Abstract:
Based on both numerical simulation and experimental investigation,much research work has been done on on-line truing and dressing bronze-bonded diamond grinding wheel by acoustic-optic Q-switched YAG pulsed laser.A 3-D mathematical simulation model and a heat transfer model of single pulsed laser ablating the diamond abrasive was established by means of finite element method,where the process of diamond graphitization was taken into account.The removal depth of the diamond abrasive in different laser parameters(such as focal position,pulse width and laser power) was measured,and the relationship between them was analysed,which helped us to select optimal parameters.The results show that:the laser power,pulse width and the focal position are the direct effects of the removal depth of the diamond abrasive;it will increase along with the increase of laser power,and decrease along with the increase of pulse width and the focal position.The on-line grinding wheel dressing was achieved with closed-loop control,CCD and laser triangulation displacement measuring instrument which were used in control of Q-switch and the on-line monitoring of the circular run-out of the grinding wheel.After laser truing and dressing,the accuracy was further improved,the circular run-out error was reduced,and the surface topography was improved too.

2012, 36(4): 441-444. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-806.2012.04.003
Abstract:
In order to study the influence of carbides produced by in situ synthesis of various chemical reactions or direct addition on wear resistance of carbide reinforced composite coatings,TiC reinforced Fe-based composite coatings were prepared on T10 steel substrate by laser alloying.Then their microstructures,phases,microhardness and wear properties were investigated and analyzed.Results showed that compact and non-defective alloy layers were obtained,consisting of γ-CrFe7C0.5 and submicron MC(M=Ti,Cr,W) particles.Austenite transformed into martensite in wear testing because of processing hardening.Wear weight loss of direct addition was 2 times to 3 times larger than that of in situ synthesis.The content of carbides produced through combination reaction between Ti and C was higher than that produced through reduction reaction between TiO2 and C,which led to a better tribological performance.The results can serve as a guide in selecting the best method of the ceramic phase introduction when preparing TiC reinforced Fe-based composite coatings.

2012, 36(4): 445-449. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-806.2012.04.004
Abstract:
In order to study effect of the o-polarized irradiation on the screening-photovoltaic spatial solitons,the theory of screening-photovoltaic spatial solitons was established based on the one-photon photorefractive effect.The optical circuit includes a divider resistance and an o-polarized uniform background beam.The numerical results show that the dark solitons can be obtained for the proper values of biased field and photovoltaic field and the bright solitons can also be obtained by only changing the value of effective glass coefficient between o-background beam and soliton beam while the other parameters remain unchanged.The intensity full width at half maximum(FWHM)of solitons increases with the increase of the ratio of the o-background beam intensity to the dark-irradiation intensity.Similarly,the FWHM of solitons will also increase with the ratio of cross section of the o-background beam to that of the soliton beam.The paper gives a new scheme of the transformation of a dark soliton into a bright soliton in photorefractive crystal.

Abstract:
In order to obtain a new flattened dispersion photonic crystal fiber with high nonlinearity,a novel octagonal photonic crystal fiber(O-PCF) with three-cladding structure was designed.The effect of the hole size and hole space on the nonlinearity and dispersion of the PCF was analyzed by means of the multi-pole method.The result shows that the dispersion and the nonlinearity coefficient of O-PCF decrease with the increasing of the diameter of inner air hole.With the increasing of the diameter of the third air hole,the dispersion increases.Meanwhile,the nonlinearity coefficient almost remains constant.The dispersion and nonlinearity coefficient is affected little by the diameter of the second layer and peripheral air hole.By optimizing the diameters of the O-PCF holes and the hole pitch,an O-PCF with high flattened dispersion and nonlinearity was achieved.At the wavelength range of 1.46μm~1.73μm,the dispersion coefficient is merely changed within ±0.5ps/(km·nm),and the nonlinearity coefficient is merely changed from 42.5W-1·km-1 to 50W-1·km-1 at 1.5μm to 1.65μm.These results offer theoretical references for designing the photonic crystal fiber with some specific function.

2012, 36(4): 493-496. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-806.2012.04.014
Abstract:
For analyzing the influence of multiple scattering on measuring beam attenuation in bubble wakes,the correction coefficient was introduced which denotes the extent of multiple scattering,and its theoretical formulations was derived by means of a narrow angle approximation solution to the radiation transfer equation.Given a typical bubbles size distribution function and number density in bubbles wakes,the relation among the correction coefficient and detector field of view(FOV),wake optical depth,beam size,received section size were analyzed by numerical calculation.Analysis shows that the influence of FOV in forward small angle on the correction coefficient is great,but it has a little change when the FOV is wide;and the impact of optical depth on the correction coefficient is prominent,besides the impact is more prominent when the optical depth is less than 1;and the effect of received section size on the correction coefficient is very little when depth is less than 1,but it becomes visible as the optical depth increase;the influence of beam size on the correction coefficient is comparatively less,further the correction coefficient almost keeps changeless when the beam size is large.The research proposes a theoretical foundation for choice and optimization of conditions during measuring beam attenuation in bubble wakes.

