样品温度对纳秒激光诱导Cu等离子体特征参数的影响

为了研究样品温度对激光诱导击穿Cu等离子体特征参数的影响,以黄铜为研究对象,在优化的实验条件下采用波长为532 nm的Nd∶YAG纳秒脉冲激光诱导激发不同温度下的块状黄铜,测量了Cu等离子体的特征谱线强度和信噪比;同时在局部热平衡条件下利用Boltzmann斜线法和Stark展宽法分析计算了不同的样品温度条件下等离子体电子温度和电子密度。实验结果表明,在激光功率为60 mW时,随着样品温度的升高,Cu的特征谱线强度和信噪比逐渐增加,样品温度为130 ℃时达到最大值,然后趋于饱和。计算表明,黄铜样品中Cu元素Cu Ⅰ 329.05 nm,Cu Ⅰ 427.51 nm,Cu Ⅰ 458.71 nm,Cu Ⅰ 510.55 nm,Cu Ⅰ 515.32 nm,Cu Ⅰ 521.82 nm, Cu Ⅰ 529.25 nm,Cu Ⅰ 578.21 nm八条谱线在130℃的相对强度相较于室温（18 ℃）下分别提高了11.55倍、4.53倍、4.72倍,3.31倍、4.47倍、4.60倍、4.25倍、4.55倍,光谱信噪比分别增大了1.35倍,2.29倍、1.76倍、2.50倍、2.45倍、2.28倍、2.50倍,2.53倍。分析认为,升高样品温度会增大样品的烧蚀质量,相对于温度较低状态增加了等离子体中样品粒子浓度,进而提高等离子体发射光谱强度。所以,适当升高样品温度能够提高谱线强度和信噪比,从而增强LIBS技术检测分析光谱微弱信号的测量精度,改善痕量元素的检测灵敏度。同时研究了改变样品温度时等离子体电子温度和电子密度的变化趋势。计算表明,当样品温度从室温上升到130 ℃的过程中,等离子体的电子温度由4 723 K上升到7 121 K时基本不再变化。这种变化规律与发射谱线强度和信噪比变化趋势一致。分析认为,这主要是由于在升高样品温度的初始阶段,激光烧蚀量增大,等离子体内能增大,从而导致等离子体电子温度升高。当激光烧蚀样品的量达到一定值后不再变化,激光能量被激发溅射出来的样品蒸发物以及尘粒的吸收、散射和反射,导致激光能量密度降低,电子温度趋于饱和,达到某种动态平衡。选用一条Cu原子谱线（324.75 nm）的Stark展宽系数计算激光等离子体的电子密度,同时研究改变样品温度时等离子电子密度的变化趋势,计算表明在样品温度为130 ℃时,Cu Ⅰ 324.75 nm对应的等离子电子密度相较于室温（18 ℃）条件下增大了1.74×1017 cm-3。该变化趋势与电子温度的变化趋势一致。适当升高样品温度使得电子密度增大,从而提高电子和原子的碰撞几率,激发更多的原子,这是增强光谱谱线强度的原因之一。由此可见,升高样品温度是一种便捷的提高LIBS检测灵敏度的有效手段。

Guided-Wave Two-Dimensional Acousto-Optic Scanner Using Proton-Exchanged Lithium Niobate Waveguide

Two-dimensional scanning of a 0.6328 mum guided-light beam has been realized using noncolinear acousto-optic (AO) coplanar Bragg diffraction together with colinear AO guided-mode to substrate radiation-mode conversion in a Z-cut Xpropagation LiNbO3 proton-exchanged (PE) waveguide. The two surface acoustic (SAW) waves utilized are at the center frequencies of 500 and 200 MHz, propagating in the Y and X axes, respectively. Two-dimensional scanning of approximately 720 resolvable light beam spots, namely, 18 40 (horizontal vertical) scanning, has been demonstrated using a light beam of 1.0 mm aperture. The total number of resolvable beam spots can be greatly increased from 720 by simply utilizing SAW transducers of larger bandwidth and a light beam of greater aperture. It should also be possible to significantly increase the diffraction efficiency from 3 % by optimizing the parameters of the PE waveguide and the SAWs.     

Hybrid Wavelength and Code Division Multiple Access in Optical Networks

A review of schemes for multiple access in fiber optic networks shows that a hybrid of wavelength and code division multiple access (WCDMA) combines the best features of both. In particular, the hybrid scheme retains the large information carrying capacity of wavelength division multiple access (WDMA) and flexibility of code division multiple access (CDMA). In this paper WDMA, optical CDMA (OCDMA), and WCDMA networks are discussed. In OCDMA networks, concept of incoherent and coherent coding including inverse decoding and matched filter is introduced. The delay performance of both WDMA and WCDMA networks, under the simple suboptimum access protocols based on cyclic search, is computed. It has been shown quantitatively that tuning delay significantly affects the delay performance of both WDMA and WCDMA networks. Futhermore, delay performance of WCDMA networks is always better than the WDMA networks for the same tuning delay, load, and number of users.     

