Study on optical electron polarimeter and measurement of the relative Stokes parameters of weak light

In this paper, we present the research on an optical electron polarimeter, which is used to determine the polarization of an incident electron beam by measuring the relative Stokes parameters of the fluorescence emitted from the He gas following the impact excitation with the electron beam. The fundamental theory of the optical electron polarimeter is discussed with the 3³P→2³S transition of He. The structure and performance of the instrument are described, which are different in some aspects from previous works. The arrangement of the experiment for measuring the relative Stokes parameters of linearly polarized weak light is also investigated, which actually involves the same processes as the polarization measurement with the incident electron beam. The results obtained are in agreement with the theoretical prediction.     

Thermoluminescence characteristics of rare-earth-doped LiCaBO3 phosphor

LiCaBO₃ was synthesized by high-temperature solid-state reaction. The influence of different rare earth dopants, i.e. Dy³⁺, Tb³⁺, Tm³⁺ and Ce³⁺, on thermoluminescence (TL) of LiCaBO₃ phosphor was discussed. We studied the TL properties and some dosimetric characteristics of Ce³⁺-activated LiCaBO₃ phosphor in detail. The effect of the concentration of Ce³⁺ on TL was investigated, the result of which showed that the optimum Ce³⁺ concentration was 1 mol%. The TL kinetic parameters of LiCaBO₃:0.01Ce³⁺ were studied by computer glow curve deconvolution (CGCD) method. The three-dimensional (3D) TL emission spectra were also studied, peaking at 431 and 474 nm due to the characteristic transition of Ce³⁺. We also studied the linearity, annealing condition, reproducibility, fading and different heating rate of the LiCaBO₃:0.01Ce³⁺ phosphor.

单重态氧发生器出口气流中水汽含量的光谱测量法

水汽的含量是化学法单重态氧发生器（ＳＯＧ）的重要性能参数之一，因为它不仅对Ｏ＿２（￣１△）有猝灭作用，而且在氧碘化学激光器（ＣＯＩＬ）光腔中对Ｉ￣＊也有严重猝灭作用。因此测控ＳＯＧ出口处的水汽含量有重要意义。本实验采用光谱强度比较法测量ＳＯＧ中的水汽含量，利用ＯＭＡ－３的二维扫描积累功能，可对不同测点的光谱进行同时扫描积累，从而可以对ＳＯＧ的数个测点同时进行水汽含量测定。测试精度可达±１０％。

Characteristics of deep penetration laser welding of dissimilar metal Ni-based cast superalloy K418 and alloy steel 42CrMo

Experimental trials of autogenous deep penetration welding between dissimilar cast Ni-based superalloy K418 and alloy steel 42CrMo flat plates with 5.0 mm thickness were conducted using a 3 kW continuous wave (CW) Nd:YAG laser. The influences of laser output power, welding velocity and defocusing distance on the morphology, welding depth and width as well as quality of the welded seam were investigated. Results show that full keyhole welding is not formed on both K418 and 42CrMo side, simultaneously, due to the relatively low output power. Partial fusion is observed on the welded seam near 42CrMo side because of the large disparity of thermal–physical and high-temperature mechanical properties of these two materials. The microhardness of the laser-welded joint was also examined and analyzed. It is suggested that applying negative defocusing in the range of Raylei length can increase the welding depth and improve the coupling efficiency of the laser materials interaction.     

Highly efficient excitation of LP_(01) mode in ring-core fibers by tapering for optimizing OAM generation

We have demonstrated the highly efficient excitation of the linearly polarized mode(LP01)in ring-core fibers(RCFs)by tapering the spliced point between the RCF and the standard single-mode fiber(SMF)to optimize all-fiber orbital angular momentum(OAM)generation.The tapering technique has been investigated theoretically and experimentally.Before tapering,only 50%of light can be coupled from SMFs to RCFs.The modal interference spectrum with an extinction ratio(ER)of～9 dB is observed,showing that higher-order modes are excited in RCF.By tapering the spliced point,90%of light is coupled,and the ER is minimized to be～2 dB,indicating that the higher-order modes are effectively suppressed by tapering.Such tapered spliced points of RCF–SMF are further applied for all-fiber OAM generation.The efficiencies of OAM+1 and OAM?1 generation are found to be enhanced by approximately 11.66%and 12.41%,respectively,showing that the tapered spliced point of the RCF–SMF is a feasible way to optimize OAM generation.
