High Refractive-Index Microspheres as Optical Cavity Structure

Microspheres of refractive index of n_D > 2.0 have been investigated. The organic-inorganic hybrid microspheres of n_D = 1.72 were prepared by the vibrating orifice technique using titanium-tetra-n-butoxide (TTBu) and diphenyldimethoxysilane (DPhDMS). For lasing demonstration, Eu³⁺-doped microspheres were prepared using europium (III) thenoyltrifluoroacetonate [Eu(TTFA)₃] as the dopant. The particles have good spherical shape, smooth surface and high optical transparency. The diameters of the particles could be controlled to within 0.1 m. Subsequent heating of the microspheres at 550°C under oxygen atmosphere resulted in an increase in the refractive index up to n_D = 2.6 with retention of the spherical shape. Resonant emission was confirmed from Eu^{3 +}-doped microspheres after heating at 400–550°C, by pumping with the 514.5 nm line of a CW- Ar⁺laser.     

Stress State of an Elastic Space with a Toroidal‐Shaped Cavity

Solutions are obtained for the stress state problem for an elastic space with an internal toroidalshaped cavity that can be expanded in a trigonometric series in the angle in cylindrical coordinates. Displacements and stresses are specified on the boundary. An analytic solution of the problem is found using generalized analytic functions. Stresses and displacements of points in the elastic space are calculated.

Finite-difference approach for the high-precision analysis of rotating-frame diffusion images

A finite-difference approach has been developed for precisely determining diffusion coefficient and T₁ relaxation time in fluid samples analyzed by magnetization-grating rotating-frame imaging (MAGROFI) with either a surface coil or a toroid cavity detector (TCD). This approach avoids shortcomings of phenomenologically based approximations, such as neglect of sample geometries with singularities at the confines of the sample volume, and accounts for the diffusive edge enhancement observed in fluid imaging. Error limits are discussed. The new method has been applied to the determination of the self-diffusion coefficient for MAGROFI experiments using TCDs filled with acetone.     

改善高功率激光二极管阵列光束质量的一种新方法

根据波导模理论，推导了高功率激光二极管阵列的远场分布，根据其分布特点，设计了一种离轴外腔.运用这种外腔，在工作电流为17A时，光束的束宽积从自由运转时的1100mm·mrad减小到128mm·mrad，二极管阵列的光束质量提高了8.5倍左右，输出功率约为自由运转时的75%.     

聚心火焰在共振腔作用下引发爆轰的数值研究

 基于带化学反应的二维轴对称Euler方程，利用带有Superbee限制函数的波传播算法，对共振腔中的氢气-空气预混气的聚心燃烧进行了数值模拟，讨论了共振腔不同抛物面对起爆的影响。数值结果表明，在开始阶段，燃烧诱导的激波在轴心、火焰和固壁的反射，使火焰失稳，随后共振腔中的抛物壁面上产生一定频率和强度的反射激波，不断穿越火焰，使火焰进一步失稳，加剧了燃烧速度，最终导致爆轰的形成。同时，火焰在与激波的作用过程中，形状扭曲变形，呈封闭端小敞口端大的扁平头部蘑菇云。共振腔抛物面的不同形状引起激波聚焦位置的变化，会影响激波和火焰的相互作用，使起爆提前或推迟，甚至不起爆。     

Kerr介质中双原子-压缩真空场系统的腔场谱

研究了含Kerr介质腔中耦合双原子间与双模均处于压缩真空态的光场拉曼相互作用过程的腔场谱.通过求解本征方程导出了双模光场处于任意强度时腔场谱的计算公式,给出了数值计算结果.发现在两模初始场均为弱场时,Kerr介质和原子间的耦合作用对谱结构的影响较小;当双模初始场均为强场时,两模主峰的右侧出现了半梳状边峰,随Kerr效应的增强,峰间距逐渐加宽,并向高频方向扩展,在Kerr效应较强时,两模边峰的峰高出现高低相间的现象.     

Tunable subnanosecond laser pulse generation using an active mirror concept

We report (theory, experimental check) an improved approach for generation of a tunable, subnanosecond pulse (0.1–0.4 ns), based on a single pulsation (“spike”) separation from the transient oscillations in a dye laser with active mirror (AMIR). A pumping by 20–50 ns pulses from Q-switched Nd:YAG laser is considered. The separation is in original, two-spectral selective channels cavity, where the forced by AMIR quenched generation at one of the wavelength stops initially started spiking generation at the other wavelength after the first spike development. The AMIR quickly starts the quenching generation at a precisely controlled moment and with necessary intensity thus assuring the desired separation. An advantage is a high reproducibility of the separation for high (~250%) pump power fluctuations combined with tuning in large range (~20 nm). To obtain such an operation we form ~1 ns leading front pump pulse by electrooptical temporal cutting of the input pump pulse and use an optical delay line. This increases also a few times the power in the separated spike (to be ~100 kW). Our approach widens the combinations of lasers for effective applications of spike separation technique (dye lasers excited by Q-switched solid-state or Cu-vapor lasers).     

Boltzmann distribution of free energies in a finite-connectivity spin-glass system and the cavity approach

At sufficiently low temperatures, the configurational phase space of a large spin-glass system breaks into many separated domains, each of which is referred to as a macroscopic state. The system is able to visit all spin configurations of the same macroscopic state, while it can not spontaneously jump between two different macroscopic states. Ergodicity of the whole configurational phase space of the system, however, can be recovered if a temperature-annealing process is repeated an infinite number of times. In a heating-annealing cycle, the environmental temperature is first elevated to a high level and then decreased extremely slowly until a final low temperature T is reached. Different macroscopic states may be reached in different rounds of the annealing experiment; while the probability of finding the system in macroscopic state α decreases exponentially with the free energy F _α (T) of this state. For finite-connectivity spin glass systems, we use this free energy Boltzmann distribution to formulate the cavity approach of Mézard and Parisi [Eur. Phys. J. B, 2001, 20: 217] in a slightly different form. For the ±J spin-glass model on a random regular graph of degree K = 6, the predictions of the present work agree with earlier simulational and theoretical results.
