    摘要: A new photorefractive material comprises BaTiO.sub.3 double-doped with two dopant species, both of which have at least two valence states, with one of the dopant species (e.g., cerium) having an ionization level that is near the middle of the barium titanate bandgap and the other dopant species (e.g., rhodium) having an ionization level that is closer to the valence band edge of barium titanate, such that both dopant species are sensitive to visible light, but only one dopant species (the one closer to the valence band edge) is sensitive to infrared radiation. The double-doped BaTiO.sub.3 provides a unique combination of photorefractive properties, thereby improving its performance as a holographic storage medium. The double-doped barium titanate crystal is employed as a holographic recording element. The double-doped barium titanate crystal has a dark storage time at room temperature of several years or more and may be nondestructively read out at an infrared wavelength. Recording information on the double-doped barium titanate crystal is done by first sensitizing the double-doped barium titanate crystal with a substantially uniform beam of radiation at one wavelength and then either simultaneously or subsequently storing information in the barium titanate crystal with an incident recording beam that has a wavelength that is longer than that of the sensitizing beam. Nondestructive read-out is accomplished using only the second (writing) beam.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for a photoinduced electromotive force sensor. The sensor has an active substrate formed of a semi-insulating photoconductor with sufficient carrier trap density to form an effective charge grating and pairs of electrodes disposed on the active substrate, where the sensor is configured to reduce the photovoltaic effect caused by the incident light in the vicinity of the electrodes. The shape or composition of the electrodes may be selected to reduce the photovoltaic effect or the electrodes may be disposed on the substrate to average out the photovoltaic effect arising from each one of the electrodes.

    摘要: A laser-ultrasonic inspection system is provided for on-line and off-line inspection of a workpiece. The system utilizes an optical acoustic wave generation and detection system with relatively high spatial resolution and which appreciably reduces the effects of parasitic acoustic coupling. An array of acoustic waves are generated in the workpiece by a short pulse optical transmitter bee with a beam geometry that is tailored to focus the acoustic waves at an inspection site in the workpiece. The acoustic waves that probe the inspection site are then detected by reflecting an optical read-out beam from a surface of the workpiece and optically interfering it with an optical reference beam. The geometry of the optical read-out beam is chosen such that the read-out beam only detects the acoustic waves that arrive from the inspection site (acoustic waves that arrive from other parasitic acoustic sources are out of phase with respect to each other and cancel out). A wavefront compensation system improves acoustic clutter rejection and also improves the signal-to-noise by compensating for phase and amplitude aberrations induced on the optical read-out beam by the optically rough surface of the workpiece.

    摘要: A phase conjugate resonator (PCR) (2) employing a phase conjugate mirror (PCM) (4) provides high resolution spatial detection of individual locations in a two-dimensional optical array which exceed or fall below a threshold level. The optical intensity profile under investigation is imposed onto an input erase beam (18) to the PCM (4). The erase beam (18) is directed parallel to the PCR axis (16), thereby preventing walkoff. The PCR (2) oscillates at those locations where the erase beam's optical intensity is below a threshold level. The spatially modulated optical output may be read out with multiple detectors or an imaging system, or the cumulative area output of the PCR can be read out with a single detector (28) to characterize the intensity profile relative to the threshold.

    摘要: Faults, dimensions and other characteristics of a material or structure are sensed by a coherent beam's reflection from the material during ultrasonic or very fast vibration. The reflected beam acquires a phase substantially different from its original phase and from the phase of a reference beam split from the common source beam. The reflected beam and the reference beam are superimposed by diffraction in a multiple quantum well adaptive holographic beamsplitter, and the superimposed beams are detected by a photodetector capable of detecting small interference changes from ultrasonic surface displacements or perturbations. An apparatus and method defining an improved homodyne interferometer for performing the method is described.

    摘要: An ultrasound detection system that is relatively insensitive to rough workpiece surfaces, suppresses low frequency noise, and provides high sensitivity without the need for active stabilization. An optical probe beam is reflected and phase modulated by a workpiece surface that is being vibrated by ultrasound. A time-delay interferometer optically interferes the phase modulated probe beam with a time-delayed replica of itself. The optical interference generates optical interference fringes that move in accordance with the workpiece surface velocity. The interference fringes are detected by a non-steady-state photo-electromotive-force (NSS-photo-EMF) detector that generates an output signal when the frequency of fringe motion exceeds a predetermined threshold.

    摘要: Optical devices are disclosed which rely upon Stark-induced resonant, tunable, and saturable birefringence and dichroism to provide both digital and linear amplitude optical modulators, optical shutters, tunable optical filters, and optical cutoff limiters. A Stark cell is disposed along a light beam path between two crossed polarizers with its electric field direction at 45.degree. to the polarizer pass directions. The Stark cell contains a medium exhibiting a dichroic absorption resonance at a predetermined frequency as well as birefringence at frequencies slightly above and slightly below the frequency of the absorption resonance. By applying an appropriate control voltage between the Stark cell electrodes, an electric field is generated within the Stark cell to tune the absorption resonance to overlap the frequency of an input laser beam and thereby vary the transmission through the device from maximum near resonance to zero at frequencies far away from resonance.
