[in Chinese], [in Chinese], [in Chinese], and [in Chinese]
The beam quality and far-field beam profile of broad-area diode laser (BAL) are investigated. In accord with the theory of self-consistency, the wave propagation of the output laser of external cavity BAL is calculated. In Fourier optic methods, the external cavity can be interpreted as a spatial filter in the Fourier The beam quality and far-field beam profile of broad-area diode laser (BAL) are investigated. In accord with the theory of self-consistency, the wave propagation of the output laser of external cavity BAL is calculated. In Fourier optic methods, the external cavity can be interpreted as a spatial filter in the Fourier plane of the laser diode. The transverse mode can be selected by changing the position of the filter. The relative external cavity BAL experiment is completed, and a single-lobed output beam of the external cavity BAL is achieved. The output laser with divergence angle of 0.074° (full-width of half-maximum (FWHM)) and corresponding M2 factor of 1.16 is obtained when external cavity feedback at I=1.18Ith, which agrees well with the theoretical result..

The effect of thermally induced aberration on laser beam quality is analyzed based on mode coupling theory. The relation between coupling amplitude of ideal and aberrated fundamental mode and Zernike aberration is numerically simulated. An adaptive optics system is presented based on a MEMS deformable micro-mirror to compensate the thermally induced aberration. From the test result, it is explicit that the adaptive system can correct the thermally induced aberration of high power lasers and increase the Strehl ratio to about 80% averagely..

The chondrocytes isolated from the cartilage sample of 3-week-old New Zealand white rabbits were cultured with newborn calf serum (NCS) at 0%, 2.5%, 5%, and 10%, irradiated by HNI at 5.74 mW/cm2 for 2, 8, 16, 30 and 45 min per day for 6 days, and then incubated till the 13th day. The proliferation and collagen synthesis were assessed by XTT assay and hydroxyproline (Hrp) content measurement, respectively. The DNA expression was observed by acridine orange stain and confocal laser scanning microscope. The chondrocyte morphology and ultrastructure have been observed on the 9th and 13th day after the first HNI by scan electron microscope. There is no significant photobiomodulation (PBM) on the proliferation of the chondrocytes (PPC) cultured with NCS at 10%. There is PPC cultured with NCS at 2.5% or 5%, and the effects are significant when the cells were irradiated by HNI for 16, 30 and 45 min, respectively, among which the radiation time 30 min corresponds the optimum dose 9.42 J/cm2. Hrp secretion increased steadily with days in NHI group. When the photobiomodulation is significant, the chondrocyte DNA expression was significant, and its morphological characteristics have no significant differences from the one cultured with NCS at 10%. There might be photobiomodulation on the proliferation of the chondrocytes cultured in nutritional deficit condition and irradiated by HNI at limited dosage, which is of clinic importance..

[in Chinese], [in Chinese], [in Chinese], [in Chinese], [in Chinese], and [in Chinese]
In order to explore the possibility of photodisruption in rabbit sclera by femtosecond laser and to seek the appropriate ways of incision and relevant parameters, femtosecond laser (800 nm/50 fs) with different pulse energies was applied to irritate rabbit sclera in vitro.

By moving a three-axis, computer-controlled translation stage to which the sample was attached, femtosecond laser could achieve three types of incisions, including transscleral channel, snake pattern and linear cutting. The irritated sclera was observed by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In comparison with femtosecond laser, Nd:YAG laser was used as control. It was shown that through a 0.2 numerical aperture (NA) objective lens, femtosecond laser with the power intensity larger than 9.55×1014 W/cm2 and the pulse energies ranging from 37.5 to 125 μJ could achieve cuttings with the depth from 30 to 70 μm after linearly scanning on the sclera at the speed of 0.1 mm/s. Whereas, it failed to make any photodisruption if laser power intensity was below 7.96×1014 W/cm2 or the pulse energy was less than 31.25 μJ under the same condition. Comparing with Nd:YAG laser, the inner wall of channel was smoother and the damage to surrounding tissues was slighter by femtosecond laser. The high precision and minimal damage to surrounding tissues with femtosecond laser predicted its potential use in the treatment of glaucoma..

[in Chinese], [in Chinese], [in Chinese], [in Chinese], and [in Chinese]
The wave-front conversion between cylindrical and plane waves by photorefractive local volume holograms recorded at 632.8 nm and reconstructed at 800 nm is investigated in this paper. Based on two-dimensional coupled-wave theory, the coupled wave differential equations of the cylindrical lenses on double-doped LiNbO3 cThe wave-front conversion between cylindrical and plane waves by photorefractive local volume holograms recorded at 632.8 nm and reconstructed at 800 nm is investigated in this paper. Based on two-dimensional coupled-wave theory, the coupled wave differential equations of the cylindrical lenses on double-doped LiNbO3 crystal are derived, and the analytical integral solutions for the amplitudes of the space harmonics of the field inside the transmission geometry are presented. The values of off-Bragg parameter at the reconstructed process are analyzed. Furthermore, the dependences of diffraction efficiency on recording cylindrical wave and on the geometric size of the gratings are discussed, and the amplitude distribution of the diffracted beam at the output boundary is also analyzed. It is found that: 1) the diffraction efficiency increases as the focal length of the volume holographic cylindrical lenses increases; 2) the diffraction efficiency increases with increasing the grating thickness, but the diffraction efficiency decreases with increasing the width of the diffraction surface at vertical direction; 3) diffracted amplitude distribution derivates much from the desired uniform amplitude as the initial recording cylindrical, and the diffracted intensity mainly concentrates at the line B-B′ of the gratings. At last, the effect of selectivity of different on-Bragg reference points for recording hologram on the diffraction efficiency of the grating is discussed, the results show that reference points have no influence on diffraction efficiency..

