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have made significant progress. However, the sensitivity of the exciton states to environmental change presents challenges for device applications. This work reports on the evolution of photo-induced exciton states in monolayer WS2 in a chamber with low gas pressure. It elucidates the physical mechanism of the transition between neutral and charged excitons. At 222 mTorr, the transition rate between excitons includes two components, 0.09 s-1 and 1.68 s-1, respectively. Based on this phenomenon, we have developed a pressure-tuning method for exciton manipulation, allowing a tuning range of approximately 40% in exciton weight. We also demonstrate that the intensity of neutral exciton emission from monolayer WS2 follows a power-law distribution concerning gas pressure, indicating a highly sensitive pressure dependence. This work presents a non-destructive and highly sensitive method for exciton conversion through in-situ manipulation. It highlights the potential development of monolayer WS2 in pressure sensing and explains the impact of environmental factors on product quality in photovoltaic devices.

Single-pixel imaging based on deep learning

Single-pixel imaging can collect images at the wavelengths outside the reach of conventional focal plane array detectors. However, the limited image quality and lengthy computational times for iterative reconstruction still impede the practical application of single-pixel imaging. Recently, deep learning has been introduced into single-pixel imaging, which has attracted a lot of attention due to its exceptional reconstruction quality, fast reconstruction speed, and the potential to complete advanced sensing tasks without reconstructing images. Here, this advance is discussed and some opinions are offered. Firstly, based on the fundamental principles of single-pixel imaging and deep learning, the principles and algorithms of single-pixel imaging based on deep learning are described and analyzed. Subsequently, the implementation technologies of single-pixel imaging based on deep learning are reviewed. They are divided into super-resolution single-pixel imaging, single-pixel imaging through scattering media, photon-level single-pixel imaging, optical encryption based on single-pixel imaging, color single-pixel imaging, and image-free sensing according to diverse application fields. Finally, major challenges and corresponding feasible approaches are discussed, as well as more possible applications in the future.

Random lasers with tunable angular spectra for high contrast imaging

Random lasers with low spatial coherence have important potential applications in high quality imaging and displaying. Here, a random laser with tunable angular spectra is proposed and fabricated through directly coupling an asymmetric microcavity with a commercial optical fiber. The designed random laser demonstrates pumping direction-independence property in working threshold, and good storage stability.More importantly, the angular spectrum can be adjusted by pumping different microcavities on the fiber, the output random lasing with ring-shape in momentum space are used as illumination source for biological imaging. An excellent image with speckle-free and higher contrast is achieved due to the low spatial frequency-free of the illumination source even relative to that of the common white lighting. The results indicate that the designed random laser has great application values in the fields of high-resolution biological imaging, integration optics and smart sensing.

A color-switchable ring-shaped random laser in momentum space

A color-switchable random laser is designed through directly coupling random laser with a commercial optical fiber. By using a simple approach of selectively coating the random gain layer on the surface of fiber, the red and yellow random lasers are respectively achieved with low threshold and good emission direction due to the guiding role of optical fibers. Moreover, the unique coupling mechanism leads to the random lasing with ring-shape in momentum space, indicating an excellent illuminating source for high-quality imaging with an extremely low speckle noise. More importantly, random lasing with different colors can be flexible obtained by simply moving the pump position.

Switchable plasmonic scattering of nanogaps for linewidth-tunable random lasing

Linewidth-tunable lasers have great application requirements in the fields of high-resolution spectroscopy, optical communications and other industry and scientific research. Here, the switchable plasmonic scattering of the metal particles with plenty of nanogaps is proposed as an effective method to achieve linewidth-tunable random lasers. By using the nonlinear optical effect of the environment medium, the metal particles demonstrate the transition from local scattering of nanogaps with high spatial frequency to traditional Mie scattering free from detail information with increasing the pump power density. Based on these two scattering processes, random lasers can be continuously driven from a narrow-linewidth configuration exhibiting nanogap effect dominated resonances to a broad-linewidth regime of collectively coupling oscillating among nanowires (or nanoflowers), demonstrating the dynamic range of linewidth exceeds two orders of magnitude. This phenomenon may provide a platform for further studying of the conclusive mechanism of random lasing and supply a new approach to tune the linewidth of random lasers for further applications in high-illumination imaging and biology detection.
