Multimode squeezed states produced by a confocal parametric oscillator

We investigate the spatial behaviour of the quantum-noise-reduction spectrum of the vacuum state emitted by a degenerate optical parametric oscillator below threshold. In view of possible experimental implementations, we consider a mode-degenerate resonator and two matching lenses and show that, for the realistic case of a finite-width pump, significant level of squeezing can be observed in a very small region of the beam.

Acousto-optic modulation in magnetised diffusive semiconductors

The modulation of an intense electromagnetic beam induced by the acousto-optic (AO) effect has been analysed in a transversely magnetised semiconductor-plasma medium. The effect of carrier diffusion on the threshold field and gain profile of the modulated wave has been extremely investigated using coupled mode theory. The origin of the AO interaction is assumed to lie in the induced nonlinear diffusion current density of the medium. By considering the modulation process as a four wave parametric interaction an expression for effective third-order AO susceptibility describing the phenomena has been deduced. The modulation is greatly modified by propagation characteristics such as dispersion and diffraction due to dielectric relaxation of the acoustic mode. The threshold pump field and the steady state growth rates are estimated from the effective third-order polarisation in the plasma medium. Analytical estimation reveals that in the presence of enhanced diffusion due to excess charge carriers the modulated beam can be effectively amplified in a dispersionless acoustic wave regime. The presence of an external dc magnetic field is found to be favourable for the onset of diffusion induced modulational amplification of the modulated wave in heavily doped regime.

A ring-cavity for a quadrupled Nd-Yag lasera

Summary A new high-powered ultraviolet laser system is proposed. The system doubles the infrared light from a Nd-Yag laser mode-locked at 100 MHz, injects this light into a storage-ring cavity to accumulate a high power in the visible and then doubles this into the ultraviolet at 2600 ?. The power levels anticipated at this wavelength are much larger than those of commercially available c.w. lasers. The new system can have a far-reaching impact in basic research and, even more so, in a great many industrial applications.

Solitary waves in the Madelung's fluid: Connection between the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the Korteweg-de Vries equation

An investigation to deepen the connection between the family of nonlinear Schr?dinger equations and the one of Korteweg-de Vries equations is carried out within the context of the Madelung's fluid picture. In particular, under suitable hypothesis for the current velocity, it is proven that the cubic nonlinear Schr?dinger equation, whose solution is a complex wave function, can be put in correspondence with the standard Korteweg-de Vries equation, is such a way that the soliton solutions of the latter are the squared modulus of the envelope soliton solution of the former. Under suitable physical hypothesis for the current velocity, this correspondence allows us to find envelope soliton solutions of the cubic nonlinear Schr?dinger equation, starting from the soliton solutions of the associated Korteweg-de Vries equation. In particular, in the case of constant current velocities, the solitary waves have the amplitude independent of the envelope velocity (which coincides with the constant current velocity). They are bright or dark envelope solitons and have a phase linearly depending both on space and on time coordinates. In the case of an arbitrarily large stationary-profile perturbation of the current velocity, envelope solitons are grey or dark and they relate the velocity u₀ with the amplitude; in fact, they exist for a limited range of velocities and have a phase nonlinearly depending on the combined variable x-u_{0 s} (s being a time-like variable). This novel method in solving the nonlinear Schr?dinger equation starting from the Korteweg-de Vries equation give new insights and represents an alternative key of reading of the dark/grey envelope solitons based on the fluid language. Moreover, a comparison between the solutions found in the present paper and the ones already known in literature is also presented.

Stability of testing hypotheses

The stability of testing hypotheses is discussed. Differing from the usual tests measured by Neyman-Pearson lemma, the regret and correction of the tests are considered. After the decision is made based on the observationsX ₁,X ₂, ⋅⋅⋅,X _n, one more piece of datumX _n+1 is picked and the test is done again in the same way but based onX ₁,X ₂, ⋅⋅⋅,X _n,X _n+l There are three situations: (i) The previous decision is right but the new decision is wrong; (ii) the previous decision is wrong but the new decision is right; (iii) both of them are right or both of them are wrong. Of course, it is desired that the probability of the occurrence of (i) is as small as possible and the probability of the occurrence of (ii) is as large as possible. Since the sample size is sometimes not chosen very precisely after the type I error and the type II error are determined in practice, it seems more urgent to consider the above problem. Some optimal plans are also given. Project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the Doctoral Programme Foundation.
