摘要:为了更好地选择一个合适的的辅助物镜,基于辅助物镜的工作原理,从理论推导和实验仿真两方面出发,对常见双胶合形式的辅助物镜进行了结构优化设计。根据设计要求,合理选择辅助物镜的初始结构,并从理论上推导了各类像差。基于初始结构和优化目标,利用光学设计软件OSLO对2种形式的辅助物镜进行了结构优化和像差分析。之后对于创新型双胶合-厚弯月型辅助物镜进行设计优化,以文献中相似透镜的结构参数为该设计的初始结构,利用OSLO光学软件及设计经验,对其进行结构优化、像差分析及矫正。对2种形式的辅助物镜进行对比分析的结果表明,2种结构形式的辅助物镜经过优化后,其参数均能满足设计要求,但双胶合-厚弯月型的辅助物镜更适用于大像面的光学系统。

摘要:Owing to the constraints on the fabrication of γ-ray coding plates with many pixels, few studies have been carried out on γ-ray computational ghost imaging. Thus, the development of coding plates with fewer pixels is essential to achieve γ-ray computational ghost imaging. Based on the regional similarity between Hadamard subcoding plates, this study presents an optimization method to reduce the number of pixels of Hadamard coding plates. First, a moving distance matrix was obtained to describe the regional similarity quantitatively. Second, based on the matrix, we used two ant colony optimization arrangement algorithms to maximize the reuse of pixels in the regional similarity area and obtain new compressed coding plates. With full sampling, these two algorithms improved the pixel utilization of the coding plate, and the compression ratio values were 54.2% and 58.9%, respectively. In addition, three undersampled sequences (the Harr, Russian dolls, and cake-cutting sequences) with different sampling rates were tested and discussed. With different sampling rates, our method reduced the number of pixels of all three sequences, especially for the Russian dolls and cake-cutting sequences. Therefore, our method can reduce the number of pixels, manufacturing cost, and difficulty of the coding plate, which is beneficial for the implementation and application of γ-ray computational ghost imaging.

摘要:Co-phase and co-focus detection is one of the key technologies for large-aperture segmented mirror telescopes. In this paper, a new edge sensor based on fringes of equal thickness is developed, which can detect each segment's relative piston, tilt, and tip errors from the interferograms. Based on the co-focus demand for many ground-based seeing limited segmented mirror telescopes, an edge sensor prototype based on such a principle is built and applied in the indoor segmented mirror experiment system in the lab. According to the co-focus requirement of the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope, many simulations and experiments are carried out for co-focus error detection of the segmented mirror system. Experiment results show that the co-focus accuracy is better than 0."02 rms, which can meet the co-focus requirements of most large or extremely large segmented mirror astronomical telescopes.

摘要:多光子纠缠是量子通讯、光量子计算的核心技术。现在普遍使用的纠缠光源是自发参量下转换产生的两光子纠缠,虽已取得很大的成就,但离量子计算等的应用需求还很远,需要从理论和实验两个方面探索新路。
本文研究了受激辐射射基础过程,受激辐射的机理,发现此过程最初产生的两光子态的量子性质与受激辐射物质的对称性密切相关。如果受激辐射物质的电子态有宇称,它的波函数也有宇称,如原子、有对称中心的分子、有反演对称的晶体等,这类物质的电子态都有宇称和反射对称性。有宇称的物质的受激辐射过程遵守宇称守恒,受激辐射产生的两光子态有宇称,是迭加纠缠态。这样的两个纠缠光子经过平行平面谐振腔的作用,再通过受激辐射,不断重复这个过程,最终产生多光子纠缠。
本文主要结果和结论是:有宇称的物质的受激辐射产生多光子纠缠态。激光器物质的电子态如有宇称,则激光器谐振腔内(平行平面腔)的受激辐射产生的多光子态是纠缠态,并可从对称结构的双向单模激光器输出。
理论给出多光子纠缠的表示式。研制成一台对称结构双向输出单模He-Ne激光器,进行了多光子纠缠态的实验验证,实验结果与理论预期相符。

