    摘要: A method and apparatus for heterodyne detection of coherent Raman signals from a Raman active sample exhibiting a Raman-induced Kerr effect. More specifically, a method and apparatus is disclosed for generating a local oscillator output and heterodyning this output with a portion of a probe laser output having its polarization shifted by 90 degrees due to a Raman-induced Kerr effect in a Raman active sample. A probe laser output and a pump laser output are directed into and intersect within the Raman active sample. When their frequency difference is equal to a Raman mode frequency, a non-linear optically induced birefringence in the sample shifts the probe polarization and produces a signal at the output of a polarization analyzer. This signal is heterodyned with a local oscillator output having substantially the same frequency. The local oscillator output is generated either by rotating the polarization analyzer, elliptically polarizing the probe laser output or reflecting a portion of the probe laser output directly into an optical detector. A combining of the local oscillator output and the polarization-shifted probe laser output creates a heterodyned cross-term signal which is linearly proportional to the Raman cross-section of the sample. In addition, an apparatus is disclosed for modulation of the pump laser output which in turn modulates the heterodyned cross-term signal and facilitates its subsequent detection and amplification.

    摘要: A cavity ring-down system for performing cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) using optical heterodyne detection of a ring-down wave E.sub.RD during a ring-down phase or a ring-up wave E.sub.RU during a ring up phase. The system sends a local oscillator wave E.sub.LO and a signal wave E.sub.SIGNAL to the cavity, preferably a ring resonator, and derives an interference signal from the combined local oscillator wave E.sub.LO and the ring-down wave E.sub.RD (or ring-up wave E.sub.RU). The local oscillator wave E.sub.LO has a first polarization and the ring-down wave E.sub.RD has a second polarization different from the first polarization. The system has a combining arrangement for combining or overlapping local oscillator wave E.sub.LO and the ring-down wave E.sub.RD at a photodetector, which receives the interference signal and generates a heterodyne current I.sub.H therefrom. Frequency and phase differences between the waves are adjustable.

    摘要: A magneto-optical (M-O) storage detection channel which includes optical means for detecting edge transitions between magneto-optical domains. The beam returning from the storage medium is analyzed both spatially and in polarization. When a transition is centered under the read laser beam, the spatial reversal in the sign of the amplitude of the signal polarization due to the spatially nonuniform Kerr rotation is compensated by a reversal due to spatially nonuniform (split) detectors or a matched optical filter. The optical powers on the two sides of each split detectors or on two independent detectors sensitive to orthogonal polarizations become unequal thereby producing an electrical signal signal which comprises spaced peaks in opposite directions at the leading and trailing edges of the M-O domain or mark.

    摘要: A method and device for detecting dichroic and/or birefringent narrow spectral features in a sample is described. The method includes the steps of providing a beam of light having an optical frequency bandwidth which is narrow compared to the width of the narrow spectral feature and having a center frequency .omega..sub.c which lies near the narrow spectral feature, polarization phase modulating a beam of light with a single RF frequency to provide a pure FM spectrum having upper and lower sidebands in which either the carrier and sidebands have been polarized with respect to one another, exposing the sample containing the narrow spectral feature to the polarized modulated light so that the FM sidebands probe the narrow spectral feature, polarization analyzing and then photodetecting the light emerging from the sample to detect a RF beat at the specific RF frequency used for the polarization phase modulation, and electronically monitoring the amplitude of the RF beat signal to indicate the strength of the narrow spectral feature. The device includes a polarization phase modulator and a polarization analyzer positioned on opposite sides of the sample. In a preferred embodiment the polarization phase modulator produces a frequency modulated optical spectrum with the sidebands polarized precisely orthogonal to the carrier.
