烟雾环境下的偏振差成像方法

基于激光主动成像的烟雾环境下的目标探测具有重要研究意义,有效抑制光的散射作用是提高烟雾环境下成像质量的关键。根据光的偏振理论,仿真分析了光子单次散射的偏振特性与散射角的变化关系,并利用蒙特卡罗方法模拟了光在烟雾环境中传输的偏振特性,提出了利用偏振差法来抑制光散射作用,最后进行了简单的成像实验。结果表明,光在烟雾中传输时散射光主要由小角度散射光构成,仍然保留了初始激光的部分偏振特性,相比于直接灰度成像,偏振差法能够有效滤除小角度散射光的影响,增强成像目标的细节信息和图像的对比度。

利用偏振干涉成像光谱仪进行偏振探测的新方法

以往对干涉成像光谱仪的研究通常仅限于对光的干涉特性的利用,即由目标干涉图得到其光谱图,而忽略了其丰富的偏振信息.为了在利用光的干涉特性的同时还充分利用光的偏振特性,在原有偏振干涉成像光谱仪的基础上,结合现有的干涉成像光谱技术与偏振探测原理,提出了一种利用现有偏振干涉成像光谱仪获取探测目标的偏振参数(偏振度、偏振方位角等)的新方法,并对其精度误差进行了理论分析,证明了其不但具有较高的稳定性而且具有极高的测量精度.因此,若把以往的偏振干涉成像光谱仪看作是照相机与光谱仪功能的结合,则现在可以将之理解为成像仪、光 关键词： 偏振探测 偏振干涉成像光谱仪 Stokes参量 Savart偏光镜     

980 nm大功率垂直腔面发射激光器偏振特性

大功率垂直腔面发射激光器单管器件出光口径大、横向模式多。随着注入电流和工作温度的改变出射光偏振态在两个正交偏振基态上转换。为分析输出光偏振特性,采用500μm出光口径980nm底发射器件,通过控制器件热沉温度,利用偏振分光镜分离正交偏振基态为透射波和反射波,半导体综合参数测试仪测量其功率、中心波长等参量。分析得出:两个偏振态的光功率温度特性与未加偏振分光镜时的总输出光的温度特性基本一致,中心波长差随温度升高缓慢增加。在温度低于328K时,随着注入电流的增大,反射波首先达到阈值,形成激射。但透射光波形成激射后其斜效率大于反射波。因此在达到某个电流后两个偏振态的功率变化曲线出现交替。当温度升高到328K以上时两个偏振态的功率曲线却没有明显的交替。根据对大尺寸VCSEL器件偏振特性的研究,提出通过外腔选频的方法来控制偏振的方案,分析计算后得出外腔腔长大约为0.45mm。

线双折射传感光栅中的传输光偏振态分析

 深入研究了线双折射光栅中透射光偏振特性的演变过程。采用耦合模理论和琼斯矩阵分析了传输距离、双折射大小、入射起偏态等因素对透射光偏振特性的影响,并利用邦加球中描绘了偏振态的演变趋势。结果表明：光栅中的线双折射和传输距离会改变传输光的偏振态,偏振态的波长相关曲线会随传输距离和线双折射的增大而不断扩展,入射起偏态的不同并不改变偏振态的拓展趋势。同时,第一斯托克斯参量与偏振相关损耗在峰值波长点上存在对应关系,两者幅值均与线双折射呈单调递增关系,可应用于传感测量。

Dual-frequency optical pumping for spin-polarizing a lithium atomic beam

A lithium-6 atomic beam is spin-polarized by means of optical pumping with a single-mode dye laser operating on the resonance transition. Simultaneous pumping of both hyperfine substates is achieved by frequency-splitting the laser light with an acousto-optic modulator. A polarization dependent signal, obtained by probing the optical activity of the beam with linearly polarized light, is utilized in a microprocessor-controlled laser stabilization scheme. The polarization is analyzed with a sextupole magnet and its overall value is 0.70 for an intensity of 1×10¹⁴ atms s⁻¹. By reversing the sense of circular polarization of the pumping light the atomic beam polarization is easily reversed in direction.     

Optical pumping nuclear magnetic resonance system rotating in a plane parallel to the quantization axis

A model of an optical pumping nuclear magnetic resonance system rotating in a plane parallel to the quantization axis is presented. Different coordinate frames for nuclear spin polarization vector are introduced, and theoretical calculation is conducted to analyze this model. We demonstrate that when the optical pumping nuclear magnetic resonance system rotates in a plane parallel to the quantization axis, it will maintain a steady state with respect to the quantization axis which is independent of rotational speed and direction.     

