This paper shows that the Fourier-processing based modulation of short laser pulses can be successfully used for all-optical image transfer. The system under consideration consists of a transmitter, where the transferred image modulates the frequency profile of a carrier pulse, and a receiver, where after the reverse processing an original image is restored. The main limitations are discussed and the information capacity of a single pulse is obtained. The results from preliminary experiments using a CPM-ring dye laser as a source of carrier pulses are presented. 相似文献

3+ :Ho3+:YAG laser is operated in active mirror configuration. This laser is characterised by a rather thin crystal (3 mm thickness
in our experiment) and a very short resonator (about 3.2 mm). Therefore this laser is well suited for operation in a single
longitudinal mode. Single-frequency operation is demonstrated with and without an intracavity etalon. It is further shown
that single-frequency emission is reached with a stable cw emission. With a slight detuning of the outcoupling mirror, spiking
can be achieved, resulting in an emission on different lines. The assignment of the observed laser lines to the known transitions
between Stark sublevels of the 5I7 and the 5I8 level is discussed and compared with predictions in the literature.

In this work a cavity design for double-pulse generation in Q-switched mode from a single laser is proposed, based on the
construction of a second laser channel using a FTIR (frustrated total internal reflection) Q-modulator. A time interval between
the two pulses from 500 ns to 120 μs is obtained in a Nd:YAG laser. A comparison with other methods and cavity designs for
double-pulse generation is presented. The case when this technique is applied on a tunable laser with metastable upper laser
level (Cr:LiCAF, Cr:LiSAF, Alexandrite, Co:MgF2 or other) is also considered. Even though the method presented in the paper does not rely only on the cavity configuration
proposed, some advantages can be obtained – both polarization and wavelength-independent tuning without polarization and wavelength
restrictions in combination with the possibility of different wavelengths and polarizations in each pulse. Moreover, by using
an active medium generating wavelengths around and up to 3 μm, the Pockels-cell-Q-switch optical transmission problems can
be avoided.

We present a real-time imaging measurement in the terahertz (THz) frequency region. The dynamic subtraction technique is used to reduce long-term optical background drift. The reflective images of two targets, a Nikon camera’s lens cap and a plastic toy gun, are obtained. For the lens cap, the image data were processed to be false-color images. For the toy gun, we show that even under an optically opaque canvas bag, a clear terahertz image is obtained. It is shown that terahertz real-time imaging can be used to nondestructively detect concealed objects. 相似文献

The noncontact imaging of the buried structures is carried out in the open-air atmosphere by using the photothermal deflection
(PTD) method. We applied these techniques to the layered samples. Besides the PTD images for the optically opaque buried structures,
the parameters of the materials such as thermal diffusivity can also be calculated from the PTD amplitude and phase signal
in the PTD scanning images. When the PTD signals at two different modulation frequencies are used, the thermal diffusivity
of the buried structure can be obtained from the PTD signal outside of the sample nondestructively.

We performed calculations for a chirped-pulse-amplification laser system with a sub-100-fs pulse duration including the finite
size of gratings in an aberration-free stretcher/compressor design. Both the higher-order phase dispersion and the spectral
clipping, which is due to the finite size of the optics in the stretcher and the compressor, are taken into account in the
calculation. We discuss the influence of both phase dispersion and spectral clipping on the important parameters of the recompressed
pulse, such as pulse duration, pulse contrast, and peak intensity, employing different phase-dispersion compensation methods.
The calculations show that the use of a small compressor grating reduces the higher-order phase errors and smoothes the sharp
spectral cut-off caused by spectral clipping in the stretcher, which consequently improves the pulse contrast ratio of the
main pulse to the pedestal.

When used with coherent light, optical imaging systems are inherently unable to reproduce both the amplitude and the phase of a two-dimensional field distribution. This is because their impulse response function varies slowly from point to point, a property known as non-isoplanatism. For sufficiently small objects, this usually results in a phase distortion and has no impact on the measured intensity. Here, we show that the intensity distribution can be dramatically distorted when extended objects are imaged. We illustrate the problem using two simple examples: the pinhole camera and the thin lens. The effects predicted by our theoretical analysis are confirmed by experimental observations. 相似文献

We describe a distributed computational imaging system that employs an array of feature specific sensors, also known as compressive imagers, to directly measure the linear projections of an object. Two different schemes for implementing these non-imaging sensors are discussed. We consider the task of object reconstruction and quantify the fidelity of reconstruction using the root mean squared error (RMSE) metric. We also study the lifetime of such a distributed sensor network. The sources of energy consumption in a distributed feature specific imaging (DFSI) system are discussed and compared with those in a distributed conventional imaging (DCI) system. A DFSI system consisting of 20 imagers collecting DCT, Hadamard, or PCA features has a lifetime of 4.8× that of the DCI system when the noise level is 20% and the reconstruction RMSE requirement is 6%. To validate the simulation results we emulate a distributed computational imaging system using an experimental setup consisting of an array of conventional cameras. 相似文献

85 Rb, 5s2S1/2(F”=2)→6p2P1/2(F’=2,3) absorption resonance with the 88Sr+, 5s2S1/2→5p2P1/2 transition is exploited to provide a simple, effective frequency reference for a laser cooling/fluorescence excitation source
applied to single Sr+ ions. A modulation-free frequency stabilization system has been designed which uses the differential signal from two frequency-displaced
beams traversing a Rb cell and which probe the Doppler-broadened Rb S–P lineshape at microwatt power levels. The method is
applied to frequency lock a 422-nm frequency-doubled diode laser system that is used for excitation of a single 88Sr+ ion. Stable, long-term laser cooling and fluorescence are achieved using the frequency-stabilized 422-nm source resulting
in observed ion confinement times without adjustment of over 8 h, together with an improvement in single-ion loading efficiency.

