Distortion of optical feedback signals in microchip Nd:YAG lasers subjected to external multi-beam interference feedback

This paper proposes a theoretical analysis for the characteristics of an external cavity Nd:YAG laser with feedback of multiple-beam interference, which is induced by the multi-reentrance of the light from the external Fabry--Perot cavity. The theoretical model considers the multiple beam interference of the external Fabry--Perot cavity. It is found that the optical feedback signals are distorted to pulse waveforms instead of the sinusoidal ones in conventional feedback. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical analysis. The obtained theoretical and experimental results can advance the development of a laser feedback interferometer.

基于遗传LM算法的涂层目标光谱偏振BRDF建模分析

通过比较测量方法测量得到绿漆涂层木板探测目标在400～720 nm的光谱偏振二向反射分布函数值,从获得的户外试验测量数据入手,分析与探测角、波长之间的关系,通过有限探测条件得到的光谱偏振二向反射分布函数值(BRDF)建立光谱偏振BRDF模型,来描述探测目标的偏振二向反射特性。其中利用基于小面元的模型建立光谱偏振BRDF模型,利用遗传算法和Levenberg-Marquardt(LM)算法相结合的优化算法来获得非线性模型参数。仿真实验结果表明采用的遗传LM优化算法具有较好的性能,能较快较准确得到非线性的模型参数。真实实验数据证明了基于小面元模型的正确性,表明光谱偏振二向反射分布函数建模方法结果的可靠性。最后与绿漆涂层铁板目标的模型反演参数进行比较得出：2种不同材质、相同颜色涂层的目标,具有较为接近的折射率,其较小差别可以理解为由涂层的厚度、均匀程度的不同导致,而非不同的材质所引起。     

太赫兹GaAs肖特基混频二极管高频特性分析

在太赫兹波段,存在几种新的高频效应会限制混频二极管的高频特性.应用热电子发射理论和隧道理论,研究了外延层肖特基二极管的高频特性,并以截止频率为品质因数对二极管进行优化设计.研究表明,当二极管工作频率大于等离子频率时,二极管相当于一个电容,失去了混频性能;提高基底掺杂浓度可以减小基底等离子共振效应;外延层等离子频率非常重要并且在研究外延层等离子共振效应时必须考虑传输时间效应;减小阳极直径、减小外延层厚度、提高外延层掺杂浓度可以提高二极管的工作频率.这对太赫兹波段室温混频器件的研制具有重要的参考价值.     

Effects of oxygen vacancy location on the electronic structure and spin density of Co-doped rutile TiO2 dilute magnetic semiconductors

According to density functional theory （DFT） using the plane wave base and pseudo-potential, we investigate the effects of the specific location of oxygen vacancy （Vo） in a （Ti,Co）06 distorted octahedron on the spin density and magnetic properties of Co-doped rutile Ti02 dilute magnetic semiconductors. Our calculations suggest that the Vo location has a significant influence on the magnetic moment of individual Co cations. In the case where two Co atoms are separated far away from each other, when the Vo is located at the equatorial site of a Co-contained octahedron, the ground state of the two Co cations is d6（t3g↑, t23g ↓） without any magnetic moment. However, if the Vo is located at the apical site, these two Co sites have different ground states and magnetic moments. The spin densities are also observed to be modified by the exchange coupling between the Co cations and the location of Vo. Some positive spin polarization is induced around the adjacent O ions.     

Azimuthal anchoring of a nematic liquid crystal on a grooved interface with anisotropic polar anchoring

Zhang Y J et al.[Zhang Y J,Zhang Z D,Zhu L Z and Xuan L 2011 Liquid Cryst.38 355] investigated the effects of finite polar anchoring on the azimuthal anchoring energy at a grooved interface,in which polar anchoring was isotropic in the local tangent plane of the surface.In this paper,we investigate the effects of both isotropic and anisotropic polar anchoring on the surface anchoring energy in the frame of Fukuda et al.’s theory.The results show that anisotropic polar anchoring strengthens the azimuthal anchoring of grooved surfaces.In the one-elastic-constant approximation(K11 = K22 = K33 = K),the surface-groove-induced azimuthal anchoring energy is entirely consistent with the result of Faetti,and it reduces to the original result of Berreman with an increase in polar anchoring.Moreover,the contribution of the surface-like elastic term to the Rapini-Papoular anchoring energy is zero.     

Effect of initial-state target polarization on single ionization of helium by 1-keV electron impact

We report new results of triple differential cross sections for the single ionization of helium by 1-KeV electron impact at the ejection energy of 10 eV. Investigations have been made for both the perpendicular plane and the plane perpendicular to the momentum transfer geometries. The present calculation is based on the three-Coulomb wave function. Here we have also incorporated the effect of target polarization in the initial state. A comparison is made between the present calculation with the results of other theoretical methods and a recent experiment [D黵r M, Dimopoulou C, Najjari B, Dorn A, Bartschat K, Bray I, Fursa D V, Chen Z, Madison D H and Ullrich J 2008 Phys. Rev. A 77 032717]. At an impact energy of 1 KeV, the target polarization is found to induce a substantial change of the cross section for the ionization process. We observe that the effect of target polarization plays a dominant role in deciding the shape of triple differential cross sections.     

High-power high-stability Q-switched green laser with intracavity frequency doubling of diode-pumped composite ceramic Nd:YAG laser

We successfully obtain high-average-power high-stability Q-switched green laser based on diode-side-pumped composite ceramic Nd:YAG in a straight plano-concave cavity. The temperature distribution in composite ceramic Nd:YAG crystal is numerically analyzed and compared with that of conventional Nd:YAG crystal. By use of a composite ceramic Nd:YAG rod and a type-II high gray track resistance KTP (HGTR-KTP) crystal, a green laser with an average output power of 165 W is obtained at a repetition rate of 25 kHz, with a diode-to-green optical conversion of 14.68%, and a pulse width of 162 ns. To the best of our knowledge, both the output power and optical-to-optical efficiency are the highest values for green laser systems with intracavity frequency doubling of this novel composite ceramic Nd:YAG laser to date. The power fluctuation at around 160 W is lower than 0.3% in 2.5 hours.     

Investigation of ultrafast dynamics of CdTe quantum dots by femtosecond fluorescence up-conversion spectroscopy

The ultrafast carrier relaxation processes in CdTe quantum dots are investigated by femtosecond fluorescence upconversion spectroscopy.Photo-excited hole relaxing to the edge of the forbidden gap takes a maximal time of ～ 1.6 ps with exciting at 400 nm,depending on the state of the photo-excited hole.The shallow trapped states and deep trap states in the forbidden gap are confirmed for CdTe quantum dots.In addition,Auger relaxation of trapped carriers is observed to occur with a time constant of ～ 5 ps.A schematic model of photodynamics is established based on the results of the spectroscopy studies.Our work demonstrates that femtosecond fluorescence up-conversion spectroscopy is a suitable and effective tool in studying the transportation and conversion dynamics of photon energy in a nanosystem.
