Pulse shaper in a loop: demonstration of cascadable ultrafast all-optical code translation

We experimentally demonstrate repetitive M-ary spectral phase pulse shaping by placing a programmable pulse shaper driven by a 10-GHz source in a closed loop. This permits generation of encoded and decoded signals in the same apparatus by forming a closed loop to circulate a part of the output back into the pulse shaper. As a result, a series of M - 1 distinct encoded waveforms is sequentially generated, followed by generation of a properly decoded pulse.     

Phase-dependent inversionless gain in a four-level atomic system with a closed interaction loop

A four-level atomic system with a closed interaction loop connected by two coherent driving fields and a microwave field is investigated. The results show that inversionless gain can be achieved on a higher frequency transition outside the closed interaction loop, and the gain behaviour can be modulated by the phase of the closed loop as well as the amplitude of the microwave field. The phase sensitivity property in such a scheme is similar to that in an analogous configuration with spontaneously generated coherence, but it is beyond the rigorous condition of near-degenerate levels with non-orthogonal dipole moments. Therefore this scheme is much more convenient in experimental realization.     

Solubility and immiscibility behavior in ternary hydrothermal systems with critical phenomena in saturated solutions

Abstract

Liquid-liquid immiscibility occurs widely in water-salt systems as stable and metastable equilibria at sub- and supercritical conditions. The phase behavior of ternary mixtures complicated by metastable immiscibility and by a transition of the metastable immiscibility regions into the stable equilibria is discussed using the experimental data on water-salt systems and theoretically derived complete phase diagrams.     

Geometric phase induced by a cyclically evolving squeezed vacuum reservoir

We propose a new way to generate an observable geometric phase by means of a completely incoherent phenomenon. We show how to imprint a geometric phase to a system by adiabatically manipulating the environment with which it interacts. As a specific scheme, we analyze a multilevel atom interacting with a broadband squeezed vacuum bosonic bath. As the squeezing parameters are smoothly changed in time along a closed loop, the ground state of the system acquires a geometric phase. We also propose a scheme to measure such a geometric phase by means of a suitable polarization detection.     

Quantum feedback control for deterministic entangled photon generation

We present quantum feedback control for deterministic entanglement generation at the single-photon level. The protocol of controlling both total photon number and phase difference is based on the cascade structure of cavities placed in an optical closed loop, quantum nondemolition measurement with cross-Kerr interactions, and Lyapunov stability for feedback design.     

Phase Control of Spontaneous Emission of a Three-Level Atom in Two Bichromatic Fields

We use the relative phase difference of two bichromatic fields of equal frequency differences for the coherent control of spontaneous emission of a three-level atom in the A configuration, diffects such as selective and total cancellation of fluorescence decay are obtained simply by varying the phase difference. The phese dependence of fluorescence spectra is attributed to the fact that the four different field components induce the transitions in a closed loop configuratiou.     

Synchronization of chaos in unidirectionally and bidirectionally coupled multiple time delay laser diodes with electro-optical feedback

We report on chaos synchronization in both unidirectionally and bidirectionally coupled multiple time delay laser diodes with electro-optical feedback. We derive existence and sufficient stability conditions for the synchronization regimes. We calculate the Lyapunov exponents, information dimension, and Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy for a single and double delay time lasers to demonstrate that multiple time delay laser system can offer higher complexity than a single time delay laser. We demonstrate that in coupled multiple time delay lasers additional feedback(s) can play a stabilizing role. We compare the synchronization quality for closed loop and open loop receiver laser configurations and find better synchronization quality for partially open loop receiver (when the receiver laser has only one feedback loop), than the open loop receiver configuration (when the receiver contains no feedback loops). We also study the effect of the feedback phase on the correlation coefficient between the interacting laser systems. Analytical results are fully supported by numerical simulations.     

Self-stabilizing additive-pulse mode-locking due to thermo-optical non-linearity in an optical fiber

16 , 1671 (1991)] described a Nd:YLF APM laser which somehow automatically adjusted the relative resonator phase. We reproduce this behavior and analyse its origin. Thermal effects due to the light power guided in the fiber affect the effective fiber length, which in turn influences the phase and thus the power level; hence a closed servo loop results. We demonstrate this explanation to be correct in quantitative terms. Consequences arise for other systems involving fiber-optic loops or interferometers.

Phase‐Dependent Quantum Correlation in a Cavity‐Atom System

A scheme to manipulate quantum correlation between output lights of a cavity‐atom system by phase control is proposed. A driving‐field phase is introduced which has a similar value with that of building up quantum correlation in a Hanbury–Brown–Twiss setup. A closed‐loop phase is formed to improve quantum coherence by phase‐dependent electromagnetically induced transparency. The closed‐loop phase has been utilized to realize quantum correlation and even quantum entanglement in the atomic system of previous work. With these two phases, a steady and maximum quantum correlation has been obtained in the scheme here. Moreover, the maximum quantum correlation is free to decoherence of this cavity‐atom system. The study on field‐intensity correlation (quantum correlation) has potential applications on correlated imaging, image encryption transmission, and the improvement of noise resistance in a quantum network.     

