Raman properties embeddedof GaSb nanoparticlesin SiO2 films

The Raman shifts of nanocrystalline GaSb excited by an Ar^ ion laser at wavelengths 514.5, 496.5, 488.0, 476.5,and 457.9nm are studied by an SPEX-1403 laser Raman spectrometer respectively, and they are explained by phonon confinement, tensile stress, resonant Raman scattering and quantum size effects. The Stokes and anti-Stokes Raman spectra of GaSb nanocrystals strongly support the Raman feature of GaSb nanocrystals. The calculated optical spectra compare well with experimental data on Raman scattering GaSb nanocrystals.

Continuous-wave rotational Raman laser in H(2)

A diode-pumped, far-off-resonance cw Raman laser in H(2) with rotational Stokes emission is reported for the first time to our knowledge. The Raman laser can produce single-wavelength emission at either 830 nm (rotational Stokes) or 1180 nm (vibrational Stokes) depending on the frequency tuning of the pump laser. The mirrors for the rotational cw Raman laser are easier to produce; the laser also exhibits a wider continuous tuning range and is less sensitive to thermal effects than the previously studied vibrational Raman laser [Opt. Lett. 26, 426 (2001) and references therein].     

Polarized raman spectroscopy on isolated single-wall carbon nanotubes

Polarized micro-Raman spectroscopy has been performed on spatially separated single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in the form of individual nanotubes or thin ropes of only a few SWNTs. Different from bulk samples, the Raman spectra are composed of well-resolved peaks which allow a direct comparison of experimental data with theoretical calculations. Orientation-dependent measurements reveal maximum intensity of all Raman modes when the nanotubes are aligned parallel to the polarization of the incident laser light. The angular dependences clearly deviate from the selection rules predicted by theoretical studies. These differences are attributed to depolarization effects caused by the strongly anisotropic geometry of the nanotubes and to electronic resonance effects for excitation at 633 nm.

Relations are obtained for the threshold and optimum (for induced Raman scattering) values of various parameters.

双波长LD模块的拉曼光谱测试系统

荧光干扰是拉曼光谱检测过程中常见的干扰因素之一,而移频激发法是一种有效的克服荧光干扰的检测手段。移频激发法利用两个波长相近的激光分别激发被测物质,并将获得的拉曼光谱进行差谱。由于两次激发的荧光背景相同,而拉曼特征峰会产生平移,因此可有效地消除荧光背景的干扰,进而利用一定的算法还原拉曼特征峰。移频激发法的关键在于两个激发光波长的稳定性,不稳定的波长差将严重影响对拉曼特征峰的还原效果。本文研制了一种拉曼光谱测试系统,该系统的双波长LD模块能够产生两个波长稳定的激发光(分别为784.7和785.8 nm),满足移频激发法的测试要求。影响激发光波长稳定性的因素主要是光功率和温度,本系统中对这两个因素均进行了实时的监控,以保证激发光波长的稳定。系统的硬件部分主要包括ARM主控板、双波长LD模块及其驱动电路、温度控制板、数字光开关、光谱检测光路和光纤探头(两个高功率的蝶形封装激光器);软件部分可自动获取被测物质的拉曼光谱图,并对其进行后续的处理。在稳定性测试实验中,对系统驱动电源电流和激光器温度的稳定性均进行了测试。测试结果显示,电流波动范围小于0.01 mA、温度变化范围小于0.004 ℃,能够有效地保证激发光波长的稳定性。最后,对某品牌花生油进行了拉曼光谱检测,并对检测结果进行了处理,获得了良好的效果。
