Quantum diffusion of soliton microcombs has long been recognized as their fundamental noise limit. Here we surpass such limit by utilizing dispersive wave dynamics in multimode microresonators. Through the recoil force provided by these dispersive waves, the quantum diffusion can be suppressed to a much lower level that forms the ultimate fundamental noise limit of soliton microcombs. Our findings enable coherence engineering of soliton microcombs in the quantum-limited regime, providing critical guidelines for using soliton microcombs to synthesize ultralow-noise microwave and optical signals., Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures

This paper introduced the JiuTian Intelligent Network Simulation Platform, which can provide wireless communication simulation data services for the Open Innovation Platform. The platform contains a series of scalable simulator functionalities, offering open services that enable users to use reinforcement learning algorithms for model training and inference based on simulation environments and data. Additionally, it allows users to address optimization tasks in different scenarios by uploading and updating parameter configurations. The platform and its open services were primarily introduced from the perspectives of background, overall architecture, simulator, business scenarios, and future directions.

The dynamic dispatch (DD) of battery energy storage systems (BESSs) in microgrids integrated with volatile energy resources is essentially a multiperiod stochastic optimization problem (MSOP). Because the life span of a BESS is significantly affected by its charging and discharging behaviors, its lifecycle degradation costs should be incorporated into the DD model of BESSs, which makes it non-convex. In general, this MSOP is intractable. To solve this problem, we propose a reinforcement learning (RL) solution augmented with Monte-Carlo tree search (MCTS) and domain knowledge expressed as dispatching rules. In this solution, the Q-learning with function approximation is employed as the basic learning architecture that allows multistep bootstrapping and continuous policy learning. To improve the computation efficiency of randomized multistep simulations, we employed the MCTS to estimate the expected maximum action values. Moreover, we embedded a few dispatching rules in RL as probabilistic logics to reduce infeasible action explorations, which can improve the quality of the data-driven solution. Numerical test results show the proposed algorithm outperforms other baseline RL algorithms in all cases tested.

The temperature dependence of the steady-state fluorescence spectrum of anthracene crystals range from 300K to 500K had been investigated, which was in the temperature range of most tabletop laser-driven shock wave experiments. The interesting finding is that the fluorescence intensity of the 2-0 transition increases more rapidly than other transitions with the rising temperature. In particular, the transition intensity ratios {\gamma}n all shows a perfect exponential increasing curve, which can be used for fluorescence temperature sensing. The analysis of sensitivity {\eta} and random uncertainty {\Delta}T has demonstrated that the intensity ratio {\gamma}2 is the best comprehensive performance physical quantity for temperature sensing. The theoretical analysis and experimental results demonstrated that unusual intensity increasing of 2-0 transition was originated from the second excited triplet state T2, which was thermally coupled with the first excited singlet sate S1. In a word, we established a new fluorescence temperature sensing method based on the intensity ratio and clarified the mechanism of this method was the thermally activated singlet-triplet intersystem crossing., Comment: 10 pages, 5figures
