An adaptive optics (AO) system for solar observations at the Hida Observatory is described, which is composed of commercially available low-cost devices and fully controlled with software in standard personal computers. This AO system operates at a frame rate of more than 250 Hz by virtue of the image processing procedures used. From laboratory experiments, it was confirmed that this AO system was useful for the temporal wavefront-variation of less than 64 Hz. During solar observations at the Hida Observatory the AO system worked well, except for a few cases.     

Effect of acoustooptic Bragg diffraction on the degree of spatial coherence of a light beam

The effect of acoustooptic (AO) Bragg diffraction on the degree of spatial coherence of an optical beam formed as the result of transmission of a Gaussian beam through a diffuser is studied. Experiments performed on the basis of the AO Bragg interaction in a single crystal of TeO₂ confirmed that the optical beam areas characterized by a higher spatial coherence diffract with a considerably higher efficiency than the low-coherence areas. In addition, the character of the speckle-structure distribution of the optical field of the diffracted beam is practically isotropic.     

BOR-FDTD analysis of nonlinear Fiber Bragg grating and distributed Bragg resonator

Recently, nonlinear materials have attracted a great deal of attention because of their importance in designing new devices to meet a need range of optical systems. An intense investigation of the possibility of using these materials for all optical ultrafast applications is achieved by allowing their dielectric characteristics to be varied in such a way that a periodic perturbation of their refractive index along the length of the waveguide will be formed. The Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method, on the other hand, has been proven to be one of the most powerful numerical techniques that are usefully applied to a wide range of optical devices. In this paper, a FDTD technique, developed for nonlinear structures, is used to analyze a nonlinear waveguide and periodic nonlinear structures that exhibit attractive properties that make them suitable for novel devices with wavelength tunable characteristics. More specifically, the Bodies of Revolution (BOR) FDTD numerical simulation method will be used to model the fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) and the direct integration method will be employed to include the effect of Self Phase Modulation (SPM) in this model. The combination of these techniques will result in a model that is used to analyze two different types of periodic nonlinear structure, FBG and Distributed Bragg Resonator (DBR). The nonlinear effect provides the designer an added degree of design flexibility for devices with wavelength tunable characteristics, for example, in the design of tunable filters, WDM systems and optical sensors.

This fabric has the unique capability to provide simultaneously both high switching speeds and high optical isolation, a critical need for advanced low-noise high-speed signal-processing applications.

Surface and interface issues in wide band gap semiconductor electronics

Wide band gap (WGB) materials are the most promising semiconductors for future electronic devices, and are candidates to replace the conventional materials (Si, GaAs, …) that are approaching their physical limits. Among WBG materials, silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) have achieved the largest advancements with respect to their material quality and device processing. Clearly, the devices performances depend on several surface and interface properties, which in turn are often crucially determined by the quality of the available material, as well as by the device processing maturity. In this paper, some surface and interface issues related to SiC and GaN devices processing are reviewed. First, the control of metal/SiC barrier uniformity and surface preparation will be discussed with respect to the performance of Schottky-based devices. Moreover, the impact of high-temperature annealing required for high-voltage Schottky diodes and MOSFETs fabrication, on the surface morphology and device performances will also be briefly presented. In the second part, it will be shown that for GaN the material quality is still the main concern, since dislocations have a severe influence on the current transport and barrier homogeneity of metal/GaN interfaces. Other practical implications of thermal annealing and surface passivation during GaN-based devices fabrication will also be addressed.

199mHg-derivatives of ascorbate oxidase and laccase: selective depletion and blocking of Cu-sites

We report on the^199mHg nuclear quadrupole interaction (NQI) of Hg-derivatives of the blue oxidases ascorbate oxidase (AO) and laccase (LAC). For fully reconstituted enzymes, three different NQIs were observed. The assignment of these NQIs to the type-1, -2, and -3 Cusites is based on type-2 depleted AO, on blocking studies with inactive Hg prior to^199mHg/carrier reconstitution, and on the population ratio observed for fully reconstituted LAC. The NQIs for both enzymes are similar, suggesting similar Cu-sites. The type-2 site is preferentially reconstituted, contrary to expectations. Neither the blocking nor the depletion is as selective as expected.

Optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexed transmission using all‐optical discrete Fourier transform

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) can provide spectrally efficient communication channels because it can utilize carrier orthogonality and various impairment mitigation methods. An optical OFDM signal can be generated electronically to multiplex lower‐rate carriers. In recent advancements, OFDM signals are also shown to be generated and demultiplexed by all‐optical discrete Fourier transform (DFT), overcoming the speed limit of electronics for >Tbps capacity. High‐performance DFT devices, such as arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) or planar lightwave circuit (PLC), are critically required to obtain strong orthogonality for scalable all‐optical OFDM (AO‐OFDM) system implementations. Advanced techniques such as coherent modulation and detection with digital impairment mitigation are also important for long‐reach AO‐OFDM transmissions. More recently, optical superchannel schemes have been introduced utilizing coherent detection for multi‐Tbps AO‐OFDM transmissions. This paper reviews the device and system aspects for the AO‐OFDM technology, including a generalized theoretical model to provide an indepth understanding.     

Plasmon imaging: an efficient TEM-based method for locating noble metal particles dispersed on oxide catalysts at very low densities

We have used transmission electron microscopy to study catalysts comprising nanoparticulate gold dispersed on a highly porous nanoparticulate TiO₂ (anatase) support. The similarity of the morphology of the two phases, and the low number density of gold particles (1 in 65,000) makes this challenging. Diffraction contrast imaging could not differentiate the two phases, since TiO₂ oriented at strong Bragg conditions, produced similar contrast to the Bragg/mass-thickness contrast of the gold. Mass-thickness contrast imaging allowed gold to be differentiated from TiO₂ only in the thinnest regions, where the mass-thickness of TiO₂ was low. Plasmon imaging, using an energy loss of 24 eV and an energy window width of 5 eV, was very effective at locating gold. Both the TiO₂ and impregnating resin produced a strong plasmon signal, while the much weaker signal from the gold made it appear dark. This permitted the gold particles to be readily located, irrespective of whether they were located in the thin or thick regions of the TiO₂ support.     

Broadband fiber Bragg gratings for dispersion management

This paper provides an overview and technology update of a dispersion management component made from chirped fiber Bragg gratings. The history and technology of fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) have been extensively covered in several excellent review articles, [1-6] book chapters, [7] and books. [8,9] We give a brief overview of fiber Bragg grating technology in this section and then focus on the details concerned with construction and performance of dispersion management devices in optical communications systems with a single broadband long-length grating used in reflection. Sampled chirped grating are sometimes referred to as broadband devices, but they actually have a narrow bandwidth of operation that is periodically repeated across a given spectral range. Although these periodic devices have shown promise as dispersion management devices in communications systems, they will not be discussed in this paper.
