太湖梅梁湾水下光场扰动的特征分析

在水体表面波的扰动作用下,水下光场随深度呈现较为明显的波动现象,且水中光合作用会对水下光场波动作出响应,因而此现象引起了广泛的关注。基于太湖梅梁湾观测的水下光场数据,计算了水下光场随深度的变化,并分析了其波动特征。结果表明:表面波引起了水下光场较为明显的波动现象,波动振幅最大的深度基本小于20 cm,远小于海洋中对应的深度;水下光场波动的振幅随深度呈e的负指数衰减,漫射消光系数越大,水下光场的波动衰减得也越快;当深度大于30 cm时,水下光场的扰动现象基本消失。还计算了船舶对水下光场观测的影响,发现直射光未被遮挡的情况下,漫射比例越高,其相对误差越大。     

基于光谱线性拟合的宽波段光源波动补偿方法

宽波段光源在工作过程中,光强通常会随供电电源输出功率的变化而波动。宽波段光源波段内各个波长的光谱强度将会发生不同程度的波动。为解决光源光强波动时其波段内各个波长光谱强度的补偿问题,提出了一种基于光谱线性拟合的补偿方法。使用这种方法,只需测量光源波段光强的变化,就可以补偿各个波长光谱强度的波动。通过分析理想黑体全波段辐射出射度与光谱辐射出射度的近似线性关系。建立了宽波段光源波段光强与光谱强度的线性模型。实验装置主要由卤素灯珠、光源电源、光阑、光谱仪及计算机构成。调节电源的输出功率,得到一组卤素灯珠在不同输入功率下的相对光谱强度。测量不同功率下卤素灯珠光谱强度来验证该方法补偿效果。按线性关系拟合了卤素灯珠光谱强度与其波段光强关系式,并分析了拟合误差。实验表明：卤素灯珠的光谱强度与其波段光强具有很好的线性关系,可以用波段光强按线性关系来补偿其光谱强度的波动。随着卤素灯珠输入功率的增大,补偿后的光谱强度的相对误差绝对值下降。在卤素灯珠输入功率范围内,使用该方法补偿的光谱强度在绝大部分(92%)波长下相对误差绝对值可在5%以内。

拉曼高光谱成像系统中光在奶粉层的穿透深度研究

拉曼高光谱成像技术不仅可以获取样本的空间分布信息,图像上每个像素点还包括了完整的光谱信息,因其信息量丰富的特点已在食品安全检测方面得到了应用。本研究探索拉曼高光谱成像系统中光在奶粉层中的穿透深度,以及采集参数和奶粉类型对穿透深度的影响。实验选取均匀奶粉层样品放置于厚度为5 mm的三聚氰胺样本之上,检测奶粉层厚度为0.8～4.0 mm时的三聚氰胺特征峰强度,以此评估光在奶粉层中的穿透性和信号衰减情况。结果显示当奶粉层厚度一定时,随着激光功率变大,拉曼特征峰值随之增加,此外更长的曝光时间也可以使拉曼信号得到增强。在激光功率不小于2 W且曝光时间不小于500 ms时,光在全脂奶粉层的穿透深度可达4 mm。奶粉层厚度在0.8～4.0 mm范围内,穿透奶粉层的拉曼信号随着奶粉层厚度增加呈指数式衰减。在激光功率为8 W、曝光时间为1 000 ms的条件下,光在全脂、低脂和脱脂奶粉层的穿透深度均达到了4 mm。在相同测量厚度下,通过脱脂奶粉层接收的拉曼信号弱于通过全脂和低脂奶粉层接收的拉曼信号强度。研究结果为拉曼高光谱检测中奶粉样品的前处理提供了有益参考。     

Feedback method of the noise suppression in wave-mixing amplifiers based on non-linear materials with photorefractive response in a reflection grating configuration