摘要:Bound states of solitons, alias soliton molecules (SMs), are well known in one-dimensional (1D) systems, while making stable bound states of multidimensional solitons is a challenging problem because of the underlying instabilities. Here we propose a scheme for the creation of stable (2+1)D and (3+1)D optical SMs in a gas of cold Rydberg atoms, in which electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) is induced by a control laser field. We show that, through the interplay of the EIT and the strong long-range interaction between the Rydberg atoms, the system gives rise to giant nonlocal Kerr nonlinearity, which in turn supports stable (2+1)D spatial optical SMs, as well as ring-shaped soliton necklaces, including rotating ones. They feature a large size, low generation power, and can be efficiently manipulated by tuning the nonlocality degree of the Kerr nonlinearity. Stable (3+1)D spatiotemporal optical SMs, composed of fundamental or vortex solitons, with low power and ultraslow propagation velocity, can also be generated in the system. These SMs can be stored and retrieved through the switching off and on of the control laser field. The findings reported here suggest applications to data processing and transmission in optical systems.

摘要:Plasmon decay via the surface or interface is a critical process for practical energy conversion and plasmonic catalysis. However, the relationship between plasmon damping and the coupling between the plasmon and 2D materials is still unclear. The spectral splitting due to plasmon-exciton interaction impedes the conventional single-particle method to evaluate the plasmon damping rate by the spectral linewidth directly. Here, we investigated the interaction between a single gold nanorod (GNR) and 2D materials using the single-particle spectroscopy method assisted with in situ nanomanipulation technique by comparing scattering intensity and linewidth together. Our approach allows us to indisputably identify that the plasmon-exciton coupling in the GNR-WSe2 hybrid would induce plasmon damping. We can also isolate the contribution between the charge transfer channel and resonant energy transfer channel for the plasmon decay in the GNR-graphene hybrid by comparing that with thin hBN layers as an intermediate medium to block the charge transfer. We find out that the contact layer between the GNR and 2D materials contributes most of the interfacial plasmon damping. These findings contribute to a deep understanding of interfacial excitonic effects on the plasmon and 2D materials hybrid.

摘要:A photonics-based short-time Fourier transform (STFT) system is proposed and experimentally demonstrated based on stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) without using high-frequency electronic devices and equipment. The wavelength of a distributed feedback laser diode is periodically swept by using a low-speed periodic sawtooth/triangular driving current. The periodic frequency-sweep optical signal is modulated by the signal under test (SUT) and then injected into a section of SBS medium. The optical signal from another laser diode as the pump wave is reversely injected into the SBS medium. After simply detecting the forward transmission optical signals in a low-speed photodetector, the STFT of the SUT can be implemented. The system is characterized by the absence of any high-frequency electronic devices or equipment. An experiment is performed. The STFT of a variety of RF signals is carried out in a 4-GHz bandwidth. The dynamic frequency resolution is demonstrated to be around 60 MHz.

摘要:Simultaneous ground-state cooling of multiple degenerate mechanical modes is a tough issue in optomechanical system due to the existence of the dark mode effect. Here we propose a universal and scalable method to break the dark mode effect of two degenerate mechanical modes by introducing the cross-Kerr (CK) nonlinearity. At most four stable steady states can be achieved in our scheme in the presence of the CK effect, different from the bistable behavior of the standard optomechanical system. Under the constant input laser power, the effective detuning and mechanical resonant frequency can be modulated by the CK nonlinearity, which results in an optimal CK coupling strength for cooling. Similarly, there will be an optimal input laser power for cooling when the CK coupling strength stays fixed. Our scheme can be extended to break the dark mode effect of multiple degenerate mechanical modes by introducing more than one CK effects. To fulfill the requirement of the simultaneous ground-state cooling of N multiple degenerate mechanical modes N-1 CK effects with different strengths are needed. Our proposal provides new insights in dark mode control and might pave the way to manipulating of multiple quantum states in macroscopic system.

