Experimental and theoretical analysis of nondegenerate ultrabroadband chirped pulse optical parametric amplification

Experimental investigations of nondegenerate ultrabroadband chirped pulse optical parametric amplification have been carried out. The general mathematical expressions for evaluating parametric bandwidth, gain and gain bandwidth for arbitrary three-wave mixing parametric amplifiers are presented. In our experiments, a type-I noncollinear phase-matched optical parametric amplifier based on lithium triborate, which was pumped by a 5-ns second harmonic pulses from a Q-switched Nd:YAG operating at 10 Hz, seeded by a 14-fs Ti:sapphire laser at 800 nm, was presented. The 0.85 nJ energy of input chirped signal pulse with 57-FWHM has been amplified to 3.1 muJ at pump intensity 3 GW/cm(2), the corresponding parametric gain reached 3.6 x 10(3), the 53 nm-FWHM gain spectrum bandwidth of output signal has been obtained. The large gain and broad gain bandwidth, which have been confirmed experimentally, provide great potentials to amplify efficiently the broad bandwidth femtosecond light pulses to generate new extremes in power, intensity, and pulse duration using optical parametric chirped pulse amplifiers pumped by powerful nanosecond systems.

Stacking chirped pulse optical parametric amplification

Stacking chirped pulse optical parametric amplification based on a home-built Yb(3+)-doped mode-locked fiber laser and an all-fiber pulse stacker has been demonstrated. Energic 11 mJ shaped pulses with pulse duration of 2.3 ns and a net total gain of higher than 1.1 x 10(7) at fluctuation less than 2% rms are achieved by optical parametric amplification pumped by a Q-switched Nd:YAG frequency-doubled laser, which provides a simple and efficient amplification scheme for temporally shaped pulses by stacking chirped pulse.

Reduce of threshold of laser inducing breakdown in atmosphere by introducing an electric spark

We report laser-generated plasmas in atmosphere with electrical spark generated by a synchronization circuit. The breakdown thresholds under the conditions that the electrical spark is used and not used are compared. The breakdown threshold has a distinct decrease after the electrical spark is used. Breakdown thresholds as a function of atmosphere pressure have also been measured at laser wavelengths 532 nm and 1064 rim for the laser pulse width of 15ns. We also discuss the principle and performances of the ionized atmosphere by Nd:YAG laser under the condition of electrical spark introduction. Multiphoton ionization and cascade ionization play important roles in the whole process of atmosphere ionization. The free electron induced by electrical spark can supply the initialization free electron number for multiphoton ionization and cascade ionization. A model for breakdown in atmosphere, which is in good agreement with the experimental results, is described.

ICP-OES的悬浮进样方式及ICP-MS的碰撞/反应池技术的研究与应用

本论文分为两部分：1. 综述部分（第一章和第二章），评述了悬浮进样方式在电感耦合等离子体发射光谱法（ICP-OES）中的研究与应用；电感耦合等离子体质谱（ICP-MS）中碰撞/反应池技术研究的新进展。2. 实验部分（第三章至第九章），内容包括针对不同性质的样品悬浮液选择适当的稳定剂和悬浮雾化ICP-OES的校准方法研究；以混合碰撞/反应气体解决难度较大的高纯氧化钕中稀土杂质测定的干扰问题；以及浊点萃取-石墨炉原子吸收法测定环境样品中痕量镉、氢化物发生-原子荧光光谱法测定铅基合金中砷和植物样品中锗等实用性强的分析方法研究。 ICP的传统进样方式是将样品转化成水溶液形式，以溶液方式进样。然而大多数样品是以固态形式存在，许多样品相当难溶或难熔。采用直接固体进样方法对这些样品进行分析，是分析工作者追求的目标之一。悬浮液进样是一种固体直接进样方法，除了具有其它固体进样技术的优点外，其最大优点是可以像溶液雾化一样用标准水溶液校准。本研究针对实际分析工作中遇到的具体样品，对悬浮进样ICP-OES技术进行了比较深入的研究，成功解决了样品处理繁琐和样品难以处理等困难。对特殊地质样品和激光晶体材料（Nd:YAG）的悬浮进样分析进行了探索。主要工作为：①建立分析地质样品中主量和微量元素的方法，标准水溶液可以成功地用于校准。优点是可以同时对地质样品中的Si和其它元素进行分析，避免了传统分析时需分别处理样品的麻烦。②探索了分析铌钽矿中铌和钽的应用。由于铌和钽具有强抗化学腐蚀性，所以溶液进样分析时样品处理过程复杂。结果表明，以标准水溶液校准时，只要样品研磨时间延长至5 h，即可获得悬浮进样的满意的回收率。③研究了分析掺钕钇铝石榴石(Nd:YAG)中钕掺杂量的可行性。研究表明，加入适量聚丙烯酸作分散剂并调节pH为6，可以得到稳定悬浮液；以通用标准加入法（GSAM）校准可以得到满意的结果。 我国的稀土资源占世界的80％以上，高纯稀土氧化物是高科技领域中的重要材料。碰撞/反应池技术是目前四极杆ICP-MS消除干扰的先进技术，可以选择性地减少某些基体干扰，使背景和检测限得到显著的改进。本实验选择氧化钕（有7个同位素）作为研究对象，采用碰撞/反应池技术重点解决四极杆ICP-MS方法对高纯Nd2O3中稀土杂质进行测定时，基体Nd对Tb、Dy和Ho严重的氧化物或氢氧化物干扰难题。研究结果如下：①在四极杆高分辨率模式下，可以消除Nd对Pr的相邻峰的拖尾干扰；②采用碰撞/反应池技术，设计了10% O2-10% Ar-80% He混合气体作为碰撞/反应气，将Tb、Dy和Ho分别转化为相应的氧化物离子进行测定，成功地消除了基体Nd对Ho的干扰；Nd对Tb和Dy造成干扰的表观浓度显著降低。本方法可直接测定纯度为6N的高纯Nd2O3中的Ho；对纯度为6N的高纯Nd2O3中的Tb和Dy进行扣除，可以分析纯度达5N的高纯Nd2O3中的Tb和Dy。与文献报道的其它消除基体Nd干扰的方法相比较，此方法能够对纯度更高的Nd2O3进行直接分析，且操作简便。此方法也可进一步拓宽，有望解决其它轻稀土氧化物对中重稀土检测的质谱干扰问题。 论文的7～9章的工作包括：浊点萃取-GFAAS测定环境样品中痕量镉、HG-AFS分析铅基合金中砷和植物样品中锗的研究。针对实际分析工作中的具体困难，以上工作分别解决了分析元素含量低、测定干扰严重及样品处理的问题，建立了实用性强、准确度高的分析方法，具有实际应用价值。

