This novel phenomena formed in a noise like background. When the pump power was properly controlled and the polarization controller was carefully adjusted, a noise like mode locked pulse was modulated by a Q-switched pulse envelope, which resulted in the Q-switched noise-like pulse formation. In a single pulse envelope, there exist many mode locked pulses that have fundamental repetition rate which is corresponded to the cavity period. When the pump power was carefully increased from 760 mW to 1000 mW, the repetition rate of the adjacent pulse envelope can increased from 34 to 41.1 kHz, and then intra-cavity pulse energy of a envelope reached about 609 nJ. This phenomenon was first observed in thulium-doped fiber laser. It will add experimental basis for studying of the pulse dynamics in fiber lasers.","PeriodicalId":381981,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 4th Optoelectronics Global Conference (OGC)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133406627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper proposes a new P-Cycle construction algorithm ERPA (Extended cycle Restriction Based P-Cycle Construction Algorithm), which is based on the variance, mean and redundancy of unprotected working capacity on all candidate cycles. In the process of cycle expansion, the algorithm chooses the extended candidate cycle whose variance, mean and redundancy satisfy the conditions as the final candidate cycle of the current round, which can guarantee the quality of the extended cycle and limit the number of P-Cycle cycles that complete the protection; When the values of unprotected-links(UPL), the redundancy, mean and the parameter n satisfy the stop condition, the cycle expansion is stopped, so that the number of cycles and the cycle length can be effectively balanced. In the simulation process, the ERPA algorithm is simulated by using the COST293 European Optical Network (EON) topology model, and the performance under different n values is compared and analyzed. The simulation results show that ERPA algorithm needs fewer cycles, has higher protection capacity efficiency and lower total time consumption under the same resource and work capacity, which makes the proposed algorithm more feasible and effective.","PeriodicalId":381981,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 4th Optoelectronics Global Conference (OGC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129475941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The readout circuit includes 32 transimpedance amplifiers, double-threshold comparators and time-to-digital converters (TDC). With transimpedance amplifier based on closed-loop structure of inverter-like amplifier circuit, and post-stage differential output amplifier, the readout circuit can achieve high gain, large bandwidth and low noise. The double threshold comparator was used to solve walking error. With two-step architecture combining 8-bit coarse counting and 6-bit fine counting, the dynamic range of the receiver is increased by coarse counting while its resolution is improved by combining fine counting. When the system emits a laser pulse, the receiver starts timing and converts the echo signal to a voltage signal. When a stop timing signal is generated, the system quantifies the time of flight to 14-bit digital signal. The developed receiver demonstrates the pulse responsivity of $mathbf{5.4}times 10^{5} mathbf{V}/mathbf{W}$, the 3dB bandwidth of 142.9 MHz, the minimum detectable optical power of about 26.7 nW $(mathbf{SNR}=10)$, and the time resolution of 200 ps.

In this paper, a high-speed photon counting system is proposed with an active quench and reset integrated circuit (AQR-IC) that drives a near infrared InGaAs GM-APD. The avalanche current is converted into voltage signal by utilizing parasitic capacitance of APD and circuit's input port. Multi-stage inverters detect the induced voltage, and generate an output TTL pulse indicating occurrence of avalanche event. At the same time, the active quench circuit is introduced to stop avalanche quickly. Then the active reset circuit makes APD working in Geiger mode after a programmable delay time which could be set by field programmable gate array(FPGA). The adjustable dead time enormously improve the flexibility of photon counting system applications. The proposed AQR-IC was fabricated in SMIC $mathbf{0.18 mu m}$ CMOS process. Applied for InGaAs GM-APD, experimental results show that the circuit is capable of fast quenching and recovering. The system provides adjustable dead time from 64 ns up to $mathbf{163.6 mu s}$ with a setting resolution of 20 ns, corresponding to a maximum counting rate of 15.6 MHz.

Although CKD usually could be managed by general internists, such a way of treatment can be applied only when significant symptoms appear, which is very slow. It has also been reported that CKD could be characterized by means of glomeruli, and classified by the stages of disease severity for early treatment. However, due to lack of reliable method to detect the cellular-level microstructures for disease severity characterization, the diagnosis is troublesome, and thus, the treatments might be delayed while the best treatment time could be missed. For early detection of CKD, it is imperative to develop reliable tools to detect and characterize the disease at an early stage with minimal or noninvasiveness. For this research, the micro-optical coherence tomography $mathbf{(mu OCT)}$ was assessment it feasibility as a cellular-level structure imaging tool in kidney disease diagnosis at an early stage. Specifically, by measuring the number of glomeruli within a volumetric kidney tissue, a new diagnostic criteria is also established.

Thy typical microstructure of both deposition strategy were ferrite and can be divided into two zones: remelted zone and non-remelted zone. The non-remelted zone showed typical columnar crystal morphology while the structure of remelted zone was homogenized. Compared with SDS deposition strategy, the microstructure of CDS deposition strategy had shorter columnar grains and finer grains. The relative densities of SDS and CDS deposition strategies were 98.1 and 97.3, respectively, indicating that SDS had lower porosity. The fatigue strength of SDS deposition strategy was higher than that of CDS deposition strategy, which were 320 MPa and 200 MPa. There were more defects in CDS deposition strategy, which accelerated the initiation and propagation of cracks.
