Author(s):Fan, Weichen(1,2); Wang, Leiran(1,2); Zhang, Wenfu(1,2); Zhao, Wei(1,2); Lu, Zhizhou(1,2); Li, Wei(1,2); Wang, Xinyu(1,2); Zhou, Mengyao(3); Wang, Weiqiang(1); Sun, Qibing(1); Wang, Guoxi(1,2); Cheng, Dong(1,2)Source: IEEE Photonics Journal Volume: 11 Issue: 6 DOI: 10.1109/JPHOT.2019.2949313 Published: December 2019Abstract:Mid-infrared (MIR) optical frequency combs (OFCs) are ideal light sources for precision metrology and can find extensive applications, especially in molecular spectroscopy and gas detection. Here the generation of mode-locked MIR frequency comb in a LiNbO3 microring through optimized slot-waveguide design is proposed. Such microcomb can span over four-fifths of an octave (ranging from ~2810 nm to ~4630 nm) with pump power as low as 50 mW, which can be applied to the 2f-3f self-referencing for fully stabilization and helpful to monolithic integration of the whole system. Further investigations on complex dynamical processes for the microcomb generation suggest that the intracavity soliton drifting caused by the third-order dispersion could be compensated by the self-steepening effect as introducing an additional drift through proper dispersion tailoring. This work could facilitate the low-threshold broadband MIR frequency comb generation technique, as well as provide a way to realize more delicate control of soliton microcombs in both temporal and spectral domain. ? 2009-2012 IEEE.Accession Number: 20200207992024 -

The output power of 38 W at a 250 kHz repetition rate with a spectrum width of 4 nm centered at 1030 nm, which support Fourier-transform limited pulse duration of 389 fs has been generated. The compressed power of 23.9 W with pulse duration of 985 fs has been obtained with a chirped volume Bragg grating compressor.

Title:Comparison Investigation of the Three-dimensional Stiffness of Optical Tweezers with Different Polarization Fields
Author(s):Cao, Zhi-Liang(1,2); Liang, Yan-Sheng(1); Yan, Shao-Hui(1); Zhou, Yuan(1,2); Cai, Ya-Nan(1,2); Lei, Ming(1); Li, Man-Man(1); Yao, Bao-Li(1)Source: Guangzi Xuebao/Acta Photonica Sinica Volume: 48 Issue: 7 DOI: 10.3788/gzxb20194807.0726002 Published: July 1, 2019Abstract:To elucidate the influence of laser polarization state on optical trap stiffness, the three-dimensional stiffness of four kinds of optical traps with different polarization states (azimuthally polarized beam, radially polarized beam, linearly polarized beam, and circularly polarized beam) to trap silica beads with different sizes was investigated. The result show that, when the silica bead's size is equivalent to the laser wavelength, the three-dimensional stiffness of circularly polarized beam and linearly polarized beam are larger than those of radially polarized beam and azimuthally polarized beam. With the increase of the silica bead's size, the three-dimensional stiffness of azimuthally polarized beam and radially polarized beam are larger than those of circularly polarized beam and linearly polarized beam. In addition, the experimental results also show that, when using an oil-immersion objective lens to trap particles, the spherical aberration caused by the mismatch of the refractive index of oil and water will reduce the utilization of the numerical aperture of the objective lens. The work reported in this paper provides a guidance and reference to the force measurement when using trapping beams with different polarization states. ? 2019, Science Press.

Title:Adaptive-window angular spectrum algorithm for near-field ptychography
Author(s):Pan, An(1,2); Zhou, Meiling(1,2); Zhang, Yan(1,2); Min, Junwei(1); Lei, Ming(1); Yao, Baoli(1)Source: Optics Communications Volume: 430 Issue: DOI: 10.1016/j.optcom.2018.08.035 Published: 1 January 2019Abstract:Near-field ptychography provides advantages over far-field ptychography that large field-of-view (FOV) can be imaged with fewer diffraction images, and with weaker requirements on the detector dynamic range and beam coherence, which has drawn attention recently. However, the propagation distance of traditional angular spectrum (AS) method is limited and the reconstruction of the smallest resolvable object detail is restricted by the sensor's pixel size. To this end, we propose an adaptive-window angular spectrum (AWAS) algorithm to solve both problems by adding the window adaptively associated with the propagation distance and avoid the extra computations via extra scaling factors. Meanwhile, it features validity for the independent sample size and the sample number on the observation plane. This algorithm is strictly deduced from the Rayleigh–Sommerfeld formula and based on the linear convolution, which can be evaluated by fast Fourier transform effectively. The burden of calculations is comparable to traditional AS method. The performance has been achieved both in two-dimensional and three-dimensional near-field ptychography with simulations and experiments. This method will make near-field ptychography more practical and can be used in X-ray or electron-microscopy and other computational imaging techniques. ? 2018Accession Number: 20183405732339 -

