A symmetrical common-path heterodyne interferometry is proposed, which utilizes a traverse Zeeman laser and a high-speed phase measurement technology. It takes the advantages of direct in-situ traceable measurement with high resolution (0.1 nm) and high sampling frequency (100 kHz). The errors introduced by rotation of disk and environmental disturbance can be adaptively compensated. The system is also suitable for the simulative FH measurement using glass disk. The experimental results show that it is able to clearly describe the FH modulation of less than 10 nm when the dynamic pitch of the rotating rigid disk is 1.2 μm..

Based on the frequency-doubling theory of elliptical GaussianAn all-solid-state single frequency Nd:YVO4/KTP laser with high efficiency and high power is reported, with fiber-coupled laser diode (LD) end-pumping Nd:YVO4 crystal, ring resonator consisting of four mirrors, and KTP crystal intracavity frequency doubling. Based on the frequency-doubling theory of elliptical Gaussian beam under conditions of critical phase mathcing, an improved intracavity frequency-doubling conversion efficiency is obtained by tuning the orientation of Nd:YVO4 crystal and choosing appropriate polarizing direction for fundermental frequency light to make the walk-off plane of KTP crystal paralle to the sagittal plane of cavity. The peak output power of single frequency green laser reaches to 4.8 W and the optical-optical conversion efficiency equals to 25.5%, when the pumping power is 20 W. In comparison, when the walk-off plane is perpendicular to the sagittal plane, the conversion efficiency is 21.8%, and the maximal single frequency green laser output power is 4.1 W..

Linewidth-narrowed, tunable spectrum can be obtained by external cavity feedback laser diode array (LDA).

The external cavity is made up of fast axis collimator, collimating optical system and diffraction grating. Due to smile effect, each beam from emitter strikes the grating at a different angle, so the spectrum of each emitter has a different center wavelength and is expanded. All the emitters spectra compose the array spectrum whose width is increased by the smile effect. A spectrum filter is placed in the output branch to further narrow the spectrum. By this, the linewidth of LDA output is reduced from 2 nm to 0.12 nm with a tuning range of 12 nm (806～818 nm)..

[in Chinese], [in Chinese], and [in Chinese]
The output characteristics and their influence factors of continuous wave (CW) high power Yb3+-doped double clad fiber laser (YDCFL) are experimentally investigated. The results show that the slant angle of the dichroic mirror (DM) with respect to the fiber axes affects the threshold and the output power of the laser. The output characteristics and their influence factors of continuous wave (CW) high power Yb3+-doped double clad fiber laser (YDCFL) are experimentally investigated. The results show that the slant angle of the dichroic mirror (DM) with respect to the fiber axes affects the threshold and the output power of the laser. The threshold increases and the output power decreases with the increase of the slant angle, however, such influences may be neglected if the slant angle is smaller than ±2°. The effective gain length of the doped fiber may also influence the threshold and the output power, and determine the lasing wavelength. The lasing wavelength shifts to longer wavelength as the effective gain length of the doped fiber increases..

Five lenses with different focus are adopted to investigate the effects of the focus of lens and the laser pulse energies on pulse compression, and it is found that the best result can be obtained with the focus of 200 mm. While the focus of lens is 200 mm and the pulse energy is 160 mJ, the shortest pulse width of 3.47 ns is obtained. Under the ionization of the Cu pinhole and the atmospheric breakdown, the output pulse width can be further shortened to 2.11 ns. In addition, the measured atmospheric breakdown threshold induced by laser at 355 nm is in agreement with theoretical data..

[in Chinese], [in Chinese], [in Chinese], [in Chinese], and [in Chinese]
SiO2-TiO2 planar waveguides on Si/SiO2 substrate were prepared by sol-gel method. A fiber laser was used to fabricate strip optical waveguides in the core layer of the planar waveguides by laser direct writing of the sol-gel coatings. The thresholds of laser power density for laser direct writing optical waveguides on SiO2-TiO2 planar waveguides on Si/SiO2 substrate were prepared by sol-gel method. A fiber laser was used to fabricate strip optical waveguides in the core layer of the planar waveguides by laser direct writing of the sol-gel coatings. The thresholds of laser power density for laser direct writing optical waveguides on the SiO2-TiO2 planar waveguides were studied systematically. Moreover, the relationships between the thresholds of laser power density and anneal temperature on sol-gel films were also discussed. The experimental results show that there are initial shrinkage threshold and damage threshold when laser direct writing strip optical waveguides on the SiO2-TiO2 coatings are fabricated by sol-gel technique. Both the two thresholds mentioned above increase with the anneal temperature on films respectively, but the increasing trend of the damage threshold is more prominent than that of the shrinkage threshold, which indicates a much smaller laser spot allowed in laser direct writing. Therefore, narrower strip optical waveguides in width can be fabricated in this situation. At last, the light propagation character of the strip waveguides was measured, the three-dimensional light propagation mode of the strip waveguides was confirmed..

Taking the resonant frequency deviation as the research object,Resonator fiber optic gyro (R-FOG) is a novel optical sensor whose resonant frequency is changed due to the Sagnac effect. The digital closed-loop operation can eliminate the thermal drift in analog circuits and it will make the R-FOG system more flexible. Taking the resonant frequency deviation as the research object, a simple analytical model for the closed-loop locking technique is presented based on one-order inertial loop operation. Frequency locking technique in the digital closed-loop operation system is then studied. The optimum loop gain is achieved under a certain integral time constant. Using above optimum parameters, the loop is locked quickly and stably. Furthermore, the analysis is verified by experiments..

The formula to calculate the beam quality β factor of long-term exposure spot with beam excursion error was given. The theoretic analysis and the numerical calculation results indicate that beam quality affected by beam excursion error was independent of the beam quality without beam excursion error, but relative to the criterion of the beam quality β factor and the obstructed ratio of optics system. The beam excursion error request in application was analyzed. The results indicate that the better the beam quality wanted, the smaller the beam excursion error needed..

