Exploration of the sum of flexoelectric coef ficients of nematic liquid crystals

We present a theoretical calculation of the dependence of reflectivity Rpp of the improved fully leaky waveguide geometry,which comprises pyramid,matching fluid,and strongly anchored hybrid aligned nematic liquid crystal(NLC) cell on the internal angle.The calculation is based on the multi layer optical theory and the elastic theory of liquid crystals.For different sums of flexoelectric coefficients e11 and e33,the curve of Rpp moves a distance to the left or the right relative to the case of ignoring the flexoelectric effect and the distance of the movement varies with different flexoelectric coefficients.Consequently,the sum of flexoelectric coefficients can be explored by measuring the distance of the movement.     

Enhancement of upconversion luminescence of YAlO3:Er3+ by Gd3+ doping

The upconversion luminescences of YAlO3:Er3+ phosphor co-doping with different Gd3+ concentrations are investigated under the excitation of 980- and 532-nm diode lasers. A near ultraviolet upconversion emission at 410 nm is observed in YAlO3 under 532-nm excitation. Moreover, the inactive Gd3+ ions can improve the upconversion intensity efficiently in a certain range of concentration. Under 980-nm excitation, the visible upconversion emissions at 546 and 646 nm are enhanced by about 10 and 8 times at the Gd3+ concentration of 40%, respectively. The upconversion emission at 410 nm under 532-nm excitation is also enhanced by 7 times. The substitution of Gd3+ ions for Y3+ sites changes the local symmetry of Er3+, leading to the improvement of upconversion efficiency.     

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.     

Experimental study on the 1.94-μm laser performance of c-Cut Tm:YAP crystal with various doping concentration

The influence of the thulium ion concentration on the 1.94-??m laser performance of c-cut Tm:YAP crystal was investigated in this paper. Three crystals with 3, 4, and 5% Tm³⁺ (atom concentration) were examined at 18°C. Our experimental results showed that, the best power performance was obtained with the 4% Tm:YAP crystal. By using 24.8 W of incident pump power at 795 nm, a maximum of 7.5 W of output power was obtained. The slope efficiency was 48.8%, corresponding to diode-to-Tm conversion efficiency of 30.2%.

为实现凝视卫星高分跟踪成像,设计了数字域时间延迟积分(TDI)互补金属氧化物半导体(CMOS)传感器在凝视姿态下的成像匹配模型,推导了卫星凝视跟踪成像时相对轨道坐标系的姿态变化,采用坐标变换方法实时计算其在凝视过程中随姿态变化的行转移时间,利用蒙特卡罗方法统计计算了凝视模式下姿态指向精度和稳定度对成像的影响。利用数字域TDI CMOS原理样机和小卫星姿态控制系统全物理仿真平台对成像进行了仿真分析。结果表明,卫星的姿态控制精度在成像过程中会引起纵向的像移速度失配和横向匹配的残余像移,成像积分级数越高,图像信噪比越大。积分级数的增加对卫星姿态提出较高要求,仿真平台姿态角和姿态角速度控制精度分别优于0.05°,0.005°/s时,采用积分级数为48级能较好地满足成像质量要求。

Manganese doping effects on interband electronic transitions,lattice vibrations,and dielectric functions of perovskite-type Ba<Subscript>0.4</Subscript>Sr<Subscript>0.6</Subscript>TiO<Subscript>3</Subscript> ferroelectric ceramics

The Ba_0.4Sr_0.6−x Mn _x TiO₃ (BSMT) ceramics with different Mn composition (from 1% to 10%) have been prepared via the conventional solid-state reaction sintering. The X-ray diffraction analysis shows that the ceramics are polycrystalline with the single perovskite phase. The lattice vibrations and optical properties have been investigated using Raman scattering, spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE), and infrared reflectance spectra. It was found that the optical bandgap for the BSMT ceramics is varied between 3.40 and 3.65 eV. The three first-order Raman-active phonon modes can be observed, and the frequency of the A ₁(LO₃)/E(LO) mode shows a blue shift of 8 cm⁻¹ with the Mn composition, which can be attributed to the distortion of the TiO₆ octahedron. With increasing Mn composition, the frequency of the infrared-active TO₄ mode decreases from 532 to 520 cm⁻¹, owing to the local variation of the lattice constant induced by the Mn incorporation. Moreover, the optical functions of the ceramics from the far-infrared to ultraviolet region are obtained based on the SE and reflectance spectra, which is useful for the potential applications in ferroelectric-based optoelectronic devices.     

Dark pulse generation in a dispersion-managed fiber laser

We report an experimental observation of dark pulse generation in a dispersion-managed erbium-doped fiber laser with net anomalous cavity group-velocity dispersion. It is found that apart from the bright soliton pulses, dark pulses with spectral sidebands could be obtained in the laser under appropriate operating conditions. The generation of dark pulses may be attributed to soliton shaping in the cavity.
