Production of annular flat-topped vortex beams

A model of an annular flat-topped vortex beam based on multi-Gaussian superimposition is proposed.We experimentally produce this beam with a computer-generated hologram(CGH) displayed on a spatial light modulator(SLM).The power of the beam is concentrated on a single-ring structure and has an extremely strong radial intensity gradient.This beam facilitates various applications ranging from Sisyphus atom cooling to micro-particle trapping.

A new energy source originating from extra dimensions

In this work the Einstein gravitational field equations and the Lichnerowicz boundary formalism in the extra dimensions are used to build up our black hole model from 6-dimensional space－time. From the internal stress－energy tensor the solutions with energy levels and semiclassical space-quantization are obtained, which combines with only one metric condition outside the defect. We show a new type of energy source, which originates from extra dimensions. A part of the energy source of quasi-stellar object (QSO) maybe come from extra dimensions in that way. The theoretical arithmetic upper limit is identical to that of the output energy of QSO.     

利用空问诱导色散补偿介质色散

研究了超短脉冲贝塞尔光束在色散介质中的传输特性，指出空间诱导色散效应可以用来补偿介质色散作用，从而可以在色散介质中实现无衍射无色散的类时空孤子波的传输。用理论推导和数值模拟的方法得到的具有反常色散性质的空间诱导色散可以有效地补偿介质色散。数值模拟的结果表明，由于超短脉冲贝塞尔光束的无衍射无色散传输距离受到高阶色散效应和贝塞尔光束空间受限两方面的限制，无衍射无色散传输只能在有限距离内近似实现。通过增加脉冲长度可以减小高阶色散效应的影响。在传输距离小于衍射距离时，空间诱导色散效应可以很好地描述脉冲演化和色散补偿过程。     

空间调制线偏振光谱测量的误差影响仿真分析

通过理论推导,给出了1/4波片复合双折射光楔偏振片型空间调制结构的误差矩阵,并在空间调制相位为0及0.5π的位置分别计算了理想像面光强受器件误差的影响程度。1/4波片的延迟量误差是将入射光斯托克斯参量的V分量引入调制光强中的主要原因,在调制相位为0.5π的位置,当延迟量误差为0.02π时,其调制系数为0.0314。在给定的器件误差范围内,入射斯托克斯参量具有同样的Q、U分量时,V=0.2会使得U分量测量偏差控制在0.45%内的概率从V=0时的80%左右下降到6%。利用计算机仿真分析得到了线偏振度测量偏差随入射条件的变化,在所有误差取误差范围内的最大值且入射光的V分量小于0.04时,在仪器未定标的条件下,线偏振度的相对测量偏差可以控制在0.5%以内。     

Supercontinuum generation in a standard single-mode fiber by a Q-switched Tm,Ho:YVO4 laser

Broadband mid-infrared(IR) supercontinuum laser is generated in standard single-mode fiber-28 directly pumped by a 2054 nm nanosecond Q-switched Tm,Ho:YVO4 laser. The average output powers of 0.53 W in the ~1.95–2.5 μm spectral band and 0.65 W in the ~1.97–2.45 μm spectral band are achieved at pulse rate frequencies of 7 and 10 kHz, and the corresponding optic-to-optic conversion efficiencies are 34.6% and 42.4% by considering the coupling efficiency. The output spectra have extremely high flatness in the range 2060–2400 and 2060–2360 nm with negligible intensity variation(2%), respectively. The output pulse shape is not split, and pulse width is reduced from 29 to ~15.4 ns. The beam quality factor M2 is 1.06, measured using traveling knife-edge method, and the laser beam spot is also monitored by an IR vidicon camera.     

宽频带激光自由空间传输的调制特性研究

基于惠更斯-菲涅耳衍射积分公式,研究了宽带光束在菲涅耳衍射区的自由空间传输特性,得到宽带光束传输的调制深度与光束带宽Δλ及菲涅耳数F的变化关系。结果表明:一定的带宽对光束的均匀性有适当的改善;当光束的带宽Δλ<2λ0/F时,带宽越大,光束越均匀;当带宽满足条件Δλ=2λ0/F时,菲涅耳衍射完全消失;在一定的菲涅耳数范围内,宽带光束的调制深度随菲涅耳数振荡变化,振荡曲线的主极大值和次极大值分别出现在菲涅耳数为奇数和偶数处,而极小值则出现在菲涅耳数F=2k±1/3(k=1,2,3,…)处,在极小值处光束的均匀性最好。

Generation of hyperentangled four-photon cluster state via cross-Kerr nonlinearity

We propose a scheme for generating a hyperentangled four-photon cluster state that is simultaneously entangled in polarization modes and spatial modes. This scheme is based on linear optical elements, weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity, and homodyne detection. Therefore, it is feasible with current experimental technology.     

Nonlinear polarization rotation-induced pulse shaping in a stretched-pulse ytterbium-doped fiber laser

We report on controllable pulse shaping in a Yb-doped stretched-pulse fiber laser followed by a high-power chirped pulse amplifier. We demonstrate that the pulses after an extra-cavity grating pair change their intensity profile from Lorentz to Gaussian and then to sech2 shapes by adjusting the intra-cavity polarization through a quarter-wave plate inside the fiber laser cavity. The laser pulses with different pulse shapes exhibit pulse-to-pulse amplitude fluctuation of -- 1.02%, while the sech2-shaped pulse train is provided with a more stable free-running repetition rate as a result of the stronger self-phase modulation in the fiber laser cavity than Lorentz- and Gaussian-shaped pulse trains.
