Multiphoton Optical Heterodyne Detection
After reviewing recent work on multiphoton direct detection and single-photon heterodyne detection, we examine the behavior of a multiphoton absorption heterodyne receiver. Expressions are obtained for the detector response, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and minimum detectable power for a number of cases of interest. Receiver performance is found to depend on the higher order correlation functio...
متن کاملAtmospheric turbulence-induced signal fades on optical heterodyne communication links.
The three basic atmospheric propagation effects, absorption, scattering, and turbulence, are reviewed. A simulation approach is then developed to determine signal fade probability distributions on heterodynedetected satellite links which operate through naturally occurring atmospheric turbulence. The calculations are performed on both angle-tracked and nonangle-tracked downlinks, and on uplinks...
متن کاملHeterodyne Holography: An Optimal and Versatile 2D Detection Scheme
Heterodyne holography is a variant of phase shifting holography in which reference and signal arms are controlled by acousto optic modulators. We will briefly describe the method and illustrate its advantages on experimental examples. OCIS codes: 090.1995: Holography: Digital holography, 040.2840: DetectorsHeterodyne Citation M.

متن کاملOptical heterodyne detection in cavity ring-down spectroscopy
Polarization-selective optical heterodyne detection is shown to enhance the practical sensitivity of cavity ring-down spectroscopy. Initial experiments demonstrate a signal-to-noise ratio above 31 dB. Minor improvements should yield shot-noise-limited operation. q 1998. Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
متن کاملImaging and target detection with a heterodyne-reception optical radar.
A mathematical system model for a compact heterodyne-reception infrared radar is developed. This model incorporates the statistical effects of propagation through atmospheric turbulence, target speckle and glint, and heterodyne-reception shot noise. It is used to find the image signal-to-noise ratio of a matched-filter envelope-detector receiver and the target detection probability of the optim...