At the same time, residual stresses of Ni-P alloy film coated on silicon substrate by laser heat treatment were measured, and effects of residual stress of the film on wear property and interfacial bonding strength were analyzed. The experimental results showed that residual stresses of Ni-P alloy film coated on silicon substrate by chemical deposition are behaved as tensile stress, its residual stresses vary after laser heat treatment, and high tensile tress is changed into low tensile stress or compressive stress. The effect of residual stress of the film on its wear property is obvious, and its wear extent decreases with fall of residual stress. Bonding strength of the film-substrate system decreases with residual stress increase, and reasonable parameters of laser heat treatment may control residual stress of the film accurately, and increase bonding strength of the film-substrate..

The extinction coefficient has obvious influence on the transmissivity and reflectivity of defect mode. When the extinction coefficient increases from 0 to 0.03, the transmissivity and reflectivity of defect mode change from 1 to 0 and from 0 to 0.86 respectively. The width of defect mode in reflected wave will enlarge when the extinction coefficient increases, while the width of defect mode in transmitted wave turns constant when the extinction coefficient changes..

The focal plane intensity distributions of the DOE can be expressed as the sum of a series of sine and cosine functions with different harmonic spatial-frequencies and complex amplitudes, no matter whether the SSD technique is adopted or not. Theoretical analysis shows that the spatial frequency spectra are modulated by the SSD technique, and the modulation is determined not only by parameters of the SSD technique, but also by phase distribution of the DOE. The SSD technique smoothes the focal plane intensity distribution of the DOE. But to obtain good beam smoothing performance, the DOE should be optimized considering the parameters of the SSD technique. Finally the DOE is optimized at a certain choice of SSD parameters. The simulated results show that the tolerance of the DOE to incident wave-front distortion is improved with the use of the SSD technique..

The ETU effects in the Nd:YAG laser crystals and the Cr4+:YAG saturable absorbers are numerically simulated by a variation stepping Runge-Kuttaa method. The pulse energy and peak power are affected obviously at low pump power, and average power is affected obviously at high pump power. The effects of ETU on the pulse energy and peak power are decreased with the pump power increasing. And the effect to the pulse duration (full width at half maximum) and the repetition rate can be neglected with the pump power increasing. The numerical calculation results are coincident with the experiments..

Neglecting the heat conduction in the direction of shell-wall surface, an analytical expression of temperature profile is obtained for the cylinder shell under laser-irradiation. According to the mechanical properties varying with temperature and internal pressure, analyses of the thermal crack formation, the thermal crack growth and the crack running are carried out. The laser parameters expression on the target surface is derived for the three kinds of damage configurations. Numerical calculation is performed for a 30CrMnSi-steel cylindrical shell, the numerical results accord with the experiment phenomenons. The results show that given the cylindrical shell properties and internal pressure, the damage configuration can be experimentally designed by the laser parameters choice..

The experimental results indicate that the coupling coefficient reaches to maximum when laser flux is 3.47×106 W/cm2, which agrees well with the theoretical result of 6.14×106 W/cm2. The two-dimensional model theory of laser supported detonation wave (LSDW) interacting with solid target is used to calculate the coupling coefficient. And the trends of theory and experiment are the same, but the two have prominent difference in values. The reason is that the laser spot is a little over large and the point blast model is not suitable to calculate the theory values..

TheZnSe and Na3AlF6 as two classical materials are composed of one-dimensional (1D) photonic crystal, and the medium of the defect is Na3AlF6. Using transfer matrix method, the optical transmission properties in 1D photonic crystals with defect is analyzed, and the band gap property of 1D photonic crystal is obtained. The transmission spectra of reference photonic crystal and measurement photonic crystal with or without adding strain is simulated numerically. The analysis shows that it is linear relationship between the longitudinal strain and wavelength of the peak of band gap. According to the corresponding relation, a new method of strain measurement is presented. The wavelength of the peak of band gap can shift because the linear expansion coefficient between substrate and photonic crystal is not equal and the medium reflection index varies along with the temperature. In order to compensate temperature error, a reference photonic crystal having the same structure as the measurement photonic crystal is introduced in the measurement system. And the temperature compensation with a reference photonic crystal is realized. The results show that the sensitivity of this measuring system is 6×10-4 nm/με and the measurement range is 0～2000 με..

Broadband Continuous-Wave Cavity Ring-Down Technique with Combined Cavity Configurations for High Reflectivity Measurement
[in Chinese], and [in Chinese]
A simple cavity ring-down (CRD) technique based on an intensity-modulated continuous-wave (CW) diode laser is developed to determine simultaneously the reflectivities of the cavity mirror and the inserted planar mirror. The straight- and folded-cavity configurations with a same cavity length are established. Under bothA simple cavity ring-down (CRD) technique based on an intensity-modulated continuous-wave (CW) diode laser is developed to determine simultaneously the reflectivities of the cavity mirror and the inserted planar mirror. The straight- and folded-cavity configurations with a same cavity length are established. Under both cavity configurations and with phase-locked technique, the amplitude and phase-shift of the first harmonic of the CRD signal are measured as a function of the modulation frequency covering an appropriate range. Effects of the system frequency response are eliminated in the data processing, and then the amplitude ratio and phase-shift difference between the two cavity configurations are fitted to an explicit theory to determine the reflectivities. The measurements are repeated with two cavity lengths, one of which is a 100 cm confocal cavity and the other a 110 cm stable cavity. The reflectivities of the cavity mirror and the inserted mirror are measured to be 99.784% and 99.668%, respectively, with an uncertainty in the order of 10-5..
