强激光场中氘团簇的离子能谱与团簇尺度

在SILEX-Ⅰ装置上进行了超短超强激光与氘团簇相互作用的实验。采用法拉第筒测量了激光与氘团簇靶相互作用后发射出的氘离子能谱,并根据氘离子能谱计算出氘团簇的尺寸和分布。由于激光预脉冲的影响,得到了团簇的尺度比瑞利散射测量的结果小。这些结果对团簇源制备系统的改进和优化激光打靶有着重要的参考意义,而且可以为团簇尺度的测量提供一种新的方法。     

Identification of proteinaceous binders used in artworks by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry

Proper identification of proteinaceous binders in artworks is essential for specification of the painting technique and thus also for selection of the restoration method; moreover, it might be helpful for the authentication of the artwork. This paper is concerned with the optimisation of analysis of the proteinaceous binders contained in the colour layers of artworks. Within this study, we worked out a method for the preparation and analysis of solid samples from artworks using tryptic cleavage and subsequent analysis of the acquired peptide mixture by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation time of flight mass spectrometry. To make this approach rational and efficient, we created a database of commonly used binders (egg yolk, egg white, casein, milk, curd, whey, gelatine, and various types of animal glues); certain peaks in the mass spectra of these binders, formed by rich protein mixtures, were matched to amino acid sequences of the individual proteins that were found in the Internet database ExPASy; their cleavage was simulated by the program Mass-2.0-alpha4. The method developed was tested on model samples of ground layers prepared by an independent laboratory and then successfully applied to a real sample originating from a painting by Edvard Munch.     

Broadband and Highly Directional Visible Light Scattering by Laser-Splashed Lossless TiO2 Nanoparticles

All-dielectric nanoparticles, as the counterpart of metallic nanostructures have recently attracted significant interest in manipulating light-matter interaction at a nanoscale. Directional scattering, as an important property of nanoparticles, has been investigated in traditional high refractive index materials, such as silicon, germanium and gallium arsenide in a narrow band range. Here in this paper, we demonstrate that a broadband forward scattering across the entire visible range can be achieved by the low loss TiO₂ nanoparticles with moderate refractive index. This mainly stems from the optical interferences between the broadband electric dipole and the magnetic dipole modes. The forward/backward scattering ratio reaches maximum value at the wavelengths satisfying the first Kerker’s condition. Experimentally, the femtosecond pulsed laser was employed to splash different-sized nanoparticles from a thin TiO₂ film deposited on the glass substrate. Single particle scattering measurement in both the forward and backward direction was performed by a homemade confocal microscopic system, demonstrating the broadband forward scattering feature. Our research holds great promise for many applications such as light harvesting, photodetection and on-chip photonic devices and so on.

Experimental studies of self-starting passive mode locking Er3+ -doped fiber ring soliton laser

The mechanism of femtosecond optical pulse generation in a self-starting Er³⁺-doped fiber ring soliton laser and experimental research results are discussed. Using the nonlinear polarization rotation effect of the fiber for sat-urable absorbers (and then self-amplitude modulation) which acts as the mode locking mechanism in an Er³⁺-doped fiber ring cavity laser, stable self-starting mode locking pulses have been generated. The shortest output pulse is 269 fs, with the central wavelength of 1,531 pm at the repetition rate of 21.37 MHz. The average output powen of the two terminators of the laser are 0.25 mW and 0.08 mW respectively. The threshold pump power which sustains the mode locking is 15 mW. Under high pump power, the laser works in a high order harmonic mode locking state. The mode locking pulse durations vs different cavity lengths are also studied.

Amperometric ion sensors based on laser-patterned composite polymer membranes

A polymer membrane for the selective amperometric transfer and sensing of molecular ions has been designed and characterised. The membrane was formed from two polymer layers, a supporting film of polyethylene terephthalate on which an electrolyte film containing polyvinylchloride is cast. The polyester layer has a laser-etched pattern of circular micro-holes in one region. These hole structures are arranged in a rectangular geometry and measure 22 μm in diameter with separation distances of 105 μm and 120 μm. The polyvinylchloride underlayer is a composite system comprised of a 2-nitrophenyl octyl ether plasticising solution containing an electrolytic salt of tetrabutylammonium tetrakts-(4-chlorophenyl)borate. In this way, an array of micro-interfaces between an analyte solution and a PVC gel electrolyte is formed and used as a liquid|liquid interface for the amperometric monitoring of ion transfer reactions. The membrane was characterised in terms of the voltammetric response to choline transfer. The study includes an examination of the fabrication methodology, materials composition and membrane structure.

稳定波长反馈引起的失谐对自由电子激光的影响

利用修改的一维非定态程序,基于美国杰弗逊实验室（JLab）Demo自由电子激光装置的参数,对高功率自由电子激光振荡器稳定波长的反馈系统进行了数值模拟。电子微脉冲为高斯型分布,每个纵向网格中取16个模拟宏电子,不考虑电子束的能散度。结果表明：当无反馈时,腔内光功率和波长都可以在一定范围内稳定;加入反馈后,由于电子束能量的变化所引起的等效失谐对整个系统有着重要的影响,甚至可能导致电子和光场失去相互作用,从而使得装置不能工作。提出应该在光场达到饱和以后再启动稳定波长反馈系统。模拟结果证明,该实施方案是合理有效的,可以避免其对FEL运行的严重影响。
