Abstract. We present a suite of programs that implement decades-old algorithms for computation of seismic surface wave reflection and transmission coefficients at a welded contact between two laterally homogeneous quarter-spaces. For Love as well as Rayleigh waves, the algorithms are shown to be capable of modelling multiple mode conversions at a lateral discontinuity, which was not shown in the original publications or in the subsequent literature. Only normal incidence at a lateral boundary is considered so there is no Love–Rayleigh coupling, but incidence of any mode and coupling to any (other) mode can be handled. The code is written in Python and makes use of SciPy's Simpson's rule integrator and NumPy's linear algebra solver for its core functionality. Transmission-side results from this code are found to be in good agreement with those from finite-difference simulations. In today's research environment of extensive computing power, the coded algorithms are arguably redundant but SWRT can be used as a valuable testing tool for the ever evolving numerical solvers of seismic wave propagation. SWRT is available via GitHub (https://github.com/arjundatta23/SWRT.git).

A new monochromator scheme is presented in which an extra-focus constant-included-angle varied-line-spacing cylindrical-grating monochromator (extra-focus CIA-VCGM) is conveniently combined with a variable-included-angle varied-line-spacing plane-grating monochromator (VIA-VPGM). This dual-mode solution delivers high performance in the energy range from vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) to soft X-ray. The resolving power and the efficiency of this dual-mode grating monochromator are analyzed in detail based on realistic parameters. Comparisons with the commonly used variable-included-angle plane-grating monochromator and normal-incidence monochromator (VIA-PGM/NIM) hybrid monochromator are made.

X-screw, a load-sensitive linear actuator that we have proposed, has many desirable characteristics, but one drawback is that the linear motion is much slower than a conventional lead screw. When the axial load is small, the transmission efficiency of X-screw is approximately the same as that of a lead screw since the transmitted power is low in this case. Therefore we have developed a Dual Mode version of X-screw called ""DM X-screw"". This mechanism is able to automatically switch between lead screw mode and X-screw mode in response to the axial load. This feature makes it possible to apply DM X-screw to many mechanical systems. We have used this mechanism in a pantograph jack that makes use of its dual mode loadsensitive variable transmission properties. This jack can be operated with a small input force and unlike conventional jacks, several of these jacks can be used in combination to overcome the output force limitations of normal pantograph jacks.

PbF2: Er[Formula: see text], Yb[Formula: see text] phosphors with the property of dual-mode conversion were prepared successfully by the high-temperature solid-state reaction method. The structure and luminescence properties of the samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and fluorescence spectrum method. The luminescence mechanisms of the samples under single ultraviolet (UV) or infrared (IR) light source excitation and UV[Formula: see text]IR co-excitation were analyzed. Under 376, 980 and 1550[Formula: see text]nm excitation, the phosphors showed intense green and red emission, the green emission (520–570[Formula: see text]nm) and the red emission (650–680[Formula: see text]nm) originated from the 2H[Formula: see text]I[Formula: see text], 4S[Formula: see text]I[Formula: see text] and 4F[Formula: see text]I[Formula: see text] transitions of Er[Formula: see text] ions, respectively. The fluorescence enhancement effect was observed in the UV and IR co-excited samples, which is derived from the infrared photon reabsorption of the ions at metastable energy levels.
