Stable injection locking with slotted Fabry–Perot lasers at 2 <i>μ</i> m
摘要: Injection locking has many applications in telecommunications systems, such as narrowing linewidths, increasing bandwidth and improving filtering. Beyond telecommunications, injection locking is widely used in remote sensing. This is of particular interest for applications in the 2 μm region, where gases such as carbon dioxide, water vapour and methane have identifiable absorption features. In this paper, we demonstrate stable injection locking with slotted Fabry–Perot lasers in the 2 μm wavelength region. Injection locking was observed in both the optical domain and power spectrum; with key features recorded such as injection ‘pulling’, side-mode suppression and the characteristic quiet region in the electrical domain denoting single-frequency emission and stable locking. The effect of varying the injection ratio was investigated, with a decreased injection ratio corresponding to a reduction in the locking bandwidth. Finally, the lasers were shown to remain injection locked, with no thermal drift, for over 24 h, indicating their suitability for implementation in a real-world telecommunications system.

Scanning laser triangulation sensor geometry maintaining imaging condition
摘要: This work deals with the system design, control and the experimental results of a scanning laser sensor in which the optical path is scanned by a novel high performance compact fast steering mirror (FSM). The system design satisfies the Scheimpflug condition even though only the illumination path is scanned, such that an FSM with a small aperture size and high bandwidth can be used. To scan the area of interest with the FSM, raster trajectories are employed, which provide an uniform spatial resolution over the scan area. To track the trajectory a feedback controller is designed using the H-approach, such that a closed loop bandwidth of 1.4 kHz is achieved. The FSM can follow triangular signals up to 200 Hz with the maximum actuation range of ±3?. This enables a framerate of up to two frames per second for an image with 100x100 pixels. With the scanning system a maximum spatial resolution of 60 μm and a scan range of 25 mm can be achieved.

Photonic Microcavity-Enhanced Magnetic Plasmon Resonance of Metamaterials for Sensing Applications
摘要: We investigate photonic microcavity-enhanced magnetic plasmon (MP) resonance in metamaterials for high-quality refractive index sensing. The metamaterials are consisting of a top periodic array of U-shaped metallic split-ring resonators (SRRs), a middle dielectric layer, and a bottom metallic backed plate. The top metallic SRRs that are placed at about Bragg distance above the bottom metallic plate constitute a photonic microcavity. Because the MP resonance excited in metallic SRRs is coupled to the photonic microcavity mode supported by the photonic microcavity, the radiative damping of the MP resonance is strongly reduced and consequently its linewidth is decreased dramatically. Benefiting from the narrow linewidth, large modulation depth, and giant magnetic field enhancement at the MP resonance, the cavity-coupled metamaterial sensor has very high sensitivity (S =400 nm/RIU, S* =26/RIU) and figure of merit (FOM =33, FOM* =4215), which suggests that the proposed metamaterials have potential in applications of plasmonic biosensors.

Reduced Graphene Oxide/Maghemite Nanocomposite for Detection of Lead Ions in Water Using Surface Plasmon Resonance
摘要: A prism-based surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor deposited with reduced graphene oxide/maghemite is presented for the detection of lead ions (Pb2+) in water. The SPR setup proposed followed the Kretschmann configuration with the installment of the nanocomposite integrated bilayer sensor chip onto the prism. For protection, the nanocomposite active layer was coated with 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimidehydrochloride/N-hydroxysuccinimide. When the sensor was tested with different concentrations of Pb2+ in static water, the limit of detection was achieved at 0.001 ppm with a resonance angle shift of 0.184°. As an improvisation, a sample circulation design was adapted into the setup in order to increase the interaction rate between the sample and the sensing layer. This managed to improve the detection limit to 0.3 ppb.

Simulated and Real Sheet-of-Light 3D Object Scanning Using a-Si:H Thin Film PSD Arrays
摘要: A MATLAB/SIMULINK software simulation model (structure and component blocks) has been constructed in order to view and analyze the potential of the PSD (Position Sensitive Detector) array concept technology before it is further expanded or developed. This simulation allows changing most of its parameters, such as the number of elements in the PSD array, the direction of vision, the viewing/scanning angle, the object rotation, translation, sample/scan/simulation time, etc. In addition, results show for the first time the possibility of scanning an object in 3D when using an a-Si:H thin film 128 PSD array sensor and hardware/software system. Moreover, this sensor technology is able to perform these scans and render 3D objects at high speeds and high resolutions when using a sheet-of-light laser within a triangulation platform. As shown by the simulation, a substantial enhancement in 3D object profile image quality and realism can be achieved by increasing the number of elements of the PSD array sensor as well as by achieving an optimal position response from the sensor since clearly the definition of the 3D object profile depends on the correct and accurate position response of each detector as well as on the size of the PSD array.
