Path length difference is the key parameter in two-beam interferometer, especially in low coherence interferometer. It determines the visibility of the interference fringes. In this study, we present a method to determine the path length difference between two arms of a fiber optic Mach–Zehnder interferometer by evaluating the peaks of power distribution of the interference spectrum with a wide band light source. The experimental results are in close agreement with the theoretical calculations. 相似文献
An analysis of the breakup of the \begin{document}$ ^{31}{\rm Ne} $\end{document} weakly-bound neutron-halo system on a lead target is presented, considering the \begin{document}$ 2p_{3/2} $\end{document} and \begin{document}$ 1f_{7/2} $\end{document} ground-state configurations. It is shown that a high centrifugal barrier almost wipes out the breakup channel, thus assimilating the breakup of a weakly-bound system to that of a tightly-bound system, and also reduces the range of the monopole nuclear potential. Consequently, a high centrifugal barrier prevents the suppression of the Coulomb-nuclear interference (CNI) peak by weakening couplings to the breakup channel and reducing the range of the monopole nuclear potential, two main factors that would otherwise suppress such a peak. The present study also identifies couplings to the breakup channel and a long-ranged monopole nuclear potential as the main factors that lead to the suppression of the CNI peak. A low centrifugal barrier together with a Coulomb barrier would also effectively prevent the suppression of the CNI peak in proton-halos as reported in the case of the \begin{document}$ ^8{\rm B} $\end{document} proton-halo. 相似文献
A very promising recent trend in applied quantum physics is to combine the advantageous features of different quantum systems into what is called “hybrid quantum technology”. One of the key elements in this new field will have to be a quantum memory enabling to store quanta over extended periods of time. Systems that may fulfill the demands of such applications are comb‐shaped spin ensembles coupled to a cavity. Due to the decoherence induced by the inhomogeneous ensemble broadening, the storage time of these quantum memories is, however, still rather limited. Here we demonstrate how to overcome this problem by burning well‐placed holes into the spectral spin density leading to spectacular performance in the multimode regime. Specifically, we show how an initial excitation of the ensemble leads to the emission of more than a hundred well‐separated photon pulses with a decay rate significantly below the fundamental limit of the recently proposed “cavity protection effect”.