In the photorefractive wave-mixing system, fluctuation in the signal beam intensity of the photorefractive output with a reflection grating has been analyzed by employing pump feedback method. In this method, fluctuations of the photorefractive wave-mixing process not only induce the intensity fluctuation of the mixing waves but also induce phase fluctuation of the mixing waves. Thus, the phase of the pump and signal beams at the output surface fluctuates in time around a mean value. Using such a positive feedback method of a pump beams, the relative fluctuation in the photorefractive output signal beam intensity with respect to its mean intensity can be minimized significantly without reducing its mean intensity. The factors that control the fluctuation in the signal beam intensity, such as the phase fluctuation of the output pump beam, absorption strength of the material and the feedback reflectivity of the cavity mirrors, on the relative fluctuation of the output signal intensity in the photorefractive wave-mixing systems have been studied in detail. It has been found that the fluctuation of the output signal intensity relative to its mean intensity in the photorefractive wave-mixing system can be suppressed to larger extent by taking lower value of feedback reflectivity of the cavity mirrors which could exist at a higher value of absorption strength of the photorefractive materials.

为了研究高斯光束在湍流等离子体鞘套中的传输特性,根据广义惠更斯-菲涅耳原理,采用基于快速傅里叶变换的功率谱反演法,用多随机相位屏来模拟湍流带来的影响.根据超声速飞行器绕流等离子体流场厚度在厘米级别的特点,光束在两个相位屏之间的传输过程中采用菲涅耳衍射积分的两次快速傅里叶变换算法(double fast Fourier transform algorithm),利用多随机相位屏模拟等离子体鞘套湍流对光束传输产生的影响,解决了多随机相位屏模拟湍流研究中的超短距离传输问题.当飞行高度为45 km,飞行速度为18马赫时,通过对超声速飞行器绕流等离子体流场的统计分析,发现在此飞行条件下折射率起伏方差的强度范围10~(–11)—10~(–14).对高斯光束在湍流等离子体流场中的传输特性进行了数值仿真.结果表明:在等离子体鞘套湍流中折射率起伏强度、波长、传输距离等都是影响高斯光束质量的重要因素.折射率方差越大,传输距离越长,光斑弥散越严重,光强起伏越大,光强减弱也越明显.光束的波长越长,高斯光束抑制湍流的能力越强,光斑弥散程度越小,光强起伏也越小.     

皮肤组织容积脉搏波400~1000 nm光谱特性仿真研究

根据皮肤组织解剖结构特性建立了六层层状模型,并给出了皮肤组织各层的特性参数;考虑了氧合血红蛋白和还原血红蛋白的吸收特性,依据皮肤组织各层的水、血、脂肪、血氧饱和度含量以及血管大小给出了皮肤组织各层的光谱吸收系数;对不同波长散射系数做了适当简化,给出了皮肤组织各层的光谱散射系数。利用蒙特卡罗方法仿真血管组织在收缩与舒张两种状态下, 400~1 000 nm波长光在皮肤组织多层模型中的传输过程,并通过统计大量光子的分布特性,获得了皮肤组织光谱反射系数,并利用模拟所得的两种状态下的反射系数计算得到了光谱容积脉搏波幅度。仿真结果表明,当入射光强一定时,绿光的容积脉搏波幅度优于红光和蓝光。通过计算不同波长光沿皮肤组织深度方向光能流率衰减为1/e时对应的皮肤组织深度,获得了皮肤组织光谱穿透深度。结果显示,血管舒张状态下蓝光和绿光的穿透深度较小,蓝光大部分只能达到表皮层,绿光能到达微循环层,红光可直达真皮层。考虑到光在皮肤组织中传播包含了一个从收缩到舒张的动态过程,基于此,根据穿透深度定义了脉搏波信号产生深度,利用血管舒张与收缩两种不同状态下的穿透深度计算得到了光谱产生深度。结果表明,不同波长光产生深度大于其穿透深度,蓝光产生深度较浅,且其受到的血液吸收调制较小,因而其获得的脉搏信号易受噪声干扰;红光的容积脉搏波产生深度较大,但是相比于绿光其受血液吸收调制较小,且绿光产生深度足够达到真皮血管层,因而红光容积脉搏波的幅度小于绿光。上述仿真结果明确了皮肤组织部分光谱特性,为皮肤组织多光谱容积脉搏波的精确获取及其他相关研究提供了一定的理论基础。     

