Intracavity phase interferometry: frequency combs sensor inside a laser cavity

In traditional interferometric measurements, a physical quantity that changes the phase of a resonator is monitored through a change of its transmission. Interferometry inside a laser exploits the ultimate Q‐factor of that resonator, and converts the phase to be measured into a frequency. A mode‐locked laser with two intracavity pulses emits two frequency combs of the same repetition rate. The quantity to be measured (a sub‐nano displacement, a nonlinear index, an acceleration or rotation, a magnetic or electric field) produces a minute phase change ( rad) in one of the two intracavity pulses, which is converted into a frequency, measured by beating the two pulse trains emitted by the laser. This paper presents methods of operating mode‐locked lasers in which two independent pulses circulate, producing two frequency combs of the same repetition rate. Various examples of physical quantities that can be measured through this technique are presented.     

光纤加速度传感器研究进展

光纤加速度传感器与传统加速度传感器相比，不但能抗电磁干扰，而且体小、质轻、动态范围宽、精度高、能在恶劣环境下工作，因此受到各先进国家军事与商业领域的极大重视，各种实用的光纤加速度传感器不断涌现。主要有光强调制型和相位调制型两大类。光强调制式有反射式、透射式和偏振式等等。相位调制式有Ｍａｃｈ－Ｚｅｎｄｅｒ干涉仪、Ｍｉｃｈｅｌｓｏｎ干涉仪和Ｆａｂｒｙ－Ｐｅｒｏｔ干涉仪。有一维的，也有二维的；有与水听器组合在一起的，也有与光纤陀螺仪组合的光纤加速度传感器。最小的已经做到２．５ｃｍ长，直径仅０．２５ｍｍ；测量精度已能达到１μｇ；共振频率可达到１０ｋＨｚ。为了克服温度不稳定性对测量精度的影响，人们采用了３×３耦合器解调法，双光路法，由单臂式改成推挽式等。一旦关键技术得以克服，光纤加速度传感器将会在惯性导航和其它领域发挥更重要的作用。本文将分别介绍目前各种类型光纤加速度传感器的结构、特点、走向实用化存在的问题。

Switchable vortex beam polarization state terahertz multi-layer metasurface

We propose a switchable vortex beam polarization state terahertz multi-layer metasurface, which consists of three-layer elliptical metal crosses, four-layer dielectrics, and two-layer hollow metal circles, which are alternately superimposed. Under the normal incidence of left-handed circularly polarized (LCP) wave and the right-handed circularly polarized (RCP) waves, the proposed structure realizes three independent control functions, i.e., focused and vortex beam, vortex beam with different topological charges, and polarization states switching, and azimuth switching of two vortex beams with different polarization states. The results show that the proposed metasurface provides a new idea for investigating the multifunctional terahertz wave modulation devices.

近年国外出现一种直接检测弯曲的低成本光纤曲率传感器,采用弯曲增敏技术提高光纤对弯曲的灵敏度。这种传感器的线性范围宽,能区分正向弯曲和负向弯曲,在测量较大弯曲变形的场合更具优势;并且适合埋入结构内部检测,通过转换还可测量轴向应变。然而其传感机理方面的研究仍处于探索阶段。通过分析光辐射度余弦定律理论、回音壁光线理论、沟槽角度理论等国内外对该传感器机理的研究成果,并基于平面波导的光散射损耗理论,提出了光纤曲率传感器的机理。指出弯曲引起光纤敏感区表面散射损耗的改变是导致光传输损耗改变的原因;推导出损耗与光纤弯曲半径、表面特性、光纤结构参量关系的数学模型,并通过实验验证了模型的有效性。     

Design of an optical sensor for ethylene based on nanofiber bacterial cellulose film and its application for determination of banana storage time

In this work, new ethylene gas sensor was developed on the basis of portable bacterial cellulose (BC) nanofiber film doped with KMnO₄ (K‐BC). The relationship between the concentration of KMnO₄ (8 × 10⁻³, 8 × 10⁻⁴, and 8 × 10⁻⁵ mol L⁻¹) and the optical and morphological properties of ethylene sensor was investigated. The Fourier‐transform infrared results showed that some new interactions have occurred between BC membrane and KMnO₄. The significant reduction in the relative intensity of the characteristic X‐ray diffraction peak of BC in the doped films clearly indicates that the crystalline fraction decreases as a result of KMnO₄ addition. The fabricated K‐BC was used for determination of ethylene concentration. The color, clarity, and absorbance of film at different concentrations of ethylene (10‐2000 μg mL⁻¹) were determined by spectrophotometer. Moisture absorption and water vapor permeability of BC were increased by the addition of KMnO₄. Finally, the ethylene optical sensor was used for detection and determination of ethylene concentration in the bunch banana packages.     

Silicomolybdate‐Incorporated‐Glutaraldehyde‐Cross‐Linked Poly‐L‐Lysine Film Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode as Amperometric Sensor for Bromate Determination

Silicomolybdate‐doped‐glutaraldehyde‐cross‐linked poly‐L ‐lysine (PLL‐GA‐SiMo) film modified glassy carbon electrode was successfully prepared by means of electrostatically trapping the silicomolybdate anion in PLL‐GA cationic coating. The PLL‐GA‐SiMo film was stable and the charge transport through the film was fast. The modified electrode shows excellent electrocatalytic activity towards bromate reduction with significant reduction of overpotential. In amperometric determination of bromate, the calibration plot was linear over the concentration range of 5×10^?5 to 1.2×10^?3 M with a sensitivity of 3.6 μA mM^?1. Furthermore, PLL‐GA‐SiMo film electrode showed fast response and good stability.
