    摘要: There is provided an autocorrelator of ultrashort electromagnetic pulses, comprising an interferometer for receiving a parent electromagnetic pulse from an energy source and for deriving two daughter electromagnetic pulses from the parent pulse, an output means coupled to the interferometer to output the daughter pulses, and a photodiode in communication with the output means to detect the daughter pulses and to alter the frequency thereof so as to produce an electrical output signal that has a quadratic dependence on the power associated with the parent electromagnetic pulse. The temporal duration of the pulses ranges from TO picoseconds to 5 femtoseconds. A GaAsP photodiode is used with a broad band response of 700-1300 nm. The interferometer is either a Michelson interferometer or a Wollaston prism interferometer and a microscope objective is provided between the output means and the photodiode so that the pulses from the output means are focused onto a defined area of the photodiode.

    摘要: A Fourier-transform spectrometer contains a birefringent optical component, removing the need for a Michelson interferometer used in conventional instruments. A suitable birefringent element such as a Wollaston prism, is used to introduce a path difference between two light polarisations. Use of an extended light source so that all areas of the birefringent component are illuminated simultaneously ensures that different positions on the birefringent component correspond to different path differences between the two polarisations. A Fourier-transform of the resulting interferogram at the detector results in the spectral distribution of the input light being obtained. The use of an extended light source permits a Fourier-transform spectrometer with no moving parts to be achieved.

    摘要: A Fourier transform spectrometer for use, among others, for sensing gases or liquids includes two polarizers, a birefringent optical component interposed between the two polarizers and a detector. Light from an extended source is substantially polarized by a first of the two polarizers, split into divergent beams by the birefringent optical component, and again caused to converge by the birefringent optical component so that, after passing through a second of the two polarizers, the light forms an interferogram in a plane behind the birefringent optical component where the detector is situated. The Fourier transform spectrometer is thereby provided with a way of forming an interferogram of the light from the extended source without a lens or a second birefringent optical component. This improves the field of view of the spectrometer and is likely to reduce its cost.

    摘要: The spatial or temporal characteristic of a beam of light or other electromagnetic radiation or a beam of sub-atomic particles is measured by an array of detectors. The array comprises the layer 1 of photosensitive material on which there are positioned pairs of electrodes 1a, 2a and 1b, 2b etc., with gaps between the electrodes of a pair. The gaps are spaced apart linearly and the material is chosen so that incident light affects current flow between the electrodes defining a gap. Changes in current flow between the individual pairs of electrodes are measured. For measurement of spatial profile layer 1 has a resistivity which varies linearly with the amplitude of incident light. For measurement of temporal profile the beam is split with the split beams being directed on to the array with different angles of incidence and the material is chosen to have a two-photon conductivity.
