High-speed FSO-5G wireless communication system with enhanced loss compensation using high-power EDFA.

In this paper, we demonstrated a novel bidirectional high-speed transmission system integrating a free-space optical (FSO) communication with a 5G wireless link, utilizing a high-power erbium-doped fibre amplifier (EDFA) for enhanced loss compensation. The system supports downlink rates of 1-Gb/s/4.5-GHz and 10-Gb/s at 24-GHz and 39-GHz, and an uplink rate of 10-Gb/s/28-GHz.

5 G new radio fiber-wireless converged systems by injection locking multi-optical carrier into directly-modulated lasers.

The integration of fiber-optical wireless convergence with fifth generation new radio is crucial in building high-performance access networks. This approach not only provides high-transmission-rates but also ensures broad coverage, which is vital for future networks. Here we report fifth generation new radio fiber-wireless converged systems by injection locking multi-optical carrier into directly-modulated lasers.

Bidirectional wavelength-division-multiplexing fibre-free-space optical communications using polarisation multiplexing technique and tunable optical vestigial sideband filter.

To address the growing demand from emerging applications, high transmission capacity is essential for both fibre backbones and last-mile communications. This can be achieved by integrating optical fibre with optical wireless technologies, facilitating the development of fibre-free-space optical communications. Here we report a bidirectional wavelength-division-multiplexing fibre-free-space optical communication employing polarisation multiplexing technique and tunable optical vestigial sideband filter.

Supercollisions of NaCl + NaCl on an Accurate Full-Dimensional Potential Energy Surface.

An accurate, global, full-dimensional potential energy surface (PES) of NaCl + NaCl has been constructed by the fundamental invariant-neural network (FI-NN) fitting based on roughly 13,000 ab initio energies at the level of CCSD(T)-F12a/aug-cc-pVTZ, with the small fitting error of 0.16 meV. Extensive quasiclassical trajectory (QCT) calculations were performed on this PES to investigate the energy transfer process of the NaCl + NaCl collision at four different collision energies.

A silver catalyst with a high-energy surface prepared by plasma spraying for the hydrogen evolution reaction.

A self-supported silver electrode was prepared by plasma spraying and used for catalysing the hydrogen evolution reaction. Thanks to the non-equilibrium synthetic conditions, the silver catalyst exposes high-energy (200) crystal planes, which enhance the adsorption of hydrogen and improve the intrinsic catalytic activity. As a result, the silver catalyst delivers an overpotential of 349 mV at 10 mA cm, which was much lower than those of Ag foil (742 mV) and commercial Ag powder (657 mV).

Double-Roaming Dynamics in the H + CH → H + CH Reaction: Acetylene-Facilitated Roaming and Vinylidene-Facilitated Roaming.

We report two novel roaming pathways for the H + CH → H + CH reaction by performing extensive quasiclassical trajectory calculations on a new, global, high-level machine learning-based potential energy surface. One corresponds to the acetylene-facilitated roaming pathway, where the H atom turns back from the acetylene + H channel and abstracts another H atom from acetylene. The other is the vinylidene-facilitated roaming, where the H atom turns back from the vinylidene + H channel and abstracts another H from vinylidene.
