Transient anomalous dispersion in random walkers

A simple model of dispersive tracers which display a transient anomalous regime is presented. It is based on an ensemble of random walkers belonging to two independent populations characterized by different Lagrangian decorrelation times. Apart from short-time ballistic and long-time diffusive behavior, the dispersion shows anomalous scaling at intermediate times over a wide range of variability for the free parameters of the model.     

Transfer of information in an anomalous dispersion medium

The transfer of information and signal velocity in an anomalous dispersion medium are studied. We propose that the discontinuous points in the envelop and its derivatives of any order are the information carried by a pulse different from others. The signal velocity will not exceed the speed of the shift of these discontinuous points. We study the propagation of pulses with a triangle envelop and with the envelop made up by three pieces of quadratic curve in dilute, anomalous dispersion gas with double gain lines. The discontinuous points of the envelop, its first derivative, and its second derivative are shown to propagate with vacuum speed of light c in the medium. A criterion has been suggested to determine theoretically whether the distortion of a pulse can be ignored.     

Negative refractive index and anomalous dispersion

Media with negative index of refraction are discussed briefly within Sellmeier model. In particular, dispersion of light waves is found to be anomalous and the corresponding coefficient of material dispersion is found to be negative. In addition, the group index becomes negative.

Design of apochromatic telescope without anomalous dispersion glasses

A novel lens system with correction of secondary spectrum without using anomalous glasses is presented. The lens system comprises four separated lens components, with three of them being subapertures. Two examples of apochromatic telescope are presented, both with the use of typical normal glasses, namely crown K9 and flint F5 glasses, and low-cost slightly anomalous dispersion glasses. Secondary spectrum and other chromatic aberrations of the two design examples are corrected.     

Two-dimensional envelope localized waves in the anomalous dispersion regime

Narrowband localized wave packets that are nondispersing and nondiffracting in one transverse dimension are characterized in anomalously dispersive media by means of a Fourier approach. Depending on the group velocity, waves with a dispersion relationship characterized by real wavenumbers can be O or X waves, while we also find waves with evanescent wavenumbers.     

Excitable front geometry in reaction-diffusion systems with anomalous dispersion

Two-dimensional excitable systems with anomalous dispersion provide a discrete set of interpulse distances for the stable propagation of planar wave trains. Numerical simulations show that the trailing front of a pulse pair can undergo transitions between these stable distances. In response to localized perturbations, the trailing front converges towards one of numerous, sigmoidal shapes. Their transition segments move at constant speeds and can collide and fuse with each other. A complementing kinematic analysis of the front dynamics yields a reaction-diffusion-like equation.     

Energy-dispersive x-ray laue measurements with anomalous dispersion effects

By using an energy dispersive solid state detector, harmonics were separated in a Lauetype diffraction experiment with a single crystal and white primary radiation (Bremsstrahlung) from a conventional x-ray tube. Intensity changes around the absorption edge of an atom species in the crystal could be verified according to theory.Dedicated to Prof. Dr. H.E. Müser on the occasion of his 60th birthday     

Measurements of anomalous dispersion by the interference fringe shift

A method of measurement of anomalous dispersion near spectral lines of absorption from interference fringe shifts is described. The sensitivity and accuracy of the method is analyzed and its advantage over the hook method is demonstrated. The system consists of Rozhdestvenskii's interferometer and a diffraction grating spectrometer. The device is adapted both to photo and photoelectric recording of the interference fringes.The technique is tested on the first resonance doublet of sodium with the wave lenghts 5890, 5896 Å. For the oscillator strengths ratio ?₅₈₉₀/?₅₈₉₆ we get 2.05±0.03.     

Direct observation of optical precursors in a region of anomalous dispersion

We create optical precursors by propagating a step-modulated optical pulse through a linear resonant dielectric absorber. The field emerging from the dielectric consists of a several-nanosecond-long spike with near 100% transmission, which decays to a constant value expected from Beer's law. This high-transmission spike might be useful for imaging applications requiring penetrating optical radiation. We compare our observations to two different theories, revealing that the spike consists of both the Sommerfeld and Brillouin precursors.     

Measurements of anomalous dispersion in rayleigh scattering of characteristic X-ray fluorescence

Summary When using characteristic fluorescence X-rays or γ-rays of energy under 100 keV to study the Rayleigh scattering of photons from atoms the effect of anomalous dispersion is not in general negligible. On the contrary, it may cause the atomic cross-section values to vary with respect to the tabulated values—usually calculated in nonresonant approximation—of an order of magnitude in the most critical cases. In this work we present experimental results of Rayleigh scattering where this effect is well evident. We used as sources of excitation a radioisotope (²⁴¹Am,E _γ 59.6 keV) and a X-ray tube with a series of different secondary anodes and solid-state detectors to detect the scattered radiation. We reviewed the atomic form factor formalism which describes the phenomenon in a nonrelativistic treatment and we show its strict analogy with QEDS-matrix theory. We obtained numerical values for the cross-sections by using the tabulated values of the photoelectric cross-sections and we made a comparison with the experimental values. The error of the measurements (∼3%) derives from the superposition of the Rayleigh scattering with the characteristic X-ray fluorescence lines. Within the error limits the agreement with the values from the form factor approximation is very satisfactory.

