The influence of pulse duration on the stress levels in ablation of ceramics: A finite element study

We present a finite element model to investigate the dynamic thermal and mechanical response of ceramic materials to pulsed infrared radiation. The model was applied to the specific problem of determining the influence of the pulse duration on the stress levels reached in human dental enamel irradiated by a CO₂ laser at 10.6 μm with pulse durations between 0.1 and 100 μs and sub-ablative fluence. Our results indicate that short pulses with durations much larger than the characteristic acoustic relaxation time of the material can still cause high stress transients at the irradiated site, and indicate that pulse durations of the order of 10 μs may be more adequate both for enamel surface modification and for ablation than pulse durations up to 1 μs. The model presented here can easily be modified to investigate the dynamic response of ceramic materials to mid-infrared radiation and help determine optimal pulse durations for specific procedures.     

Spectral and temporal characteristics of metallic nanoparticles produced by femtosecond laser pulses

We study the time of flight optical emission from titanium and tungsten nanosized particles, generated through femtosecond laser-matter interaction in vacuum, in the wavelength spectral range from 300 to 900 nm. Typical spectra consist of broadband structureless signals similar to black body emission from a macroscopic object. Nanoparticles temperature, deduced from their emission spectra, decreases drastically as a function of their time of arrival at a given distance from the target. This behaviour is seen to be independent of individual particle velocities.     

Fluorescence and absorption of polystyrene exposed to UV laser radiation

We show that when polystyrene is exposed (for 15–60 sec) to a UV laser light beam (λ = 248 nm), its absorption and luminescent properties change significantly. In the irradiated polymer, optical centers are formed with absorption bands in the 280–460 nm region and fluorescence bands in the 330–520 nm region. We have established the chemical structure of the optical centers for fluorescence of polystyrene. __________ Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Spektroskopii, Vol. 73, No. 1, pp. 54–58, January–February, 2006.     

在不同激光脉宽下的高次谐波

用数值计算方法计算了不同强激光脉冲宽度下高次谐波的产生.我们发现对于激光场强度不高,不能有效电离初态的激光场,长脉冲宽度可以更有效产生高次谐波;而对于高场强的激光场,由于它能够在几个光学周期之内把原子的初态全部电离,所以短脉冲的激光场能够更有效产生高次谐波.     

用自适应脉冲微扰引导混沌系统到周期解

用自适应脉冲微扰方法控制的系统的某个系统变量作为驱动,设计了一种自适应控制器方法对两个或多个响应混沌系统进行脉冲微扰,引导这些系统从混沌运动到低周期运动,实现同时控制多个混沌系统到不同的周期态. 当选择相同的自适应控制器输入变量实施脉冲微扰时,还可控制两个或多个混沌系统达到不同的周期态同步. 通过对R?ssler混沌系统的仿真研究证实了方法的有效性. 关键词： 混沌控制 系统参量 自适应控制器 脉冲微扰 周期态同步     

Luminescence investigations of the GaP-based dilute nitride Ga(NAsP) material system

Multi-quantum well heterostructures (MQWHs) of the novel Ga(NAsP)/GaP material system have been grown, pseudomorphically strained to GaP-substrate. The crystalline perfection is verified by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). For As-concentrations in excess of about 70%, a direct band structure and adequate luminescence efficiency for laser device application is observed. Temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) investigations show the influence of carrier localisation and non-radiative recombination processes typical for dilute nitride materials. With rising N content in the active material, the emission wavelength shifts towards longer wavelength, leading to Ga(NAs)/GaP MQW structures with photon energies below the indirect band gap of silicon (Si). At the same time the luminescence intensity drops due to an increase in non-radiative carrier traps and/or structural degradation.     

直径对脉冲爆震发动机性能的影响

本文通过实验研究了脉冲爆震发动机的直径对其性能的影响．实验结果表明；当爆震室的直径增大时，爆震波压力波形相似，平均峰值压力比较接近，且比冲基本保持不变，而推力则随爆震室直径的增大而增大。实验曲线表明爆震室内的流动具有自相似性，从而为建立尺寸律提供了实验依据．本文中比冲和平均推力是利用摆动原理测量的，并与由作用在推力壁上的压力计算得出的比冲和平均推力的理论值和实验值进行了比较，结果基本吻合，说明该测量方法可行．     

Laser induced copper electroless plating on polyimide with Q-switch Nd:YAG laser

The results of laser induced deposition of copper on polyimide substrate from copper electrolyte solution are reported. Unlike most work reported in the literatures where CW Ar⁺ lasers were used, a second harmonic (532 nm wavelength) Q-switch Nd:YAG laser was used for our experiments. The deposition process was conducted by laser-catalyzing of the polyimide surface and subsequent photothermal-accelerated reduction of copper-complex ions in an alkaline reducing environment. The characteristics of the deposited copper line were investigated in terms of laser beam scanning speed, and the number of scans. The surface morphology and chemical composition of the deposited copper were analyzed using field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDX). The optimum processing conditions have been identified. The copper deposit was found to adhere well to the substrate.

约束层对激光驱动冲击波压力影响机理的理论研究

针对刚性约束层、柔性约束层以及液体约束层，从激光诱导冲击波阵面状态、汽化物(包括气体和等离子体)扩散以及冲击波的反射进行分析，发现对于脉宽小于冲击波通过汽化物层的时间间隔的短脉冲激光，约束层并不能直接提高冲击波的冲量，而对于脉宽大于冲击波通过汽化层时间间隔的激光，其增强冲击效果是通过约束汽化物的扩散，提高压力幅值和由于冲击波在约束层与工件表面的多次反射而延长对工件的作用时间来实现的.刚性约束层能最大地增加冲击冲量，而柔性约束层和液体约束层的主要优点是其形状可与非平面形工件表面符合. 关键词： 激光 约束层 扩散 反射波
