Turbulence-induced changes in degree of polarization, degree of coherence and spectrum of partially coherent electromagnetic beams

Based on a recently formulated unified theory of coherence and polarization, a method is described to study turbulence-induced changes in the polarization, the coherence and the spectrum of partially coherent electromagnetic beams on propagation. The electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beam is taken as a typical example of partially coherent electromagnetic beams, and the closed-form expressions for the degree of polarization, the degree of coherence and the spectrum of electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beams propagating through atmospheric turbulence are derived in the quadratic approximation of Rytov's phase structure function. Some interesting results are obtained, which are illustrated by numerical examples and are explained in physics.     

Changes in the spectrum and polarization of polychromatic partially coherent electromagnetic beams in the turbulent atmosphere

The polychromatic partially coherent electromagnetic Cosh-Gaussian (EChG) beam is introduced and taken as a typical example of polychromatic partially coherent electromagnetic beams. Based on the unified theory of coherence and polarization, the expressions for the spectrum and the degree of polarization of polychromatic partially coherent EChG beams in the turbulent atmosphere are derived, and the conditions for keeping polarization invariance and for determining the position where the degree of polarization becomes zero along the propagation path are also given. It is shown that the normalized spectrum is close to the normalized source spectrum due to turbulence. The reasonable physical explanation of spectral shift is given. On the other hand, the bandwidth does not affect the degree of polarization, and the degree of polarization tends to the value at the source plane due to turbulence in the long-propagation distance limit. The spectrum and polarization of polychromatic electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model (EGSM) beams and electromagnetic Gaussian (EG) beams in turbulence are treated as special cases of polychromatic partially coherent EChG beams.     

Changes in the spectrum, polarization, and coherence of stochastic spatially and spectrally partially coherent electromagnetic J0-correlated Schell-model pulsed beams propagating in free space

Taking the stochastic electromagnetic J ₀-correlated Schell-model pulsed (JSMP) beam as a typical example of stochastic spatially and spectrally partially coherent electromagnetic pulsed beams, the analytical expressions for the cross-spectral density matrix, spectral density, spectral degree of polarization and spectral degree of coherence of stochastic electromagnetic JSMP beams propagating in free space are derived, and used to study the changes in the spectrum, polarization, and coherence of stochastic spatially and spectrally partially coherent electromagnetic JSMP beams. It is shown that the on-axis spectrum is blue-shifted in free-space propagation and is dependent on the pulse temporal coherence length and spatial correlation parameter. The distribution of the on-axis spectral degree of polarization depends on the frequency and spatial correlation parameter. The spectral degree of coherence increases with increasing pulse temporal coherence length. The results derived are interpreted physically.

Polarization Changes of Partially Coherent Electromagnetic Vortex Beams Propagating in Turbulent Atmosphere

We investigate the polarization change of partially coherent electromagnetic vortex beams propagating in turbulent atmosphere. It is shown that the polarization of the beams will experience changes, and the changes of the polarization are dependent on the spatial coherence, topological charges of the beams, and the degree of polarization of the source plane and the atmospheric turbulence. The results obtained may have applications in space optical communication.     

Nonparaxial propagation of spatially and spectrally partially coherent electromagnetic Cosh-Gaussian pulsed beams

Based on the generalized Rayleigh–Sommerfeld diffraction integral, the analytical expression for 3×3 cross-spectral density matrix of nonparaxial spatially and spectrally partially coherent electromagnetic Cosh-Gaussian (ChG) pulsed beams propagating in free space is derived, and used to formulate the spectral density and spectral degree of polarization of electromagnetic pulsed beams at the z-plane. It is found that the parameters f and f_αα are the key parameters in determining the nonparaxiality of spatially and spectrally partially coherent electromagnetic ChG pulsed beams. And the decentered parameter, pulse duration and temporal coherence length can change the nonparaxial behavior of the electromagnetic ChG pulsed beams. The effect of decentered parameter, pulse duration and temporal coherence length on the spectral density and spectral degree of polarization of electromagnetic ChG pulsed beams is illustrated through numerical calculations. Propagation of nonparaxial spatially and spectrally partially coherent electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model pulsed beams can be treated as a special case when the decentered parameter of electromagnetic ChG pulsed beams approaches to zero.     

Diffraction properties of partially coherent electromagnetic four-petal Gaussian beams

The concept of existing scalar coherent four-petal Gaussian (FPG) beam is extended to the more general partially coherent electromagnetic four-petal Gaussian (PCFPG) beam, and the cross-spectral density matrix of the latter is derived in analytical expressions. Intensity distributions and degree of polarization in free space are investigated by numerical examples. Results show that propagation properties of the PCFPG beam are different from their scalar coherent and scalar partially coherent counterparts. Both intensity distributions and polarization strongly depend on transversal coherence lengths. When the propagation distance increases to a large value, intensity distributions of PCFPG beams convert into the Gauss profile. Polarization of PCFPG beams shows an oscillating characteristic upon propagation, and the oscillation would enhance with the increase of coherence lengths. These results may find potential applications in beam shaping and free space optical communications.     

