Design and measurement of the TE mode generator.

The high-mode generator is a passive device operating at low power, which is helpful for the mode converter test. It has generally served as the input of the mode converter to evaluate the performance. Here, we realized the design of the TE mode generator.

Time-resolved photoconductivity distribution measurement by a synchronized double-scanning method.

The lifetime and the distribution of photoconductivity generated in laser-illuminated semiconductors are critical to photoconductivity-based applications. We propose a synchronized double-scanning method to measure time-resolved diffusion in the form of an afterglow embedded in the distribution map. The method combines spatial scanning of a coaxial resonator with synchronized laser scanning to map the dynamically excited conductivity on a semiconductor wafer.

Real-time imaging of electromagnetic fields.

The measurement and diagnosis of electromagnetic fields are important foundations for various electronic and optical systems. This paper presents an innovative optically controlled plasma scattering technique for imaging electromagnetic fields. On a silicon wafer, the plasma induced by the photoconductive effect is exploited as an optically controlled scattering probe to image the amplitude and phase of electromagnetic fields.

Interspecies rootstocks affect cadmium accumulation in postgrafting generation plants of potential cadmium-hyperaccumulator Solanum photeinocarpum.

Pot and field experiments were conducted to study the effects of interspecies rootstocks on cadmium (Cd) accumulation characteristics of the potential Cd-hyperaccumulator Solanum photeinocarpum postgrafting generation plants. Four treatments (ungrafted and S. photeinocarpum seedlings grafted on the rootstocks of eggplant, potato, and tomato) were utilized in the present study.

Analysis of alterations to the transcriptome of Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl.) under low temperature stress via de novo sequencing.

Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl.), which originates from the cooler hill regions of southwestern China, is a typical subtropical evergreen tree. Loquat is one of the most important economic crops in China, but the available genomic information is very limited.