Effect ofγ-radiation on the spectral luminescence characteristics of impure cadmium tungstate crystals

Results of a study of the effect of γ-radiation on the spectral luminescence properties of cadmium tungstate crystals doped with silver, bismuth, and molybdenum cations are presented. Spectral characteristics of the nondnnnoped crystals are briefly described. Absorption and photo and X-ray luminescence spectra of the crystals taken before and after exposure to γ-radiation (5.5·10⁴ Gy) are compared. It is found that the spectral characteristics of the crystals doped with silver, bismuth, and molybdenum cations do not change markedly after the exposure. The relation between the type of impurity-induced defects, individual characteristics of the impurity cations, and the character of the effect of γ-radiation on the spectral luminescence properties of impure crystals is analyzed (preliminarily).

Resonance scattering of canonical elastic shells in absorbing fluid medium

Resonance scattering of elastic spherical shell and cylindrical shell while the surrounding fluid medium has absorption is studied. The normal mode solution derived using exact elastic theory and the separation of variables is still applicable. However, the scattering form function has to be modified for the absorbing medium, otherwise the unreasonable result would be obtained. The backscattering form function in the absorbing medium is redefined, and the form function of elastic spherical and cylindrical shell with vacuum or solid matter filled is calculated in various absorption conditions. The results show that the absorption of surrounding fluid leads to notable attenuation of the coincidence resonances in the mid-frequency, but it has a little influence on the low-frequency resonance scattering induced by the filler inside the shell.     

Single-beam self-referenced phase-sensitive surface plasmon resonance sensor with high detection resolution

A versatile and low-cost single-beam self-referenced phase-sensitive surface plasmon resonance(SPR)sensing system with ultra-high resolution performance is presented.The system exhibits a root-mean-square phase fluctuation of ±0.0028.over a period of 45 min.i.e.a resolution of±5.2×10-9 refractive index units.The enhanced performance has been achieved through the incorporation of three design elements:a true single-beam configuration enabling complete self-referencing so that only the phase change associated with SPR gets detected,a differential measurement scheme to eliminate spurious signals not related to the sensor response,and the elimination of retardation drifts by incorporating temperature stabilization in the liquid crystal phase modulato .Our design should bring the detection sensitivity of non-labeling SPR biosensing closer to that achievable by conventional fluorescence-based techniques.     

Influences of SiO2 protective layers and annealing on the laser-induced damage threshold of Ta2O5 films

Ta2O5 films are prepared on BK7 substrates with conventional electron beam evaporation deposition.The effects of SiO2 protective layers and annealing on the laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) of the films are investigated.The results show that SiO2 protective layers exert little influence on the electric field intensity(EFI)distribution,microstructure and microdefect density but increase the absorption slightly.Annealing iS effective on decreasing the microdefect density and the absorption of the films.Both SiO2 protective layers and annealing are beneficial to the damage resistance of the films and the latter is more effective to improve the LIDT.Moreover,the maximal LIDT of Ta2O5 films is achieved by the combination of SiO2 protective layers and annealing.     

A stereo matching algorithm using multi-peak candidate matches and geometric constraints

Gray cross correlation matching technique is adopted to extract candidate matches with gray cross correla- tion coefficients less than some certain range of maximal correlation coefficient called multi-peak candidate matches. Multi-peak candidates are extracted corresponding to three closest feature points at first. The corresponding multi-peak candidate matches are used to construct the model polygon. Correspondence is determined based on the local geometric relations between the three feature points and the multi-peak candidates. The disparity test and the global consistency checkout are applied to eliminate the remaining ambiguous matches that are not removed by the local geometric relational test. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is feasible and accurate.     

Fiber Modal Index Measurements Based on Fiber Gratings

A novel method based on fiber gratings for measuring the effective indices of fiber modes is proposed. The effective index difference between the core mode and a cladding mode was obtained by analyzing the interference fringe of a pair of cascaded long-period fiber gratings. In order to extract the core mode index from the measured index difference, an index matching oil immersion method is proposed. By analyzing the interaction between the cladding mode and the oil applied on the cladding surface, the mode order and the effective index of the involved cladding mode might be calculated. Experimental results about the interference fringe shifts induced by the oil index and the oil-applied length are also presented.     

Optical Pulse Compression Schemes That Use Nonlinear Bragg Gratings

Nonlinear optical pulse compression of picosecond pulses typically requires long lengths of optical fiber and multiple components. Periodic structures, such as fiber Bragg gratings, are highly dispersive at wavelengths outside of the photonic bandgap. This implies that such gratings can be used as very short all-fiber compressors. In this paper a number of such compression schemes are reviewed involving uniform and nonuniform fiber Bragg gratings, relying on both soliton and nonsoliton compression principles. Experimental results supporting the corresponding underlying theory are also presented. Finally, an extension of one of the compression schemes is shown, which allows the generation of adjustable high-repetition rate soliton trains.