We demonstrate intracavity frequency doubling of a standard femtosecond Ti:sapphire oscillator. The cavity is extended with
a pair of focusing mirrors and a 0.5-mm-thick BBO crystal. We achieve a repetition rate of 50 MHz and simultaneously generate
22 mW of 55-fs pulses at 810 nm and 200 mW of 73-fs pulses at 405 nm, which corresponds to 4 nJ per pulse. We create a total
of 330-mW, 405-nm light when pumping the Ti:sapphire crystal with 5.7 W from an Ar-ion laser, corresponding to a conversion
efficiency of 5.7%. No saturation is found, which implies that higher outputs can be achieved with higher pump rates. Preliminary
results from the use of blue pulses as pump in an optical parametric amplifier seeded by pulses from a photonic crystal fiber
are presented.

A significantly improved far-infrared laser has been used to generate optically pumped laser emissions from 26 to 150 μm for
CD3OH. Using an X–V-pumping geometry, several new laser emissions have been found for CD3OH. In addition, an increase in power, by factors from 10 to 1000, for many of the previously known shorter-wavelength laser
lines, below 100 μm, has been observed. Frequency measurements for several lines have also been performed and have been reported
to a fractional uncertainty up to ±2×10-7, permitting the spectroscopic assignment of the laser transition. One of the frequency-measured lines, 44.256 μm observed
using the 10R34 pump, has confirmed the assignment of the previously reported FIR emission (n,K;J)=(1,7;20)?(0,8;20)A in the
ground vibrational state.

We developed a high-power oscillator–regenerative amplifier femtosecond laser system. Based on chromium-doped forsterite.
The system is operating near 1.25 μm at a 5–10 kHz repetition rate. Chirped-pulse amplification produced 0.86 W (0.75 W) of
average power, or 465 mW (400 mW) after compression at 5 kHz (10 kHz). Nearly bandwidth-limited pulses of duration 135 fs
(shortest) and 150 fs (typical) are available with an energy of 93 μJ and 40 μJ at 5 and 10 kHz, respectively.

A three-laser heterodyne system was used to measure the frequencies of twelve optically pumped laser emissions from 13CH3OH in the far-infrared (FIR) region. These emissions, ranging from 54 to 142 μm, are reported with fractional uncertainties
up to ±2×10-7 along with their polarization relative to the CO2 pump. Using the 9P32 and 10R14 CO2 lines, complete spectroscopic assignments for two laser systems were confirmed.

Tunable narrowband mid-infrared radiation from 3.25 to 4.4 μm is generated by a compact fiber-coupled, difference-frequency-based
spectrosopic source. A 20-mW external cavity diode laser (with a tuning range from 814 to 870 nm) and a 50-mW distributed-Bragg-reflector
diode-laser-seeded ytterbium-doped fiber amplifier operating at 1083 nm are difference-frequency mixed in a multi-grating,
temperature-controlled periodically poled LiNbO3 crystal. A conversion efficiency of 0.44 mW/(W2 cm) (corresponding to a power of ≈3 μW at 3.3 μm) represents the highest conversion efficiency reported for a portable device.
Performance characteristics of such a sensor and its application to spectroscopic detection of CO2, N2O, H2CO, HCl, NO2, and CH4 will be reported in this work.

Applying the combination of a solid-state Ti:Sa laser system and a newly developed wide-aperture, discharge-pumped KrF amplifier,
output pulses with over 9 W average power at 300 Hz have been achieved in a single output beam. The frequency-tripled seed
pulses of the Ti:Sa system – delivering approximately 10 μJ energy at 248 nm – were amplified to over 30 mJ using a 3-pass
off-axis amplification scheme. The optical set-up has been fitted to the amplifier’s parameters, and stored-energy measurements
were carried out with different parameters in order to optimize the operational conditions of the device for the highest average
power.

A laser spectrometer based on difference-frequency generation in periodically poled LiNbO3 (PPLN) has been used to quantify atmospheric formaldehyde with a detection limit of 0.32 parts per billion in a given volume
(ppbV) using specifically developed data-processing techniques. With state-of-the-art fiber-coupled diode-laser pump sources
at 1083 nm and 1561 nm, difference-frequency radiation has been generated in the 3.53-μm (2832-cm-1) spectral region. Formaldehyde in ambient air in the 1- to 10-ppb V range has been detected continuously for nine and five
days at two separate field sites in the Greater Houston area operated by the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission
(TNRCC) and the Houston Regional Monitoring Corporation (HRM). The acquired spectroscopic data are compared with results obtained
by a well-established wet-chemical o-(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzyl) hydroxylamine (PFBHA) technique.
