The year marked not only the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, but also the 55th anniversary of the founding of the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics (SIOM). In 2019, SIOM achieved major scientific and technological progress in many areas, with numerous important results: 1) SIOM achieved the capacity to independently research and develop a fusion-ignition laser driver. It developed its overall design, the technology of key parts, components and materials; and accomplished its system integration; 2) The Shanghai Superintense Ultrafast Laser Facility (SULF) was basically completed in 2019. Its overall operating efficiency has greatly increased to one shot every three minutes, a new world Phone: +86-21-69918461 record for output energy from a titanium-sapphire laser; 3) The Beidou-3 BeiDou Email: [email protected] MEO-21/22 inter-satellite laser link, Gaofen-7 satellite laser, and microgravity test satellite laser were all successfully launched in 2019; 4) SIOM’s laser distance sensor and three-dimensional imaging sensor fiber laser helped Chang'e-4 land Professor SHAO Jianda on the far side of the moon in January, 2019; and 5) SIOM’s multilayer dielectric Research Interest: Optical engineering and high-reflective coating was named best in its category for the fourth time at the optical materials International Laser Damage Competition in September, 2019. In 2019, SIOM began setting up its Hangzhou Branch, thus actively taking advantage of the opportunity accorded by the National Initiatives of Yangtze River Delta Integration. SIOM is prepared and looking forward to the new challenges ahead. In 2020, it will usher in a new round of reform and development, focusing on accelerating the development of our Center for Excellence in Ultra-intense Laser Science and building SIOM into one of the top global institutions in laser science and technology. SIOM must change with the times. However, just as our commitment to the exploration of laser science remains unwavering, we also maintain our commitment to "Better laser, better life." Let’s join hands to create a beautiful future!

While OAM beams can be readily derived from https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-019-13357-1 Gaussian laser beams with phase plates or gratings, this is far more challenging in the extreme ultra-violet (XUV), especially for the case of high XUV intensity. Here, we theoretically and numerically demonstrate that intense surface harmonics carrying OAM are naturally produced by the intrinsic dynamics of a relativistically intense circularly-polarized Gaussian beam (i.e. non-vortex) interacting with a target at normal incidence. Relativistic surface oscillations convert the laser pulses to intense XUV harmonic radiation via the well-known relativistic oscillating mirror mechanism. We show that the azimuthal and radial dependence of the harmonic generation process converts the spin angular momentum of the laser beam to orbital angular momentum resulting in an intense attosecond pulse (or pulse train) with OAM. 07 http://english.siom.cas.cn/ Wireless Energy Transmission Channel Modeling in Resonant Beam Charging for IoT Devices Power supply for Internet of Things (IoT) devices is one of the model.

In the time frame of ten weeks, we have gained great knowledge about the luxury industry in general and luxury brands operating in China, in particular. Additionally, we have acquired a deeper understanding on how to conduct an academic research. We would like to thank our tutor Harald Dolles who has been of great help with assistance and guidance along the construction of our thesis. School of Business, Economics and Law, June 2011 ____________________________ ______________________________ Jessica Wan Xi-Er Dang 2 Abstract Since the economic reform of China in 1978, the country has been under a process of industrialization and modernization. The average household income has risen, where the proportion of middle-class households, earning more than RMB 3 500 per month, has increased. In addition, there is a great share of the „China elite‟, which consists of the upper middle-class and the very wealthy. Due to China‟s enormous market of 1.3 billion people and the growth of wealthier households, the country has become the largest market for luxury. Many luxury brands are established in the market today, some with a greater presence, others more limited.

All eyes set on this vast 2.3 billion acres of landmass filled with infinite opportunity. It is on the same soil where 3 ordinary men succeed in doing what billion others can’t, by building a tutorial empire worth over US$5 billion in market value. Synopsis Wind the clock back to the year 1985. In the midst of the economic reform period, 3 college students bind together by a common ambition – to live the American dream. They are Cheng Dongqing, a overzealous hillbilly who refuses to accept his destiny of being a farmer; Meng Xiaojun, a self-confident, cynical intellectual who thinks he’s superior among all; and Wang Yang, a somewhat idealistic romanticist dreaming of becoming a poet.
