The combination of several high order harmonics can produce an attosecond pulse train, provided that the harmonics are locked in phase to each other. We present calculations that evaluate the degree of phase locking that is achieved in argon and neon gases interacting with an intense, 50 fs laser pulse, for a range of macroscopic conditions. We find that phase locking depends on both the temporal and the spatial phase behavior of the harmonics, as determined by the interplay between the intrinsic dipole phase and the phase matching in the nonlinear medium. We show that, as a consequence of this, it is not possible to compensate for a lack of phase locking by purely temporal phase manipulation. 相似文献

We measured disparity threshold for identifying the depth direction as a function of spatial frequency with various temporal frequencies and stimulus contrasts using drifting gratings. The results showed that disparity threshold depended little on temporal frequency with the exception of high temporal frequencies (≥ 10Hz) independently of stimulus contrast. Contrary to temporal frequency, contrast substantially influenced spatial frequency characteristics. The disparity threshold was approximately constant with change in spatial frequency with slight increase at high spatial frequencies for contrasts higher than 0.2 when the threshold is expressed by phase difference between the left and right eye images (phase disparity). The phase disparity threshold had a negative peak at a spatial frequency between 1 and 5c/deg (band-pass) for contrasts lower than 0.2. We discuss possible differences in the underlying mechanisms to determine disparity threshold below and above temporal frequency of 10 Hz. 相似文献

Diffraction phase microscopy with white light 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We present white light diffraction phase microscopy (wDPM) as a quantitative phase imaging method that combines the single shot measurement benefit associated with off-axis methods, high temporal phase stability associated with common path geometries, and high spatial phase sensitivity due to the white light illumination. We propose a spatiotemporal filtering method that pushes the limit of the pathlength sensitivity to the subangstrom level at practical spatial and temporal bandwidths. We illustrate the utility of wDPM with measurements on red blood cell morphology and HeLa cell growth over 18 hours. 相似文献

Pure rotational CARS spectra of N2, O2, air, and CO have been obtained using excimer laser pumped dye-lasers. The combination of the folded BOXCARS phase matching geometry with the broad-band laser multiplex method allowed high spatial and temporal resolution. Species and concentration analysis as well as thermometry up to 700 K is demonstrated, and possible applications are discussed. 相似文献

We investigate macroscopic interference effects in high-order harmonic generation using a Ti:sapphire laser operating at a 100 kHz repetition rate. The structure and behavior of spectral and spatial interference fringes are explained and analytically described by transient phase matching of the long electron trajectory contribution. Time-frequency mapping due to the temporal chirp of the harmonic emission allows us to observe Maker fringes directly in the spectral domain. 相似文献

Two-photon fluorescence (TPF) process is an important research subject and can be optimized by pulse shaping techniques. In addition to temporal femtosecond pulse shaping by spectral phase modulation, we take into account of spatial configuration in the shaping process. The TPF of Coumarin 500 increases 40% with this additional modulation step. This spatial modulation results in not only transverse spatial profile variation but also effect of temporal redistribution at focus. We show that this spatial modulation is an important dimension for pulse shaping and optimization for TPF. 相似文献

Quasi-phase matching schemes employing quasi-periodic or random spatial modulations, previously applied to perturbative nonlinear optics, are demonstrated theoretically for the extreme nonlinear optical process of high harmonic generation. We show that quasi-periodic quasi-phase matching of high harmonic generation can be used for simultaneous enhancement of arbitrarily chosen spectral regions. We also demonstrate enhancement of a single extremely wide bandwidth using random quasi-phase matching. 相似文献

We experimentally investigate the impact of spectral phase mismatch on the coherent beam combining of two femtosecond fiber chirped-pulse amplifiers. By measuring the differential spectral phase, both linear and nonlinear contributions are identified. An accumulated nonlinear phase as high as 6 rad has been measured, for which a combination efficiency of 91% can be obtained by symmetrizing the pump and injection powers. This also allows us to quantitatively separate the spatial and temporal contributions of the nonperfect combining efficiency. 相似文献

