Surface plasmon resonance is the enhancement of electromagnetic wave caused by oscillation on the metal and dielectric interfaces. Surface plasmons with nanohole arrays provides an enhancedresonance for the specific wavelengths of interests. Asymmetric array of nanoscale structures can enable orientation dependent shift of resonance wavelengths when combined with the control of polarization for incident visible light, thus providing color tunability. Appropriate lattice constants along the direction of polarization in rectangular nanohole arrays can determine the resonance condition generating red (R), green (G), and blue (B) colors and potentially be applied to display applications. In ourprevious report, we have optimized the ion beam nanomachining conditions to fabricate the nanostructures on the metal film. We apply the fabrication conditions to make nanoscale hole arrays using 100 nm thick gold layer on the glass substrate with the optimal design of periodicities along x, y, and diagonal directions of a=440 nm, b=520 nm, c=682 nm, and the hole diameter of d=200 nm. Using the reflective light in dark field mode of optical microscope, we can observe different colors. When the polarizer is paralleled along a, b, or c direction, the represented color is changed to R, G, and B, respectively. We further map the color using i1 to correlate the conditions of the nanohole arrays with their characteristic color.

In this paper, we proposed the new wavelength tunable filter for wide tunability of fiber ring laser. The proposed filter consists of the cascaded connection of Fiber Reflection Mach-Zehnder Interferometer and Sagnac filter or of hybrid filter and fiber Reflection Mach-Zehnder Interferometer. The simulation shows that the continuous tunable range of 50nm can be obtained and that more stable single mode operation of ring laser can be expected due to narrow FWHM. of filter spectrum.

Free electron lasers (FELs) are promising sources of coherent radiation that can provide users with radiations having a wide-range frequency-tunability and good spectral characteristics for basic science and industrial applications. Especially in Terahertz or X-ray ranges of spectrum, FELs can generate much stronger radiations than conventional light sources. In this paper, we introduce the working principles and key technologies of FELs, the status and the prospects of FEL developments.

A pulsed Ti : sapphire laser with a Z-folded cavity, which was pumped by a frequency-doubled Nd : YAG laser, was developed. A laser output energy of 822 $\mu$J with a pulsewidth of 5 ns and an output efficiency of 27.4% was obtained at a center wavelength of 790 nm using an output coupler of 18% reflectance. The slope efficiency was 35%. The output beam diameter was 0.9 mm, and the divergence angle was 1.8 mrad. The spectrum tunability was about 120 nm from 740 nm to 860 nm with a FWHM of 90 nm at an 18% output coupler and a pumping energy of 3 mJ.

We report the physical implementation of a tunable photonic microwave delay line filter based on injection locking of a single Fabry-Perot laser diode (FP-LD) to a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA). The laser generates equally spaced multiple wavelengths and a single tapped-delay line can be obtained with a dispersive single mode fiber. The filter frequency response depends on the wavelength spacing and can be tuned by the temperature of the FP-LD varying lasing wavelength. For amplitude control of the wavelengths, we use gain saturation of the RSOA and the offset between the peak wavelengths of the FP-LD and the RSOA to decrease the amplitude difference in the wavelengths. From the temperature change of total $15^{\circ}C$, the filter, consisting of four flat wavelengths and two wavelengths with slightly lower amplitudes on both sides, has shown tunability of about 390 MHz.

In this paper, a novel tunable bandpass filter using tunable series inductors and MEMS switches for wireless LAN applications was proposed. The proposed tunable filter was fabricated using a micromachining technology and performances of the fabricated filter were estimated. The filter consists of spiral inductors, MIM capacitors and direct-contact type MEMS switches, and its frequency tunability is achieved by changing the inductance that is induced by ON/OFF actuations of the MEMS switches. The actuation voltage of the MEMS switches was 58 V, and the measured center frequencies were 2.55 GHz and 5.1 GHz, respectively. The passband insertion loss and 3-dB bandwidth were 4.2 dB and 22.5 % at 2.55 GHz, and 5.2 dB and 23.5 % at 5.1 GHz, respectively.

An alkoxide-based sol-gel method was used to fabricate $Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}TiO_{3}$thin films doped by Bi from 5 to 20 mol% on a Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Sisubstrate. The structural and dielectric properties of BST thin films were investigated as a function of Bi dopant concentration. The dielectric properties of the Bi doped BST films were strongly dependent on the Bi contents. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the films decreased with increasing Bi content. However, the leakage current density of the 10 mol% Bi doped $Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}TiO_{3}$ thin film showed the lowest value of 5.13$\times 10^{-7} A/{cm}^2$ at 5 V. The figure of merit (FOM) reached a maximum value of 32.42 at a 10 mol% Bi doped $Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}TiO_{3}$thin films. The dielectric constant, loss factor, and tunability of the 10 mol% Bi doped $Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Tio_{3}$ thin films were 333, 0.0095, and 31.1%, respectively.

The dielectric and electrical characteristics of Ce doped (Ba0.6Sr0.4)TiO3 (BST) thin films were investigated as a function of Ce content. Both atomic force microscopy (AFM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that increasing the Ce doping ratio causes the decrease in grain size while the surface remains smooth and crack-free. The dielectric properties of the Ce doped BST films were found to be strongly dependent on the Ce contents. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the BST films decreased with increasing Ce content. However, it was also found that, compared with undoped films, the increase of Cecontent improves the leakage-current characteristics. The improvement of the electrical properties of Ce-doped BST films may be related to the decrease in the concentration of oxygen vacancies. The figure of merit (FOM) reached the maximum value of 48.9 at the 1 mol % of Cedoping. The dielectric constant, loss factor, and tunability of the 1 mol% Ce doped Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 thin films were 320, 0.011, and 46.3%, respectively.

Conceptual teaming has been one of the important issue in science education, and its theory and method has been interacted with the studies of philosophy of science, cognitive science, and cognitive psychology. The last two decades have witnessed a remarkable growth of the study on brain-style computation, i.e. connectionism. This study aimed to investigate the properties of the connectionist views of the concept and its implications in the conceptual learning of science. In connectionist views, a concept was represented as a pattern of activity distributed over many connected units, and a kind of network composed of many sub-concept units. And the ＇distributed representation＇ had the features of the constructivity, the automatically generalization, and the tunability. On the base of these views, it was suggested that (ⅰ) ＇Typically-Perceived-Situation＇, a kind of mental representation rising spontaneously in an individual mind when someone is thinking about any object, should be highlighted, and (ⅱ) the roles of the sub-concept units in formation of concept and the resolution of concept into the sub-concept units should be highlighted. Finally the meanings of these implications in conceptual teaming of science are discussed.
