Prompt Tuning has been a popular Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning method attributed to its remarkable performance with few updated parameters on various large-scale pretrained Language Models (PLMs). Traditionally, each prompt has been considered indivisible and updated independently, leading the parameters increase proportionally as prompt length grows. To address this issue, we propose Adaptive Codebook for Composite and Efficient Prompt Tuning (ACCEPT). In our method, we refer to the concept of product quantization (PQ), allowing all soft prompts to share a set of learnable codebook vectors in each subspace, with each prompt differentiated by a set of adaptive weights. We achieve the superior performance on 17 diverse natural language tasks including natural language understanding (NLU) and question answering (QA) tasks by tuning only 0.3% of parameters of the PLMs. Our approach also excels in few-shot and large model settings, highlighting its significant potential., Comment: EMNLP Findings 2024

We present a comprehensive theoretical investigation of the strain-modulated excitonic properties of uni-axially strained transition-metal dichalcogenide monolayers (TMD-MLs) by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) established on the basis of first principles. We show that imposing an uni-axial strain onto a MoS_$2$ monolayers leads to the diversified band dispersions of the bright exciton (BX), gray exciton (GX), and dark exciton (DX) states, as a consequence of the competitive interplay between strain-induced valley drift (VD) and momentum-dependent electron-hole exchange interaction (EHEI). While the band dispersions of BX doublet in the light-accessible small reciprocal area remain almost unchanged against strain, the band dispersion of DX is reshaped by an increasing uni-axial strain from a parabola to a Mexican-hat-like profile, featured with unusual sign-reversal of the heavy effective mass and strain-activated brightness. In contrast, the effective mass of GX is drastically lightened by uni-axial strain and remains always positive. We show that the strain-diversified exciton band dispersions leads to the distinct exciton diffusivities and angle-resolved optical patterns of BX, GX, and DX in a strained TMD-ML, suggesting the feasibility of {\it spatially} resolving spinallowed and -forbidden excitons in exciton transport experiments and angle-resolved optical spectroscopies., Comment: 18pages, 5 figures

We introduce SAM4MLLM, an innovative approach which integrates the Segment Anything Model (SAM) with Multi-Modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) for pixel-aware tasks. Our method enables MLLMs to learn pixel-level location information without requiring excessive modifications to the existing model architecture or adding specialized tokens. We introduce an inquiry-based approach that can effectively find prompt points for SAM to perform segmentation based on MLLM. It combines detailed visual information with the powerful expressive capabilities of large language models in a unified language-based manner without additional computational overhead in learning. Experimental results on pubic benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach., Comment: ECCV 2024

A light beam can be spatially structured in the complex amplitude to possess orbital angular momentum (OAM), which introduces a new degree of freedom alongside the intrinsic spin angular momentum (SAM) associated with circular polarization. Moreover, super-imposing two twisted lights with distinct SAM and OAM produces a vector vortex beam (VVB) in non-separable states where not only complex amplitude but also polarization are spatially structured and entangled with each other. In addition to the non-separability, the SAM and OAM in a VVB are intrinsically coupled by the optical spin-orbit interaction and constitute the profound spin-orbit physics in photonics. In this work, we present a comprehensive theoretical investigation, implemented on the first-principles base, of the intriguing light-matter interaction between VVBs and WSe$_{2}$ monolayers (WSe$_{2}$-MLs), one of the best-known and promising two-dimensional (2D) materials in optoelectronics dictated by excitons, encompassing bright exciton (BX) as well as various dark excitons (DXs). One of the key findings of our study is the substantial enhancement of the photo-excitation of gray excitons (GXs), a type of spin-forbidden dark exciton, in a WSe$_2$-ML through the utilization of a twisted light that possesses a longitudinal field associated with the optical spin-orbit interaction. Our research demonstrates that a spin-orbit-coupled VVB surprisingly allows for the imprinting of the carried optical information onto gray excitons in 2D materials, which is robust against the decoherence mechanisms in materials. This observation suggests a promising method for deciphering the transferred angular momentum from structured lights to excitons.

In this work, we present a comprehensive theoretical and computational investigation of exciton fine structures of WSe$_2$-monolayers, one of the best known two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMD's), in various dielectric-layer environments by solving the first-principles-based Bethe-Salpeter equation. While the physical and electronic properties of atomically thin nano-materials are normally sensitive to the variation of surrounding environment, our studies reveal that the influence of dielectric environment on the exciton fine structures of TMD-ML's is surprisingly limited. We point out that the non-locality of Coulomb screening plays a key role to suppress the factor of dielectric environment and drastically shrink the fine structure splittings between bright exciton (BX) states and various dark exciton (DX) states of TMD-ML's. The intriguing non-locality of screening in 2D materials can be manifested by the measurable {\it non-linear} correlation between the BX-DX splittings and exciton binding energies with varying the surrounding dielectric environments. The revealed environment-insensitive exciton fine structures of TMD-ML's suggest the robustness of prospective dark-exciton-based opto-electronics against the inevitable variation of inhomogeneous dielectric environment., Comment: 29 pages, 4 figures

We present a comprehensive theoretical investigation of the photo-generated excitons in transition-metal dichalcogenide monolayers (TMD-ML's) by Laguerre-Gaussian beams, a celebrated kind of twisted lights (TL's) carrying quantized orbital angular momenta (OAM). We show that the photo-excitation of TL incident to a TMD-ML leads to the formation of spatially localized exciton wave packets, constituted by the superposition of finite-momentum exciton states determined by the intriguing interplay between the multiple degrees of freedom of the optical and excitonic subsystems. Consequently, the TL-induced exciton wave packets yield profound directional photo-luminescences whose polar-angle-dependences are encoded by the transferred optical OAM and azimuthal angle part, despite OAM-irrelevant, optically resolves the exchange-split longitudinal and transverse exciton bands. Interestingly, the application of linearly polarized TL onto a valley-excitonic system mimics an exciton multiplexer allowing for selectively detecting the individual valley-mixed exciton bands, which are normally hardly measured spectrally., Comment: 33 pages, 10 figures

