Monte Carlo方法模拟光在生物组织中传播的新进展

Monte Carlo方法已被广泛用于模拟复杂的随机介质如生物组织中光的辐射传输.在生物光子应用中,早期的Monte Carlo模拟模型忽略了光在组织中传输的波动性,而用中性粒子光子包来模拟其传播过程.然而,许多光学诊断技术是基于光在组织中的偏振效应和多重散射的相干性来揭示组织的生理和病理信息,这就要涉及光辐射的波动性.本文阐述了用Monte Carlo方法模拟光在生物组织中传播的最新进展.     

低维半导体异质结中的量子相干红外发射机理理论研究

给出了一种在非粒子反转条件下量子阱和量子点激光器的红外发射机理.此种红外发射是基于在同一作用区产生并作为红外场相干源的两种带间跃迁激光场的共振非线性混合.这种频率下转换机理并不依赖于在半导体激活媒质中的长时相干假定条件,在室温和泵注入电流条件下仍然有效.频率下转换的固有效率可以达到相当于每个可见光子产生一个红外光子的量子极限值.根据红外发射的可参变特性,这种非粒子反转的方法尤其适用于长波红外工作范围.

基于光程匹配原理提出了一种用光学相干断层成像(OCT)系统获得的图像测量样品折射率的方法。通过分析光程匹配原理,给出用OCT图像法测量样品折射率的原理及过程。以玻璃载波片和黄瓜组织为样品进行实验。实验结果表明,用OCT图像法获得的载玻片和黄瓜组织的折射率测量值分别为1.499和1.353,与发表或已知的折射率结果相吻合,测试结果的随机误差可小于0.01。另外,使用OCT图像法通过短时间所采集的两幅图像可对横向扫描任意位置的折射率同时进行测量。该方法进一步简化了基于光程匹配原理的折射率测量法的过程,缩短了测量时间,是一种快速测量样品折射率的实用方法。     

Degree of fourth-order coherence by double Hanbury Brownben Twiss detections

Photon quantum statistics of light can be shown by the high-order coherence. The fourth-order coherences of various quantum states including Fock states, coherent states, thermal states and squeezed vacuum states are investigated based on a double Hanbury Brown–Twiss (HBT) scheme. The analytical results are obtained by taking the overall efficiency and background into account.     

Quantum coherence in A-three-level system driven by bichromatic coupling field

<正>We present a theoretical study of quantum coherent effects in a A-three-level system with a strong bichromatic coupling field and a weak probe field.When one component of the strong bichromatic coupling field is resonant with a corresponding transition and the other is detuning with an integer fraction of the Rabi frequency of the resonant field, the absorption spectrum exhibits a series of symmetrical doublets.While two frequencies of the strong bichromatic coupling field are symmetrically detuned from the transition,the position and the relative intensity of the absorption peak are both affected by the coupling field intensity and detuning.An explanation of the spectrum is given in term of the dressed-state formalism.

A study of optical properties of a four-level atomic system via vacuum-induced coherence effects

This paper studies the effects of vacuum-induced coherence(VIC) in a four-level atomic system.The effects of VIC lead to the coherent hole burnings exhibited in the system at some certain points of the Rabi frequency.This is also the reason for the enhancement of the coherent population trapping.In addition,optical bistability occurs in the evolution curves of absorption versus the phase of Rabi frequencies.     

Multiple spatial coherence resonance induced by the stochastic signal in neuronal networks near a saddle-node bifurcation

This paper reported multiple induction of spiral waves with a stochastic signal in a square lattice network model composed of type I Morris-Lecar (ML) neurons, where each neuron is coupled to its four nearest neighbors. The induction occurs in two or three distinct regions of noise intensity, and thus enables emergence of multiple spatial coherence in the network, demonstrating a novel evidence of multiple coherence resonance. Emergence of this multiple spatial coherence resonance was evidenced by calculating the degree of spatial complexity, spatial correlation length, spatial structure function, circular symmetry, and signal-to-noise ratio curves. The network was further characterized by spatial frequency and inherent spatial scale, reflecting its inherent ability to manifest ordered pattern formation under the driven of noisy signals.     

Coherence and wavefront characterization of Si‐111 monochromators using double‐grating interferometry

A study of the coherence and wavefront properties of a pseudo‐channel‐cut monochromator in comparison with a double‐crystal monochromator is presented. Using a double‐grating interferometer designed for the hard X‐ray regime, the complex coherence factor was measured and the wavefront distortions at the sample position were analyzed. A transverse coherence length was found in the vertical direction that was a factor of two larger for the channel‐cut monochromator owing to its higher mechanical stability. The wavefront distortions after different optical elements in the beam, such as monochromators and mirrors, were also quantified. This work is particularly relevant for coherent diffraction imaging experiments with synchrotron sources.     

Coherence characteristics of light-emitting diodes

We report the measurement of coherence characteristics of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Experiments were performed using red and green color LEDs directly illuminating the Young's double slit kept in the far-zone. Fourier transform fringe analysis technique was used for the measurement of the visibility of interference fringes from which the modulus of degree of spectral coherence was determined. Low degree of spectral coherence, typically 0.4 for red and 0.2 for green LED with double-slit separation of 400 μm was observed. A variable slit was then kept in front of the LEDs and the double slit was illuminated with the light coming out of the slit. Experiments were performed with various slit sizes and the visibility of the interference fringes was observed. It was found that visibility of the interference fringes changes drastically in presence of variable slit kept in front of LEDs and a high degree of spectral coherence, typically 0.85 for red and 0.8 for green LED with double-slit separation of 400 μm and rectangular slit opening of 500 μm was observed. The experimental results are compared with the theoretical counterparts. Coherence lengths of both the LEDs were also determined and it was obtained 5.8±2 and 24±4 μm for green and red LEDs, respectively.
