Wavelength swept amplified spontaneous emission source.
We present a new, alternative approach to realize a wavelength swept light source with no fundamental limit to sweep speed. Amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) light alternately passes a cascade of optical gain elements and tunable optical bandpass filters. We show that for high sweep speeds, the control signal for the different filters has to be applied with a defined, precise phase delay on ...
متن کاملAmplified Spontaneous Emission'
We review the coherence properties of the self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE). Temporally, SASE is similar to the spontaneous undulator radiation except that the spectral bandwidth is about ten times narrower compared with typical undulator radiation. The situation is quite different in the transverse dimension, where SASE is fully coherent. INTRODUCTION Several laboratories are pursuing...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Dual Amplified Spontaneous Emission from MEH-PPV Solutions
We report the observations of dual wavelength amplified spontaneous emission from the solutions of a conjugated polymer poly [2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-1, 4-phenylenevinylene] (MEH-PPV) in Tetrahydrofuran and 1, 2 Dichlorobenzene. We have prepared MEH-PPV using a modified procedure and purified several times in each step, the material offers low molecular weight, low polydispersity index an...
متن کاملHigh-Coherence Wavelength Swept Light Source
[Summary] Optical technologies that have so far been restricted to the field of optical communications are now starting to be applied in new fields, especially medicine. Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry (OFDR) offering fast and accurate target position measurements is one focus of attention. The Wavelength Swept Light Source (WSLS) is said to be one of the key devices of OFDR, whose sweep...
متن کاملFirst observation of self-amplified spontaneous emission in a free-electron laser at 109 nm wavelength
We present the first observation of self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) in a free-electron laser (FEL) in the vacuum ultraviolet regime at 109 nm wavelength (11 eV). The observed free-electron laser gain (approximately 3000) and the radiation characteristics, such as dependency on bunch charge, angular distribution, spectral width, and intensity fluctuations, are all consistent with the ...
