Laser dynamics in sawtooth-like self-mixing signals.

چکیده
In this Letter, we experimentally show that transient phenomenons in self-mixing signals from a moving target contain information about the target reflectivity and distance. These transient phenomenons are well explained with a dynamical model of the laser diode, which is used to trace an abacus giving the target reflectivity and distance from a measured high-bandwidth, self-mixing signal.

Study of QCL Laser Sources for the Realization of Advanced Sensors
We study the nonlinear dynamics of a quantum cascade laser (QCL) with a strong reinjection provided by the feedback from two external targets in a double cavity configuration. The nonlinear coupling of interferometric signals from the two targets allows us to propose a displacement sensor with nanometric resolution. The system exploits the ultra-stability of QCLs in self-mixing configuration to...
متن کاملPlasma Brain Dynamics (PBD): A Mechanism for EEG Waves Under Human Consciousness
EEG signals are records of nonlinear solitary waves in human brains. The waves have several types (e.g., α, β, γ, θ, δ) in response to different levels of consciousness. They are classified into two groups: Group-1 consists of complex storm-like waves (α, β, and γ); Group-2 is composed of simple quasilinear waves (θ and δ). In order to elucidate the mechanism of EEG wave formation and propagati...
متن کاملEliminating noises contained in sensing signals from a self-mixing laser diode
The paper studied the noise elimination methods for the signals observed from a self-mixing-laser diode (SMLD) based sensing system. The core part of the sensing system consists of a LD, a lens and an external vibrating target. The proposed noise elimination methods are applied on both the simulated and experimental sensing signals. The results presented in the paper show the noise contained in...
متن کاملSelf-mixing interferometer: analysis of the output signals.
This paper presents the calculation of amplitude and relative phase of signals at the three outputs available in a self-mixing interferometer, i.e. the front output on the target side, the back output on the rear of the chip, and, for diode laser, the junction voltage output. Front and rear outputs are observed to be in phase for the He-Ne laser while they are in phase opposition in the diode l...
متن کاملClassification of laser self-mixing interferometric signal under moderate feedback.
This paper presents a different approach to classify self-mixing (SM) signals operating in the moderate feedback regime. A total of six distinct classes of SM signals can be defined based on the SM inherent shapes, which depend on both the feedback factor C and the linewidth enhancement factor α. This classification allows clear identification of SM signals for which normalization issues can ar...
