A theoretical analysis of the effects of erbium ion pair on the dynamics of an optical gain stabilized fiber amplifier

In this paper, the effects of ion-pair formation on the gain dynamics of multi cavity optical automatic gain control erbium doped fiber amplifier is modelled. The inhomogeneous Cabezas simple model is used to write the rate and propagation equations for the active medium. The solution of the governing equations shows that in high concentration of the erbium ions, depending on the pumping rate, the relaxation oscillations are converted to nT-Periodic or even to chaotic behavior. Although the high concentration erbium ion in the optical amplifiers decreases the conversion efficiency and increases the threshold pump power, amplitude of the transient effects is reduced in the multi feedback-loop WDM amplifiers relative to the low concentration erbium ions multi feedback-loop optical amplifiers and ion-pairs, which act as a saturable absorber to compensate the gain tilt caused by the OAGC laser spectral hole burning. The theoretical results are in complete agreement with the previous published experimental results.     

Effects of zero-filling and apodization on spectral integrals in discrete Fourier-transform spectroscopy of noisy data

The influence of noise on the standard deviation of spectral integrals is examined. Calculations assuming discrete Fourier-transform data are compared with Monte-Carlo simulations. The effects of zero-filling and apodization are examined for free-induction-decay (FID) signals and for symmetric spin-echo signals in one and two dimensions, with particular attention to features not previously presented in the literature. Findings suggest that for mild apodization, the known sensitivity enhancement due to zero-filling in either the real or the imaginary part signal [E. Bartholdi, R.R. Ernst, Fourier spectroscopy and the causality principle, J. Magn. Reson., 11 (1973) 9-19] is maintained; however, for stronger apodization filters, this enhancement can be obliterated completely. It is shown that results obtained by analysis of one-dimensional signals can be readily applied to multi-dimensional data. Furthermore, zero-filling has a negligible effect for symmetric spin-echo signals with implications for signal averaging in magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopic imaging.     

Acoustic characteristics of a heavy duty vehicle cooling module

Studies dedicated to the determination of acoustic characteristics of an automotive cooling package are presented. A shrouded subsonic axial fan is mounted in a wall separating an anechoic- and a reverberation room. This enables a unique separation of the up- and downstream sound fields. Microphone measurements were acquired of the radiated sound as a function of rotational speed, fan type and components included in the cooling module. The aim of the present work is to investigate the effect of a closely mounted radiator upstream of the impeller on the SPL spectral distribution. Upon examination of the SPL spectral shape, features linked specifically to the source and system are revealed. The properties of a reverberant sound field combined with the method of spectral decomposition permit an estimation of the source spectral distribution and the acoustic transfer response, respectively. Additionally, purely intrinsic acoustic properties of the radiator are scrutinized by standardized ISO methods. A new methodology comprising a dipole sound source is adopted to circumvent limitation of transmission loss measurement in the low frequency range. The sound attenuation caused by the radiator alone was found to be negligible.

TIME-REVERSAL SYMMETRY AND TIME-DEPENDENT PHYSICS

In this letter I study the concept of time-reversal invariance in both classical and quantum physics in the absence of time-translation invariance (explicit time dependence/external time-dependent fields). Accordingly I generalize the concept of time-reversed process when the time-origin of the process has physical significance. The cases of classical physics, standard quantum mechanics and time-neutral quantum mechanics with and without explicit time dependence are discussed.     

New implicitly solvable potential produced by second order shape invariance

The procedure proposed recently by Bougie et al. (2010) to study the general form of shape invariant potentials in one-dimensional Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics (SUSY QM) is generalized to the case of Higher Order SUSY QM with supercharges of second order in momentum. A new shape invariant potential is constructed by this method. It is singular at the origin, it grows at infinity, and its spectrum depends on the choice of connection conditions in the singular point. The corresponding Schrödinger equation is solved explicitly: the wave functions are constructed analytically, and the energy spectrum is defined implicitly via the transcendental equation which involves Confluent Hypergeometric functions.     

基于中温黑体的近红外光纤光谱仪辐射定标的方法研究

中温黑体是红外谱段常用的高精度辐射标尺设备,而近红外是处于其有效辐射范围边缘的谱段,所以该谱段的定标研究相对较少。研究了基于中温黑体的近红外光纤光谱仪辐射定标方法,主旨是探讨定标精度如何受定标模型的结构参数选择的影响,进而为近红外光谱辐射计量溯源提供技术参考。采用50～1 050 ℃的可调中温黑体对近红外光纤光谱仪(950～1 700 nm)进行辐射定标。针对定标的关键环节重点讨论了两个内容,首先是辐射传输模型的几何因子匹配问题,比较分析了传统的双圆盘辐射传输模型和光纤直接耦合模型。对于光纤光谱仪的辐射定标来讲,采用光纤直接耦合形式的辐射传输模型,结构上更简单,耦合效率更高。其次重点分析了辐射定标中模型的结构参数对定标精度的影响,其影响的原因是定标数据本身属性中的尺度结构特征,即通常所说的非线性问题。因此对于定标精度要求较高时,需要采用非线性定标模型进行校正,并尽可能保证测试点采样的尺度均衡,这是小样本数据解释非线性结构关系时无法回避的样本选择问题。数据分析结果表明,定标方程的不同结构参数的选择策略对定标精度有显著影响,校正方程的样本残差标准差带变化范围为±0.1%～±1%。

基于视觉感知的光谱评估尺度

光谱颜色复现和色度精度是评价光谱重建算法准确的基础。简单而直观的评价指标对颜色复现控制是必不可少。该指标需要同时表征复现颜色的光谱差和色度差。在研究光谱匹配评估的方法基础上,提出基于颜色视觉感知的三种光谱评估指标,通过加权人眼视觉匹配函数,实现颜色光谱差与色度的评估。通过孟塞尔颜色系统的光谱数据,该论文分析与验证三种视觉加权的评估指标的有效性。通过孟塞尔颜色系统数据,这些指标在CIELab均匀色空间中分布均匀而稳定,从而证明加权算法的评估指标是既表征到颜色感知又反映出颜色的光谱相似度。实证结果表明,加权的指标可以实现同时表征实际人眼的颜色感知和颜色光谱差异。基于人眼视觉感知的评估指标解决了颜色的原始光谱和重建光谱的光谱匹配精度的定量评价问题。所提出评价指标通过一个简单而直观的数值实现对复现颜色光谱与色度评估。
