Theoretical study of relaxation oscillation in triply resonant OPOs

The relaxation oscillation in triply resonant optical parametric oscillators (TROs) is studied theoretically. With constant pumping, the intensity noise spectra of the signal wave consist of a zero frequency and a relaxation oscillation frequency. An accurate relation between the relaxation oscillation frequency and the pump power is obtained. The square of the inherent relaxation oscillation frequency in TROs is linear in the square root of the pump power under high-power pumping. Also, the decay rate varies rapidly with low-power pumping and slowly with high-power pumping. Significantly, when there is a relaxation oscillation in the pumping, the undulation of the signal photon density in TROs also contains the relaxation oscillation frequency of the pumping besides its inherent noise. When those two frequencies are close, a resonance will appear, which should be avoided in practice. PACS 42.65.Yj; 42.65.Sf; 42.60.Rn     

Parametric interaction of magnetostatic waves with a nonstationary local pump

A solution is obtained for the general problem of the nonstationary interaction of backward volume magnetostatic waves in films of yttrium-iron garnet with local parametric pumping. In the case of a large pump region, l≫λ, where λ is the wavelength of the backward volume magnetostatic waves, the problem reduces to a system of truncated equations for two packets of counter propagating waves. In the opposite case, l<λ, the exact problem of parametric interactions of the eigenmodes of a ferrite film (both counterpropagating and in the same direction) is solved numerically. Both cases are studied experimentally and good qualitative and quantitative agreement is obtained with the theory. For the first time, the reversal of a wave front and the time reversal of the shape of backward volume magnetostatic wave pulses are observed and a change in the propagation time for the peak of the signal pulse and a reduction in its width owing to pumping are recorded. Two operating regimes are identified for a nonstationary parametric backward volume magnetostatic wave amplifier with local pumping, which differ in the ratio of the duration of the pump pulse to the transit time for the wave through the local pump region, and the effect of the parametric excitation of two-dimensional spin waves on the interaction of backward volume magnetostatic waves with a local nonstationary parametric pump is determined.

磁声参量振荡的理论

在本文中,我们从磁-弹性耦合的宏观表达式,通过经典场论的方法,求得弹性振动和磁振璗的耦合方程,用来分析了伴随波长约等于铁氧体样品的线度的声振动而存在的磁振璗(磁声模)。文中指出,Spencer和LeCraw所发现的磁声效应是磁声模和静磁模在注入场的激发下产生的参量振璗现象(也可以说是热声子的电磁讯号的放大)。我们引用Berk等人在讨论一种半静磁操作放大器的文章中给出的公式,算出Spencer-LeCraw实验所需要的功率,其结果与记录的数据相接近。我们提出了使任一静磁模配合磁声模产生振璗的调谐条件以及降低激发功率和观测几十到几百兆赫的声频的办法。通过磁声模和静磁模的交变场向量的空间对称性的分析,我们推导出磁声参量振璗的选择定则:对于球体三个主要弹性振动模(旋转模、向径模和椭球模),(1)静磁模(n,m,r)的Walker指标n是偶数者不产生磁声效应;(2)指标m是奇数者不与旋转模产生磁声效应,m是偶数者不与向径模或椭球模产生磁声效应。我们也举出第一类本征振动中有只可能和n是偶数、m是奇数的静磁模产生参量振璗的例子。Spencer-LeCraw局限于使静磁场调谐在(110)模上,所观察到的现象仅仅是本文所给出理论预见的一个特殊情况。他们发现了椭球模和向径模的频率显著地出现,但并无旋转模的频率,这是上述的选择定则的具体验证。最后,我们指出,热声子的参量放大可形成铁氧体微波放大器的噪声的来源。

Second-order nonlinear optical materials for efficient generation and amplification of temporally-coherent and narrow-linewidth terahertz waves

We have considered forward and backward optical parametric oscillation and amplification, and difference-frequency generation for efficiently generating and amplifying terahertz waves in several second-order nonlinear optical materials. We have used a single crystal of CdSe as an example. We have also investigated GaSe, periodically-poled LiNbO₃ and LiTaO₃, and diffusion-bonded-stacked GaAs and GaP plates. The advantage of using birefringence in CdSe and GaSe is tunability of the output terahertz frequency. Furthermore, both CdSe and GaSe can be used to achieve the backward parametric oscillation without any cavity. On the other hand, in periodically-poled LiNbO₃ and LiTaO₃, one can take advantage of large diagonal elements of second-order nonlinear susceptibility tensor. In the diffusion-bonded-stacked GaAs and GaP plates, quasi-phase matching can be achieved by alternatively rotating the plates. We have shown that it is feasible to achieve forward optical parametric oscillation in the THz domain using these plates. The advantage of using coherent parametric processes is possibility of efficiently generating and amplifying temporally-coherent and narrow-linewidth terahertz waves. Compared with a noncollinear configuration, by using the parallel wave propagation configurations, the conversion efficiency can be higher because of longer effective interaction length among all the waves.

Compensating losses in negative-index metamaterials by optical parametric amplification

Optical parametric amplification controlled by the auxiliary electromagnetic field enables transparency, amplification, and oscillation with no cavity in strongly absorbing negative-index metamaterials. The opposite directions of the wave vector and the Poynting vector in such materials result in extraordinary optical properties, including "backward" phase matching and the generation of entangled pairs of left- and right-handed counterpropagating photons.     

Negative-index metamaterials: second-harmonic generation, Manley–Rowe relations and parametric amplification

Second harmonic generation and optical parametric amplification in negative-index metamaterials (NIMs) are studied. The opposite directions of the wave vector and the Poynting vector in NIMs results in a “backward” phase-matching condition, causing significant changes in the Manley–Rowe relations and spatial distributions of the coupled field intensities. It is shown that absorption in NIMs can be compensated by backward optical parametric amplification. The possibility of distributed-feedback parametric oscillation with no cavity has been demonstrated. The feasibility of the generation of entangled pairs of left- and right-handed counter-propagating photons is discussed. PACS 78.67.-n; 42.65.Ky; 42.65.Lm
