General and effective dynamic gain spectrum control of broadband raman amplifiers with multi-wavelength pumping

An effective feedback algorithm is proposed to dynamically control the gain spectra of multi-wavelength pumped broadband Raman amplifiers. Based on Raman coupling power equations, a simple saturation factor is introduced to achieve the adjusting matrix. By using this method, efficient pump adjustment can be carried out to accomplish wide-range dynamic gain spectrum control (larger than 22 dB dynamic range) as well as automatic gain clamping even for 90 nm bandwidth, highly-saturated RAs. Moreover, this algorithm can be well applied to different fiber types as well as pumping schemes. Some useful guidelines are also demonstrated.     

Nonlinear absorption and refractive index of Brillouin scattered mode in piezoelectric semiconductor plasmas by an applied magnetic field

With the aid of hydrodynamic model, a detailed analytical investigation is made of the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) of the Stokes component of the scattered wave in piezoelectric-doped semiconductor plasma subjected to a magnetostatic field. The origin of the SBS process lies in the third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility arising due to the induced nonlinear current density and acoustic perturbations internally generated due to crystal properties such as piezoelectricity and electrostriction. Using the coupled mode theory of plasmas the effective refractive index and absorption coefficient are determined via the effective susceptibility. The influence of piezoelectricity, magnetostatic field and doping concentration has been explored. The analysis has been applied to both noncentrosymmetric and centrosymmetric crystals. Numerical estimates are made for n-type InSb crystal duly irradiated by a frequency doubled 10.6 μm CO₂ lasers. Results are found to be well in agreement with available literature. The analysis establishes that a large nonlinear refractive index and small absorption coefficient can easily be obtained under moderate excitation intensity in piezoelectric doped magnetized semiconducting crystal, which proves its potential as candidate material for the fabrication of cubic nonlinear devices.

利用单模光纤中SBS效应进行被动调Q的掺铒光纤激光器研究

分析了利用光纤中的受激布里渊散射(SBS)相位共轭效应进行激光腔内调Q,产生ns量级脉冲激光的原理,并对利用该效应产生的激光脉冲波形和脉冲形成过程进行了数值模拟,得到的脉冲波形与SBS相位共轭反射率随时间变化曲线基本一致,表明利用光纤中的SBS相位共轭作用调Q具有可行性。据此,对采用单模光纤(SMF)作为SBS池的掺Er3＋调Q光纤激光器进行实验研究,当单模光纤长度为1.5 m时,在45 mW的抽运光功率下得到脉宽约2.6 ns,脉冲周期58.23 ns,平均功率7.35 mW的激光脉冲。进一步的研究表明：激光器中相位共轭镜的形成与SBS介质长度有关,SBS介质过长,斯托克斯线之间无固定的相位关系,不能形成相干叠加,SBS相位共轭腔不能形成; SBS介质过短,腔内正交偏振模光子寿命的改变使脉冲出现双峰现象。脉冲形成后其属性只与SBS动态属性有关。     

基于布里渊后向散射的海水温度与盐度同步测量研究

基于布里渊散射信号的检测可实现对海水温度等参量的监测.由于海水的布里渊频移量是关于温度和盐度的二元函数,故无法仅通过布里渊散射频移量的检测实现对海水温度和盐度两个独立变量的精确测定.研究表明布里渊信号的功率也是关于温度和盐度的二元函数,所以文章提出通过测量布里渊频移量和接收布里渊信号功率大小,通过两个二元函数反演出海水的温度与盐度数值,实现对海水温度和盐度两个独立变量的同步测量.     

Acceleration of electrons by a Bessel-Gaussian beam in vacuum

The acceleration of electrons by using a Bessel-Gaussian (BG) beam in vacuum is studied. It is shown that the axial electric field of a linearly or circularly polarized BG beam of order n = 1 can be used to accelerate electrons. The general features of the acceleration of electrons by using a linearly or circularly polarized BG beam, such as the transversal and axial electric-field components, phase velocity, slippage distance, accelerating potential, and energy gain etc., are analyzed.     

Internal dynamics of a living cell nucleus investigated by dynamic light scattering

Recent progresses in cellular biology have shown that the nucleus of a living cell is a structured integration of many functional domains with a complex spatial organization. This organization, as well as molecular and biochemical processes, is time regulated. In the past years many investigations have been performed using fluorescent microscopy techniques to study the internal dynamics of the nucleus of a living cell. These investigations, however, have never focussed on the global internal dynamics of the nucleus, which is still unknown. In this article we present an original light scattering experimental device that we built to investigate this dynamics during biological processes. By means of this experimental set-up, we investigated the global dynamics of the nucleus of a living cell treated with a DNA replication inhibitor. This dynamics presents different and independent kinds of relaxation well separated in time that vary as a function of the cell cycle phases.

Fluctuations in a fluid under a stationary heat flux. III. Brillouin lines

We present a general theory of the Brillouin lines in a fluid subject to a strong stationary heat flux. The combined effects of sound-absorbing walls and of large spatial inhomogeneities induced by the temperature gradient are computed for the first time. Nonequilibrium sound modes, constructed by WKB techniques, are used. No restrictions have to be made in the theory concerning the scattering geometry and the thermal equations of state.
