چکیده

Actively mode-locked lasers with noise are studied employing statistical mechanics. A mapping of the system to the spherical model (related to the Ising model) of ferromagnets in one dimension that has an exact solution is established. It gives basic features, such as analytical expressions for the correlation function between modes, and the widths and shapes of the pulses [different from the Kuizenga-Siegman expression; IEEE J. Quantum Electron. QE-6, 803 (1970)] and reveals the susceptibility to noise of mode ordering compared with passive mode locking.

Statistical light-mode dynamics of multipulse passive mode locking.

We study the multipulse formation in passive mode locking in the framework of the statistical light-mode dynamics theory. It is a many-body theory that treats the complex many-mode laser system by statistical mechanics. We give a detailed theory and experimental verification for the important case of multiple-pulse formation in the laser cavity. We follow and extend our former work on the subje...

hp-Spectral Finite Element Analysis of Shear Deformable Beams and Plates

There are different finite element models in place for predicting the bending behavior of shear deformable beams and plates. Mostly, the literature abounds with traditional equi-spaced Langrange based low order finite element approximations using displacement formulations. However, the finite element models of Timoshenko beams and Mindlin plates with linear interpolation of all generalized disp...

Low Dropout Based Noise Minimization of Active Mode Power Gated Circuit

Power gating technique reduces leakage power in the circuit. However, power gating leads to large voltage fluctuation on the power rail during power gating mode to active mode due to the package inductance in the Printed Circuit Board. This voltage fluctuation may cause unwanted transitions in neighboring circuits. In this work, a power gating architecture is developed for minimizing power in a...

Free Vibration of Thick Isotropic Plates Using Trigonometric Shear Deformation Theory

In this paper a variationally consistent trigonometric shear deformation theory is presented for the free vibration of thick isotropic square and rectangular plate. In this displacement based theory, the in-plane displacement field uses sinusoidal function in terms of thickness coordinate to include the shear deformation effect. The cosine function in terms of thickness coordinate is used in tr...

Frequency Locking of a 3.5 Thz Quantum Cascade Laser Using a Gas Cell

We report a frequency locking experiment of a 3.5 THz third-order distributed feedback quantum cascade laser (QCL) by using a molecular absorption line of methanol (CH3OH) gas. With the help of the absorption line, the frequency noise of the QCL is transformed into measurable amplitude fluctuation. We first present the study of the noise of the THz QCL with the contribution from both the freque...
