Sharper focal spot below λ/4 of azimuthally polarized illumination phase-encoded by the binary 0/π phase plate

The intensity distribution in the focal region for the azimuthally polarized beam phase-encoded by the binary 0/π phase plate is calculated on the basis of the vector diffraction theory. With the annular pupil aperture employed, the resolution of the focal spot will be improved remarkably. We demonstrate a sharper focal spot with full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 0.223λ (below λ/4), significantly smaller that of linear, circular and radial polarization beam under the same condition. The focusing phenomena for illumination beam with various polarization status and beam shapes are analyzed explicitly. This analysis could have potential applications in confocal microscopy and two-photo microscopy for polarization difference imaging.     

三波片偏振态变换器误差分析

在相干光通信和高速光纤通信等领域,要求偏振变换器具有高的偏振变换精度。对由两个可独立旋转的λ／4波片和一个可独立旋转的λ／2皮片组成的三波片偏振变换器的偏振变换误差进行了详细的分析。利用二维几何方法推导出了由波片方位角误差造成的偏振变换误差模型,并进行了数值计算。研究结果表明,三波片不同的组合方式对偏振态的变换精度有影响。其中,λ／4 λ／2 λ／4组合具有最高的偏振变换精度,λ／2 λ／4 λ／4次之,λ／4 λ／4 λ／2的最差;经三种偏振变换器变换后偏振态的方位角的变换误差较大,变换后偏振态的椭率角的误差很小;三种偏振变换器都可以实现较高精度的任意偏振态变换。

基于双AOTF的新型成像光谱偏振探测系统

声光可调谐滤波器(AOTF)具有体积小、波长稳定性好、扫描范围宽、调制速度快等优点,在光谱成像中被广泛应用,但单独采用AOTF的成像光谱偏振探测还较少。为此提出只采用两个AOTF的成像光谱偏振探测新方法。该方法首先通过分束镜将入射光分成两束,两束光分别通过两个AOTF,而两个AOTF的正一级衍射光的偏振方向互成45°,由于AOTF的正一级衍射光的偏振方向互相垂直,因此两个AOTF的正负一级分别可得到0°,45°,90°和135°的光强,在测量中需保持两个AOTF的滤光所对应的波长完全相等。最后通过对两个AOTF的正负一级衍射成像,最终得到Stokes偏振信息中S₀(0°和90°光强和)、S₁(0°和90°光强差)和S₂(45°和135°光强差),结合相应的理论公式对被测目标的线偏振度(DoLP)和线偏振角(AoLP)实现成像。再通过对AOTF的射频驱动进行扫频,实现对被测目标不同波长偏振成像,最终实现成像光谱偏振探测。并通过对500,550和600 nm偏振成像进行实验验证。该方法具有无运动部件、无需转动、一次测量同时获得成像光谱偏振信息的优点。

Real-time monitoring of all-optical poling of azo-dye polymer thin film

Simultaneous writing and probing of photoinduced second-order susceptibility chi((2)) in an azo-dye polymer thin film is demonstrated. The method is based on the fact that tensor properties of chi((2)) provide different planes of polarization for seeding and signal second harmonics. Our technique allows the chi((2)) value to be monitored in real time, completely eliminating the distortion of optical poling that can occur in traditional probing configurations. The possibility of attaining high values of chi((2)) in a DR1-PMMA guest?host system under low seeding intensities is shown.     

Anomalously high photovoltages in terbium molybdate

In terbium molybdate Tb₂(MoO₄)₃ at room temperature, a laser beam of wavelength λ ₁=4880 Å induces an electric polarization that lasts for several days after the irradiation is turned off. The photoinduced polarization has the same sign as the spontaneous polarization. At a laser power of 0.5 W and an exposure time of 4.5 h, the photoinduced polarization exceeds the spontaneous polarization by an order of magnitude. The corresponding electric field is 2.5×10⁶ V/cm. Under the influence of radiation with λ ₁=4880 Å, terbium molybdate luminesces in the green part of the spectrum near λ ₂≈5425 Å. The luminescence quantum yield is 20%.     

