全光准稳态空间孤子对波长的依赖性

在进行全光准稳态空间孤子的实验中,发现在相同光强条件下,利用不同波长的光作为信号光束,准稳态孤子存在的时间不相同.一般来说,波长较长的光束形成准稳态孤子的时间区间较长.特殊的,当波长大至一定程度时,将形成稳态的空间孤子,这完全不同于以往所观察到的准稳态孤子 关键词： 屏蔽效应 光伏效应 空间孤子     

(1+2)维强非局域空间光孤子的相互作用

强非局域空间光孤子是指满足强非局域条件的空间孤子.在Snyder和Mitchell工作的基础上，获得了不共面对称斜入射(1+2)维强非局域空间光孤子对相互作用问题的精确解析解.结果表明，光束初始中心距离在大范围尺度内变化时，双孤子的演化都能形成类似DNA结构的稳定缠绕，这种稳定缠绕的结构与双孤子的初始相位差无关；光束中心在横截面上的投影轨迹一般是一个斜椭圆，通过改变两光束的初始中心距离和倾斜度可以控制该椭圆轨迹的变化.指出了利用(1+2)维强非局域空间光孤子的相互作用特性实现平面全光开关和全光互联的潜在可能性. 关键词： (1+2)维非局域非线性介质 空间光孤子的相互作用 全光开关 全光互联

All-optical steering of the interactions between multiple spatial solitons in isotropic polymers

All-optical steering of the nonlinear interactions between multiple spatial solitons can be performed in an isotropic photoisomerization polymer, by propagating an external control beam in perpendicular direction. Fusing, giving birth to another new soliton, and transferring energy can take place in the interactions of signal beams, which can be achieved by changing the incident position of the control beam, the initial relative phase and the power ratio between the signal beams and the control beam. These phenomena are physically explained, and they have significantly potential applications in optical signal readdressing, logic gating, and all-optical switching, etc.     

Enhancement of modulation depth of an all-optical switch using an azo dye-ethyl red film

The polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) film doped with an azo dye ethyl-red (ER) film is employed to demonstrate the properties of an all-optical switch by its photoinduced dichroism and birefringence. We show how to enhance remarkably the modulation depth of all-optical switches almost to 100% by using two linear polarization beams: one beam is inclined at 45o with respect to the probing beam and serves as a pumping beam, and the other beam is perpendicular to the probing beam and used as an erasing beam. Furthermore, a maximum-to-minimum output intensity ratio of 2000:1 is achieved in experiment, which is very useful and important for optical storages and image displays.

All-Optical Multifunctional Logic Gates for Image Information Using Photorefractive Two-Wave Mixing

In this paper, we propose all-optical multifunctional logic gates for image information using photorefractive (PR) two-wave mixing. The optical setup is simply configured compared with the other all-optical logic gates for image information. The XOR-, OR-, and AND-operation are all-optically performed in the same optical setup through the transitional response of the PR medium. One can switch these logic operations simply by means of the on-off control of the signal and the pump beam illumination. We analyze the spatial distribution of beam intensity in these logic gates using a finite-difference beam propagation method (FD-BPM) and the crosstalk between adjoining pixels is examined from the result. We also experimentally verify that the XOR-, OR-, and AND-gates are realized in the same optical setup.     

Laser-polarization-dependent and magnetically controlled optical bistability in diamond nitrogen-vacancy centers

We explore laser-polarization-dependent and magnetically controlled optical bistability (OB) in an optical ring cavity filled with diamond nitrogen-vacancy (NV) defect centers under optical excitation. The shape of the OB curve can be significantly modified in a new operating regime from the previously studied OB case, namely, by adjusting the intensity of the external magnetic field and the polarization of the control beam. The influences of the intensity of the control beam, the frequency detuning, and the cooperation parameter on the OB behavior are also discussed in detail. These results are useful in real experiments for realizing an all-optical bistate switching or coding element in a solid-state platform.     

Optical soliton with group delay in microring coupled-resonator optical waveguides

This paper derives the dispersion relation of microring coupled-resonator optical waveguides (CROWs) without any approximation by using the transfer matrix method. Based on the established dispersion relation of CROWs it obtains the slow group velocity and dispersion coefficient. It finds that the effect of dispersion on optical pulses can be adjusted to balance the effect of nonlinearity by changing coupling coefficient or loss, so optical soliton with group delay can be obtained in microring CROWs. The optical soliton with group delay is of great significance for applications of microring CROWs in delay lines and optical buffers of future all-optical communication systems.     

All-optical serial switcher

We present a device that is capable of switching a sequence of equally spaced pulses between two or more outputs, according to the switching information carried from the first pulse, that behaves as an addresser. The device acts as an all-optical serial switcher and it is based on the properties of a soliton beam in a transverse refractive index profile. We further study the interaction force between solitons.
