单纵模Nd:YAG激光泵浦H2气中的受激喇曼散射

用单纵模Nd:YAG激光(波长1.06μm,脉宽9ns,线宽0.003cm-1)泵浦氢气中的受激喇曼散射,产生很强的后向一级斯托克斯.当泵浦能量为120mJ,压力为1.5MPaH2时,后向和前向喇曼的光子转化效率分别为66%和15%,而在4MPa时两个数值分别为46%和39%.由于后向喇曼与前向喇曼和泵浦光的传播方向相反,二者的相互竞争产生了张弛振荡,使得后向和前向喇曼的时间波形都分裂为两个峰,后向喇曼的两个峰都被压窄到1ns,使峰值功率达到了泵浦光功率的二倍,这在前向喇曼是不可能的.而且后向喇曼的光束质量要大大优于泵浦光和前向喇曼的光束质量,在4MPaH2和脉冲重复频率为10Hz时,喇曼过程的放热使前向喇曼的光束质量变坏,但对后向喇曼的光束质量影响不大.计算表明,该实验条件下受激喇曼过程没有达到稳态,所有实验结果都可以而且只能用相关的瞬态受激喇曼理论解释.

Efficient compression of femtosecond pulses by stimulated Raman scattering

Femtosecond pulses at 496 nm were Raman-shifted in methane with 20% efficiency. The pulse duration could be reduced up to 6.5 times from 560 fs at the fundamental to 85 fs at the Stokes frequency (580nm), which is the shortest pulse duration generated in this way. It was shown experimentally that chirped-pulse Raman scattering avoids the limitations arising from self-phase modulation.     

Demonstration of soliton self-frequency shift below 1300 nm in higher-order mode, solid silica-based fiber

We demonstrate soliton self-frequency shift of more than 12% of the optical frequency in a higher-order mode solid, silica-based fiber below 1300nm. This new class of fiber shows great promise for supporting Raman-shifted solitons below 1300nm in intermediate energy regimes of 1 to 10nJ that cannot be reached by index-guided photonic crystal fibers or air-core photonic bandgap fibers. By changing the input pulse energy of 200fs pulses from 1.36 to 1.63nJ we observe Raman-shifted solitons between 1064 and 1200nm with up to 57% power conversion efficiency and compressed output pulse widths less than 50fs. Furthermore, due to the dispersion characteristics of the HOM fiber, we observe redshifted Cerenkov radiation in the normal dispersion regime for appropriately energetic input pulses.     

基于脉冲CO2激光锡等离子体光刻光源的极紫外辐射光谱特性研究

研究了不同条件下脉冲放电CO₂激光烧蚀平板锡靶产生的等离子体极紫外辐射特性, 设计并建立了一套掠入射极紫外平焦场光栅光谱仪, 结合X射线CCD探测了光源在6.5～16.8 nm波段的时间积分辐射光谱,得到了极紫外光谱随激光脉宽, 入射脉冲能量及背景气压的变化规律。实验结果发现：入射激光脉冲能量在30～600 mJ变化时,极紫外辐射光谱的强度随辐照激光脉冲能量的增加而增加, 但并不是线性关系, 具有饱和效应, 且产生极紫外辐射的脉冲能量阈值约为30 mJ,当激光脉冲能量为425 mJ时具有最高的转换效率,此时中心波长13.5 nm处2%带宽内的转换效率约为1.2%。激光脉冲半高全宽在50～120 ns范围内变化时, 极紫外辐射光谱的峰值位置均位于13.5 nm,光谱形状几乎没有什么变化, 但是脉宽从120 ns变到52 ns后,由于激光功率密度的提高,极紫外辐射强度也随之增强了约1.6倍。极紫外光谱的强度随背景气压的增大而迅速下降, 当腔内空气气压为200 Pa时, 极紫外辐射光子几乎被全部吸收,而当缓冲氦气气压为7×104 Pa时,仍能够探测到微弱的极紫外辐射信号,计算表明100 Pa的空气对13.5 nm极紫外光的吸收系数为3.0 m-1,而100 Pa的He气的吸收系数为0.96 m-1。

Evaluation of dual differential absorption lidar based on Raman-shifted Nd:YAG or KrF laser for tropospheric ozone measurements

Based on Raman-shifted Nd:YAG or KrF laser, a method of three-wavelength Dual DIfferential Absorption Lidar (DIAL) for tropospheric ozone measurements is proposed. A theoretical analysis and numerical simulations of the measurement error have been performed. The results show that this method can reduce the error in ozone measurements caused by the aerosol layer in the troposphere by a factor of ten. The proposed method is also shown to be insensitive to aerosol optical properties, and therefore, one does not need to know the wavelength dependence of aerosol scattering. The dual-DIAL with 277.1, 291.8, 313.2 nm radiation based on a Raman-shifted KrF laser can be used both during day- and night-time. The dual-DIAL with 289.0, 299.1, 316.1 nm radiation based on Raman-shifted Nd:YAG laser can only be used during night-time.

Wavelength-Dependent Photolysis of C3-C7 Aldehydes in the 280–330 nm Region

This article reviews the work over the past few years on the photolysis of propionaldehyde, n-butyraldehyde, n-pentanal, n-hexanal, and n-heptanal in the 280–330 nm region, obtained by combining laser photolysis with cavity ring-down spectroscopy. Absorption cross-sections of these aldehydes were measured. The HCO radical was observed as a photodissociation product. The HCO quantum yield was determined as a function of photolysis wavelength, aldehyde pressure, and nitrogen buffer-gas pressure. A scheme to group aldehydes according to similarity in photochemistry was proposed.
