Effect of radiation-induced color centers absorption in optical fibers on fiber optic gyroscope for space application

The effects of color centers' absorption on fibers and interferometric fiber optical gyroscopes(IFOGs) are studied in the paper. The irradiation induced attenuation(RIA) spectra of three types of polarization-maintaining fibers(PMFs), i.e.,P-doped, Ge-doped, and pure silica, irradiated at 100 Gy and 1000 Gy are measured in a wavelength range from 1100 nm to1600 nm and decomposed according to the Gaussian model. The relationship of the color centers absorption intensity with radiation dose is investigated based on a power model. Furthermore, the effects of all color centers' absorption on RIA and mean wavelength shifts(MWS) at 1300 nm and 1550 nm are discussed respectively. Finally, the random walk coefficient(RWC) degradation induced from RIA and the scale factor error induced by MWS of the IFOG are simulated and tested at a wavelength of 1300 nm. This research will contribute to the applications of the fibers in radiation environments.     

Radiation-induced effects in polarization-maintaining optical fibers for interferometric gyroscope

Radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) in four types of polarization-maintaining optical fibers for interfer-ometric fiberoptic gyroscope (IFOG) at 1310 nm is measured. The measurements are conducted during and after steady-state γ-ray irradiation using a 60 Co source in order to observe significantly different RIA behavior and recovery kinetics. Mechanisms involving dopants and manufacturing process are introduced to analyze the RIA discrepancy as well as to guide the choice and hardening of optical fibers during the design of IFOG. Medium-accuracy IFOG using Ge–F-codoped fiber and pure silica core fiber can survive in the space radiation environment.

Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick模型中的能级劈裂与宇称振荡研究

Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick (LMG)模型原本描述的是核物理系统,然而近年来,人们发现它广泛存在于凝聚态物理、量子信息、量子光学中,因此对其研究兴趣正在升温.本文采用精确对角化的方法以及量子微扰理论计算和分析了LMG模型在费米子数量为有限N时的能谱结构.在U(1)极限下给出它的能级精确解,发现其相互交错成渔网结构.而离开U(1)极限,系统的能级总是奇偶宇称成对地分组,形成束缚态,并且宇称会发生振荡,给出了宇称交叉点的临界塞曼场的位置.而达到Z2极限,系统能级则在零塞曼场附近形成劈裂,解析地计算了这些能隙与塞曼场之间关系,并发现对于奇数和偶数的N,各能态宇称的行为有所差别,具体而言,奇数N系统各态在零塞曼场处会发生宇称改变,而偶数N不会.