Formation of sub-half-wavelength focal spot with ultra long depth of focus

We theoretically demonstrate the creation of sub-wavelength focal spot with ultra long depth of focus (DOF) non-diffracting. To achieve a sub-half-wavelength focal spot (0.4λ) with modulation, extended DOF (over 9.5λ) in vacuum, an integration of amplitude phase encoding, cylindrical polarization and the combination of dual-beams is utilized. Further analysis also predicts that a flattop intensity distribution along z axis can be observed around the ideal focus point.     

Extension of the Jones matrix formalism to higher-order transverse modes

The well-known Jones matrix formalism, which can be directly applied to the propagation of the polarization of fundamental (TEM(00)) laser resonator modes, has to be modified for higher-order transverse modes. It is shown that this can be done in straightforward manner by using N x N matrices instead of the 2 x 2 Jones matrices, where N denotes the number of orthogonal polarization states of the transverse mode under consideration. The most common case of TEM(01) Hermite-Gaussian modes, where N is four, is discussed in detail.     

New type of 3.39 μm laser beam attenuator

A variable beam attenuator for 3.39 μm radiation consists of two yttrium orthovanadate crystal plane-parallel plates and one λ/2 MgF₂ waveplate. The attenuated light beam can be kept at the same states of polarization and vacuity distribution as those of the incident light beam. The attenuation ratio is independent of the state of the incident light beam and can be changed continually.     

The influence of the polarization effect in Talbot self-imaging of high-density gratings

The Talbot self-imaging of high-density gratings with different period at half Talbot distance for different polarization is analyzed with the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The numerical results indicate that the Talbot self-imaging of high-density gratings is obviously different for different polarization when the period d of the grating between 2λ and 3λ, which is verified through experimental results with the scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM) technique. Furthermore, the Fourier spectrum (far field) generated by the gratings is also given with the rigorous coupled-wave method, which is in agreement with the near field.     

Influence of incident light polarization on photonic nanojet

Dielectric microspheres can confine light in a three-dimensional (3D) region called photonic nanojet is shown when they are illuminated by different polarized beams. The influence of incident light polarization on photonic nanojet using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is demostrated. The axial field intensity profiles of photonic nanojets for both the linear and circular polarization incident beams are very similar. Azimuthal polarization incident beam induces a doughnut beam along the optical axis, while the radial polarization incident beam permits one to reach an effective volume as small as 0.7(λ/n) 3 .

Broadband tunable Raman soliton self-frequency shift to mid-infrared band in a highly birefringent microstructure fiber

Raman soliton self-frequency shifted to mid-infrared band(λ 2 μm) has been achieved in an air-silica microstructure fiber(MF). The MF used in our experiment has an elliptical core with diameters of 1.08 and 2.48 μm for fast and slow axis. Numerical simulation shows that each fundamental orthogonal polarization mode has two wide-spaced λZDW and theλZDW pairs located at 701/2110 nm and 755/2498 nm along the fast and slow axis, respectively. Using 810-nm Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser as pump, when the output power varies from 0.3 to 0.5 W, the furthest red-shift Raman solitons in both fast and slow axis shift from near-infrared band to mid-infrared band, reaching as far as 2030 and 2261 nm. Also, midinfrared Raman solitons can always be generated for pump wavelength longer than 790 nm if output pump power reaches0.5 W. Specifically, with pump power at 0.5 W, the mid-infrared soliton in slow axis shifts from 2001 to 2261 nm when the pump changes from 790 nm to 810 nm. This means only a 20 nm change of pump results in 260 nm tunability of a mid-infrared soliton.     

