中红外波长可调谐激光器及其在葡萄糖检测中的应用

提出一种激光器发射波长和功率控制与稳定的方法,研制出波长范围在9.19~9.77 μm,可应用于葡萄糖检测的中红外波长可调谐CO₂激光器,发射光谱半波宽度为4 cm-1,光谱分辨率达到2.7×104,最高功率为800 mW,功率波动性＜0.8%。根据葡萄糖在中红外指纹谱波段的吸收特性,选择激光器发射光谱9R和9P带的1 081,1 076,1 051,1 041和1 037 cm-1作为测量波长,利用ATR传感器测量了PBS溶液中葡萄糖浓度。结果表明五个测量波长下的吸收度与葡萄糖浓度呈现良好的线性关系(R2＞0.99,SD＜0.000 4,P＜0.000 1),且该波长可调谐激光光谱测量系统的灵敏度是传统FTIR光谱仪的4倍左右。     

激光频率调制线型分析

在激光频率调制的理论分析中,一般采用正弦波调制、正弦波解调,而没有讨论调制和解调的其它情况。本文主要分析了Guass线型吸收的情况下,锯齿波调制、方波解调的一次、二次谐波相检结果和三角波调制、方波解调的一次、二次谐波相检结果,以及调制深度对信号谱形和信号强度的影响。我们发现,在锯齿波调制、方波解调情况下,一次、二次谐波谱形和正弦波调制情况区别很大;但在三角波调制、方波解调情况下,可以获得和正弦波调制、正弦波解市场相似的结论。另外,不同的调制深度对输出的调制谱形也有重要的影响。我们还用甲烷的可调谐 红外光调制吸收光谱实验验证了理论分析结果。最终得到结论：频率调制谱的信号谱形及信号强度与调制波形、解调波形和调制深度均有关系。     

Use of sol–gels as solid matrixes for laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy

Silicon, zirconium and aluminum sol–gels were investigated as suitable starting materials for tunable matrix calibration standards for laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. A fast and simple preparation method was developed, using aluminum i-propoxide as the precursor in the sol–gel synthesis, which allows one to quickly prepare solid calibration standards offering very homogenous analyte distribution in the matrix, low optical spectral background, as well as reproducible behavior towards laser ablation and vaporization. The surface of the calibration targets and the morphology of the ablation craters were examined by optical and scanning electron microscopy, and the material ejection process was observed by shadowgraph imaging. Low μg/g detection limits and 4–15% relative standard deviation were measured by laser induced breakdown spectroscopy for Pb, Cr and Be used as internal standards.

An experimental study of the premixed benzene/oxygen/argon flame with tunable synchrotron photoionization

A comprehensive experimental study of the premixed benzene/oxygen/argon flame at 4.0 kPa with a fuel equivalence ratio (?) of 1.78 has been performed with the tunable synchrotron photoionization and molecular-beam sampling mass spectrometry. Isomers of most observed species in the flame have been unambiguously identified by measurements of the photoionization efficiency spectra. Mole fraction profiles of species up to C₁₆H₁₀ have been measured at the selective photon energies near ionization thresholds, and the flame temperature profile is obtained using Pt/Pt-13%Rh thermocouple. Compared with previous studies on benzene flames by Bittner and Howard, and by Defoeux et al., a number of new species are observed in the present work. These new combustion intermediates should be included in the kinetic models of the growth of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and benzene oxidation. Free radicals detected in the flame include CH₃, C₂H, C₂H₃, C₂H₅, C₃H, C₃H₃, C₃H₅, C₄H, C₄H₃, C₄H₅, C₄H₇, C₅H₃, C₅H₅, C₅H₇, C₆H₅, C₆H₅O, C₇H₇, and C₉H₇. More significantly, isomers of some PAHs have been identified, which should be of importance in understanding the mechanism of soot formation.     

Terahertz electrically controlled nematic liquid crystal lens

We report some preliminary results on the realization of terahertz (THz) nematic liquid crystal (LC) lens with electric tunable focal length. A LC cell with a single circular-hole electrode is driven by an AC voltage to yield the desired spatial distribution of the refractive index. The two-dimensional function of the phase delay introduced into THz wave depends on the AC voltage and the electrodes contacting the LC layer. This lens is operated at room temperature and its convergent optical characteristic is demonstrated at 118 μm. We realize the lens with a clear aperture of 1 mm. The lens matched with a bolometer array is capable of obtaining real-time THz images of a sample without any mechanical scanning.     

Semiconductor laser amplitude and phase noises effects in coherent optical frequency domain reflectometry C-OFDR

We study the effects of the semiconductor laser noise on the generated beat signal, in Coherent Optical Domain Reflectometry device. By using a general laser noise analytical model, based on Volterra non-linear treatment of laser rate equations, we find a novel general expression of the beat photocurrent. We show that the coherence and the incoherence cases are observed for a different delay time intervals than the ones known in literature. We show that the coherence domain corresponds to a delay time lower than the half of the laser coherence time τ₀<1/2τ_c, and the incoherence domain corresponds for τ₀>2τ_c. An original shape of the beat signal autocorrelation function affected by the laser noises is obtained.