Title:Optical sorting of small chiral particles by tightly focused vector beams
Author(s):Li, Manman(1); Yan, Shaohui(1); Zhang, Yanan(1,2); Liang, Yansheng(1); Zhang, Peng(1); Yao, Baoli(1)Source: Physical Review A Volume: 99 Issue: 3 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevA.99.033825 Published: March 12, 2019Abstract:The identification and separation of substances by chirality has always been an important problem in biomedical research and industry. Light beams carry optical momentum, and can exert optical force on any object they impinge due to the transfer of momentum. Different chiral objects will experience different optical forces when illuminated by the same light beam. We demonstrate here, based on the dipolar approximation, that a tightly focused vector beam can selectively trap and rotate small chiral particles in the transverse plane via the chirality-tailored optical forces. The radial optical force can transversely trap the chiral particles off axis or push them away depending on the real part of the chirality parameter, while the lateral optical force manifesting as the azimuthal optical force can drive the trapped particles to orbitally rotate with opposite chiral absorption in opposite directions. The study reported here may find applications in discriminating and separating chiral objects with specified chirality. ? 2019 American Physical Society.Accession Number: 20191106640862 -

Title:Optimization investigation for high-power 1034 nm all-fiber narrowband Yb-doped superfluorescent source

Theoretical investigation indicates that with the increase in fiber length, signal power presents one peak value, but the ratio of signal power to output power is decreasing monotonously. Moreover, a filter with high extinction ratio and a gain fiber with high absorption coefficient can have gain suppression on a long wavelength. One all-fiber superfluorescent source is built experimentally on the basis of the theoretically optimized parameters. The source achieves an output power of 214.64 W with a central wavelength of 1034.18 nm and signal–noise ratio of 30 dB. The output power of the source can have further power scaling with considerable available pump power. ? 2019 Elsevier B.V.Accession Number: 20191606799161 -

Two distinctly different evolutionary types of double-pulse mode-locking have been investigated in detail: splitting from one pulse and forming simultaneously. Relaxation oscillations, beating dynamics, transient bound state, spectral broadening, and variation of pulse interval have been observed in the evolution processes of the double-pulse mode-locking. Our study will be helpful for the further research of double-pulse mode-locking. ? 1995-2012 IEEE.Accession Number: 20192607099946 -

Title:SCE: A Manifold Regularized Set-Covering Method for Data Partitioning
Author(s):Li, Xuelong(1,3); Lu, Quanmao(4,5); Dong, Yongsheng(2,6,7); Tao, Dacheng(2,8)Source: arXiv Volume: Issue: DOI: null Published: April 17, 2019Abstract:Cluster analysis plays a very important role in data analysis. In these years, cluster ensemble, as a cluster analysis tool, has drawn much attention for its robustness, stability and accuracy. Many efforts have been done to combine different initial clustering results into a single clustering solution with better performance. However, they neglect the structure information of the raw data in performing the cluster ensemble. In this paper, we propose a Structural Cluster Ensemble (SCE) algorithm for data partitioning formulated as a set-covering problem. In particular, we construct a Laplacian regularized objective function to capture the structure information among clusters. Moreover, considering the importance of the discriminative information underlying in the initial clustering results, we add a discriminative constraint into our proposed objective function. Finally, we verify the performance of the SCE algorithm on both synthetic and real data sets. The experimental results show the effectiveness of our proposed SCE algorithm.

Title:Gap-type dark localized modes in a Bose-Einstein condensate with optical lattices
Author(s):Zeng, Liangwei(1,2); Zeng, Jianhua(1,2)Source: Advanced Photonics Volume: 1 Issue: 4 DOI: 10.1117/1.AP.1.4.046004 Published: July 1, 2019Abstract:Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) exhibits a variety of fascinating and unexpected macroscopic phenomena, and has attracted sustained attention in recent years - particularly in the field of solitons and associated nonlinear phenomena. Meanwhile, optical lattices have emerged as a versatile toolbox for understanding the properties and controlling the dynamics of BEC, among which the realization of bright gap solitons is an iconic result. However, the dark gap solitons are still experimentally unproven, and their properties in more than one dimension remain unknown. In light of this, we describe, numerically and theoretically, the formation and stability properties of gap-type dark localized modes in the context of ultracold atoms trapped in optical lattices. Two kinds of stable dark localized modes - gap solitons and soliton clusters - are predicted in both the one- and two-dimensional geometries. The vortical counterparts of both modes are also constructed in two dimensions. A unique feature is the existence of a nonlinear Bloch-wave background on which all above gap modes are situated. By employing linear-stability analysis and direct simulations, stability regions of the predicted modes are obtained. Our results offer the possibility of observing dark gap localized structures with cutting-edge techniques in ultracold atoms experiments and beyond, including in optics with photonic crystals and lattices. ?

The basic idea is to use a spatial light modulator to produce a POV and a spherical wave simultaneously. By modulating the divergence angle of the spherical wave, the POV and the spherical wave interfer. The number of interference fringes is used to realize the direct and rapid measurement of topological charge. Simulated and experimental results show that the interference fringes obtained by the method can be used to determine the topological charge of POVs, including the magnitude and symbol. Furthermore, the proposed in situ method is demonstrated to determine the topological charge of the POV array by measuring the interference pattern of a perfect vortex array and a spherical wave. The proposed in situ method is simple and effective. Therefore, it is of a significance for the application of orbital angular momentum control and information coding based on POVs. ? 2019, Science Press.
