Optical non-contact electric field mapping by LIF in Cs vapor
2007
We present experimental and theoretical studies of the possibility of using cesium vapor as a tracer gas for optical non-contact electric field mapping. Optical images of electric field distributions have been obtained.
A Coherent Master Equation for active mode locking in lasers
2015
We present the derivation of a new master equation for active mode locking in lasers that fully takes into account the coherent effects of the light matter interaction through a peculiar adiabatic elimination technique. The coherent effects included in our model could be relevant to describe properly mode-locked semiconductor lasers where the standard Haus’ Master Equation predictions show some discrepancy with respect to the experimental results and can be included in the modelling of other mode locking techniques too.
Generalized bloch equations for optical interactions in confined geometries
2005
By combining the field-susceptibility technique with the optical Bloch equations, a general formalism is developed for the investigation of molecular photophysical phenomena triggered by nanometer scale optical fields in the presence of complex environments. This formalism illustrate the influence of the illumination regime on the fluorescence signal emitted by a single molecule in a complex environment. In the saturated case, this signal is proportional to the optical local density of states, while it is proportional to the near-field intensity in the non-saturated case. (C) 2005 Elsevier B.V.
