Fabrication of lithium niobate metasurfaces via a combination of FIB and ICP-RIE

Lithium niobate (LN) metasurfaces have emerged as a new platform for manipulating electromagnetic waves. Here, we report a fabrication technique for LN nano-grating metasurfaces by combining focused ion beam(FIB) milling with inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching(ICP-RIE). Steep sidewalls with angles larger than 80° are achieved. Sharp quasi-bound states in the continuum are observed from our metasurfaces. The measured transmission spectra show good agreement with the numerical simulat...

Group Velocity Reduction of Light Pulses in Photorefractive Two-Wave Mixing

We show theoretically that the group velocity of light pulses can be reduced significantly by use of the steep dispersion properties of the phase coupling effect in the photorefractive two-wave mixing process. The group velocity of light pulses of the order of 0.1 m/s can be achieved in typical photorefractive BSO crystals with an appropriate externally applied electric field and moving gratings of appropriate speeds. It is also shown that the slowly propagating light pulses can be set to be amplified after passing through the photorefractive material.

本文简介了掺锆铌酸锂系列晶体的研究进展,包括单掺锆铌酸锂、锆铁双掺铌酸锂、锆铁锰及锆铜铈三掺铌酸锂。掺锆铌酸锂晶体不但在可见波段具有远优于掺镁铌酸锂的抗光损伤能力,即使在近紫外波段,也拥有其它掺杂晶体所不具备的抗光损伤性能。锆铁双掺铌酸锂晶体兼有高光折变灵敏度和高光折变衍射效率的性质。锆铁锰和锆铜铈三掺铌酸锂晶体不但能够实现非挥发存储,其光折变响应速度及灵敏度都较铁锰和铜铈双掺晶体有大幅提高。这些实验结果表明,掺锆铌酸锂有望成为出色的非线性光学晶体。     

Photo-Induced Carriers in Near-Stoichiometric LiNbO3：Fe Crystal

We detect the photo-induced carriers in near-stoichiometric iron doped LiNbO3 crystal by the holographic technique. The results show that the dominant carriers are electrons in the sample with Li/Nb ratio of 0.9988. By analysis of the OH^- absorption spectra of the crystal, we contribute the electron domination in near-stoichiometric Fe-doped LiNbO3 crystal to the existence of NbLi which provides the anti-site defect to Fe^2＋.     

Transition from Backscattering Speckles to Phase Conjugation in LiNbO3：Fe

We investigate the backscattering for converging beams in iron-doped lithium niobate crystals. Due to the nonlinear properties of the crystal, backscattering exhibits temporally fluctuating speckles that make a transition to the phase conjugate of the incident beam under certain circumstances. Our observation seems to point to a new kind of self-pumped phase conjugation in photorefractive media.     

Luminescent Enhancement in Mg- and Er-Codoped LiNbO3 Crystals

We investigate the MgO codoping-induced effect on the luminescent properties of Er^3 -doped and Er/Mg codoped LiNbO3 crystals. The emission and excitation spectra and the absorption spectra are measured. The results show that the luminescent behaviour of Er^3 ions is very sensitive to the codoping of Mg^2 ions. According to the photorefractive level theory, we propose a quench model for the Er/Mg codoped lithium niobate crystal. The quench centres are suggested to be the bipolaron (NbLi-NbNb), we attribute the luminescent enhancement to the decreasing concentration of these centres. The luminescent enhancement effect is successfully explained.
