  • This is an introduction to a stochastic version of E. Cartan′s symplectic mechanics. A class of time-symmetric("Bernstein") diffusion processes is used to deform stochastically the exterior derivative of the Poincare-Cartan one-form on the extended phase space. The resulting symplectic tow-form is shown to contain the (a.e.) dynamical laws of the diffusions. This can be regarded as a geometrization of Feynman′s path integral approach to quantum theory; when Planck′s constant reduce to zero, we recover Cartan′s mechanics. The underlying strategy is the one of "Euclidean Quantum Mechanics".

  • Here we report an optimized hot-injection method and a phase transfer strategy for the synthesis of water-soluble $CuInS_2$ QDs with desired properties. The structure and morphology studies demonstrate that the resulting QDs are $CuInS_2$ tetragonal phase with well-defined facets. It is also found that the crystal size gradually increases with the increase of reaction temperature, while the surface of QDs with pre- and post-phase transfer is functionalized with hydrophobic and hydrophilic ligands, respectively. Spectroscopy measurements reveal the size-dependent optical properties of $CuInS_2$ QDs, demonstrating the quantum confinement effect in this system.

  • A new NMR method to monitor solvent-localized NMR signals in the two-phase liquid system is suggested. This method based on intermolecular single-quantum coherence (iSQC). Here, we exploited the feature of the local action of distant dipolar field (DDF) effect in order to filter out specific NMR signals dissolved in different solvents. This solvent specific iSQC spectroscopy was carried out on a model two-phase liquid system (D-glucose in water/palmitic acid in chloroform), and showed solvent-localized NMR signals. We believe our approaches might be useful in metabolic analysis such as two-phase liquid extraction scheme for labile chemical species.

  • We have characterized the optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification of femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser pulses by using a BBO crystal. It is numerically verified that a high gain and a broad gain bandwidth can be obtained with a 532-nm pump laser. The dependence of the gain profile of OPA on phase matching angles, pump intensity, and crystal length is numerically investigated. Experimental results shows that the temporal fluctuation of a pump laser causes the modulation of an amplified spectrum in OPCPA.

  • In this talk, I will introduce two topics. The first topic is the polymer light emitting diodes (PLEDs) using graphene oxide quantum dots as emissive center. More specifically, the energy transfer mechanism as well as the origin of white electroluminescence in the PLED were investigated. The second topic is the facile synthesis of eco-friendly III-V colloidal quantum dots and their application to light emitting diodes. Polymer (organic) light emitting diodes (PLEDs) using quantum dots (QDs) as emissive materials have received much attention as promising components for next-generation displays. Despite their outstanding properties, toxic and hazardous nature of QDs is a serious impediment to their use in future eco-friendly opto-electronic device applications. Owing to the desires to develop new types of nanomaterial without health and environmental effects but with strong opto-electrical properties similar to QDs, graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have attracted great interest as promising luminophores. However, the origin of electroluminescence (EL) from GQDs incorporated PLEDs is unclear. Herein, we synthesized graphene oxide quantum dots (GOQDs) using a modified hydrothermal deoxidization method and characterized the PLED performance using GOQDs blended poly(N-vinyl carbazole) (PVK) as emissive layer. Simple device structure was used to reveal the origin of EL by excluding the contribution of and contamination from other layers. The energy transfer and interaction between the PVK host and GOQDs guest were investigated using steady-state PL, time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Experiments revealed that white EL emission from the PLED originated from the hybridized GOQD-PVK complex emission with the contributions from the individual GOQDs and PVK emissions. (Sci Rep., 5, 11032, 2015). New III-V colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) were synthesized using the hot-injection method and the QD-light emitting diodes (QLEDs) using these CQDs as emissive layer were demonstrated for the first time. The band gaps of the III-V CQDs were varied by varying the metal fraction and by particle size control. The X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) results show that the crystal states of the III-V CQDs consist of multi-phase states; multi-peak photoluminescence (PL) resulted from these multi-phase states. Inverted structured QLED shows green EL emission and a maximum luminance of ~45 cd/m2. This result shows that III-V CQDs can be a good substitute for conventional cadmium-containing CQDs in various opto-electronic applications, e.g., eco-friendly displays. (Un-published results).

  • Compared with bulk material, quantum dots have received increasing attention due to their fascinating physical properties, including optical and electronic properties, which are due to the quantum confinement effect. Especially, Luminescent CdSe quantum dots have been highly investigated due to their tunable size-dependent photoluminescence across the visible spectrum. They are of great interest for technical applications such as light-emitting devices, lasers, and fluorescent labels. In particular, quantum dot-based light-emitting diodes emit high luminance. Quantum dots have very high luminescence properties because of their absorption coefficient and quantum efficiency, which are higher than those of typical dyes. CdSe quantum dots were synthesized as a function of the synthesis time and synthesis temperature. The photoluminescence properties were found strongly to depend on the reaction time and the temperature due to the core size changing. It was also observed that the photoluminescence intensity is decreased with the synthesis time due to the temperature dependence of the band gap. The wavelength of the synthesized quantum dots was about 550-700 nm and the intensity of the photoluminescence increased about 22~70%. After the CdSe quantum dots were synthesized, the particles were found to have grown until reaching a saturated concentration as time increased. Red shift occurred because of the particle growth. The microstructure and phase developments were measured by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffractometry (XRD), respectively.

  • The wave-particle duality of light plays important role in quantum optics and it often produces a result different from that of classical wave theory. In this paper, we study the intensity and phase fluctuation of light which show certain change after light goes through a beam splitter, and show the difference between the classical and quantum theory. We show quantitatively that the uncertainty of phase increases at the output of a beam splitter due to the contribution of vacuum fluctuation, even though classical theory predicts no such change in phase fluctuation. The expectation values of normally ordered operators are introduced where the vacuum effect is naturally eliminated, and it is shown that the classical informations are recovered in this way. Analysis on the expectation values produces a distinction between measured phase and inferred phase values and they are related through the contribution of vacuum field.

  • We obtain the general formulation which can handle the rotational preionization spectrum of $H_2$ in the region above its ${H_2}^+$ ionization threshold, ($^2{\sum}_g^+$, ${\nu}^+=0$, $N^+=0$) converging toward its rotationally excited (${\nu}^+=0$, $N^+=2$) limit and perturbed by the vibrationally excited levels $7p{\pi}$ ${\nu}=1$ and $5p{\pi}$ ${\nu}^=2$. The formulation is based on phase-shifted multichannel quantum-defect theory. With this formulation, resonance structures are analyzed in detail.