计算了MgO:LiNbO3晶体中,共线与非共线相位匹配光参量放大产生超短中红外激光脉冲过程中的相位匹配曲线、有效非线性系数以及时间和空间走离情况。结果表明,采用非共线相位匹配方式,可以实现三波间群速度匹配;在抑制了泵浦光与信号光之间的空间走离的同时加大了泵浦光与闲频光之间的空间走离,但这种影响可以忽略;同时非共线角的引入使相位匹配角增大,提高了有效非线性系数。因此,非共线角的引入在不影响空间走离的情况下,有效补偿超短中红外参量放大过程中的时间走离,有利于参量放大转换效率的提高。 相似文献

We propose a new technique for phase matching high harmonic generation that can be used for generating bright, tabletop, tunable, and coherent x-ray sources at keV photon energies. A weak quasi-cw counterpropagating field induces a sinusoidal modulation in the phase of the emitted harmonics that can be used for correcting the large plasma-induced phase mismatch. We develop an analytical model that describes this grating-assisted x-ray phase matching and predicts that very modest intensities (<10(10) W/cm2) of quasi-cw counterpropagating fields are required for implementation. 相似文献

We investigate the optical Rabi oscillations in a dual-mode slab waveguide that undergoes a spatial–temporal refractive index modulation. Frequency conversion is induced during Rabi oscillations since dynamic modulation is employed. We also show that the contrast of Rabi oscillations can be controlled by the initial phase of dynamic modulation, which can be tuned arbitrarily from zero to unity as the phase varies. The contrast of zero corresponds to the dynamic supermodes and unity refers to complete Rabi oscillations. It suggests that the phase can be a new degree of freedom to control optical Rabi oscillations. This study may find applications in optical sensors, switches and mode converters. 相似文献

We report a detailed study of multiple wavelengths optical parametric generation in a single grating one-dimensional periodically poled lithium tantalate crystal. Simultaneous collinear and non-collinear generations are observed around the pump collinear direction. Similar spectra are found in continuous spatial positions symmetrical to the collinear direction, with decreasing signal and increasing idler wavelengths, associated with decreasing powers when the far-field angle increases. A phase matching scheme is proposed to describe these interactions. Numerical simulations emphasize the agreement of our phase matching scheme with the experimental results. Single-pass gain and high pump power density are very likely at the origin of the simultaneous collinear and non-collinear QPM interactions. 相似文献

In free-space optical communication links, atmospheric turbulence causes fluctuations in both the intensity and the phase
of the received light signal, impairing link performance. In this paper, we describe several communication techniques to mitigate
turbulence-induced intensity fluctuations, i.e., signal fading. These techniques are applicable in the regime in which the
receiver aperture is smaller than the correlation length of the fading, and the observation interval is shorter than the correlation
time of the fading. We assume that the receiver has no knowledge of the instantaneous fading state. The techniques we consider
are based on the statistical properties of fading, as functions of both temporal and spatial coordinates. Our approaches can
be divided into two categories: temporal domain techniques and spatial domain techniques. In the spatial domain techniques,
one must employ at least two receivers to collect the signal light at different positions or from different spatial angles.
Spatial diversity reception with multiple receivers can be used to overcome turbulence-induced fading. When it is not possible
to place the receivers sufficiently far apart, the fading at different receivers is correlated, reducing the diversity gain.
We describe a ML detection technique to reduce the diversity gain penalty caused by such fading correlation. In the temporal
domain techniques, one employs a single receiver. When the receiver knows only the marginal statistics of the fading, a symbol-by-symbol
ML detector can be used to optimize performance. When the receiver also knows the temporal correlation of the fading, maximum-likelihood
sequence detection (MLSD) can be employed, yielding a further performance improvement, but at the cost of very high complexity.
We describe two reduced-complexity implementations of the MLSD, which make use of a single-step Markov chain model for the
fading correlation in conjunction with per-survivor processing. Next, we also investigate the performance of using error-control
coding and pilot symbol-assisted detection schemes through atmospheric turbulence channels. 相似文献
