A generalized formulation for the refractive index at the geometric-optics limit

Starting from the concept of rapidity considered as generalization of the group velocity, we establish a generalized mathematical expression for the refractive group index of a material medium with little refraction at sufficiently small wavelengths, this index becoming approximately the refractive index at the geometric-optics limit and the phase velocity being approximately equal to the group velocity at the above limit. As main result, we derive an approximate relationship for the refractive index of a medium of small refraction at the geometric-optics limit. This medium is found to be left-handed at sufficiently small wavelengths.     

Nonlinear refractive indices of nonlinear liquids: wavelength dependence and influence of retarded response

We use liquid-filled capillary fibers with different core diameters to precisely characterize the nonlinear refractive index of the highly nonlinear liquids carbon disulfide, nitrobenzene, and toluene. We present measurements with two different femtosecond pump sources at wavelengths of 1032 and 1560 nm. The large nonlinearity of the liquids results from the retarded nonlinear optical response of the liquid molecules which includes a strong non-instantaneous contribution due to molecular reorientation. The nonlinear refractive index of the liquids is determined by fitting numerical simulations based on solving the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation including retarded response to the measured broadened output spectra. Our work is important for the novel field of near- and mid-IR supercontinuum generation in liquid-core optical fibers.     

Temperature-dependent Sellmeier equation for the refractive index of stoichiometric lithium tantalate

We present a temperature-dependent Sellmeier equation for the refractive index of stoichiometric LiTaO3. The extraordinary refractive index, for the range 0.39-4.1 microm and for temperatures of 30-200 degrees C, are based on previously published data [Jpn. J. Appl. Phys. 41, 465 (2002)] and on measured data derived from quasi-phase-matched (QPM) resonances. We used the new Sellmeier coefficients that we obtained to calculate the QPM wavelengths for an optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based on periodically poled stoichiometric LiTaO3 pumped at 1064 nm. The measured wavelengths of the OPO were in good agreement with our predictions.     

Effect of UV radiation on the optical and some structural properties of irregular rayon acetate fibers

This recent study shed demonstration on how the structural parameters changes due exposure to UV radiation and different wavelengths. So this article throws light on the changes of the optical properties and some structural properties due exposure to UV radiation and different wavelengths on irregular rayon acetate fibers. Pluta polarizing interference microscope is used to study the changes for refractive indices and birefringence with different exposure times at three different intensities on irregular rayon acetate fibers. As the principal optical parameters determined, these give an indication of the isotropic refractive index, stress optical coefficient, stress due to UV radiation, optical configuration parameter, segment anisotropy, the number of molecules per unit volume and polarizability of a monomer unit can be obtained. Also by using different wavelengths are given the spectral dispersions, Cauchy's dispersion constants, the resonant wavelength, the oscillation energy, the dispersion energy, the dielectric constant and the dielectric susceptibility for rayon acetate fibers with different wavelengths at room temperatures. Illustrations are given using graphs and microinterferograms.
