高功率掺镱双包层光纤放大器放大特性理论模拟

 运用掺镱双包层光纤放大器的理论模型，分析了连续和脉冲光放大时放大自发辐射(ASE)的计算方法。采用Runge-Kutta方法求解了考虑ASE稳态时掺镱双包层光纤放大器的放大特性，采用有限差分法求解了矩形、高斯和超高斯脉冲的放大特性。结果表明：用3 m长的双包层光纤、10 W的泵浦功率可以将脉宽3 ns、峰值功率为1 W的脉冲信号光峰值功率放大到15 kW左右；在饱和增益情况下，脉冲的波形变尖，宽度变窄；采用短的大模场双包层光纤和后向泵浦方式可以有效地降低ASE，并避免有害非线性效应。

Localization and Steering of Light in One-Dimensional Parity-Time Symmetric Photonic Lattices

We theoretically study the propagation dynamics of input light in one-dimensional mixed linear-nonlinear photonic lattices with a complex parity-time symmetric potential. Numerical computation shows simultaneous localization and steering of the optical beam due to the asymmetric scatter and interplay between Kerr-type nonlinearity and PT symmetry. This may provide a feasible measure for manipulation light in optical communications, integrated optics and so on.     

Ultra-broadband enhanced nonlinear saturable absorption for Mo0.53W0.47Te2 nanosheets

Alloying in two-dimension has been a hot spot in the development of new,versatile systems of optics and electronics.Alloys have been demonstrated to be a fascinating strategy to modulate the chemical and electronic properties of two-dimensional nanosheets.We firstly reported ultra-broadband enhanced nonlinear saturable absorption of Mo0.53W0.47Te2 alloy at 0.6,1.0,and 2.0μm.The nonlinear saturable absorption of Mo0.53W0.47Te2 saturable absorber(SA)was measured by the open aperture Z-scan technique.Compared to MoTe2 and WTe2 SAs,the Mo0.53W0.47Te2 SA showed five times deeper modulation depth,8.6%lower saturable intensity,and one order larger figure of merit.Thus,our research provides a method of alloys to find novel materials with more outstanding properties for optics and optoelectronic applications.