摘要:A photonics-assisted microwave pulse detection and frequency measurement scheme is proposed. The unknown microwave pulse is converted to the optical domain and then injected into a fiber loop for pulse replication, which makes it easier to identify the microwave pulse with large pulse repetition interval (PRI), whereas stimulated Brillouin scattering-based frequency-to-time mapping (FTTM) is utilized to measure the carrier frequency of the microwave pulse. A sweep optical carrier is generated and modulated by the unknown microwave pulse and a continuous-wave single-frequency reference, generating two different frequency sweep optical signals, which are combined and used as the probe wave to detect a fixed Brillouin gain spectrum. When the optical signal is detected in a photodetector, FTTM is realized and the frequency of the microwave pulse can be determined. An experiment is performed. For a fiber loop containing a 210-m fiber, pulse replication and FTTM of the pulses with a PRI of 20 {\mu}s and pulse width of 1.20, 1.00, 0.85, and 0.65 {\mu}s are realized. Under a certain sweep frequency chirp rate of 0.978 THz/s, the measurement errors are below {\pm}12 and {\pm}5 MHz by using one pair of pulses and multiple pairs of pulses, respectively. The influence of the sweep frequency chirp rate and pulse width on the measurement error has also been studied. To a certain extent, the faster the frequency sweep, the greater the frequency measurement error. For a specific sweep frequency chirp rate, the measurement error is almost unaffected by the pulse width to be measured.

摘要:Single-shot ultrafast optical imaging plays a very important role in the detection of transient scenes, especially in capturing irreversible or stochastic dynamic scenes. To break the limit of time response speed of electronic devices, such as charge-coupled device (CCD) or complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) detectors, ultrafast optical imaging techniques usually convert the time information of a transient scene into the wavelength, angle, space or spatial frequency of the illumination light in previous studies. In this work, we propose a novel polarization-resolved ultrafast mapping photography (PUMP) technique by converting the time information into the polarization. Here, the spatiotemporal information of a dynamic scene is loaded into a rotationally polarized illumination laser pulse, and a polarization filtering in imaging detection and a deconvolution algorithm in image reconstruction are used to extract the original dynamic scene. In our PUMP system, the temporal resolution is 850 fs, the spatial resolution is 28.5 lp/mm at 700 micrometer by 700 micrometer field of view, and the number of frames is 16. By using PUMP, a spatiotemporal dynamics of femtosecond laser ablation in an indium tin oxide film on glass substrate is successfully captured. PUMP provides a new solution for measuring the transient scenes in a snapshot, which will bring a very wide range of applications in the field of ultrafast science.

摘要:Besides a linear momentum, optical fields carry an angular momentum (AM), which have two intrinsic components: one is spin angular momentum (SAM) related to the polarization state of the field, and the other is orbital angular momentum (OAM) caused by the helical phase due to the existence of topological azimuthal charge. The two AM components of the optical field may not be independent of each other, and the Spin-to-Orbital AM conversion (STOC) under focusing will create a spin-dependent optical vortex in the longitudinal filed. Here we demonstrate a new mechanism (or novel way, new way, specific process) for the STOC based on a radial intensity gradient. The radial phase provides an effective way to control the local AM density, which induce counterintuitive orbital motion of isotropic particles in optical tweezers without intrinsic OAM. Our work not only provides fundamental insights into the spin-orbit interaction of light, but also push towards possible applications in optical micro-manipulation.

