Generation of 131 fs mode-locked pulses from 2.8μm Er:ZBLAN fiber laser

We demonstrated a femtosecond mode-locked Er:Zr F4-Ba F2-La F3-Al F3-Na F(Er:ZBLAN)fiber laser at 2.8μm based on the nonlinear polarization rotation technique.The laser generated an average output power of 317 m W with a repetition rate of 107 MHz and pulse duration as short as 131 fs.To the best of our knowledge,this is the shortest pulse generated directly from a mid-infrared mode-locked Er:ZBLAN fiber laser to date.Numerical simulation and experimental results confirm that reducing the gain fiber length is an effective way to shorten the mode-locked pulse duration in the Er:ZBLAN fiber laser.The work takes an important step towards sub-100-fs mid-infrared pulse generation from mode-locked Er:ZBLAN fiber lasers.     

QuEChERS-超高效液相色谱-串联质谱法测定畜禽毛发中5种违禁药物残留

毛发样品采用0.5%乙酸-乙腈提取,经45℃水浴震荡2 h,通过QuEChERS（PLS-A/PSA）分散净化,Agilent ZORBAX SB-Aq色谱柱（3.0 mm×100 mm, 1.8μm）分离,正离子扫描,电喷雾串联质谱多反应监测模式测定,内标法定量。5种违禁药物在0.2～20μg/L范围内线性关系良好（R²>0.997）,阿奇霉素和地西泮检出限（LOD）和定量限（LOQ）分别为0.1μg/kg和0.2μg/kg,氯霉素、金刚烷胺和利巴韦林检出限和定量限分别为0.2μg/kg和0.5μg/kg,回收率范围为84.8%～119.2%,相对标准偏差（RSD）均小于10%。本方法适用于畜禽毛发中5种违禁药物的定性定量分析,可实现对养殖过程的质量安全监管。     

多形性相变的分子动力学模拟

 本文利用分子动力学方法研究了KCl晶体在ρ＝ρ₀时的温度相变。面心立方（fcc）和体心立方（bcc）两种结构的径向分布函数随温度的变化的情况说明，在高压下，发生着bcc结构相fcc结构的转变，bcc结构是不稳定的。为了选取合理的势参数，利用了分子动力学程序在T＝0时的性质，计算了NaCl和KCl晶体的零温状态方程，研究了它们在压力作用下发生的多形性相变。计算表明，NaCl和KCl晶体将分别于18.8 GPa和5.9 GPa发生从fcc到bcc的多形性相变，这些值相当接近实验结果。着说明本文选用的势参数势有一定精度的。     

2 μm mode-locking laser performances of sol-gel-fabricated large-core Tm-doped silica fiber

High-power ultrafast fiber lasers operating at the 2 μm wavelength are extremely desirable for material processing, laser surgery, and nonlinear optics. Here we fabricated large-core(LC) double-cladding Tm-doped silica fiber via the sol-gel method. The sol-gel-fabricated Tm-doped silica(SGTS) fiber had a large core diameter of 30 μm with a high refractive index homogeneity(Δn=2 × 10~(-4)). With the newly developed LC SGTS fiber as the gain fiber, high-power mode-locking was realized. By using a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror(SESAM) as a mode locker, the LC SGTS fiber oscillator generated mode-locked pulses with an average output power as high as 1.0 W and a pulse duration of 23.9 ps at the wavelength of 1955.0 nm. Our research results show that the self-developed LC Tm-doped silica fiber via the sol-gel method is a promising gain fiber for generating high-power ultrafast lasers in the 2 μm spectral region.     

Diode-pumped tunable laser with dual Cr：LiSAF rods

We propose and demonstrate a simple approach to lower the thermal quenching effect and improve the output power of Cr:LiSAF lasers, which is accomplished by employing two laser rods. The resonator contains two laser rods and is designed by using two ``X' folding cavities in cascade. A tunable laser output of $\sim $ 180\,mW has been achieved with the pump of single-striped laser diodes. Compared with lasers using single gain rod, the laser with dual rods shows less severe thermal effect and increases the output by more than two times.
