Time-resolved optical measurements with spread spectrum excitation.
We propose a novel method for measuring time-dependent optical quantities. A train of excitation pulses modulated by a pseudorandom bit sequence is used as the light source, and a cross-correlation scheme is used to retrieve the impulse response. Simulation results of the temporal point-spread function of a diffusive wave are provided, as well as experimental results of a fluorescence decay pro...
متن کاملSpread spectrum time- and space-integrating optical processor.
A hybrid time- and space-integrating optical signal processor for spread spectrum application is described. The system is self-synchronizing and capable of decoding frequency-hopped spread spectrum signals with a large time-bandwidth product. Extensions to hybrid frequency-hopped/direct-sequence systems and to ambiguity function processors are provided. Both theory and experimental verification...
متن کاملTime-resolved Z-scan measurements of optical nonlinearities
We introduce a temporal delay in one beam of the two-color Z-scan apparatus, which measures nondegenerate nonlinear absorption and nondegenerate nonlinear refraction. This technique allows us to time resolve separately the sign and the magnitude of the nonlinear absorption and refraction at frequency p that are due to the presence of a strong excitation at frequency oe. For example, in semicond...
متن کاملLifetime measurements of odd-parity high-excitation levels of Sn I by time-resolved laser spectroscopy
Natural radiative lifetimes of 38 odd-parity highly excited levels in neutral tin in the energy range from 43 682.737 to 56 838.68 cm−1 have been measured by a time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence technique in an atomic beam produced by laser ablation on a solid tin sample. All the levels were excited from the metastable P1,2 and D2 levels in the ground configuration. The second and third h...
متن کاملUltrashort optical waveform measurements using frequency-resolved optical gating.
We measure the intensity and phase of ultrashort pulses from a self-mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser using the recently developed technique of frequency-resolved optical gating. These results represent to our knowledge the shortest complete optical waveform characterization measurements performed to date. We also verify recent theoretical calculations that predict that the main limitation on the p...
