The role of the intensity or detuning of the control field on AOB is explored, and results show that absorption, dispersion, and nonlinearity can be modified significantly by the control field due to quantum coherence and interference in multilevel atomic systems. Thus, tuning the intensity or detuning of the control field can manipulate the switch-up and switch-down thresholds, as well as the area of the bistable hysteresis loop. According to the controllability of AOB, we design various schemes to realize dynamical all-optical switching between the high and low outputs of two bistable curves for a fixed cavity input. In addition, dynamical all-optical memory switching can be implemented by adding a pulse sequence for the intensity or detuning of the control field. For appropriate parameters, such as the cooperative coefficient, the extinction ratio of the switching can be improved dramatically.","PeriodicalId":17976,"journal":{"name":"Laser Physics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139510330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At present, the power enhancement of narrow linewidth lasers is limited by the nonlinear and thermal effects of fiber, among which the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) effect is highly destructive due to its low threshold. The SBS effect is easily produced using a single frequency laser as the seed of a high power narrow linewidth laser directly. The Brillouin scattering threshold can be effectively increased by broadening the spectrum line at a single frequency. A spectral broadening technique for single frequency lasers based on superfluorescent white noise modulation was proposed. The broadband characteristics of the amplified spontaneous emission light source to generate noise voltage on the photodetector was employed, and the lithium niobate electro-optical modulator was driven to perform broadband phase modulation in a single frequency laser. The phase modulation broadening of the single frequency laser was carried out using superfluorescent white noise. Different linewidth broadening effects of single frequency lasers were realized by changing the amplitude of the white noise. An experimental platform of the four-stage main oscillation power amplification structure was built, and a high power narrow linewidth laser with output power of 2 kW and spectral linewidth of 0.15 nm (10 dB) was realized, which effectively inhibited the SBS effect of the laser.","PeriodicalId":17976,"journal":{"name":"Laser Physics","volume":"31 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139442939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The absorber has a covered bandwidth range of 300–4000 nm and a temperature range of 373–973 K. The average absorptance within the mentioned wavelength range is over 96.52%, and the efficiency of solar energy thermal conversion is above 0.9 at 373–973 K under a solar concentration factor of 1000, with a maximum efficiency of 0.9644. Analysis of its absorption mechanism using the finite-difference time-domain method indicates that the proposed solar absorber’s outstanding absorption performance is due to the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons, localized surface plasmon resonances, and cavity resonances enhanced electromagnetic fields. This result has also been validated by the impedance matching theory. Moreover, the proposed solar absorber exhibits insensitivity to different polarization angles and maintains a high absorption effect in the range of 0°–70° incidence angle. The designed solar absorber has potential applications in areas such as seawater purification, wastewater treatment, and steam power generation systems.","PeriodicalId":17976,"journal":{"name":"Laser Physics","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139093349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such a technique would allow high-precision inter-satellite positioning and tracking on communication and navigation constellations. Due to the size, weight and power constraints typical of low-earth-orbit (LEO) satellites, a simple solution is often preferred. Here, we show that a balanced homodyne detection (BHD) setup using a shaped single-mode local oscillator can achieve super-resolution despite typical photonic losses. We further analyze the impact of a fluctuating and fixed centroid misalignment due to satellite pointing issues, and find that fixed misalignment is comparatively more detrimental to the performance of a BHD setup. Thus, our study provides a practical assessment of BHD to achieve super-resolution on a modern LEO satellite platform. Finally, we discuss how our analysis can be extended to stellar sources for astronomical applications.","PeriodicalId":17976,"journal":{"name":"Laser Physics","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139093418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The HHG peaks shift to higher frequency by ω if the initial state is switched from ψ100 to ψ211 , and the HHG peaks shift to lower frequency by ω if the initial state is switched from ψ100 to ψ21−1 , the final state is always the ground state ψ100 . The helical phase patterns of the HHG vortices are investigated in connection with the atomic HHG peak-shifting and the angular momentum conservation law.
