摘要: The present document discloses a method for measuring the carrier-envelope phase, CEP, offset of ultrashort light pulses, the method comprising: generating an optical interference signal encoding the CEP offset of a light pulse to be measured; applying at least two spectral filters in parallel to the generated interference signal, wherein the transmission functions of the spectral filters are periodic and the at least two spectral filters have partial or fully orthogonal components among themselves; detecting each signal filtered by each of the at least two spectral filters to obtain a magnitude for each of the filtered signals; converting the two obtained magnitudes to a polar representation having a radius and an angle; outputting the CEP offset from the angle of the converted polar representation. It is also disclosed a corresponding system, a field-resolved spectrometer including the system and the use of the system in spectroscopy or in field-resolved spectroscopy.

摘要: A method and system are for expanding a measuring range of a Mach-Zehnder sensor based on the calculation of optical length; the method includes: (1) performing calibration according to a known parameter to complete calibration of a Mach-Zehnder pressure sensor; and (2) for an unknown parameter, testing the unknown parameter first using the Mach-Zehnder sensor to acquire discrete data; processing the discrete data using a peak and valley synthesis algorithm to restore a diffraction order m; calculating an optical length value of the unknown parameter; and restoring, according to a calibrated relationship curve between the optical length and the parameter, the unknown parameter, thus expanding the measuring range of the Mach-Zehnder sensor to enable the Mach-Zehnder sensor to break through the limitation of the FSR and the spectral width of a light source. The measuring range can be theoretically expanded to infinitely great.

摘要: Apparatuses and methods for investigating the inside of a tissue cell are disclosed. Embodiments include diffusely scattering light off a target sample, producing two crossing beams from the scattered light, and using a camera to create an image from the light. Some embodiments utilize a Fourier lens and a Fresnel biprism, and optionally include a long-coherence light source, a delay plate (which can be a polarization rotator or an optical flat), and/or a beam expander. Still further embodiments utilize a diffraction grating, a spatial filter (which may include two differently sized apertures), and a Fourier lens, and optionally include differently sized apertures in the spatial filter. Some embodiments include a transparent support and illuminating the target at an oblique angle through the transparent support. Still further embodiments utilize a low-coherence light source and/or immobilizing the sample tissue using surface bonding chemistry.

摘要: An optical modulator uses an optoelectronic phase comparator configured to provide, in the form of an electrical signal, a measure of a phase difference between two optical waves. The phase comparator includes an optical directional coupler having two coupled channels respectively defining two optical inputs for receiving the two optical waves to be compared. Two photodiodes are configured to respectively receive the optical output powers of the two channels of the directional coupler. An electrical circuit is configured to supply, as a measure of the optical phase shift, an electrical signal proportional to the difference between the electrical signals produced by the two photodiodes.

摘要: A method for measuring the delay between N pulses having a duration less than 100 picoseconds comprises the steps: collimated emission of the pulses having the same repetition frequency, emission of a reference pulse having the same repetition frequency capable of producing interference fringes with each of the pulses, for each of the pulses, detection, by a detector, of the coherent sum of this pulse with the reference pulse, this sum producing the interference fringes, the fringes originating from each of the pulses being distinguishable from one another. The reference pulse is emitted with an adjustable delay, and the method further comprises: for each delay, simultaneous measurement for the pulses of N contrasts of the interference fringes, for each of the pulses, a delay value between this pulse and the reference pulse is determined by the delay corresponding to the maximum contrast.
