Influence of laser mode on splitting beam illumination effect of Dammann grating

The influences of various laser modes on the splitting beam effect of Dammann grating are studied in theory and by numerical simulation. The results show that fundamental mode laser resembles plane wave while high order mode laser differs from plane wave in the splitting beam effect by Dammann grating. Therefore, the fundamental mode laser is more suitable to be the light source to improve the energy efficiency in far-distance image detecting systems, such as laser image ladar, which use Dammann grating in the ilhlmination svstem.

Spectroscopic properties of thulium ions in bismuth silicate glass

A new type of bismuth silicate glass (Bi2O3-SiO2-ZnO-Al2O3-La2O3) doped with Tm2O3 is prepared by melt-quenching method. The thermal stability of the glass is examined by differential scanning calorimetry. No crystallization peak is found. Using the absorption and emission spectra, the absorption and emission cross-sections are calculated. Their maximum data are 2.9×10-21cm2 at 1663 nm and 4.7×10-21cm2 at 1826 nm, respectively. Using the Judd-Ofelt theory, the radiation transition probabilities and radiative lifetimes are obtained. The extended overlap integral method is applied to analyze energy transfer process among the Tm3+ ions. The transfer constants of cross-relaxation and energy migration among the Tm3+ ions at the 3H4 level are 7.60×10-40 and 14.98×10-40 cm6 /s, respectively. The critical transfer radius for cross-relaxation is 0.99 nm. The cross relaxation process is easy to realize and is favorable for obtaining ～2-μm laser.

Soliton propagation optimization and dynamic modulation in photonic crystal waveguide with polystyrene background

Bright optical soliton propagation properties near the left band edge of photonic crystal waveguide (PCW) are numerically investigated. Compared with the normal PCW with air background, by employing polystyrene as PCW background and adjusting the structure parameters simultaneously, the required soliton peak power sharply decreases from 8.63 × 10⁶ W/m to 9.98 × 10² W/m. The influence of optical loss on soliton propagation is numerically investigated. The dynamic modulation of the soliton propagation in PCW is realized, and a modulation range of 459 nm wavelength for the soliton transmission has been achieved. Simulation results show that the transmission wavelength, required soliton peak power and delay time decrease almost linearly as the external modulated voltage increases; the modulation sensitivities are 8.316 nm/V, 3.416 W/m/V and 16.6 ps/V, respectively.     

High-bandwidth and low-loss photonic crystal power-splitter with parallel output based on the integration of Y-junction and waveguide bends

A 1×2 power-splitter with parallel output that exhibits high-bandwidth and low-loss splitting for TE-polarized light is designed based on a photonic crystal slab in a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) material. The high performance is achieved by the integration of a Y-junction and 60° waveguide bends, which is designed to ensure single-mode operation, and keep the output channels of the power-splitter be parallel to the input channel. With a three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (3D-FDTD) technique, ultralow-loss output of the optimized power-splitter with normalized transmission above 45% (in the range 3.216±0.18 dB) is obtained in the high-bandwidth range 1472–1634 nm, which covers the entire C-band of optical communication. In addition, the simulation results demonstrate that when the manufacture error of the lattice shift (dx) is in the range of ±10 nm, the disturbance of the transmission and the bandwidth are 1.52% and 6.79%, respectively. Both the specific result and the general idea of integration design are promising in the optical integrated circuit (OIC) and integrated optical devices in the future.     

Ionic liquid-assisted hydrothermal synthesis of dendrite-like NaY(MoO4)2:Tb phosphor

Micro-sized NaY(MoO₄)₂:Tb³⁺ phosphors with dendritic morphology was synthesized by a ionic liquid-assisted hydrothermal process. X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicated that the as-prepared product is pure tetragonal phase of NaY(MoO₄)₂. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) images showed that the as-prepared NaY(MoO₄)₂:Tb³⁺ phosphors have dendritic morphology. The photoluminescent (PL) spectra displayed that the as-prepared NaY(MoO₄)₂:Tb³⁺ phosphors show a stronger green emission with main emission wavelength 545 nm corresponding to the ⁵D₄→⁷F₅ transition of Tb³⁺ ion, and the optimal Tb³⁺ doping concentration for obtaining maximum emission intensity was confirmed to be 10 mol%. Based on Van Uitert's and Dexter's models the electric dipole–dipole (D–D) interaction was confirmed to be responsible for the concentration quenching of ⁵D₄ fluorescence of Tb³⁺ in the NaY(MoO₄)₂:Tb³⁺ phosphors. The intrinsic radiative transition lifetime of ⁵D₄ level is found to be 0.703 ms.     

Metal enhanced photoluminescence of near-infrared CdTexSe1−x quantum dots

High-quality alloyed near-infrared CdTe_xSe_1?x quantum dots were synthesized by a modified organometallic method. The emission wavelength of the alloyed quantum dots were turned from visible to near-infrared range by changing the composition of the precursor. The photoluminescence intensity of the alloyed quantum dots was further enhanced by coupling through localized surface plasmons from Au nanoparticles. The alloyed CdTeSe quantum dots coupled with Au nanoparticles exhibited a 4 times photoluminescence enhancement than that of bare CdTeSe quantum dots by turning the localized surface plasmons resonant absorption of Au nanoparticles consistent to the excitation wavelength. This method will be beneficial for the potential applications in the biological imaging and detection.
