A mode-selective coupler composed of both a single-mode fiber（SMF） and a twomode fiber（TMF） is incorporated into the cavity to act as a mode converter from LP01 mode to LP11 mode with broad spectral bandwidth. CVBs in different mode-locked states including single-pulse, multi-pulse, and bound pulse are obtained, for the first time to our best knowledge. The ultrafast CVBs with different operation states have potential applications in many fields such as laser beam machining, nanoparticle manipulation, and so on.展开更多

We determined the geometries and energies of the transition states and obtained the activation energies, activation entropies and the statistical A factors on the RHF/4 -31G singlet potential energy surface. The mode selective study reveals the intrinsic reaction coordi-nates(URC) of 1 ,1 and 1 ,2 dehydrogenations of methylenimine to be related with the H2C= group symmetrical stretch mode and the =NH group stretch mode, respectively. The vibration coupling between the normal coordinates occurs in either of these two reaction paths.展开更多

On this basis, the dynamical properties along the reaction path, canonical variational theory (CVT) rate constants and vibrational-mode-selected rate constants have been computed. The results show that the effect of the electron correlation energy on the activation barrier is large, and tiros the correction by MP4 method is effective; the results also show that the recrossing and tunneling effects exist, and thus the corrections by the variational transition state theory (VTST) and the small curvature (SC) approximation method are also effective. In the reaction, the coupling and energy transfer between mode 8(7) and reaction path are strong, so the rate is effectively enhanced while these modes, especially H2 stretching, are vibrationally excited.展开更多