170 nm nuclear magnetic resonance imaging using magnetic resonance force microscopy

We demonstrate one-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance imaging of the semiconductor GaAs with 170 nm slice separation and resolve two regions of reduced nuclear spin polarization density separated by only 500 nm. This was achieved by force detection of the magnetic resonance, magnetic resonance force microscopy (MRFM), in combination with optical pumping to increase the nuclear spin polarization. Optical pumping of the GaAs created spin polarization up to 12 times larger than the thermal nuclear spin polarization at 5K and 4T. The experiment was sensitive to sample volumes of 50 microm(3) containing approximately 4 x 10(11)71 Ga/Hz. These results demonstrate the ability of force-detected magnetic resonance to apply magnetic resonance imaging to semiconductor devices and other nanostructures.     

Nuclear magnetic resonance of laser-polarized noble gases in molecules,materials, and organisms

The sensitivity of conventional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques is fundamentally limited by the ordinarily low spin polarization achievable in even the strongest NMR magnets. However, by transferring angular momentum from laser light to electronic and nuclear spins, optical pumping methods can increase the nuclear spin polarization of noble gases by several orders of magnitude, thereby greatly enhancing their NMR sensitivity. This review describes the principles and magnetic resonance applications of laser-polarized noble gases. The enormous sensitivity enhancement afforded by optical pumping can be exploited to permit a variety of novel NMR experiments across numerous disciplines. Many such experiments are reviewed, including the void-space imaging of organisms and materials, NMR and MRI of living tissues, probing structure and dynamics of molecules in solution and on surfaces, NMR sensitivity enhancement via polarization transfer, and low-field NMR and MRI.     

Frequency-selective laser optical pumping and spin exchange of cesium with129Xe and131Xe in a high magnetic field

We report the experimental results of frequency-selective laser optical pumping and spin exchange of Cs with¹²⁹Xe and¹³¹Xe in a high magnetic field of 11.74 T. Our results show that hyperpolarized¹²⁹Xe and¹³¹Xe nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals exhibit alternating phases when the laser frequency for pumping the cesium atoms is changed, which is explained on the basis of the high-field optical pumping of Cs. We obtain about 3% polarization of the¹²⁹Xe. The electron-spin polarization of the Cs atoms has been measured to be about 22% with a simple NMR method.     

Radiation-detected optical pumping in solids

Radiation-detected optical pumping in solids has been developed to investigate the structure of unstable nuclei. Appreciable nuclear polarization of implanted or doped unstable-nuclei in a host crystal is achieved with the optical pumping in solids. The nuclear polarization achieved is enhanced/reduced by applying a radio-frequency magnetic field together with the optical pumping, radiation-detected magnetic resonance being thus observed to get information on electromagnetic properties of unstable nuclei. Two schemes have been successfully developed for the optical pumping of unstable nuclei in solids. One is to directly pump the atoms by the excitation from the ground state to a broad absorption band in visible and UV regions which shows a large magnetic circular dichroism. This scheme is applicable to many rare-earth atoms in alkaline-earth fluoride host. The other scheme is to pump the electrons in the conduction band of direct-type semiconductor and thus indirectly polarize the nuclei in the host material via a hyperfine interaction between the nuclei and the polarized conduction electrons. This scheme can be especially applied to the III to VI families of atoms in direct-type semiconductors. Principle of the methods, on-line experimental system, and a few examples of the results obtained so far are presented and discussed.     

Push-pull optical pumping of pure superposition states

A new optical pumping method, "push-pull pumping," can produce very nearly pure, coherent superposition states between the initial and the final sublevels of the important field-independent 0-0 clock resonance of alkali-metal atoms. The key requirement for push-pull pumping is the use of D1 resonant light which alternates between left and right circular polarization at the Bohr frequency of the state. The new pumping method works for a wide range of conditions, including atomic beams with almost no collisions, and atoms in buffer gases with pressures of many atmospheres.     

Imaging of laser-polarized solid xenon

The enhanced spin polarization produced by optical pumping of gaseous rubidium/xenon samples has made possible a number of recent experiments in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Here we report MRI of laser-polarized xenon in the solid phase at low temperature. Due to the high xenon density in the solid phase and the enhanced spin polarization, it is possible to achieve high intensity and spatial resolution of the image. Signals were observed from xenon films solidified onto the glass container walls and not from an enclosed chili pepper.     

Dressed-atom model for optical pumping with modulated light

The interaction of an atomic system with the light modulated at the ground-state Zeeman frequency is analysed by the dressed atom method. The analogy between the magnetic resonance and optical pumping with modulated light is emphasized. The dependence of the effects expected in light absorption on the geometry of the experimental arrangement and light polarization is given.
