High power single transverse mode operation of a tapered large-mode-area fiber laser

To get high output power with good beam quality, a tapered section is introduced to large-mode-area (LMA) Yb-doped fiber laser. Output characteristics of the fiber laser without tapered section and with tapered section are compared experimentally. When the launched pump power is 119.1 W, 77.9 W with M² 3.08 and 56.4 W with M² 1.14 can be obtained, respectively. The corresponding slope efficiencies are 71.8% and 54.1%, respectively. Although output power of the tapered fiber laser has 30.6% penalty, brightness of it is as much as 5.28 times of the fiber laser without tapered section. Moreover, spectra of them are measured. It is found that tapered section makes lasing wavelength of the fiber laser shorter.

大气激光通信用直锥形光纤发射天线

 提出采用直锥形光纤作为大气激光通信的发射天线,将多模光纤输出的部分相干发散光束变换为准平行光束的方案,既能得到发散角很小的部分相干激光光束,又能保证激光器输出能量的完全传输。采用光线追迹法分析了任意光束从锥形光纤小端面输入、大端面输出的发散角。结果表明,当直锥形光纤长度大于某一特定值时,从小端面输入的入射角小于数值孔径角的所有光线理论上都可以变换为出射角度小于光纤半锥角的光线,因此直锥形光纤可以作为部分相干光源的准直透镜,代替传统的凸透镜,用于改善光束的发散角。对远场光斑进行了数值模拟和实验研究,结果显示：直锥形光纤透镜对朗伯光源的准直光束比传统凸透镜的准直光束发散角小,光斑半径小且均匀性好,证明用此方法可以得到低发散、低空间相干性的光斑。

Dose estimates when electrons strike a copper absorber during injection at the Canadian Light Source

Dose estimates are undertaken when injected electrons strike a tapered copper absorber of the insertion device beamline during injection at the Canadian Light Source (CLS).A model consisting of a tapered copper absorber, a wiggler vessel, a stainless steel beam pipe and a concrete ratchet and side wall is constructed. The doses immediately behind the ratchet wall are estimated by calculating the energy depositions in a water phantom that encloses the entire structure. Also estimated are the doses along the side wall and near the inner edge of the ratchet wall.The accumulated doses are calculated assuming various injection efficiencies to the storage ring and the number of electrons lost at the tapered copper absorber during injection. From these values, the dose rates are obtained with or without a local shield.

Analysis of a tapered vane loaded broad-band gyro-TWT

The wide-band low-gain feature of a tapered smooth wall gyro-traveling wave tube (gyro-TWT) was combined with the low beam energy, low magnetic field, and high gain, though narrow band, feature of a vane loaded nontapered gyro-TWT, to propose a distributed, tapered vane loaded gyro-TWT for both high gains and wide bandwidths. The device was analyzed for the tapering of any one of the three parameters - the waveguide radius, the vane depth, and the vane angle keeping the remaining two as constant. The magnetic field was also synchronously tapered. The optimum taper and vane parameters were predicted for a large gain and bandwidth     

Waveguide Cross Section and Background Magnetic Field Tapers for Broadbanding a Gyro-TWT

The gyro-TWT in a cylindrical waveguide of linearly-tapered cross section was analyzed for the gain-frequency response, using the Pierce-type gain equation. The taper in the waveguide cross section was adjusted for wide device bandwidths, either by changing the taper angle, while keeping the interaction length to be constant, or by changing the interaction length, while keeping the initial and final radii of the waveguide constant. Tapering led to the prediction of wide bandwidths, though at the cost of gain, as compared to a non-tapered device. The range of the DC background magnetic flux density relative to its grazing-point value was identified as a crucial parameter for large gains, with appreciable bandwidths, and minimum mode mixing in a tapered device, the latter in general facing more mode competition than a non-tapered device.     

Evanescent field-based optical fiber sensing device for measuring the refractive index of liquids in microfluidic channels

We report a simple optical sensing device capable of measuring the refractive index of liquids propagating in microfluidic channels. The sensor is based on a single-mode optical fiber that is tapered to submicrometer dimensions and immersed in a transparent curable soft polymer. A channel for liquid analyte is created in the immediate vicinity of the taper waist. Light propagating through the tapered section of the fiber extends into the channel, making the optical loss in the system sensitive to the refractive-index difference between the polymer and the liquid. The fabrication process and testing of the prototype sensing devices are described. The sensor can operate both as a highly responsive on-off device and in the continuous measurement mode, with an estimated accuracy of refractive-index measurement of approximately 5 x 10(-4).     

High-power passively mode-locked tapered InAs/GaAs quantum-dot lasers

We report picosecond pulse generation with high peak power in the range of 3.6 W from monolithic passively mode-locked tapered quantum-dot laser diodes, exhibiting low divergence and good beam quality. These results were achieved using a gain-guided tapered laser geometry. The generation of picosecond pulses with high average power up to 209 mW directly from such tapered lasers is also demonstrated, corresponding to 14.2 pJ pulse energy (14.65 GHz repetition rate). A comparison between the mode-locking performance of these tapered lasers incorporating either five or ten layers of InAs/GaAs self-organized quantum dots in their active layer is also presented.     

A high-power subterahertz surface wave oscillator with separated overmoded slow wave structures

A megawatt-level subterahertz surface wave oscillator(SWO) is proposed to obtain high conversion efficiency by using separated overmoded slow wave structures(SWSs). Aiming at the repetitive operation and practical applications, the device driven by electron beam with modest energy and current is theoretically analyzed and verified. Then,the functions of the two SWS sections and the effect of the drift tube are investigated by using a particle-in-cell code to reveal how the proposed device achieves high efficiency. The mode analysis of the beam-wave interaction region in the device is also carried out, and the results indicate that multi-modes participate in the premodulation of the electron beam in the first SWS section, while the TM01 mode surface wave is successfully and dominantly excited and amplified in the second SWS section. Finally, a typical simulation result demonstrates that at a beam energy of 313 ke V, beam current of 1.13 k A, and guiding magnetic field of above 3.5 T, a high-power subterahertz wave is obtained with an output power of about 70 MW at frequency 146.3 GHz, corresponding to the conversion efficiency of 20%. Compared with the results of the previous subterahertz overmoded SWOs with integral SWS and similar beam parameters, the efficiency increases almost 50% in the proposed device.

Nonlinear finite amplitude vibrations of sharp-edged beams in viscous fluids

In this paper, we study flexural vibrations of a cantilever beam with thin rectangular cross section submerged in a quiescent viscous fluid and undergoing oscillations whose amplitude is comparable with its width. The structure is modeled using Euler–Bernoulli beam theory and the distributed hydrodynamic loading is described by a single complex-valued hydrodynamic function which accounts for added mass and fluid damping experienced by the structure. We perform a parametric 2D computational fluid dynamics analysis of an oscillating rigid lamina, representative of a generic beam cross section, to understand the dependence of the hydrodynamic function on the governing flow parameters. We find that increasing the frequency and amplitude of the vibration elicits vortex shedding and convection phenomena which are, in turn, responsible for nonlinear hydrodynamic damping. We establish a manageable nonlinear correction to the classical hydrodynamic function developed for small amplitude vibration and we derive a computationally efficient reduced order modal model for the beam nonlinear oscillations. Numerical and theoretical results are validated by comparison with ad hoc designed experiments on tapered beams and multimodal vibrations and with data available in the literature. Findings from this work are expected to find applications in the design of slender structures of interest in marine applications, such as biomimetic propulsion systems and energy harvesting devices.
