We study polarization squeezing of a light beam initially in the coherent state using the nonlinear interaction Hamiltonian [Formula: see text]. For the degree of polarization squeezing, we use a definition written in the final form by the authors and also used in earlier papers. We find that the polarization squeezing can be very high and the degree of polarization squeezing can be less than unity by a very small amount. We achieve the polarization squeezing even for very low beam intensity under some conditions involving phase angles in the polarization modes.

The main objective of this research work was to use Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based method for solving Power Flow Problem for a power system in Nigeria. This was achieved using the Backpropagation (multilayered feed-forward) Neural Network model. Two Backpropagation neural networks were designed and trained; one for computing voltage magnitudes on all buses and the other for computing voltage phase angles on all PV and PQ buses for different load and generation conditions for a 7-bus 132 kV power system in South-West Nigeria (Ayede). Due to unavailability of historical field records, data representing different scenarios of loading and/or generation conditions had to be generated using Newton-Raphson non-linear iterative method. A total of 250 scenarios were generated out of which 50% were used to train the ANNs, 25% were used for validation and the remaining 25% were used as test data for the ANNs. The test data results showed very high accuracy for the ANN used for computing voltage magnitudes for all test data with a Mean Square Error (MSE) of less than 10-6. Also, the ANN used for computing voltage phase angles showed very high accuracy in about 80% of the test data and acceptable results in about 97% of the test data. The MSE for all the test data results for the ANN computing voltage phase angles was less than 10-2.

ABSTRACTA multichannel spectroscopic ellipsometer based on the rotating-compensator principle was developed and applied to characterize nanocrystalline diamond thin film growth processes by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). With the newly-designed instrument, a time resolution of 32 ms is possible for spectra (1.5˜4.0 eV) in the Stokes vector of the light beam reflected from the surface of the growing film. Several advantages of the rotating-compensator over the simpler rotating-polarizer multichannel ellipsometer design are demonstrated here for diamond thin film growth. These include the ability to: (i) resolve the sign ambiguity in the p–s wave phase-shift difference Δ, (ii) obtain accurate Δ values for low ellipticity polarization states, and (iii) deduce spectra in the degree of polarization of the light beam reflected from the film/substrate. The degree of polarization has been applied to characterize the time evolution of light scattering during the nucleation of the diamond, as well as the time evolution of thickness non-uniformity over the probed area of the growing film. In this paper, a brief description of calibration and data reduction for the new instrument is also provided.
