用于原子干涉测量的Raman光系统设计与实验

研究了基于光学锁相环技术的Raman光系统,系统包含参考光、主激光和从激光三束激光,其中参考光采用调制转移光谱稳频后用做频率基准,主激光相对于参考光频差1 GHz实现相对于激发态远红失谐以避免激光与原子的直接作用,从激光相对于主激光频差6.8 GHz用于激发87Rb原子基态超精细能级之间的跃迁,采用两套光学锁相环分别实现主、从激光的锁频锁相。测量结果表明,两套光学锁相环的相位噪声在100 Hz～1 MHz频段分别低于-70 dBc/Hz和-65 dBc/Hz,因此相位噪声对单次原子干涉重力测量的影响为5.3×10~(-7)。采用两台锥形放大器分别对主、从激光进行功率放大以保证主、从激光功率比严格为1∶2,采用光纤传输与空间光传输相结合的设计实现主、从激光的合束、偏振统一及频率调制,最终获得的Raman光总功率为180 mW。持续功率测量结果显示,在没有额外增加功率稳定元件的条件下Raman光的总功率最大起伏小于5%,满足原子干涉测量实验需求。

Soliton experiments in stimulated Raman scattering

Experimental observations of solitons in stimulated Raman scattering are reported. Soliton formation resulted from the introduction of a phase shift in the incident Stokes beam as predicted by theory. Pulse sharpening and retardation on propagation in the Raman medium have been observed along with amplitude diminution. The first two features were predicted and the third was not. Spontaneous soliton formation has been observed in the absense of any amplitude modulation or apparent phase shift in the optical fields, indicating that additional sets of initial conditions may result in soliton formation.Work performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy.     

Lineshape analysis of stimulated Raman spectra of the near‐nozzle region of free jet expansions

An anomalous lineshape of stimulated Raman spectra obtained from the region very close to the nozzle of supersonic pulsed expansions of nitrogen is presented. High‐resolution Raman spectra of the Q branch of the fundamental vibration mode of N₂ have been recorded from two different nitrogen expansions at T₀ = 295 K and P₀ = 1.5–3.5 bar, the lasers crossing the jet axis in the range z/D = 0.25–1.25, where D is the effective nozzle diameter. The combination of Doppler shifts and strong gradients of density and temperature in the near‐nozzle region yield an inhomogeneous broadening and a double peak structure of the recorded Raman line profiles. The comparison of the experimental results with the simulation of the Raman spectrum from this region provides valuable information about the near‐nozzle flow field. The lineshape described here is different from another reported previously in the literature, which is based on a depletion of the density of free molecules on the axis due to condensation.

Dipole‐like backscatter stimulated Raman scattering for in vivo imaging

Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) scanning microscopy has the potential to enable label‐free in vivo imaging for research and clinical medicine. Volume SRS from focus occurs in the forward scattered direction. Therefore, multiple scattering events are required to direct the light out of the tissue, reducing imaging depth and resolution. Here, a method called Stokes interference SRS (SISRS) is introduced that operates by the addition to the standard pump and stimulated emission probe beams a third beam called the donut beam. The donut is close in wavelength to the probe beam and, after passage through a π phase plate, forms an annular beam in the focal plane with bright nodes above and below focus. The donut beats with the probe beam, and when they destructively interfere with each other, the microscope's 3‐D stimulated emission focal spot is reduced to subwavelength dimensions. A subwavelength focal volume emits a dipole pattern of SRS with forward and backscatter lobes, enabling high‐resolution single‐backscatter imaging from deep within tissues. The reduction of the focal volume also increases the resolution of the scanning image creating imaging beyond the diffraction limit. SISRS imaging may provide in vivo label‐free Raman images comparable with that achieved in stained in vitro tissues in all planes of section. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Effect of polarization on population transfer in H2 by stimulated Raman transition with partially overlapping laser pulses

Polarization effects on population transfer by stimulated Raman transition using overlapping time dependent pump and Stokes laser pulses from the ground X ¹Σ _g ^/+ (v _g=0, J _g=1) level of H₂ to the final X ¹Σ _g ^/+ (v _f=1, J _f=1) level via the intermediate B ¹Σ _u ^/+ (v _i=14, J _i=0,2), C ¹Π _u ^/+ (v _i=3, J _i=2) and C ¹Π _u ^/− (v _i=3, J _i=1) levels have been theoretically investigated by applying the density matrix formalism. We have studied in detail the dependence of the population transfer on time delay between two pulses for the cases of on-resonance excitations considering linear parallel and same-sense circular polarizations of the fields. The pump and Stokes fields are taken as having Gaussian pulse shapes with peak intensities I _P ^/0 (I _S ^/0 )=2 × 10⁶ and 1 × 10⁷ W/cm². Density matrix equations have been solved for each value of the magnetic quantum number M _g(0, ±1) of the initial ground level taking into account the M _g dependence of the Rabi frequencies. M _g — averaged population transfer to the final level has also been calculated. For resonance excitations to the B(14, 0) or C(3, 1) levels, appreciable population transfer is achieved for intuitive pulse order for some particular values of M _g and M _i (magnetic quantum number of the resonant intermediate level) depending on the nature of polarizations. The calculated values of M _g — averaged population transfer for the two cases of polarizations show that for on-resonance excitation to the B(14, 0) or the C(3, 1) level, linear parallel polarization of the laser fields yield more transfer efficiency whereas for resonance excitation to the B(14, 2) level, larger population transfer results from the same-sense circular polarizations. For resonance excitation to the C(3, 2) level, M _g — averaged population is found to be almost polarization independent. The calculations for the six-level H₂ system reveal some interesting features of polarization effects on the population transfer efficiency.
