Different types of femtosecond optical tweezers have become a powerful tool in the modern biological field. However, how to control the irregular targets, including biological cells, using femtosecond optical tweezers remains to be explored. In this study, human red blood cells (hRBCs) are manipulated with femtosecond optical tweezers, and their states under different laser powers are investigated. The results indicate that optical potential traps only can capture the edge of hRBCs under the las

Reconstruction of absorption coefficient \mu_{a} and scattering coefficient \mu_{s} is very important for applications of diffuse optical tomography and near infrared spectroscopy. Aiming at the early cancer detection of cervix and stomach, we present a fast inverse Monte-Carlo scheme for extracting \mu_{a} and \mu_{s} of a tubular tissue from the measurement on frequency domain. Results show that the computation time for reconstructing one set of \mu_{a} and \mu_{s} is less than 1 min and the r

The dynamics of nonlinear processes in quantum dot (QD) semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) are investigated. Using small-signal measurements, the suitabilities of cross-gain and cross-phase modulation as well as four wave mixing (FWM) for wavelength conversion are examined. The cross-gain modul

Slow and fast light in quantum-well (QW) and quantum-dot (QD) semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) using nonlinear quantum optical effects are presented. We demonstrate electrical and optical controls of fast light using the coherent population oscillation (CPO) and four wave mixing (FWM) in the

We have seen a lot of unique features off vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs), such as low power consumption, wafer-level testing, small packaging capability, and so on. The market of VCSELs has been growing up rapidly in recent years and they are now the key devices in local area networks using multi-mode optical fibers. In addition, new functions on VCSELs have been demonstrated. In this paper, the recent advances of VCSEL photonics will be reviewed, which include the wavelength e

In this letter, poly(vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF)/(Y0.97Eu0.03)2O3 rare-earth nanocomposites were prepared by a simple co-precipitation method, and their morphology, structure, and optical properties were investigated. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) images showed that the (Y0.97Eu0.03)2O3

本文提出一个新的光学双稳性模型.基于平均场近似,慢变振幅近似和绝热近似的思想,把光学双稳系统看成一个“黑箱”,类比非线性振动理论,指出不同的光学双稳过程(包括不同的工作物质和不同的腔(F-P腔或环腔)),能用一个恰当的强迫振动方程统一地描述.方程中所包含的都是可测量的宏观参量,使得可能直接用实验拟合,与理论结果进行定量对照.用振动理论的方法,把方程演变成自治方程组,从而方便地得到光学双稳性稳态和动态解的一般形式.并用若干已报道的具体例子验证了这个模型的普适性.
