Stacking chirped pulse optical parametric amplification

Stacking chirped pulse optical parametric amplification based on a home-built Yb³⁺-doped mode-locked fiber laser and an all-fiber pulse stacker has been demonstrated. Energic 11 mJ shaped pulses with pulse duration of 2.3 ns and a net total gain of higher than 1.1 × 10⁷ at fluctuation less than 2% rms are achieved by optical parametric amplification pumped by a Q-switched Nd:YAG frequency-doubled laser, which provides a simple and efficient amplification scheme for temporally shaped pulses by stacking chirped pulse.     

Crystallization of Ge2Sb2Te5 phase—change optical disk media

In this paper, the crystallization behaviour of amorphous Ge₂Sb₂Te₅ thin films is investigated using differential scanning calorimetry), x-ray diffraction and optical transmissivity measurements. It is indicated that only the amorphous phase to face-centred-cubic phase transformation occurs during laser annealing of the normal phase-change structure, which is a benefit for raising the phase-change optical disk's carrier-to-noise ratio (CNR). For amorphous Ge₂Sb₂Te₅ thin films, the crystallization temperature is about 200℃ and the melting temperature is 546.87℃. The activation energy for the crystallization, E_a, is 2.25eV. The crystallization dynamics for Ge₂Sb₂Te₅ thin films obeys the law of nucleation and growth reaction. The sputtered Ge₂Sb₂Te₅ films were initialized by an initializer unit. The initialization conditions have a great effect on the reflectivity contrast of the Ge₂Sb₂Te₅ phase-change optical disk.     

A study on the short—wavelength and high—numerical—aperture phase—change recording

In this paper, we discuss the phase-change recording at a short-wavelength (514nm) and a high numerical aperture (0.85). Effects of recording power and pulse width on the size of the recording marks are studied. The minimum recording mark with a length of approximately 220nm has been observed. The capacity of about 17GB for a single-layer disc of a 12cm diameter can be obtained. The maximum carrier-to-noise ratio reaches 45dB at a writing power of 13--14mW.     

非双倍条件下极大奇异积分算子的估计

It is shown that the maximal singular integral operator with kernels satisfying Ho rmander＇s condition is of weak type （1,1） and L^p （1〈p〈∞） bounded without assuming that the underlying measure p is doubling. Under stronger smoothness conditions,such estimates can be obtained by using a Cotlar＇s inequality. This inequality is not applicable here and it is noticeable that the Cotlar＇s inequality maybe fails under Hormander＇s condition.     

Diode-end-pumped composite Nd:YVO4 yellow laser based on intracavity frequency-doubled self-Raman laser

We report an intracavity frequency-doubled Q-switched self-Raman yellow laser at 587 nm. A composite Nd:YVO₄ crystal was utilized as self-Raman gain medium. The maximum average output power of yellow light obtained was 1.5 W at the incident pump power of 30 W and at a repetition rate of 50 kHz, corresponding to the optical conversion efficiency of 5%. The shortest pulse width, the maximum pulse energy and the highest peak power were measured to be 5.8 ns, 46.7 μJ and 5.9 kW, respectively.

Ag-N共掺p型ZnO的第一性原理研究

采用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理赝势法对Ag-N共掺杂ZnO体 系以及间隙N和间隙H掺杂p型ZnO: (Ag, N)体系的缺陷形成能和离化能进行了研究. 结果表明, 在Ag_Zn和N_O所形成的众多受主复合体中, Ag_Zn-N_O受主对不仅具有较低的缺陷形成能同时其离化能也相对较小, 因此, Ag_Zn-N_O受主对的形成是Ag-N共掺ZnO体系实现p型导电的主要原因. 研究发现, 当ZnO: (Ag, N)体系有额外间隙N原子存在时, Ag_Zn-N_O受主对容易与N_i形成Ag_Zn-(N₂)_{m O}施主型缺陷, 该施主缺陷的形成降低了Ag-N共掺ZnO的掺杂效率因而不利于p型导电. 当间隙H引入到ZnO: (Ag, N)体系时, H_i易与Ag_Zn-N_O受主对形成 受主-施主-受主复合结构(Ag_Zn-H_i-N_O), 此复合体的形成不仅提高了Ag_Zn-N_O受主对在ZnO中的固溶度, 同时还能使其受主能级变得更浅而有利于p型导电. 因此, H辅助Ag-N共掺ZnO可能是一种有效的p型掺杂手段. 关键词： p型ZnO 缺陷形成能 受主离化能 第一性原理     

Design of thermo-optic tunable optical filter based on Si/Air DBR and polymer Fabry–Perot microcavity in SOI

An integrated tunable optical filter (TOF) based on thermo-optic effect in silicon on insulator (SOI) rib waveguide is designed and simulated. The device is comprised of two high refractivity contrast Si/Air stacks, functioning as high reflectivity of DBRs (distributed Bragg reflectors) and separating by a variable refractive index polymer Fabry–Perot (F–P) cavity. The designed device exhibits Q = 24077, FWHM = 0.065 nm and finesse = 566. Wavelength tuning is achieved through thermal modulation of refractive variation of the cavity. As the cavity polymer is heated, the refractive index of the cavity decreases. When the temperature of cavity polymer changes within 105, the central wavelength gets a continuous 35 nm shift from 1530 nm to 1565 nm, which can operate the whole C-band in the WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) networks. Moreover, by calculating, the tuning sensitivity is about 0.33 nm/°C. Owing to the compact size and excellent characteristics of integration, the proposed component has a promising utilization in spectroscopy and optical communication.     

Mode theory of three-layer cylindrical waveguides and its application to aurum(Au)/polystyrene(PS)-coated terahertz hollow waveguides

In this paper, we present a generic mode theory for the three-layer cylindrical waveguides consisting of three arbitrary material mediums. Based on derived eigenvalue equations of the TE, TM, and hybrid modes, the mode conditions of metal/dielectric-coated terahertz hollow waveguides are extracted. In addition, we quantitatively describe both the effective refractive indexes and the loss characteristics of the aurum/polystyrene-coated terahertz hollow waveguides operating at the TE₀₁, TM₀₁, and HE₁₁ modes. It is indicated that the loss coefficient of the TE₀₁ mode can be much lower than that of the TM₀₁, and HE₁₁ modes, and, especially, can tend to that of the terahertz wave in air. So the TE₀₁ mode is very significant for the hollow waveguides in term of low loss propagating of the terahertz wave. We expect these results to enable a variety of new long-distance THz applications in sensing, detecting and communicating.