摘要:Dielectric microspheres or microbeads can squeeze light into the subwavelength scale via photonic nanojet (PNJ) focusing. This enables strong light-matter interactions within its focus and induces extraordinary effects such as enhancements in light emission, signal collection and various other applications. However, critical challenges exist on how to efficiently and precisely loading the studied objects into the desired location of the PNJ focusing, and subsequently measure the field and signal of interests precisely and reliably. Such technique is currently missing. We present for the first time a unique microwell-decorated microsphere lens (u-well lens), with a semi-open microwell sample compartment directly fabricated on top of the microsphere lens. The u-well lens confines PNJ in a semi-open microwell and allows passive trapping of individual micro-object into the PNJ focusing area with high efficiency and spatial accuracy. We demonstrate that individual fluorescent microsphere of different sizes can be readily introduced to the designated location with loading efficiency >70% and generates reproducible enhanced fluorescence signals with standard deviation better than that can be quantitatively measured. A comprehensive analysis on the optical properties of the u-well lens reveals the synergistic effect of field enhancement and collection efficiency on the optical enhancement. We finally employ this special microsphere lens for fluorescent-bead-based biotin concentration analysis. The results suggest a greatly enhanced sensitivity and highly improved detection limit, opening the door for its application in highly sensitive and quantitative detection.

摘要:Optical microcavities have widely been employed to enhance either the optical excitation or the photon emission processes for boosting light matter interactions at nanoscale. When both the excitation and emission processes are simultaneously facilitated by the optical resonances provided by the microcavities, as referred to the dual-resonance condition in this article, the performances of many nanophotonic devices approach to the optima. In this work, we present versatile accessing of dual-resonance conditions in deterministically coupled quantum-dot(QD)-micopillars, which enables emission from exciton (X) - charged exciton (CX) transition with improved single-photon purity. In addition, the rarely observed up-converted single-photon emission process is achieved under dual-resonance condition. We further exploit the vectorial nature of the high-order cavity modes to significantly improve the excitation efficiency under the dual-resonance condition. The dual-resonance enhanced light-matter interactions in the quantum regime provides a viable path for developing integrated quantum photonic devices based on cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) effect e.g., highly-efficient quantum light sources and quantum logical gates.

摘要:Spin-momentum locking is an intrinsic property of surface electromagnetic fields and its study has led to the discovery of photonic spin lattices and diverse applications. Previously, dispersion was ignored in the spin-momentum locking, giving rise to abnormal phenomena contradictory to the physical realities. Here, we formulate four dispersive spin-momentum equations for surface waves, revealing universally that the transverse spin vector is locked with the momentum. The locking property obeys the right-hand rule in the dielectric but the left-hand rule in the dispersive metal/magnetic materials. In addition to the dispersion, the structural features can affect the spin-momentum locking significantly. Remarkably, an extraordinary longitudinal spin originating from the coupling polarization ellipticity is uncovered even for the purely polarized state. We further demonstrate the spin-momentum locking properties with diverse photonic topological lattices by engineering the rotating symmetry. The findings open up opportunities for designing robust nanodevices with practical importance in chiral quantum optics.

摘要:Cavity optomechanics is important in both quantum information processing and basic physics research. In this paper, we propose an optomechanical lattice which manifests non-Hermitian physics . We first use the non-Bloch band theory to investigate the energy spectrum and transmission property of an optomechanical lattice. The generalized Brillouin zone of the system is calculated with the help of the resultant. And the periodical boundary condition (PBC) and open boundary condition energy spectrum are given, subsequently. By introducing probe laser on different sites we observed the directional amplification of the system. The direction of the amplification is analyzed combined with the non-Hermitian skin effect. The frequency that supports the amplification is analyzed by considering the PBC energy spectrum. By introducing probe laser on one site we investigate the onsite transmission property. Optomechanically induced transparency (OMIT) can be achieved in our system. By varying the parameters and size of the system, the OMIT peak can be effectively modulated or even turned into optomechanically induced amplification . Our system shows its potential as the function of a single-way signal filter. And our model can be extended to other non-Hermitian Bosonic model which may possess topological features and bipolar non-Hermitian skin effect.

