2005, 29(3): 233-236.
Abstract:

2005, 29(3): 237-240.
Abstract:
To improve the performance of FBG interrogation system,a novel fiber Bragg grating sensor interrogation system based on a tunable fiber Fabry-Perot (FFP) filter was demonstrated.Firstly,a reference fiber Bragg grating (FBG) was used as a wavelength reference element.By measuring the wavelength difference between reference FBG and sensor FBG,the drift of tunable FFP filter's cavity length was compensated.Secondly,a quadratic fit function wa s made with software based on experiment results.This function showed a good fit to the relationship between the displacement of PZT and control voltage.It was used to calculate the wavelength of the sensing FBG.In experiment,a strain of 0~1800 με was applied to the sensing FBG and the maximum nonlinearity deviat ion of measured wavelength was 0.5%.Experiment results show that the measured er ror caused by the drift of FFP filter's cavity length and PZT's nonlinearity is greatly reduced and a higher accuracy is obtained.

2005, 29(3): 248-250.
Abstract:
In order to discuss the effects of group delay dispersion (GDD) and self-phase modulation (SPM) on the pulses generated from passively mode-locking solid-state laser,the Haus master equation which described the femtosecond pulse solid laser dynamics was solved numerically.Adopting the fast saturable absorber model,the pulse evolutions were analyzed in two conditions,one of which was the balance between GDD and SPM,and the other was the effect of GDD and SPM together.The conclusion shows shorter and steadier pulse can be produced by solid-state laser in the latter condition.

Abstract:
The aim is to study the effect of Nd:YAG laser inhibiting caries progression in enamel.After surface treatment,48 enamel blocks were divided six groups of eight blocks per group:0.01W,0.3W,0.8W,1W,1.4W laser irradiation groups and control group.Enamel blocks after laser irradiation and control group were put into 5mL of lactate buffer solution (0.1mol/L),which were put in water of 37℃ for 72h.The hardness and morphology of enamel surface were investigated by microhardness meter and scanning electron microscopy.Compa red with the control group,the group with 0.3W laser treatment had the least caries lesion (p0.01).Finally,the mechanism of caries prevention by laser is discussed.With laser parameters being controlled suitably,the best caries inhibition can be achieved when the temperature rising of enamel surface is in the range of 300℃~400℃.

2005, 29(3): 261-265.
Abstract:
Using the theoretical model of pulsed beam through gra ting pair in the case of finite beam size and starting from the Fourier angle spectrum of the pulsed beam,the spatial and temporal properties of the pulsed super-Gaussian beam single and double passing compressor and the effects of high-order dispersion are studied.It's found that when the pulsed super-Gaussian beam once passes through the grating pair,the time-dependent spatial shift will be introduced in the output pulse by the transverse spectrum shift,but the effect will be eliminated when twice passes and that high-order dispersion affects the spatial and temporal properties of the output pulse,causes the pulse front distortion and induces space-time aberration in the output pulse.

2005, 29(3): 287-290,314.
Abstract:
By means of the finite element method the laser-gener ated ultrasonic wave is simulated when laser interacts on the Al surface.After the resuts are computed for the Al plates with the same thickness but different depths of surface-breaking cracks and a given depth of subsuface crak under the top surface of the Al plate,the characteristics of the reflected wave and transmitted wave generated by the Rayleigh waves interacted with the surface breaking cracds and the subsurface crack are attained.Furthermore,based on Wingner-Vile theory the spectrum of the two signals recorded on both sides of the crack are a nalyzed.The result shows that the depths of the surface cracks and the subsurface crack cause the obvious effect on the spectral characteristics.This phenomena could be useful to the laser ultrasonic quantitative non-destructive evaluation (QNDE).

Abstract:
The effects of atmospheric scales on aperture averaging of Gaussian-Schell beam propagating in an atmospheric turbulence were examined by means of a modulation spectrum for the index of refraction fluctuations including the outer-and-inner scales of the atmospheric turbulence and the approx imation of across-spectral density function for the coherent function.An easily evaluated expression valid in the weak fluctuation regime for aperture-averag ing factor including the effects of the turbulent outer-scale was obtained.The results show that with the outer-scale reducing,the aperture averaging of scintillations for Gaussian-Schell beam propagating in an atmospheric turbulence will reduce.The effect of the outer-scale of turbulence on the aperture averaging of scintillations for incoherence beam can be ignored.