Grating readout characteristics for two-center and single-center recording are analyzed, and the simulating calculation is performed through jointly solving the two-center material equations and coupled-wave equations. The results show that the readout time constant for a saturated grating recorded by two-center method is much shorter than that in LiNbO3:Fe:Mn; an efficient hologram can be realized with one-color recording, the readout time constant is much larger than the recording time constant, and the quasi-nonvolatile readout can be observed. The analysis shows that Ru perhaps is much easier to be excited than Mn by red light, so the grating persistence would decrease; red light can act as recording light and sensitizing light in one-color scheme, and the grating recorded in Fe can be transferred to Ru, which is weakly sensitizing to red light..

The new material “black silicon” formed by arrays of sharp conical spikes on the silicon surface is fabricated under the cumulative ultra-short laser pulses irradiation in different ambient atmospheres. The physical mechanisms of conical spikes evolutions impacting silicon surface under picosecond (ps) and femtosecond The new material “black silicon” formed by arrays of sharp conical spikes on the silicon surface is fabricated under the cumulative ultra-short laser pulses irradiation in different ambient atmospheres. The physical mechanisms of conical spikes evolutions impacting silicon surface under picosecond (ps) and femtosecond (fs) laser irradiations are different. The formation of spikes arrays depends on the pulse duration and ambient atmosphere. Especially, in SF6 ambient atmosphere, silicon surface micro-structuring evolutions under ps and fs laser irradiations are analyzed in detail. Under the ps laser irradiation, silicon surface is melted before the spike arrays formed; while under the fs laser irradiation, the formation of spike array does not go through the liquid phase. The preliminary experiment shows that the infrared radiation absorptance is more than 80% at the wavelength range of 1.5～16 μm..

In terms of the analytical expression of temperature distribution in detector cell, the characteristic factors are confirmed for incidence laser energy reconstruction. By introducing a calibrated-coefficient, the formulae are obtained for laser energy reconstruction and calibrated-coefficient calculation. The calibrated-coefficient is analyzed by numerical simulation that is depended on detector-cell dimensions, laser characteristics, and circumstance conditions. In virtue of modification of convection-irradiation heat loss and laser reflectivity in reconstructed laser energy, the calibrated-coefficients are seasoned with circumstance conditions and different laser parameters. The precision of laser energy measured with calorimetric array is improved effectively..

The set of differential equations for an fiber amplifier with pump, signal and the first-order Stokes, taking into account effects of thermal gradients caused by heat generation, is presented.The influence of pump powers, convective coefficient, fiber lengths, and detuning of the Stokes frequency from exact SBS resonance on SBS gain (G) is studied under unidirectional and bi-directional end pumps. Compared to forward pump and bi-directional pump schemes, backward pump scheme offers the least gain (G), which can be further reduced through decreasing convective coefficient and fiber lengths. When total pump power is 1 kW, gain (G) of three-segment distributed pumping scheme is higher than the SBS gain threshold value. The results show that the backward pump scheme has advantage over other pump schemes in suppression of SBS, and the SBS is not a limiting factor to single-frequency power extraction from fiber amplifiers for a properly temperature variation and sufficiently short amplifier length..

The spectra results showed that the reflectivity of Ag films increased with the thickness of Cr interlayer increasing from 8 to 17 nm and then decreased with increasing Cr film thickness to 24 nm. Compared with pure Ag films on glass substrates, the reflectivity of Ag films with 17～21 nm Cr interlayer was higher and that of Ag films with 8～14 nm and 24 nm Cr interlayer was lower. Thus, the reflectivity of Ag film can be promoted by introducing a certain thickness of Cr interlayer. The XRD analysis showed that with a certain thickness of Cr interlayer, the crystalline grains increased, intergranular defects and scattering decreased, and so the strain decreased. The adhesion was also improved by using the tape test method..

The reconstruction accuracy is deteriorated by the Gauss- or Poisson-distributed noise. Corresponding to the major steps of tomographic technique, a two-stage denoise technique has been developed. The deflectometric data are denoised by wavelet-based procedure after projection data reduction. Deflection-angle averaging revision algorithm is applied to suppress the noise in iteration. The Moire tomographic reconstruction technique with eight-neighbor derivative algorithm and denoise method is tested using numerically generated data from a known temperature distribution and noise source. The results show that the denoise processing is able to improve the reconstruction accuracy significantly, which reduces the reconstruction errors of 45%. The temperature field of butane flame is then measured by the Moire tomographic technique and the experimental reconstruction is compared with the thermocouple temperature measurement..

In this paper, laser phase modulation is introduced onThe reflectivity of optical mirrors can be obtained by measuring linewidth of transmission spectrum of optical cavity and the fineness of Fabry-Perot (F-P) cavity. It is difficult for a spectrometer to measure the linewidth accurately due to its limited resolution. In this paper, laser phase modulation is introduced on the basis of fineness of F-P cavity, and laser phase modulation and fineness of F-P are proposed for measuring the reflectivity of optical mirrors. The frequency interval between the carrier and one sideband generated by electro-optical modulation is used as a radio frequency ruler to precisely measure the linewidth. Thus the reflectivity of mirrors is obtained with uncertainty reaching the level of 10-4 by the relation of fineness of cavity, spectral linewidth and reflectivity of mirrors..