摘要:Silicon carbide has recently emerged as a promising photonics material due to its unique properties, including possessing strong second- and third-order nonlinear coefficients and hosting various color centers that can be utilized for a wealth of quantum applications. Here, we report the design and demonstration of octave-spanning microcombs in a 4H-silicon-carbide-on-insulator platform for the first time. Such broadband operation is enabled by optimized nanofabrication achieving >1 million intrinsic quality factors in a 36-$\mu$m-radius microring resonator, and careful dispersion engineering by investigating the dispersion properties of different mode families. For example, for the fundamental transverse-electric mode whose dispersion can be tailored by simply varying the microring waveguide width, we realized a microcomb spectrum covering the wavelength range from 1100 nm to 2400 nm with an on-chip power near 120 mW. While the observed comb state is verified to be chaotic and not soliton, attaining such a large bandwidth is a crucial step towards realizing $f$-2$f$ self-referencing. In addition, we have also observed coherent soliton-crystal state for the fundamental transverse-magnetic mode, which exhibits stronger dispersion than the fundamental transverse-electric mode and hence a narrower bandwidth.

摘要:Optical lattices with periodic potentials have attracted great attention in modern optics and photonics, enabling extensive applications in atomic manipulation, optical trapping, optical communications, imaging, sensing, etc. In the last decade, the generation of optical lattices has been widely investigated by various approaches such as multi-plane-wave interferometer, beam superposition, spatial light modulators, nanophotonic circuits, etc. However, all of the previous state-of-the-art works are restricted to only one or two dimensions of the light field, which cannot fulfill the increasing demand on complex light manipulation. Full-dimensional and dynamic control of the light field, including spatial amplitude, phase and polarization, is quite challenging and indispensable for the generation of sophisticated optical lattices. Here, we propose and demonstrate a reconfigurable integrated full-dimensional optical lattice generator, i.e. a photonic emitting array (PEA) enabling reconfigurable and full-dimensional manipulation of optical lattices, in which 4x4 photonic emitting units (PEUs) with 64 thermo-optic microheaters are densely integrated on a silicon chip. By engineering each PEU precisely with independent and complete control of optical properties of amplitude, phase and polarization, various optical vortex lattices, cylindrical vector beam lattices, and vector vortex beam lattices can be generated and reconfigured in the far field. The demonstrated integrated optical lattice generator paves the way for the miniaturization, full-dimensional control and enhanced flexibility of complex light manipulation.

摘要:A photonics-enabled wavelet-like transform system, characterized by multi-resolution time-frequency analysis, is proposed based on a typical stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) pump-probe setup using an optical nonlinear frequency-sweep signal. In the pump path, a continuous-wave optical signal is injected into an SBS medium to generate an SBS gain. In the probe path, a periodic nonlinear frequency-sweep optical signal with a time-varying chirp rate is generated, which is then modulated at a Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM) by the electrical signal under test (SUT). The optical signal from the MZM is selectively amplified by the SBS gain and converted back to the electrical domain using a low-speed photodetector, implementing the periodic SBS-based frequency-to-time mapping (FTTM). The frequency-domain information corresponding to different periods is mapped to the time domain via the FTTM in the form of low-speed electrical pulses, which is then spliced to analyze the time-frequency relationship of the SUT in real-time. The time-varying chirp rate in each sweep period makes the signals with different frequencies have different frequency resolutions in the FTTM process, which is very similar to the characteristics of the wavelet transform, so we call it wavelet-like transform. An experiment is carried out. Multi-resolution time-frequency analysis of a variety of RF signals is carried out in a 4-GHz bandwidth limited only by the equipment.

摘要:The super-oscillation lens (SOL) can achieve super-resolution focusing but have to trade-off with weaker hotspots and higher sidebands. We propose a single compound SOL to achieve reflective confocal imaging in principle without additional lenses. The designed SOL consists of an outer lens and an inner lens which play the role of focusing lens and collective lens respectively. As a result, focusing and collecting functions can be simultaneously realized. The improved system can achieve excellent imaging performance with an ultra-high resolution (<0.34{\lambda}/NA, NA stands for numerical aperture), and almost negligible side lobe ratio and no side bands, which proved superior to conventional laser scanning confocal microscopy and single SOL. This technology can be attractive for a variety of applications in super-resolution imaging and biomedical sciences.
