The emergence of different natural cellulosic materials as potential candidates for the replacement of synthetic ones is promising, but their sustainability from the point of view of material design is still in question. Machining of the surface of cellulosic components for making sound-dampening materials has a critical effect on determining their surface condition. Laser speckle is an emerging tool for surface analysis of a variety of materials, and it has important applications in material design and analysis. As a cutting-edge research tool, ultrasonic wave technology has maintained a significant contribution to the design and structural monitoring of composite materials. The present work uses date palm leaf fibers for composite reinforcement. The sound-dampening properties, such as sound absorption and transmission, were analyzed on the basis of surface roughness observed with the laser speckle technique and modified by ultrasonically blended surfactants. The surface roughness of the synthesized material was found to increase with sonication time with an <italic toggle=\"yes\">R</italic>\u0000<sup>2</sup> value of 0.944 and observed fluctuation in roughness data on the surface of the material. The sound absorption coefficient is 0.98 with a transmission loss of 60 dB, for which the material is classified as an ASTM E1050 Class A acoustic material. Further, the method of laser speckle-based roughness estimation is found to be potential tool for the design of any type of quieter material.","PeriodicalId":17976,"journal":{"name":"Laser Physics","volume":"2018 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138684838","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}

It is shown that the influence of electron motion parallel to the plasma surface on the absorbed intensity becomes distinguishable only at relatively low absolute values of the permittivity. Calculations of the dependences of the yield of hard bremsstrahlung x-rays on the angle of incidence of laser radiation and on the energy interval in which the yield of bremsstrahlung is measured are in qualitative agreement with the experimental data, if we assume that the electron concentration in the skin layer is relatively low (approximately 5–7 times the critical concentration).","PeriodicalId":17976,"journal":{"name":"Laser Physics","volume":"2018 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138684837","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}

We discuss the spatial dependence of FWM processes via experimental parameters for different conditions of the OAM of vortex light. We have found that the intensity and phase distributions of the new generated light depends strongly on the OAM number of the optical vortex light.

Depending on the seed source parameters, while keeping MO parameters fixed, we observe diverse mode-locked operations from the MO, generating stable single, double, triple and even up to a group of seven pulses. The probability of the occurrence of such mode-locked operations is studied. There can be different operating regimes in a particular multipulse operation. We find that there is an optimum spectral width of the seed source for which the probability of generating mode-locked stable train of single pulses from a fiber MO is maximum. Further, we find that the power of the seed source has less influence on the mode-locking state of the fiber MO; however, the probability of single or double pulse operation is relatively higher than that of multipulse operation at higher power of the seed source. These experimental observations will enrich the database of multipulse patterns and help in understanding pulse dynamics in the fiber MO. Suitably chosen seed source parameters can generate the desired pulse pattern. Such tailored outputs could have prospective applications in laser micromachining and high bit rate data transfer in optical networks.","PeriodicalId":17976,"journal":{"name":"Laser Physics","volume":"30 1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138684975","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}

Under standard circumstances for laser-induced plasma (<italic toggle=\"yes\">T</italic>\u0000<sub>e</sub> = 1 eV and <italic toggle=\"yes\">N</italic>\u0000<sub>e</sub> = 10<sup>16</sup> cm<sup>−3</sup>), we simulated the emission spectrum of a binary alloy (with 70 wt.% Cu–30 wt.% Al). We used the Saha ionization equilibrium formulas to calculate the population of neutral and ionized species of each constituent element, and the Boltzmann distribution to estimate the intensities of emission lines with radiative transition probabilities. The Stark broadening equation is then used to determine the line broadening, yielding a Lorentzian profile for each line. The sum of line emissions of all constituent species will approximate the alloy’s LIBS spectra in an assumption of ideal analytical plasma. Then, we generated random errors in the intensities of spectral lines ranging from 5% to 35%. To investigate temperature estimation accuracy, we utilized three well-established approaches: the Boltzmann plot (BP) method, the Saha–Boltzmann plot (SBP) method, and the Multi-elemental SBP (MESBP) method. As intensity error increases from 5% to 35%, the estimated temperature in the BP method deviates from 0.25% to 18.3%. Whereas the intensity error is almost unaffected using the SBP method and the MESBP method. The temperature deviation is less than 2% in both situations. This study is relevant to calibration-free LIBS, in which the exact temperature determination is crucial for the abundance estimation of trace, major, and minor elements.","PeriodicalId":17976,"journal":{"name":"Laser Physics","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138684782","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}
