改变写入Bragg波长的干涉条纹运动的扫描式Talbot干涉仪

一种干涉条纹运动的扫描式Talbot干涉仪被用于改变光纤Bragg光栅的写入Bragg波长。在系统中,光纤光栅是由来自相位掩模的±1级衍射光经平面镜反射后在远场形成紫外干涉条纹写入的,其中,相位掩模被用作±1级衍射光的分束器。值得注意的是通过干涉条纹的运动来扫描写入光纤光栅,有效降低了Talbot干涉仪对写入光源相干性的要求。

大功率单色LED的空间相干特性

基于van Cittert-Zernike定理,从理论上计算出大功率单色发光二极管(LED)辐出光,在空间中传输后的空间相干性分布。计算结果表明,自发辐射的LED光源其辐射光在空间中传输后,由非相干光变为部分相干光,且其空间相干性与LED芯片的结构有关。实验上采用双缝干涉对LED辐射光的空间相干性进行测量,由干涉条纹的可见度与两点间的相干度之间的关系得出,非相干LED光源的辐射光在传输后为部分相干光。而采用间隔可调的双缝干涉测量两点间的相干度后发现,LED的芯片发光区域决定了其辐射光在传输中的空间相干性分布。理论计算的空间相干性分布与实验测量结果基本吻合。

Spectral shift of partially coherent flattened multi-Gaussian beams with a hole passing through ABCD optical systems

Based on flattened multi-Gaussian beam model and partially coherent theory, the expression for cross-spectral density of partially coherent flattened multi-Gaussian beam with a hole was given. The analytical expression for on-axis spectrum of partially coherent flattened multi-Gaussian beam with a hole passing through a paraxial ABCD optical system was derived. The spectral shifts of the partially coherent flattened multi-Gaussian beam with a hole propagating in free space and passing through the lens have been analyzed. The effects of the beam profile, spatial coherence parameter and the system parameters on the relative spectral shift have been discussed. Our results show that the inner radius of flattened multi-Gaussian beam with a hole determines its relative spectral shift in near field and its outer radius determines that in far field. For the flattened multi-Gaussian beam with a hole passing through a lens, the on-axis relative spectral shift changes sharply near the focal plane with the increase in Fresnel number and the spatial coherence parameter.     

The characteristics analysis of a new-style four-mirror axisymmetric-fold-combination cavity adapting to cylindrical discharge region

An axisymmetric-fold-combination (ASFC) cavity composed of two planar mirrors and spherical mirrors was designed. It is a stable-unstable resonator cavity. The light field of radial direction is Gaussian distribution. And in angular orientation, the distribution keeps invariant. It could generate annular CO₂ laser beam with excellent spatial coherence. And the spatial coherence is commendably realized with its stable-unstable cavity structure. The output light intensity distribution of this special model was discussed and simulated. With exterior lenses group, the output beams can be adjusted and controlled better to meet the manufactural requirements. Some references were provided for further research of the cavity with cylindrical discharge region.     

Coherent effect of near field of thermal microwave radiation from a heated body

It is shown that spatial variation in the temperature a periodically heated planar source causes partial spatial coherence of the near field of its microwave thermal radiation. This coherence can be revealed in the form of a peculiar interference pattern arising at a displacement of a diffraction grating along the source surface.     

Propagation of spatially partially coherent emission from a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser

Recently we observed a strong reduction of spatial coherence of the emission of large-aperture vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers when they are driven by microsecond electrical pulses [Opt. Express 13, 9337 (2005)]. We study the influence of this partial spatial coherence on the propagation characteristics. The spatial decoherence manifests itself in the formation of a Gaussian far-field intensity distribution. We measure the transverse pulse profile from near to far field and see that the shape-invariant far-field regime starts after 140 microm in the pulsed regime as opposed to several centimeters in continuous wave operation. This value matches quantitatively calculations made with a novel partially coherent propagation model without any free fitting parameters.     

What type of coherence of the optical field is observed in the Michelson interferometer

The types and corresponding coherence functions of the optical field are considered depending on the frequency and angular spectra of the field. The main concepts of the theory of coherence effects in the interference experiment with the amplitude splitting of the initial field are discussed. It is shown that, in strict correspondence with the theory of coherence of the random wave fields, the Michelson interferometer reveals manifestations of the transverse and longitudinal spatial (rather than temporal, as it is commonly adopted) coherence of the optical field; the purely temporal coherence of the optical field is revealed only under special conditions of the interference experiment. Beyond these conditions, either spatial or spatiotemporal coherence is revealed.     

光阑对高斯谢尔模型光束偏振特性的影响

根据光束的相干-偏振矩阵理论,应用柯林公式对部分相干光经光阑衍射后的轴向、横向偏振特性从近场区到远场区的演化规律进行了详细的数值计算。经研究表明,由于光阑的衍射效应,使得高斯谢尔模型光束的偏振出现非均匀分布,光束偏振度沿轴向、横向分布出现多峰振荡现象,并且随着光阑截断参数的减小、光束空间相干长度的增大和传输距离的增大,多峰振荡逐渐增强。光束在自由空间沿轴向传输时,在近场区偏振度分布均匀,与源平面相同,随着传输距离的增大和空间相干长度的减小,偏振度沿轴向分布逐渐增大,无振荡现象。     

Surface plasmons modulate the spatial coherence of light in Young's interference experiment

It is shown how surface plasmons that travel between the slits in Young's interference experiment can change the state of spatial coherence of the field that is radiated by the two apertures. Surprisingly, the coherence can both be increased and decreased, depending on the slit separation distance. This results in a modulation of the visibility of the interference fringes. Since many properties of a light field-such as its spectrum, polarization, and directionality - may change on propagation and are dependent on the spatial coherence of the source, our results suggest that the use of surface plasmons provides a new way to alter or even tailor the statistical properties of a light field.