High degree of valley polarization of optically active excitons in transition-metal dichalcogenide monolayers (TMD-MLs) is vital in valley-based photonic applications but known to be likely spoiled by the intrinsic electron-hole exchange interactions. In this study, we present a theoretical investigation of the valley and optical properties of finite-momentum dark excitons in WSe$_2$-MLs by solving the density-functional-theory(DFT)-based Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) under the guidance of symmetry analysis. %We reveal that, in general, finite-momentum excitons are actually well immune from the exchange-induced valley depolarization, except for those with specific exciton momenta coincident with the $3\sigma_v$ and $3C_2'$ symmetries in the $D_{3h}$ point group of TMD-MLs. We reveal that, unlike the bright exciton inevitably subjected to electron-hole exchange interaction, inter-valley finite-momentum dark excitons in WSe$_2$-MLs are well immune from the exchange-induced valley depolarization and inherently highly valley-polarized under the enforcement of the crystal symmetries. More importantly, the superior valley polarizations of the inter-valley dark excitons in WSe$_2$-MLs are shown almost fully transferable to the optical polarization in the phonon-assisted photo-luminescences because of the native suppression of exchange-induced depolarization in the second-order optical processes. The analysis of phonon-assisted photo-luminescences accounts for the recently observed brightness, high degree of optical polarization and long lifetime of the inter-valley dark exciton states in tungsten-based TMD-MLs., Comment: 14 pages, 3 figures

Preserving a high degree of valley polarization of excitons in photo-excited transition-metal dichalcogenide monolayers (TMD-MLs) is desirable for the valley-based photonic applications, but widely recognized as a hard task hindered by the intrinsic electron-hole exchange interaction. In this study, we present a comprehensive investigation of valley-polarized finite-momentum excitons in WSe$_2$-MLs over the entire Brillouin zone by solving the density-functional-theory(DFT)-based Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) under the guidance of symmetry analysis. We reveal that finite-momentum excitons are actually in general well immune from the exchange-induced valley depolarization, except for those with specific exciton momenta directionally coincide with the axes associated with the $3\sigma_v$ and $3C_2'$ symmetries in TMD-MLs. Governed by the symmetries, the valley pseudo-spin texture of the full-zone exciton band in the momentum space is locally featured by individual skyrmion-like structures where highly valley-polarized finite-momentum exciton states are centred. Remarkably, we show that the high degrees of valley polarizations of the finite-momentum exciton states are excellently well transferable to the optical polarizations in the resulting phonon-assisted photo-luminescences, suggesting the prospective usefulness of those inter-valley excitons in valley-based photonics., Comment: 13 pages, 4 figures

With the both spin and valley degrees of freedom, the low-lying excitonic spectra of photo-excited transition-metal dichalcogenide monolayers (TMDC-MLs) are featured by rich fine structures, comprising the intra-valley bright exciton states as well as various intra- and inter-valley dark ones. The latter states can be classified as those of the spin- and momentum-forbidden dark excitons according to the violated optical selection rules. Because of the optical invisibility, the two types of the dark states are in general hardly observed and even distinguished in conventional spectroscopies although their impacts on the optical and dynamical properties of TMDC-MLs have been well noticed. In this Letter, we present a theoretical and computational investigation of the exciton fine structures and the temperature-dependent photo-luminescence spectra of strained tungsten diselenide monolayers (WSe$_2$-MLs) where the intra-valley spin-forbidden dark exciton lies in the lowest exciton states and other momentum-forbidden states are in the higher energies that are tunable by external stress. The numerical computations are carried out by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation for an exciton in a WSe$_2$-ML under the stress-control in the tight-binding scheme established from the first principle computation in the density functional theory. According to the numerical computation and supportive model analysis, we reveal the distinctive signatures of the spin- and momentum-forbidden exciton states of strained WSe$_2$-MLs in the temperature-dependent photo-luminescences and present the guiding principle to infer the relative energetic locations of the two types of DX's., Comment: 44 pages, 7 figures

In this paper, we present the precision predictions for three photon production in the standard model (SM) at the ILC including the full next-to-leading (NLO) electroweak (EW) corrections, high order initial state radiation (h.o.ISR) contributions and beamstrahlung effects. We present the LO and the NLO EW+h.o.ISR+beamstrahlung corrected total cross sections for various colliding energy when $\sqrt s \ge 200 {\rm GeV}$ and the kinematic distributions of final photons with $\sqrt s = 500 {\rm GeV}$ at ILC, and find that the NLO EW corrections, the h.o.ISR contributions and the beamstrahlung effects are important in exploring the process $e^+e^- \to \gamma\gamma\gamma$., Comment: 6 pages, 8 figures, accepted for publication in Physics Letters B

Aging experiments of a novel type of large area MCP-PMT made by JUNO collaboration were conducted.In these aging experiments, the multi-photoelectron spectrum and single photoelectron spectrum were measured daily,as well as the MCP resistance of the second PMT before and after the experiment. Two PMTs were aged successivelyfor cross check. The first PMT was aged for 52 days, while the other one was aged for 84 days. In order to study the mechanism of the aging process, the high voltage on the second PMT was increased to accelerate its aging process when the cumulative output of charge from its anode was about 4 C. From our study, it can be known that large area MCP-PMT aging had a strong relationship with the related MCPs. In accordance with the PMT aging curve,a PMT aging model was setup and a general aging formula was given.
