一种新型偶氮染料在扭曲向列相液晶显示取向中的应用

研究了一种新型偶氮材料sy03在光控取向中的应用。将sy03加入聚酰亚胺SE-3310(Nissan)与N,N-二甲基甲酰胺(DMF)的混合溶液中作为90°扭曲向列相液晶显示(Twisted nematic liquid crystal display,TN-LCD)的光取向材料,测量由它作为取向膜的扭曲向列型盒的电光特性与仅用SE-3310取向的扭曲向列型盒电光特性比较,发现sy03偶氮的加入使得扭曲向列型盒的响应时间短到98 ms、阈值电压也降低到1.7 V左右。而且随曝光时间的增加,响应时间和衬比度都有所提高,电光响应曲线也更为陡峭。加热到150℃后,其电光特性并没有明显变化,证明了它良好的热稳定性。最后通过测量偏振紫外吸收光谱,分析得出液晶分子易取向方向与激发光源偏振方向垂直。

A numerical investigation, based on the split-step Fourier transform algorithm of all optical switching of solitons in a low birefringent optical fiber is presented. The numerical algorithm is described in detail. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Mathematical modeling of two-photon thermal fields in laser–solid interaction

In this paper, we have developed an analytical model to study the temperature distributions in IR optical materials heated by laser pulses. Our model takes into account the two-photon absorption (TPA). The calculations are based on a three-dimensional model of heat diffusion in solids using the integral transform method. We find out the rigorous analytical expression of the thermal field when one considers both one- and two-photon absorption. The model is valid for any laser–solid system whose interaction can be described by the generalized Beer–Lambert law. Specific results are presented for an application of the model to ZnSe sample. We find out that TPA can produce detectable temperature variation.     

Propagation of elegant Laguerre–Gaussian beams through an annular apertured paraxial ABCD optical system

Based on the generalized Huygens–Fresnel diffraction integral and the expansion of the hard aperture function into a finite sum of complex Gaussian functions, the approximate analytical expression of elegant Laguerre–Gaussian beams passing through a paraxial ABCD optical system with an annular aperture is derived. Meanwhile, the corresponding closed-forms for the unapertured, circular apertured or circular black screen cases are also given. The obtained results provide more convenience for studying their propagation and transformation than the usual way by using diffraction integral formula directly. Some numerical examples are given to illustrate the propagation properties of elegant Laguerre–Gaussian beams.

衍射光学透镜色散特性的仿真研究

在白光照射下,衍射光学透镜的焦距不仅同材料色散和波长色散有关,而且还同孔径因子有关。基于折射率随波长变化的经验公式,利用自编的仿真计算程序包,得到了透镜焦距、材料色散、波长色散、孔径因子之间的关系曲线。所获得的理论分析和仿真计算结果为进一步设计消色差的纯衍射目视光学系统提供了理论依据,具有一定的指导意义。
