Measurement of the optical absorption coefficient for liquid based on optical microfiber

An inline measuring method of the optical absorption coefficient for liquid based on optical microfiber (OM) is studied. If an OM is immersed into absorptive liquid, the additional loss of the OM will increase. We have analyzed the relationship between the additional loss of the OMs and the absorption coefficients of the liquids, and found that the OM with determinate construction will be useful for measuring the absorption coefficients of the liquid whose refractive index is lower than that of the OM. Two OM samples are prepared to measure the absorption coefficient of pure water. A supercontinuum source is launched into the OM sample which is immersed into pure water, and absorption spectrum from 1400 to 1700 nm has been achieved by monitoring the additional loss. The trend of the absorption spectrum is similar with that of the reported result, showing that the inline measurement of the optical absorption coefficient is a feasible method for those lower refractive index liquids.     

Temperature-induced effect on refractive index of graphene based on coated in-fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer

The temperature-induced complex refractive index(CRI) effect of graphene is demonstrated theoretically and experimentally based on a graphene coated in-fiber MZI(Mach-Zehnder interferometer). The relationships between real and imaginary parts of the graphene CRI and temperature are obtained through investigating the dip wavelength and intensity of the MZI interference spectrum changing with temperature, respectively. The temperature effect of CRI of the graphene is also analyzed theoretically. Both experimental and theoretical studies show that the real part and imaginary part of the CRI nonlinearly decrease and increase with temperature increasing, respectively. This graphene-coated in-fiber MZI structure also possesses the advantages of easy fabrication, miniaturization, low cost and robustness. It has potential applications in nanomaterial-based optic devices for communication and sensing.

Quasibound states in graphene quantum-dot nanostructures generated by concentric potential barrier rings

We study the quasibound states in a graphene quantum-dot structure generated by the single-, double-, and triple-barrier electrostatic potentials. It is shown that the strongest quasibound states are mainly determined by the innermost barrier. Specifically, the positions of the quasibound states are determined by the barrier height, the number of the quasibound states is determined by the quantum-dot radius and the angular momentum, and the localization degree of the quasibound states is influenced by the width of the innermost barrier, as well as the outside barriers. Furthermore, according to the study on the double- and triple-barrier quantum dots, we find that an effective way to generate more quasibound states with even larger energy level spacings is to design a quantum dot defined by many concentric barriers with larger barrier-height differences. Last, we extend our results into the quantum dot of many barriers, which gives a complete picture about the formation of the quasibound states in the kind of graphene quantum dot created by many concentric potential barrier rings.

Gold nanoparticles produced by laser ablation in water and in graphene oxide suspension

The comparison between two different approaches based on the use of the laser ablation in medium to synthetise gold nanoparticles is presented and discussed. Deionised water as well as a graphene oxide (GO) suspension in deionised water have been employed as solution to produce gold nanoparticles by laser ablation. In the former case, the nanoparticles assembly has been stabilised by using surfactants, but in the latter case to avoid undesired effects the use of chemicals was not necessary and Au reduced graphene oxide (Au-rGO) nanocomposites have been obtained. The structure, size and composition of the gold nanoparticles and of the Au–rGO nanocomposites have been monitored by UV–Vis–NIR absorption spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy, the transmission and scanning electron microscopies and the X-ray energy-dispersive spectroscopy. The presented methodology of Au rGO nanocomposites preparation could represent a green alternative on the production of metallic nanoparticles in biocompatible environment.
