Optical stochastic cooling.
In this paper, we consider the utilization of optical amplifiers with bandwidth ∆f ∼= 1014Hz for use in stochastic cooling. It is shown that quadrupole and dipole wigglers can be used as pickups and kickers respectively. The proposed method increases the application of the stochastic cooling method beyond the traditional area of proton-antiproton cooling. For example, the method can also be app...
متن کاملNear-Nyquist optical pulse generation with fiber optical parametric amplification.
A novel method using optical fiber parametric amplification and phase modulation is proposed in order to generate Nyquist pulses. Using parabolic pulses as a pump, we show theoretically that it is possible to generate Nyquist pulses. Furthermore, we show that by using a sinusoidal pump (pump intensity modulated by an RF tone), it is possible to obtain pulses with characteristics that are close ...
متن کاملHigh-temporal contrast using low-gain optical parametric amplification.
We demonstrate the use of low-gain optical parametric amplification (OPA) as a means of improving temporal contrast to a detection-limited level 10(-10). 250 microJ, 500 fs pulses of 1053 nm are frequency doubled and subsequently restored to the original wavelength by OPA with >10% efficiency.
متن کاملParametric image amplification in optical cavities
We show the possibility of noiseless amplification of an optical image in cavities containing a parametric oscillator. We consider a confocal ring cavity with plane mirrors and compare with the case of planar cavity. In the latter case the system operates with severe spatial limitations, while in the confocal case, there is the possibility of preserving the signal-to-noise ratio while amplifyin...
متن کاملOptical Parametric Amplification with Periodically Poled KTiOPO4
This thesis explores the use of engineered nonlinear crystals from the KTiOPO4 (KTP) family as the gain material in optical parametric amplifiers (OPAs), with the aim to achieve more knowledge about the benefits and limitations of these devices. The work aims further at extending the possible applications of OPAs by constructing and investigating several efficient and well performing amplifiers...
