Improving the performance of CdZnTe detectors using infrared stimulation
2011
The influence of monochromatic optical stimulation with wavelengths from 400 nm to 1100 on characteristics of the CdZnTe quasi-hemispherical detectors was studied. It was found that illumination with infrared (IR) light of wavelengths (870–900 nm) close to the absorption edge of the CdZnTe significantly improves the detectors performance at room temperature. Improvement can be achieved with low-intensity IR illumination of about 1–10 µW. The higher intensity illumination leads to degradation of the detector spectrometric characteristics. Infrared radiation penetrates into the detector sensitive volume, change the balance equilibrium between free and trapped carriers, leading to improve char…
Field-free molecular orientation of1Σand2Πmolecules at high temperature
2012
We analyze the control of field-free molecular orientation at high temperature by use of a two-color laser bipulse strategy proposed in Zhang et al. [Phys. Rev. A 83, 043410 (2011)]. A general study shows that there exist two types of linear molecules for which a different mechanism has to be used. For molecules with a large hyperpolarizability, a monochromatic laser pre-pulse is applied before the two-color laser pulse at a time close to the rotational period ${T}_{r}$, while for molecules with a small hyperpolarizability, the optimal delay is found close to ${T}_{r}/4$ or $3{T}_{r}/4$. We extend this analysis to the case of a ${}^{2}\phantom{\rule{-0.16em}{0ex}}\ensuremath{\Pi}$ molecule …
Mapping the Amplitude and Position Response of Double Sided Silicon Strip Detectors with Monocromatic Single Protons
2012
International audience; We are currently developing a novel detection system featuring high angular and energy resolution and able to reconstruct the particles momentum at high precision for different physical cases in multi-fragmentation nuclear physics experiments, based on Double Sided Silicon Strip Detectors as ΔE stages aimed at performing also pulse shape analysis for fragments stopping therein. We carried out a detailed qualification of the performance of the strip detectors. In order to provide the detector response matrix we used a pulsed monoenergetic proton beam. The paper reviews the pulsed proton beam facility of the LaBeC of INFN - Sezione di Firenze and present the results of…
Influencia del modelo de ojo teórico en la evaluación numérica de lentes intraoculares fractales
2020
In this work we present the numerical evaluation of a new design of fractal intraocular lens studied through a ray-tracing program. To determine the monochromatic and polychromatic performance of these lenses in different theoretical model eyes the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) and the area above the MTF (AMTF) have been used. These merit functions show the same behavior for different values of asphericity (Q), independently from the theoretical model eye, even though there are differences due to the Spherical Aberration (SA) considered in each model.
Real-time optical spectrum analyzers operating with spectrally incoherent broadband continuous-wave light source
2007
On the framework of coherence theory we discuss the averaged temporal intensity output provided by real-time optical Fourier transformers when the spectral line shape of the stationary source is considered. Some numerical examples are given and the deviations from perfectly monochromatic sources are pointed out.
Single-output color pattern recognition using a fractional correlator
1997
A novel method for performing color image pattern recogni- tion using a fractional correlator (FC) is proposed. The input plane is illuminated with three different coherent sources of wavelengths corre- sponding to RGB (red, green, and blue) colors. The output plane pro- vides a single output peak, which is a result of an incoherent addition between the three correlations obtained per each color. By using the fractional correlator, which is a partially space variant correlator, we achieve space-variance-controlled color pattern recognition. The use of the three-color illumination can drastically increase the discrimination ability of the suggested correlator. © 1997 Society of Photo-Optical…
Gap solitons in nonlinear electrical transmission lines
2005
We study theoretically and numerically the properties of monochromatic waves in a nonlinear electrical transmission line,whose capacitance has a periodic spatial variation.ln the continuum limit and weak amplitude limit we reduce the characteristic equations of this system to NLS equation. We find analytical solutions for the voltage envelope, which propagate with frequency in the gap induced by the capacitance periodicity. Our numerical experiments show that, when the input voltage increases, the transmissivity in the gap increases and the voltage envelope approaches the stationnary shape predicted by theory.
Resolution improvement by single-exposure superresolved interferometric microscopy with a monochrome sensor
2011
Single-exposure superresolved interferometric microscopy (SESRIM) by RGB multiplexing has recently been proposed as a way to achieve one-dimensional superresolved imaging in digital holographic microscopy by a single-color CCD snapshot [Opt. Lett. 36, 885 (2011)]. Here we provide the mathematical basis for the operating principle of SESRIM, while we also present a different experimental configuration where the color CCD camera is replaced by a monochrome (B&W) CCD camera. To maintain the single-exposure working principle, the object field of view (FOV) is restricted and the holographic recording is based on image-plane wavelength-dispersion spatial multiplexing to separately record the thre…
Experimental generation of high-contrast Talbot images with an ultrashort laser pulse
2008
A femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser oscillator emitting pulses with 800 nm central wavelength, 10.9 fs pulse width, and 75 MHz repetition rate, combined with a dispersion-compensated diffractive system, was used to implement a large-area, high-contrast, broadband optical interference technique based on the Talbot effect. Chromatic artifacts associated with the huge spectrum of the optical source (approximately 150 nm) are compensated for with an air-separated hybrid diffractive-refractive lens doublet. The spatial resolution of the chromatically compensated Talbot images under femtosecond illumination is nearly identical to that achieved under continuous wave monochromatic illumination. Further…
White-light array generation with a diffractive lenslet array
1999
Abstract In this paper we present two different optical configurations providing a white-light array generator based on a diffractive lenslet array (DLA). In both cases, starting from a white-light point source we achieve a regularly spaced set of sharp light spots by use of a single DLA and a small number of extra lenses (only one or two). The first optical system permits us to change the separation between the intensity peaks in a tunable way. The second is very compact and consists only of diffractive lens elements. The key question in both set-ups is the use of achromatic Fourier-transform methods. In this way, we achieve, in a first-order approximation, the superposition of the chromat…