Riassunto Quando si utilizza la radiazione X di fluorescenza caratteristica o la radiazione γ di energia minore di 100 keV per studiare la diffusione elastica da parte degli atomi (diffusione di Rayleigh), l'effetto della diffusione anomala non è in generale trascurabile. Al contrario, essa può causare variazioni anche di un ordine di grandezza dei valori delle sezioni d'urto atomiche rispetto ai valori tabulati che sono usualmente calcolati nell'approssimazione non risonante. In questo lavoro si presentano i risultati sperimentali di alcune misure di diffusione di Rayleigh nei quali questo effetto è ben evidente. Come sorgenti di radiazione sono stati utilizzati un isotopo radioattivo (²⁴¹Am,E _γ=59.6 keV) e una serie di anodi secondari associati a un tubo X. Per la rivelazione della radiazione X sono stati utilizzati rivelatori a stato solido. Si è eseguita una revisione del formalismo dei fattori di forma atomici per la descrizione del fenomeno in una trattazione non relativistica e si mostra la stretta analogia con la teoria della matriceS dell'elettrodinamica quantistica. Si sono ottenuti i risultati numerici per le sezioni d'urto di diffusione elastica utilizzando i valori tabulati per le sezioni d'urto fotoelettriche e si sono confrontati con i valori ottenuti sperimentalmente. L'errore delle misure (∼3%) deriva dalla sovrapposizione della diffusione di Rayleigh con le righe di fluorescenza caratteristica. Entro questi limiti di errore l'accordo con i valori ricavati nell'approssimazione dei fattori di forma è molto soddisfacente.

Резюме При использовании характеристической рентгеновской или γ-лучевой флуоресценции с энергией до 100 кэВ для исследования рэлеевского рассеяния фотонов на атомах, влияние аномальной дисперсии не является в общем случае пренебрежимо малым. Наоборот, эффект аномальной дисперсии может изменить значения атомных поперечных сечений по сравнению с табулированными значениями, обычно вычисляемыми в нерезонансном приближении, в наиболее критических случаях на порядок величины. В этой работе приводятся резулятаты для рэлеевского рассеяния, где эффект аномальной дисперсии является существенным. Мы используем в качестве источников возбуждения радиоизотоп (²⁴¹Am,E _γ=59.6 кэВ) и рентгеновскую трубку с различными вторичными анодами и твердотельные детекторы для регистрации рассеянного излучения. Мы используем формализм атомного форм-фактора, который описывает явление в нерелятивистском приближении. Мы отмечаем точную аналогию с теориейS-матрицы в квантовой электродинамике. Получаются численные значения для поперечных сечений, используя табулированные величины для фотоэлектрических поперечных сечений. Проводится сравнение полученных значений с экспериментальными данными. Погрешность измерений (∼3%) определяется из суперпозиции рэлеевского рассеяния с линиями характеристической рентгеновской Флуоресценции. В пределах погрешностей получается удовлетворительное согласие с результатами, полученными из приближения атомного форм-фактора.

     

Generation of domain-wall solitons in an anomalous dispersion fiber ring laser

We report experimental observations performed using a net anomalous dispersion Er-doped fiber ring laser without polarization-selective elements, highlighting the domain-wall solitary pulses generated under the incoherent polarization coupling. By adjusting the pump power and the polarization state appropriately, bright and dark solitons can stably co-exist in the cavity, both centered at 1562.16 nm with a 3-dB spectral width of ～ 0.15 nm and a repetition rate of 3.83 MHz. Moreover, the 0.8 mm long thulium-doped fiber (TDF) facilitated the mode-locking and self-starting of the laser. This is the first demonstration of a laser being used to generate bright and dark solitons synchronously while using TDF as the saturable absorber (SA). Except possessing the all-fiber structure, the laser exhibits good stability, which may have a significant influence on improvement of the pulse-laser design, and may broaden practical applications in optical sensing, optical communication, and soliton multiplexed systems.     

Frequency-resolved photocurrent studies of a-Se

 Optically modulated photocurrent response of amorphous selenium (a-Se) thin films was measured between 20 K and 295 K, by using the in-quadrature frequency-resolved spectroscopy method. The results show that the modulated photocurrent depends on external parameters such as excitation light intensity and temperature, giving information about recombination kinetics.

Demonstration of Faraday anomalous dispersion optical filter with reflection configuration

A narrow linewidth Faraday anomalous dispersion optical filter(FADOF)with reflection configuration is achieved for the first time based on the cesium(Cs)ground state 6S_1/2 to the excited state 6P_3/2 transition at 852 nm.Compared with the conventional FADOF with transmission configuration,reflection-type FADOF can greatly improve the transmittance of optical filter under the same experimental parameters,because it allows signal light to go and return through the atomic vapor cell.In our experiment,peak transmittance at Cs 6S_1/2 F=4-6P_3/2 transition is 81%for the reflection-type FADOF,and while 54%for the transmission-type FADOF when the temperature of Cs vapor cell and the axial magnetic field are 60℃and 19 G.The idea of this reflection-type FADOF design has the potential to be applied to the FADOF operating between two excited states to obtain higher transmittance.