Coherent beam combination of two slab laser amplifiers based on stochastic parallel gradient descent algorithm

Coherent beam combination(CBC) of laser arrays is an efficient way to scale brightness.We demonstrate CBC of two slab laser amplifiers based on active phase locking.Instead of the complex phase detection system,intensity detection is used and the feedback control signal is calculated based on the stochastic parallel gradient descent(SPGD) algorithm.The experimental investigation on a 101.5-W CBC of two slab amplifiers shows that the entire system in a closed loop performs well for long-time observation.A combination efficiency of nearly 81% is realized.The slab amplifier laser arrays are the coherent beams efficiently combined by active phase locking based on the SPGD.     

Simultaneous spectrum and coherent combining by active phasing dual two-tone all-fiber MOPA chains

We present a new approach for simultaneous spectral and coherent combining in a master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) configuration with active phasing. Spectrally combined single-frequency seed lasers are employed as a master oscillator for the all-fiber power amplifier chain, which provides robust performance suppressing of the stimulated Brillouin scattering effect, while coherent combining of spectrally combined amplifiers with active phase control provides stable in-phase combining, despite the strong phase fluctuation. In experiments, two spectrally combined seed MOPA chains are coherently combined with a total output power of 390 W. The power of the main lobe in the closed loop is two times of that value in the open loop, and visibility of more than 75% of the long-exposure interference pattern at the receiving plane is obtained.

Open Topological Strings and Integrable Hierarchies: Remodeling the A-Model

We set up, purely in A-model terms, a novel formalism for the global solution of the open and closed topological A-model on toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. The starting point is to build on recent progress in the mathematical theory of open Gromov-Witten invariants of orbifolds; we interpret the localization formulae as relating D-brane amplitudes to closed string amplitudes perturbed with twisted masses through an analogue of the “loop insertion operator” of matrix models. We first generalize this form of open/closed string duality to general toric backgrounds in all chambers of the stringy Kähler moduli space; secondly, we display a neat connection of the (gauged) closed string side to tau functions of 1+1 Hamiltonian integrable hierarchies, and exploit it to provide an effective computation of open string amplitudes. In doing so, we also provide a systematic treatment of the change of flat open moduli induced by a phase transition in the closed moduli space. We test our proposal in detail by providing an extensive number of checks. We also use our formalism to give a localization-based derivation of the Hori-Vafa spectral curves as coming from a resummation of A-model disc instantons.     

Colloidal aggregation in a nematic liquid crystal: topological arrest of particles by a single-stroke disclination line

We numerically study many-body interactions among colloidal particles suspended in a nematic liquid crystal, using a fluid particle dynamics method, which properly incorporates dynamical coupling among particles, nematic orientation, and flow field. Based on simulation results, we propose a new type of interparticle interaction in addition to well-known quadrupolar interaction for particles accompanying Saturn-ring defects. This interaction is mediated by the defect of the nematic phase: upon nematic ordering, a closed disclination loop binds more than two particles to form a sheetlike dynamically arrested structure. The interaction depends upon the topology of a disclination loop binding particles, which is determined by aggregation history.     

Adaptive control of the spatial position of white light filaments in an aqueous solution

We demonstrate control over the spatial coordinates (position and extent) of white light filaments (supercontinuum generation) in an aqueous solution. These are the first experiments to achieve control of filament position through the manipulation of the spectral phase of an ultra-fast (50 fs) 800 nm excitation laser pulse. A closed feedback loop employing a spatial light modulator and a genetic algorithm was used to manipulate the spectral phase of the pulses to achieve a specified filament position and length.     

The NaNO3–KNO3 phase diagram

Many papers have been published in relation to the NaNO₃–KNO₃ phase diagram determination in the last 160 years. These papers fall in two categories: (1) the solid–liquid equilibrium is assumed to be of the eutectic type, and (2) the solid–liquid equilibrium is considered as a loop with a minimum. The discordance between the two views is related to the slow transition kinetics that complicate the assessment of thermal ‘fluctuations’, and also to the appearance of a metastable form of potassium nitrate. The main result of this paper is the experimental phase diagram constructed with new experimental data so that we can assure that the second option is correct. This phase diagram is defined by a eutectoid invariant, an asymmetric immiscibility gap and a continuous solid solution with a minimum of melting point. Additionally, the ABθ model simulates correctly the experimental piece of evidence.     

Adaptive wave-front correction by means of all-optical feedback interferometry

A novel adaptive wave-front correction system based on an all-optical feedback interferometer is described. In this system the two-dimensional output fringe intensity from a Mach-Zehnder interferometer with large radial shear is optically fed back to an optically addressed phase-only liquid-crystal spatial light modulator. Consequently, without a separate aberration-free reference wave, the modulator phase approximates the conjugate of the interferometer phase that is directly related to the phase of the input aberrated wave front, so this system is applicable in adaptive optics. We successfully achieved real-time correction of aberrated wave fronts: A diffraction pattern that was seriously distorted because of aberrations was transformed into a diffraction-limited spot immediately after the feedback loop was closed.
