Narrowband optical parametric amplifier for efficient conversion of high-energy pulse with high beam quality

In a two-stage optical parametric amplifier based on KTiOAO4 crystals, we apply beam-overlapping technique to nanosecond signal pulse amplification, which results in high conversion efficiency and good beam quality. A signal pulse energy of 66 mJ at 1.572 μm wavelength is generated with 220 mJ of pump pulse input. A maximum gain of 66 and a maximum pump depletion of as high as 44% are determined. The spectral linewidth of the amplified signal pulse is around 50 MHz, and the beam quality factor of M 2 is less than 2.3.

通过在强磁场条件下,利用环形刀口石墨阴极(刀口尺寸38~39mm)开展电子束轰击收集极内表面铜箔和垂直轰击金属靶片实验,对无箔二极管中电子束的空间密度分布进行了初步研究,并对其产生原因进行了分析。研究结果表明,电子束径向分布在37.2~40.2mm,存在密度较高区域(38.8~39.4mm)和密度最大值点(39.2mm),且均偏向于阴极外侧。无箔二极管环形阴极爆炸发射产生电子束的径向密度分布可用偏态分布近似。     

铁电液晶光寻址空间光调制器性能分析

针对氢化非晶硅/铝/铁电液晶结构的光寻址空间光调制器（OASLM）,依据其等效电路模型,利用Pspice和Matlab软件对其分辨率、响应速度、对比度及灰度响应等性能进行了分析。结果表明:在铁电液晶（FLC）层厚度一定的情况下,减小光敏感层（a-Si:H层）的厚度可以提高FLC-OASLM的调制传递函数,从而提高分辨率;在其他参量一定的情况下,FLC-OASLM的响应速度随写入光光强增大而增大（写入光从0.08 mW/cm2增大到10 mW/cm2,延迟时间减小110 s,上升时间减小154 s）,随擦除光光强增大而减小（擦除光从0增大到1 mW/cm2,延迟时间增大41 s,上升时间仅增加3 s）;FLC-OASLM的对比度随控制光光强增大而增大,最终趋于一个稳定值21∶1;在其他参量不变时,随着擦除光光强的增大,输出光响应呈现等级下降,且发现当擦除光光强达到一定值（3 mW/cm2）后,擦除光的改变主要影响下降时间而对上升时间几乎无影响;合理设计激励源信号波形,可以得到超过十级灰度输出,表明擦除光具有实现FLC OASLM的灰度响应的功能。     

激光传输模拟中基于衍射过程FFT算法的参量优化

为实现采用相位屏法正确模拟准直激光束经湍流大气的传输特性,根据湍流特性、抽样定理以及两屏间衍射过程FFT算法本身所决定的相邻两屏网格间距之间的关系,得出相位屏间距和网格间距确定网格数目最优取值的解析表达式,数值模拟高斯光束经自由空间和湍流大气传输的远场分布,网格数目取解析式求得的最优值848时,光束经自由空间传输的模拟结果与ABCD定律求得的解析结果完全一致;网格数目取836或860时,等效于光束通过偶数相位屏时被正透镜或负透镜阵列会聚或发散,削弱或夸大湍流大气对光束的影响,模拟结果出现严重偏差。     

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.     

Large Positive and Negative Lateral Shifts from an Anisotropic Metamaterial Slab Backed by a Metal

The lateral shift of a light beam at the surface of an anisotropie metamaterial （AMM） slab backed by a metal is investigated. Analytical expressions of the lateral shifts are derived using the stationary-phase method, in the case that total reflection does and does not occur at the first interface. The sign of the lateral shift in two situations is discussed, and the necessary conditions for the lateral shift to be positive or negative are given. It is shown that the thickness and physical parameters of the AMM slab and the incident angle of the light beam strongly affect the properties of the lateral shift. Numerical results validate these conclusions. The lossy effect of the metamaterial on the lateral shift is also investigated.

Result of search for low velocity exotic particles

The L3＋C experiment, taking advantage of the L3 muon magnetic spectrometer, measured the spatial tracks of charged cosmic ray particles to obtain rigidity as well as velocity. One possible low velocity exotic particle is observed. The existing uncertainties are discussed, and the flux upper limit of the low velocity exotic particles from this observation is deduced based on the assumption of a null observation. The result is 6.2×10^-10 cm^-2·s^-1·sr^-1 at 90% confidence level in the velocity range from 0.04c to 0.5c.

空间调制傅里叶变换红外光谱仪多级微反射镜倾斜误差分析

空间调制傅里叶变换红外光谱仪无可动部件,系统稳定而紧凑,而且程差可控,可实现在线监测和实时检测。多级微反射镜是光谱仪干涉系统的关键器件,其在系统中的位置精度对光谱仪性能影响很大。本文对多级微反射镜的倾斜误差引起的光程差变化进行了理论计算,并利用光学软件进行了模拟仿真。分析结果表明,随着多级微反射镜倾斜角度的增大,干涉图对比度下降,对应的光谱图脉冲谱线展宽,信噪比下降,严重时会出现波数偏离。以上分析方法对后期系统公差分配及装调有着重要的指导意义。