Sub-100-nm laser-induced periodic surface structures upon irradiation of titanium by Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser pulses in air

The formation of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) on titanium upon irradiation with linearly polarized femtosecond (fs) laser pulses (τ=30 fs, λ=790 nm) in an air environment is studied experimentally and theoretically. In the experiments, the dependence on the laser fluence and the number of laser pulses per irradiation spot has been analyzed. For a moderate number of laser pulses (N<1000) and at fluences between ～0.09 and ～0.35 J/cm², predominantly low-spatial-frequency-LIPSS with periods between 400 nm and 800 nm are observed perpendicular to the polarization. In a narrow fluence range between 0.05 and 0.09 J/cm², high-spatial-frequency-LIPSS with sub-100-nm spatial periods (～λ/10) can be generated with an orientation parallel to the polarization (N=50). These experimental results are complemented by calculations based on a theoretical LIPSS model and compared to the present literature.     

The effect of the crystalline perfection of quartz on the rotation of the plane of polarization of light

The wavelength dependence of the specific rotation of the plane of polarization of light by quartz crystals is experimentally studied. The chirality coefficients determined from the plots δ(1/λ²) are found to be different for different crystals. The differences between these plots are associated with the perfection of the crystal structure of quartz. The rotation of the plane of polarization is more sensitive to imperfection of the medium and makes it possible to reveal this imperfection without additional irradiation of crystalline quartz by γ quanta.     

Coupling characteristics of high birefringence dual-core As2S3 rectangular lattice photonic crystal fiber

A type of As₂S₃ chalcogenide glass mid-infrared dual-core photonic crystal fiber has been proposed. The dual-core photonic crystal fiber (PCF) consists of two asymmetric cores. The high polarization property and the coupling characteristics have been studied by using the finite element method and mode coupling theory. Numerical results show that the birefringence at wavelength λ = 10 μm is up to 0.01386 and the coupling length can reach wavelength λ = 5 μm, 261 μm and 271.44 μm for x-polarized mode and y-polarized mode, respectively. It demonstrates that a 6.786-mm-long fiber can exhibit an extinction ratio of better than -10 dB and a bandwidth of 180 nm.     

Electroweak interactions probing the nucleon structure

The possibility is studied of isolating single electroweak structure functions in deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering atQ ² aroundM _Z ² . Utilizing the cross-section dependence on the lepton charge and longitudinal polarization λ it is shown that the most-conclusive results follow from measurements of σ⁺(?λ)±σ^?(+λ). Considerable simplifications of the problem are possible if λ can be tuned to sin² θ dependent values of about 0.2. New quark-parton model relations are derived.     

渤海近岸水体悬浮颗粒物对后向散射特性的影响研究

进行海洋水体悬浮颗粒物的空间分布及粒径构成对后向散射特性变化影响,研究对于加深水体散射性质的认识、提高水色遥感反演参数的精度及海洋环境监测等具有重要意义。结合渤海海域2017年6月、9月的现场数据,获得了夏季、秋季各站位总悬浮颗粒物浓度(SPM)、颗粒粒径以及后向散射系数等参数并进行研究。结果表明,后向散射系数b_bp在可见光波段随波长的增加而减小;同时,夏季和秋季,大多数站位b_bp(550)的变化趋势与SPM的变化趋势基本一致;在进行两者之间的相关性研究时发现,相关系数R2并不高,仅为0.24。该研究还建立了平均粒径(D_A)、中值粒径(D₅₀)与b_bp的关系,得出D_A与b_bp呈线性关系,受季节及水体颗粒构成的影响,夏季,水体颗粒物以小颗粒为主,两者之间的相关性高于秋季,两个季节的R2分别为0.7和0.3;同时得出当水体以小颗粒为主时,b_bp随D_A增大而增大,以大颗粒为主的时,b_bp随D_A增大而减小。D₅₀与b_bp的关系则不同,两者之间呈现非常好的幂指数关系,在同一季节里,b_bp均随着D₅₀的增大而减小,即水体中颗粒物粒径越小,其后向散射系数越大,夏季和秋季两者之间的相关系数分别为0.66和0.5;并且发现如果不分季节差异,现场水体颗粒物的粒径构成对b_bp的影响很难确定。
