Physical meaning of the radial index of Laguerre-Gauss beams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Laguerre-Gauss modes are a class of fundamental and well-studied optical fields. These stable, shape-invariant photons - exhibiting circular-cylindrical symmetry - are familiar from laser optics, micro-mechanical manipulation, quantum optics ...

Influence of Image Processing Method on Wavefront Reconstruction Accuracy of Large-Aperture Laser

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
In order to improve the wavefront reconstruction accuracy of a large-aperture laser, this paper proposed an adaptive window preprocessing algorithm based on the threshold center of gravity method (AW-TCoG).

Rapid and Sensitive Detection of Water Toxicity Based on Photosynthetic Inhibition Effect

open access: yesToxics, 2021
To achieve rapid and sensitive detection of the toxicity of pollutants in the aquatic environment, a photosynthetic inhibition method with microalgae as the test organism and photosynthetic fluorescence parameters as the test endpoint was proposed.

Geometrical vs wave optics under gravitational waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present some new derivations of the effect of a plane gravitational wave on a light ray. A simple interpretation of the results is that a gravitational wave causes a phase modulation of electromagnetic waves.

Highly Sensitive Sphere-Tube Coupled Photoacoustic Cell Suitable for Detection of a Variety of Trace Gases: NO2 as an Example

open access: yesSensors, 2021
The concentration of trace gases in the atmospheric environment is extremely low, but it has a great impact on the living environment of organisms. Photoacoustic spectroscopy has attracted extensive attention in the field of trace gas detection because ...

Nonlinear and Quantum Optics with Whispering Gallery Resonators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Optical Whispering Gallery Modes (WGMs) derive their name from a famous acoustic phenomenon of guiding a wave by a curved boundary observed nearly a century ago. This phenomenon has a rather general nature, equally applicable to sound and all other waves.

Scattering of Partially Coherent Vector Beams by a Deterministic Medium Having Parity-Time Symmetry

open access: yesPhotonics, 2022
We study the scattering properties of the partially coherent vector beams with the deterministic media having the classic symmetric and parity-time (PT) symmetric scattering potential functions.

Study on Two-Dimensional Exit Pupil Expansion for Diffractive Waveguide Based on Holographic Volume Grating

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Diffraction gratings are becoming a preferred option for waveguide head-mounted in–out coupling devices due to their flexible optical properties and small size and light weight.

A Mid-Infrared Quantum Cascade Laser Ultra-Sensitive Trace Formaldehyde Detection System Based on Improved Dual-Incidence Multipass Gas Cell

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Formaldehyde (HCHO) is a tracer of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and its concentration has gradually decreased with the reduction in VOC emissions in recent years, which puts forward higher requirements for the detection of trace HCHO.

Efficient Classical Simulation of Optical Quantum Circuits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We identify a broad class of physical processes in an optical quantum circuit that can be efficiently simulated on a classical computer: this class includes unitary transformations, amplification, noise, and measurements.
