A pulsed chemical oxygen-iodine laser (COIL) using atomic iodine generated by volumetric discharge of CH3I is developed and tested. COIL with a gain length of 60 cm is energized by a square pipe-array jet singlet oxygen generator with basic hydrogen perox
By using mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTS) self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), electroless silver plating is developed for the metallization of near-field optical fiber probes. This method has the advantages of controllability, no pinholes, convenience,
A new but simply implemented optical clock recovery scheme for optical time-division multiplexing (OTDM) systems based on stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) effect is presented and demonstrated experimentally. According to the unequal-amplitude even-mu
Noninvasive technology for measuring instantaneously two-dimensional (2D) temperature distributions of flame using two-color planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF) of OH is investigated. A calibration method is researched and developed. This method is b
In this letter, we propose a method for the numerical calculations of the femtosecond laser pulse passed through a subwavelength aperture. The time-dependent laser pulse is decomposed into a series of monochromatic simple harmonic waves.For the light fiel
