Magnetic field modulated direct overwrite with pulsed laser irradiation for TbFeCo magneto-optical disks

WE have designed a dual-beam magneto-optical (MO) storage system to test the dynamic storage properties of MO disks. The characteristics of this dual-beam system are demonstrated. Magnetic field modulated direct overwrite, which is a promising technique for highspeed MO storage, is realized on TbFeCo MO disks with this dual-beam MO system. The effect of light intensity, magnetic field intensity, and linear velocity of the disk and the modulating frequency variation on carrier-to-noise ratio is investigated.

光谱稳定性对直接探测多普勒测风激光雷达的影响研究

The wind error of the double-edge technique Doppler lidar due to the instability of injection-seeding solid laser and the drift of interferometer s spectrum was analyzed. Corresponding numerical simulation indicated that if the wind error of 1 m/s was achieved, the unsuccessful injection-seeding pulses should be less than 0.06% in integration time of 5 min. (30000 pulses). In the respect of spectrum drift of the interferometer, double temperature control systems were used and the accuracy of minus or plus 0.002°C was obtained, corresponding to the wind error of minus or plus 0.226 m/s. Monitoring of buildup time of the injection-seeding laser and temperature of the interferometer was significantly to improve the invertion accuracy of wind error by rejecting the data with frequency jumping and drifting. Researches of injection-seeding and spectrum stability of the interferometer were practical for the development of double-edge wind lidar.}

All solid-state, injection-seeded Ti:sapphire ring laser

In this letter, we present an all solid-state, injection-seeded Ti:sapphire laser. The laser is pumped by a laser diode pumped frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser, and injection-seeded by an external cavity laser diode with the wavelength between 770 and 780 nm. The single longitude mode and the doubling efficiency of the laser are obtained after injection seeding. The experimental setup and relative results are reported. It is a good candidate laser source for mobile differential absorption lidar (DIAL) system.