Influence of processing medium on frictional wear properties of ball bearing steel prepared by laser surface melting coupled with bionic principles

Coupling with bionic principles, an attempt to improve the wear resistance of ball bearing steel (GCr15) with biomimetic units on the surface was made using a pulsed Nd: YAG laser. Air and water film was employed as processing medium, respectively. The microstructures of biomimeitc units were examined by scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction was used to describe the microstructure and identify the phases as functions of different mediums as well as water film with different thicknesses. The results indicated that the microstructure zones in the biomimetic specimens processed with water film were more refined and had better wear resistance increased by 55.8% in comparison with that processed in air; a significant improvement in microhardness was achieved by laser surface melting. The application of water film provided considerable microstructural changes and much more regular grain shape in biomimetic units, which played a key role in improving the wear resistance of ball bearing steel.

Characteristics of plasma induced by interaction of a free-oscillated laser pulse with a coal target in air and combustible gas

Plasma in the air is successfully induced by a free-oscillated Nd:YAG laser pulse with a peak power of 10(2-3) W. The initial free electrons for the cascade breakdown process are from the ablated particles from the surface of a heated coal target, likewise induced by the focused laser beam. The laser field compensates the energy loss of the plasma when the corresponding temperature and the images are investigated by fitting the experimental spectra of B-2 Sigma(+) -> X-2 Sigma(+) band of CN radicals in the plasma with the simulated spectra and a 4-frame CCD camera. The electron density is estimated using a simplified Kramer formula. As this interaction occurs in a gas mixture of hydrogen and oxygen, the formation and development of the plasma are weakened or restrained due to the chaining branch reaction in which the OH radicals are accumulated and the laser energy is consumed. Moreover, this laser ignition will initiate the combustion or explosion process of combustible gas and the minimum ignition energy is measured at different initial pressures. The differences in the experimental results compared to those induced by a nanosecond Q-switched laser pulse with a peak power of 10(6-8) W are also discussed. (C) 2009 Professor T. Nejat Veziroglu.

42CrMo激光焊焊缝组织

42CrMo合金钢C含量高、合金元素含量多、淬硬倾向大,焊接性能差。激光焊接具有功率密度高、焊接变形小等优点,适合焊接传统工艺难焊的同种或异种金属。通过额定功率为3kW的Nd∶YAG固体激光器焊接42CrMo,采用光学显微镜(OM)、扫描电镜(SEM)、X衍射、硬度仪分析了焊缝区域组织、成分和硬度变化。研究结果表明:焊缝区域组织为马氏体,热影响完全淬火区的组织为马氏体+贝氏体组织,热影响不完全淬火区的组织为贝氏体。从焊缝正面到焊缝背面的硬度分布表明:由于焊缝正面有保护气体的作用提高了焊缝正面熔池的冷却速度,使焊缝背面的硬度低于焊缝正面的硬度。

激光诱导击穿光谱(LIBS)已成功地运用于固体、液体、气体样品中微量元素的测量以及微生物、细菌等的鉴别分析上,而在植物样品上面的应用则是一个较新的课题。该实验用纳秒Nd:YAG激光器击穿真空冻干的土豆、百合样品,用光纤光谱仪测量了其LIBS光谱。通过鉴别、分析LIBS光谱,得到了这两种样品中微量元素的成分。并且对土豆干和百合干中Ca,Na,K,Fe,Al,Mg六种金属元素典型谱线的强度进行了统计分析,并由此得到了样品中这六种微量元素含量的对比情况。实验结果表明土豆干中的Ca和Na等含量都明显高于百合干,而百合干中Mg的含量较高。实验结果还表明用LIBS技术检测、对比冻干植物样品中微量元素含量是一种快速、有效的分析方法。

Microelements in Potato and Lily Samples Studied by Laser-Induced Breakdown spectroscopy Technology

A LIBS setup was built in the Institute of Modern Physics. In our experiments, LIBS spectra produced by infrared radiation of Nd : YAG nanosecond laser with 100 and 150 mJ pulse energy, respectively, were measured by fiber optic spectrometer in the ranges of 230-430 run and 430-1080 nm with a delay time of 1.7 and gate width of 2 ms for potato and lily samples prepared by vacuum freeze-dried technique. The lines from different metal elements such as K, Ca, Na, Mg, Fe, Al, Mn and Ti, and nonmetal elements such as C, N, O and H, and some molecular spectra from C-2, CaO, and CN were identified according to their wavelengths. The relative content of the six microelements, Ca, Na, K, Fe, Al, and Mg in the samples were analyzed according to their representative line intensities. By comparison we found that there are higher relative content of Ca and Na in lily samples and higher relative content of Mg in potato samples. The experimental results showed that LIBS technique is a fast and effective means for measuring and comparing the contents of microelements in plant samples.
