We report a polarization maintaining chalcogenide (ChG) photonic quasicrystal fiber (PQF) for wide-band mid-IR (MIR) supercontinuum (SC) generation. The numerical demonstration of SC generation in the proposed PQF spans from 2 to 15 μm wavelengths for a pulse power of 2 kW. Besides, the proposed PQF offers a high birefringence (10 to 10) from 3.5 to 15 μm wavelengths and exhibits a low confinement loss (10 to 10) for the wavelengths from 2 to 15 μm with single mode behavior. The proposed GeAsSe PQF is designed with zero dispersion wavelengths (ZDWs) at 4.33 and 4.46 μm for X and Y polarized modes within the wavelength range of 2-15 μm. The polarized spectral broadening of the continuum is realized for the first time from 2 to 15 μm using the proposed PQF with a length of 8 mm. Hence, the two orthogonally polarized modes allow the high degree of freedom in tuning the properties of the SC. Thus, the proposed PQF-based SC source is a good candidate for applications such as optical sensing, frequency metrology, and optical tomography.

Despite Panax quinquefolius L. serving as a crucial source for food additives, healthcare products, and herbal medicines, unawareness of the metabolome differences among three parts (root, PQR; stem leaf, PQL; flower bud, PQF) seriously restricts its quality control. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC/Q-Orbitrap-MS) was fully utilized to comprehensively identify and compare the ginsenoside compositions among PQR, PQL, and PQF.

A D-shaped photonic quasi-crystal fiber (PQF) sensor based on surface plasmon resonance is proposed for refractive index (RI) sensing. The influences of the width of the gold film, the diameter of the air holes, and the thickness of the gold film on the sensing performance are analyzed. When the RI of a liquid analyte gradually increases from 1.

The past few years have witnessed great success in applying deep learning to enhance the quality of compressed image/video. The existing approaches mainly focus on enhancing the quality of a single frame, not considering the similarity between consecutive frames. Since heavy fluctuation exists across compressed video frames as investigated in this paper, frame similarity can be utilized for quality enhancement of low-quality frames given their neighboring high-quality frames.
