单纵模Nd:YAG激光泵浦H2气中的受激喇曼散射

用单纵模Nd:YAG激光(波长1.06μm,脉宽9ns,线宽0.003cm-1)泵浦氢气中的受激喇曼散射,产生很强的后向一级斯托克斯.当泵浦能量为120mJ,压力为1.5MPaH2时,后向和前向喇曼的光子转化效率分别为66%和15%,而在4MPa时两个数值分别为46%和39%.由于后向喇曼与前向喇曼和泵浦光的传播方向相反,二者的相互竞争产生了张弛振荡,使得后向和前向喇曼的时间波形都分裂为两个峰,后向喇曼的两个峰都被压窄到1ns,使峰值功率达到了泵浦光功率的二倍,这在前向喇曼是不可能的.而且后向喇曼的光束质量要大大优于泵浦光和前向喇曼的光束质量,在4MPaH2和脉冲重复频率为10Hz时,喇曼过程的放热使前向喇曼的光束质量变坏,但对后向喇曼的光束质量影响不大.计算表明,该实验条件下受激喇曼过程没有达到稳态,所有实验结果都可以而且只能用相关的瞬态受激喇曼理论解释.     

Multifocus confocal Raman microspectroscopy for fast multimode vibrational imaging of living cells

We have developed a multifocus confocal Raman microspectroscopic system for the fast multimode vibrational imaging of living cells. It consists of an inverted microscope equipped with a microlens array, a pinhole array, a fiber bundle, and a multichannel Raman spectrometer. Forty-eight Raman spectra from 48 foci under the microscope are simultaneously obtained by using multifocus excitation and image-compression techniques. The multifocus confocal configuration suppresses the background generated from the cover glass and the cell culturing medium so that high-contrast images are obtainable with a short accumulation time. The system enables us to obtain multimode (10 different vibrational modes) vibrational images of living cells in tens of seconds with only 1 mW laser power at one focal point. This image acquisition time is more than 10 times faster than that in conventional single-focus Raman microspectroscopy.     

Induction of the maximum Raman coherence in an extended medium through fractional adiabatic passage

The effect of fractional stimulated Raman adiabatic passage in an optically dense medium of three-level Λ atoms is shown to result in the maximum coherence on the Raman transition on a length of the medium that considerably exceeds the length of linear resonant absorption. The general case of unequal oscillator strengths of the adjacent transitions is analyzed. The results are of interest for coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy with delayed pulses.

实验上研究了宽带KrF激光抽运的受激布里渊散射(SBS)随抽运功率密度、介质气压和透镜焦距这三个实验参数的变化规律.在较低的抽运功率密度情况下，SBS反射率随抽运功率密度呈非线性增长；当抽运功率密度提高到一定程度，SBS反射率接近饱和；当功率密度继续增大，SBS 反射率随之下降.介质气压提高能够促进SBS的转换.透镜焦距长度的变化使SBS饱和反射率存在一峰值.理论上建立了宽带多模SBS模型，数值模拟结果与实验结果符合得很好，解释了宽带SBS反射率对实验参数的变化规律. 关键词： 宽带 KrF激光 受激布里渊散射(SBS) 反射率

Investigation on high-power load ability of stimulated Brillouin scattering phase conjugating mirror

The factors that affect the performance of stimulated Brillouin scattering phase conjugating mirror (SBS-PCM) in high-power condition are demonstrated. In high-power condition, the reflectivity is limited by both the SBS medium and the PCM configuration. FC-72 is found to be the best SBS liquid medium for its very high optical breakdown threshold and very low absorption coefficient by comparing several media. As FC-72 is chosen, the impurity of the liquid is the most remarkable factor which affects the reflectivity of PCM. The Millipore membrane filters with aperture of 0.22 μm was used to clean the liquid, and the reflectivity was evidently increased. Among the parameters of the SBS-PCM, the focal length of lens is one of the most important parameters related to the load ability. In the condition of the input laser of 1 J and 10 Hz, the appropriate focal length is proved to be 50 cm. As lens is chosen, the rotating wedge plate (RWP) is used to decrease the effects of optical breakdown and thermal effects in the condition of high power and stable reflectivity is achieved. Synthetically considering all the factors of medium and configuration, an energy reflectivity of 82% is achieved when the input energy is 0.94 J and the repetition rate is at 10 Hz.     

Superradiance and Raman scattering in three-level molecular system

A model is presented for the dynamics of superradiance, coherent and stimulated Raman scattering from an optically pumped three-level system. The evolution of the pumping and two counterpropagating waves in the adjacent transition are taken into account. The results of computer simulation show that by specifying the pumping pulse area, and active medium length and pressure we can control the parameters of the pulses in the adjacent transition. The possibilities of observing coherent Raman scattering dynamics, which are significantly different from that for stimulated Raman scattering, are shown. The results of simulation show that for the ultrashort pumping pulse the superradiative emission in the backward direction is formed within the coherence length near the entrance plane of the active medium.     

透镜焦距对受激布里渊散射光限幅特性的影响

采用受激布里渊散射(SBS)噪声起源理论模型，数值模拟了透镜焦距对SBS光限幅功率特性和能量特性的影响.结果表明，改变透镜焦距就可以方便的控制SBS光限幅的功率波形和输出能量.当采用焦距适中的透镜(f=15cm)时，可以得到较低的限幅输出能量；当采用短焦距的透镜(f=5cm)时，可以得到较理想的限幅功率波形.在实验上将波长1064nm、脉宽8ns、能量16mJ的Nd:YAG激光脉冲聚焦到CCl₄介质中，研究了限幅功率波形和限幅输出能量随透镜焦距的变化规律，实验结果与理论模拟相符合. 关键词： 受激布里渊散射 光限幅 数值模拟

当高功率激光通过Kerr非线性介质传输时,Kerr效应会严重影响激光的传输特性.实际应用中常遇到像散光束.迄今为止,像散光束传输特性的研究大都局限于在线性介质中的传输,而在非线性介质中传输的研究较少,且还未涉及像散激光束通过含光学系统的Kerr非线性介质传输变换的研究.本文主要研究Kerr效应对聚焦光束像散特性和焦移特性的影响,以及聚焦像散高斯光束的自聚焦焦距和光束焦点调控.在光束扩展情况下,推导出了聚焦像散高斯光束在Kerr非线性介质中传输的束宽、束腰位置和焦移的解析公式,研究表明:在自聚焦介质中,随着自聚焦作用增强(如光束功率增强),光束像散越强,但焦移越小;在自散焦介质中,随着自散焦作用增强(如光束功率增强),光束像散越弱,但焦移越大.另一方面,在光束自聚焦情况下,推导出了自聚焦焦距的解析公式,研究表明利用光束像散可以调控光束焦点个数.
