We propose a neural network equalization delta-sigma modulation (DSM) technique. After performing DSM on the multi-order quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal at the transmitting end, neural network equalizer technology is used in the digital signal processing at receiving end. Applying this technology to a 4.6 km W-band millimeter wave system, it is possible to achieve a 1 Gbaud 8192-QAM OFDM signal transmission. The data rate reached 23.4 Gbit/s with the bit error rate at 3.8 × 10^-2, lower than soft-decision forward-error correction threshold (4 × 10^-2).

We propose a joint look-up-table (LUT)-based nonlinear predistortion and digital resolution enhancement scheme to achieve high-speed and low-cost optical interconnects using low-resolution digital-to-analog converters (DACs). The LUT-based predistortion is employed to mitigate the pattern-dependent effect (PDE) of a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), while the digital resolution enhancer (DRE) is utilized to shape the quantization noise, lowering the requirement for the resolution of DAC. We experimentally demonstrate O-band intensity modulation and direct detection (IM/DD) transmission of 124-GBd 4 / 6-level pulse-amplitude modulation ( PAM ) -4 / 6 and 112-GBd PAM-8 signals over a 2-km standard single-mode fiber (SSMF) with 3 / 3.5 / 4-bit DACs. In the case of 40-km SSMF transmission with an SOA-based preamplifier, 124-GBd on-off-keying (OOK)/PAM-3/PAM-4 signals are successfully transmitted with 1.5 / 2 / 3-bit DACs. To the best of our knowledge, we have achieved the highest net data rates of 235.3-Gb / s PAM-4, 289.7-Gb / s PAM-6, and 294.7 Gb / s PAM-8 signals over 2-km SSMF, as well as 117.6-Gb / s OOK, 173.8-Gb / s PAM-3, and -231.8 Gb / s PAM-4 signals over 40-km SSMF, employing low-resolution DACs. The experimental results reveal that the joint LUT-based predistortion and DRE effectively mitigate the PDE and improve the signal-to-quantization noise ratio by shaping the noise. The proposed scheme can provide a powerful solution for low-cost IM/DD optical interconnects beyond 200 Gb / s.

基于Sprott-R三维混沌系统，提出了一个具有多稳态和调幅特性的简单四维忆阻混沌系统。首先分析了系统的稳定性，发现该系统具有无穷多个不稳定平衡点。进而利用Lyapunov指数谱、分岔图及相平面图，研究了该忆阻混沌系统的复杂动力学行为特性。研究结果表明，当系统参数发生变化时，系统会经反倍周期分岔由混沌态进入周期态；在不同初始条件下，系统能产生三种共存吸引子，分别为双混沌吸引子共存、周期极限环与混沌吸引子共存、双周期极限环共存；当初始条件变化时，系统输出四维混沌信号的幅度均发生变化。最后，对该系统进行了电路设计与仿真，验证了该忆阻混沌系统的存在性。

认识并降低噪声对传输粒子保真度的影响, 是量子隐形传态重要的研究方向之一。不同于以前的独立噪声和带记忆的Pauli噪声, 研究了记忆幅值阻尼噪声对保真度的影响, 并给出了一个抵抗该噪声信道的方案。该方案通过让参与者在粒子分发前实施弱测量而粒子接收后实施恢复测量的方式提高保真度。研究结果表明, 记忆幅值阻尼信道的记忆因子强度与保真度大小呈正相关, 并且在部分记忆信道与全记忆信道下弱测量与恢复测量方法也能一定程度上提高传输粒子的保真度。

A designed visual geometry group (VGG)-based convolutional neural network (CNN) model with small computational cost and high accuracy is utilized to monitor pulse amplitude modulation-based intensity modulation and direct detection channel performance using eye diagram measurements. Experimental results show that the proposed technique can achieve a high accuracy in jointly monitoring modulation format, probabilistic shaping, roll-off factor, baud rate, optical signal-to-noise ratio, and chromatic dispersion. The designed VGG-based CNN model outperforms the other four traditional machine-learning methods in different scenarios. Furthermore, the multitask learning model combined with MobileNet CNN is designed to improve the flexibility of the network. Compared with the designed VGG-based CNN, the MobileNet-based MTL does not need to train all the classes, and it can simultaneously monitor single parameter or multiple parameters without sacrificing accuracy, indicating great potential in various monitoring scenarios.

Frequency modulation (FM)-to-amplitude modulation (AM) conversion is an important factor that affects the time–power curve of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) high-power laser facilities. This conversion can impact uniform compression and increase the risk of damage to optics. However, the dispersive grating used in the smoothing by spectral dispersion technology will introduce a temporal delay and can spatially smooth the target. The combined effect of the dispersive grating and the focusing lens is equivalent to a Gaussian low-pass filter, which is equivalent to 8 GHz bandwidth and can reduce the intensity modulation on the target to below 5% with 0.3 nm @ 3 GHz + 20 GHz spectrum phase modulation. The results play an important role in the testing and evaluating of the FM-to-AM on the final optics and the target, which is beneficial for comprehensively evaluating the load capacity of the facility and isentropic compression experiment for ICF.

The generation and control of large amplitude plasma gratings and other plasma structures is of paramount importance for the realization of plasma photonics. Autoresonant excitation of such structures by means of chirped amplitude-modulated lasers has been recently discussed and analyzed theoretically. Here we discuss the parameter space for the realization of such a scheme and describe the laser system that was built towards this goal. We also expand our earlier theoretical study to account for the more realistic case of a moderately focused laser beam, instead of the simplified plane wave approximation.