Spatial correlation properties of apertured partially coherent beams propagating through atmospheric turbulence

The spatial correlation properties of apertured partially coherent beams propagating through atmospheric turbulence are studied in detail. By using the quadratic approximation of the Rytov’s phase structure function and the finite complex Gaussian expansion of the aperture function, the closed-form expression for the spectral degree of coherence of apertured partially coherent beams in turbulence is derived. It is shown that the larger the aperture width h is, and the smaller the spatial correlation length σ₀ of the source is, the less the spatial correlation is affected by turbulence. Specially, the influence of turbulence on the spatial correlation for unapertured partially coherent beams is less than that for apertured ones. The spectral degree of coherence is shown to possess phase singularities for apertured partially coherent beams, but the phase singularities behavior disappears when the turbulence is strong enough, which is very different from the behavior of unapertured partially coherent beams. In addition, a comparison between the width of the spectral degree of coherence and that of the spectral intensity of apertured partially coherent beams in turbulence is also given, and some interesting results are obtained. The results are interpreted physically. PACS  42.68.Bz; 42.79.Ag; 42.25.Fx     

Polarization fluctuations of partially coherent Hermite–Gaussian beams in a slant turbulent channel

The propagation of a partially coherent Hermite–Gaussian beam in a slant turbulent channel is studied. The analytical formula for the quantum degree of polarization of a partially coherent Hermite–Gaussian beam is derived based on the quantum Stokes operators and the generalized Huygens–Fresnel principle. It is shown that the zenith angle slightly affects the polarization degree of partially coherent Hermite–Gaussian beams, and the changes of polarization degree are affected by the coherence length, the detection photon-number and the ground refractive index structure parameter. Furthermore, the numerical simulations show that a partially coherent Hermite–Gaussian beam with bigger coherence length, higher photon-number level, lower beam order, shorter wavelength is less affected by the turbulence. These results indicate that one can choose the partially coherent Hermite–Gaussian beam with bigger coherence length, lower beam order, shorter wavelength, higher detection photon-number and set the size of transmitting aperture w₀$w_0$ as about 0.065 m to improve the performance of a polarization-encoded free-space quantum communication system.

Effects of extremely strong turbulent medium on scintillations of partially coherent annular and flat-topped Gaussian beams

Scintillation index of partially coherent annular and partially coherent flat-topped Gaussian beams propagating in horizontal links is found at the receiver origin when these beams propagate in extremely strong atmospheric turbulence. Scintillation index of coherent versions of such beams attain unity saturation value whereas the decrease in the degree of source coherence results in the decrease of the scintillations. At a fixed degree of partial coherence, thin ring sized annular beams possess smaller scintillations than thick ones. For partially coherent flat-topped Gaussian beams, higher flatness yields smaller intensity fluctuations. In extremely strong turbulence, partially coherent annular and partially coherent flat-topped Gaussian beams have smaller scintillations when compared to partially coherent single Gaussian beam scintillations.     

Effects of coherence and polarization on the beam spreading and direction through atmospheric turbulence

Based on extended Huygens-Fresnel principle, analytical expressions of beam width and far-field angular spreading for electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model (EGSM) beams propagating in atmospheric turbulence are obtained. The effects of coherence and polarization on beam spreading and directionality in atmospheric turbulence are investigated in detail. A condition is obtained under which beams with different degrees of spatial coherence and polarization will generate the same far-field angular spreading in atmospheric turbulence. Our results have potential application in long-distance free space optical communications.     

Polarization properties of polarized and partially coherent Electromagnetic Gaussian-Schell model pulse beams on slant path in turbulent atmosphere

This paper is based on the unified theory of coherence and polarization of stochastic electromagnetic beams and the extended Huygens–Fresnel principle, combined with the quadratic approximation of Rytov’s phase structure function and the generalized Stokes parameters. We have derived the novel expressions for the cross-spectral density matrix elements and the degree of cross-polarization of a class of elliptically polarized spatially and spectrally partially coherent Electromagnetic Gaussian-Schell model pulse (EGSMP) beams propagating through atmospheric turbulence along a slant path. Additionally, we calculate and analyze the effects of the turbulent intensity, the initial pulse duration, waist width of the beam, the spatial coherence length and temporal coherence length et al. on the polarization properties of fully polarized and partially coherent EGSMP beams. Finally, a comparison of the impact of those factors on the partially polarization beams is made. The results show that the influences of the turbulent intensity, the initial pulse duration, waist width of the beam, the spatial coherence length and temporal coherence length et al. on the polarization properties of fully polarized and partially coherent EGSMP beams are larger. While the effects of those parameters on the partially polarization and partially coherent EGSMP beams are smaller. It is noted that the results of this paper have established sound theoretical basis on the topic of improving performance of the laser system propagating through the atmospheric turbulence.

Propagation of partially coherent Bessel-Gaussian beams in turbulent atmosphere

The characteristics of partially coherent Bessel-Gaussian beams propagating in turbulent atmosphere are investigated. Based on the extended Huygens–Fresnel principle, the influence of topological charges and coherence of the source on the intensity and the degree of coherence in the received plane are considered. The influence of atmospheric turbulence on beam profile and coherence in the received plane is also analyzed. It is found that a Bessel-Gaussian shaped intensity distribution will eventually transform into a Gaussian distribution after propagating in turbulent atmosphere. Meanwhile, topological charges, coherence of the source and atmospheric turbulence will also influence the propagation characterizations of the beams.     

扰动大气中部分相干光束的光谱特性

对扰动大气中传输的部分相干光束的光谱演化特性进行了研究。利用推广的惠更斯一菲涅耳原理．得到了扰动大气中部分相干光束的交叉光谱密度,据此分析了在大气扰动影响下部分相干光束的频移效应以及空间相干度的变化规律。结果表明：由于大气扰动的影响,在光束传输过程中,轴上光谱先是出现蓝移,蓝移量先增大后减小,传输足够远距离之后将出现红移,并且光束的相干性越差,就需要传播越远的距离才会发生红移;而光束的空间相干度随传输距离增大到一定程度之后开始减小,最终将趋于零。通过与自由空间中部分相干光的传输特性比较,发现当光束的传输距离比较小时．大气扰动效应对光谱特性的影响很小,只有在传输距离足够远时,大气扰动对光谱特性的影响才会明显地表现出来。