Diffraction of light by ultrasound under the conditions of Fresnel reflection

The features of the Bragg diffraction of light by ultrasound under the conditions of Fresnel reflection from the boundaries of a perturbed layer have been investigated. It has been shown that layers based on acousto-optical gyrotropic crystals perturbed by ultrasound can be used as efficient light modulators. The relative intensities of diffracted waves have been found to be determined by the relation of the refractive indices of adjacent media and by the ultrasound intensity. With an increase in the thickness of the modulated layer, the reflection and transmission coefficients of the first-order diffracted waves achieve their maxima at a lower ultrasound intensity.

A novel fiber Bragg grating interrogating sensor system based on AWG demultiplexing

A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) interrogating technique based on the relative intensity-demodulating and the demultiplexing of an arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) is presented in this paper. The analytical simulation and the experiment validate the feasibility of this setup. Both theoretical and experiment results show that the shift of the Bragg wavelength of the FBG sensors can be precisely interrogated by the relative intensity reading of two-adjacent-channels of the AWG-based demultiplexer. Errors caused by the light source fluctuation and micro-band losses can be reduced with the relative technique. This technique potentially offers a low-cost, compact, and high-performance solution for the interrogation of FBG distributed sensors.     

Numerical and experimental study of excited light and auto-fluorescence diffusion in teeth

Excited light and corresponding intrinsic fluorescence diffusion inside teeth tissue are an essential problem for light-based carious lesion detection. Based on finite element numerical analysis of diffusion equation, the photon density distribution of both excited light and autofluorescence of 2D premolar teeth model is obtained. The dependence of excited light and autofluorescence density distribution inside the teeth model on the scattering coefficient of enamel (5–25 mm⁻¹) and dentine (100–140 mm⁻¹) is numerically simulated and analyzed. The fitted results reveal that fluorescence intensity decreases exponentially. Optical penetration depth and fluorescence relative depth declined with the increment of scattering coefficient of enamel. And the dentine had the opposite effect. Finally, the experiment of measurement of fluorescence intensity on the teeth surface is conducted and the result is compared with the numerical computation.     

水下Co-60源切伦科夫辐射的蒙卡模拟

随着核应用领域的不断拓宽,放射源丢失事故发生的概率也随之增加。机载伽马谱仪可有效搜寻地面放射源,然而对于放射源丢失于水域的情况,由于伽马射线经由水层屏蔽后可探测性降低,故利用放射源在水中产生的切伦科夫辐射对其进行搜寻显得十分重要。采用MCNP与Geant4相结合的方法,以及在Geant4程序中采用接续计算技巧,对Co-60源在水中的切伦科夫光产生以及传输进行了计算,计算表明,切伦科夫光经水中传播后,主要波段在300~600 nm,强度呈由边缘到中心渐强的特征分布,分布范围大致与放射源在水中的深度一致,在水中传输300 m后其光通量约为100 cm^-2,可利用光谱特征和强度分布特征对其进行测量。

Fluctuation in the intensity of the output signal beam of a photorefractive optical resonator can be reduced significantly by employing pump beam positive feedback. The fractional intensity transfer which is independent of time in the absence of fluctuation becomes time dependent in the presence of fluctuation of the optical wave-mixing process. The influence of various controlling parameters on the relative fluctuation of the output signal intensity has also been studied.

Numerical simulation of four-wave mixing efficiency and its induced relative intensity noise

Four-wave mixing,as well as its induced intensity noise,is harmful to wavelength division multiplexing systems.The efficiency and the relative intensity noise of four-wave mixing are numerically simulated for the two-wave and the three-wave fiber transmissions.It is found that the efficiency decreases with the increase of both the frequency spacing and the fiber length,which can be explained using the quasi-phase-matching condition.Furthermore,the relative intensity noise decreases with the increase of frequency spacing,while it increases with the increase of fiber length,which is due to the considerable power loss of the pump light.This investigation presents a good reference for the practical application of wavelength division multiplexing systems.