2012, 36(4): 497-500. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-806.2012.04.015
Abstract:
The protective gas plays an important role in the CO2 laser metal intertia gas(MIG)hybrid welding of aluminum alloy.The laser-MIG hybrid welding was carried out on 5052 Al alloy plates at different flow rates of He,Ar mixed protective gas,and the data about penetration depth and welding voltages were obtained.The results show when He is added to protective gas,the arc voltage of MIG will increase,and Arc stability reduces so that the weld penetration is affected by the pure He protective gas.The surface quality and the arc stability are improved when a little Ar gas is mixed with He protective gas,and the weld penetration is added.When the ratio of V(Ar):V(He)=5:25,the weld penetration is maximum.When a great amount of Ar is added to He protective gas,the weld penetration is decreased,even the deep penetration of laser welding is prevented.When using pure Ar gas,although the weld appearance is beautiful,but the weld penetration is very small.The results have an important role in the weld quality of the CO2 laser-MIG arc hybrid welding aluminum.

Abstract:
In order to study the properties of the complete bandgap of 2-D columnar photonic crystal in square lattice,two types of 2-D photonic crystals were studied based on the plane wave expansion method.The dependence of the complete bandgap on the variation of column radius and the refractive index was studied for a fixed lattice constant.Results show that when the radius of dielectric rods increases,the width of the complete photonic bandgap of photonic crystal composed of Ge cylinders in air background firstly increased,then declined and disappeared at last.When the filling fraction was 38.3%,as the dielectric constant of dielectric rods increased,the obtained maximum complete photonic band gap was 0.02754(ωa/(2πc)) when the refractive index was 4.2.It was also found that the bandgap frequency increased when the radius of air rods in Ge background increased.When the filling fraction was 48.3%,as the dielectric constant increased in the background,three complete bandgaps could be found,and the width of the largest complete bandgap was 0.02922(ωa/(2πc)) when the background index was 6.2.The photonic band structure was also shown by the frequency analysis of TE/TM.These results provide theoretical instructions for 2-D square photonic crystals with big photonic bandgap.

Abstract:
For the sake of understanding the carrier-envelope-phase dependence of the two single-attosecond-pulse generation techniques,i.e.,amplitude gating and polarization gating,the influence of carrier-envelope phase of the driving field on the generation of extreme ultraviolet single attosecond pulse with either of the basic techniques was analyzed based on its principle and the three-step scenario of high-harmonic generation.It indicates that the optimal carrier-envelope phases for amplitude gating and polarization gating are 0 and 0.5π respectively,whose difference was induced by the close dependence of high-harmonic generation on the polarization feature of driving field.The results are of great significance to the generation and its related applications of extreme ultraviolet attosecond pulses with narrow pulse duration.

2012, 36(4): 527-531. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-806.2012.04.023
Abstract:
Based on the real condition that laser quenching steel substrate could improve the service life of chromium-plated gun bore,the interfacial shear strengths of Cr-plating coating on laser re-quenching substrate and laser non-treating one were measured by multi-cracks tensile method respectively.The experimental results show that the interfacial shear strength is increased by 77.7% through laser re-quenching steel substrate.The analysis of interface structure between substrate and Cr-coating shows that the interface of laser pretreatment is a continuous transition,while there is an over-layer on the original interface.The mechanical model analysis shows that the compressive residual stress in the laser processing zone could increases fracture stress of chromium coating and the improvement of substrate surface hardness decreases maximum crack spacing.The synthetic result of above two effecting factors is that the interfacial shear strength is increased by laser re-quenching substrate.

Abstract:
In order to eliminate the effect of amplified spontaneous emission(ASE) noise of Er-doped fiber amplifiers(EDFA)on the temperature measuring precision of distributed optical fiber temperature sensors,a precise modified formula is an effective means.Firstly,the influence of ASE noise in EDFA was analyzed,and then the temperature demodulation formula was modified with intermediate calculation results.Secondly,based on the theoretical and modified formula,the temperature was tested,and the results were compared.Analysis results indicate that the modified temperature demodulation formula can efficiently compensate errors due to ASE noise and improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the system and measurement precision of the temperature obviously.The experimental results show that the temperature precision is raised to 1℃ ~2℃ by using the modified formula.Moreover,amplified Raman spontaneous scattering is also observed in multimode fibers as the same as in single mode fibers and causes amplified Raman spontaneous scattering curve distortion.However,amplified Raman spontaneous scattering exhibits ideal temperature effect.

2012, 36(4): 565-567. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1001-806.2012.04.033
Abstract:
In order to improve the precision of rhomb-type achromatic retarders,according to the optical refraction rule and based on that the sum of the angle of total reflection θ and the reflection angle r is constant,dual-wavelength design was analyzed for two different wavelength beams incident on the retarder.Since the delay errors were the positive and negative,retardation was 90° at two wavelengths in the whole region of spectrum.Simultaneously,achromatic precision of the λ/4 retarder was enhanced greatly after optimum design for two wavelengths.The maximal delay error was smaller than 0.02° for a λ/4 retarder designed with LaK2 glass within the range of 360nm~1160nm.Compared with other two designing methods,the new designed retarder not only simplifies the designing theory,but also has higher achromatic precision,and the results are helpful to the design of high precision rhomb-type achromatic retarders.
