We report the observation of electric field induced random lasing in a dye doped liquid crystal system. This was achieved by using a liquid crystal host with negative dielectric anisotropy doped with laser dye PM 597 in a 75 μm cell with a homeotropic alignment layer. In the absence of an applied field, only amplified spontaneous emission was observed since the liquid crystal orientation was uniform. However, application of a field resulted in a fieldinduced planar-like configuration with local nonuniformity in liquid crystal orientation. This led to random lasing in the energized state (voltage greater than a transition threshold). The onset of lasing occurs by application of either a spatially homogenous or a spatially inhomogeneous electric field across the liquid crystal. The characteristics of the emission spectra as a function of different (i) dye concentration and (ii) applied voltage were investigated using nanosecond pulsed laser excitation at 532 nm. The effects of using an inhomogeneous field were compared to the use of a homogenous field and reported. It is shown that the spatial configuration can be used to alter the emission spectra of the system. The work is used to suggest a new configuration, referred to here as “reverse mode,” for liquid crystal-based random lasers. This new configuration may provide additional avenues for their use in commercial devices.

针对高速运动目标激光相干探测最大测量速度受限的问题,提出了一种四光相干混频大动态范围的多普勒测量方法。与传统激光相干探测相比,该方法可将最大测量速度提高一倍,实现高速和超高速目标的速度测量。由于四光相干混频探测系统比外差激光相干探测系统多了一束本振光,导致本振散粒噪声增加。因此,根据信噪比定义推导出四光相干混频探测系统的信噪比公式,并利用该公式从相干长度、接收孔径、失配角三个方面进行了理论和数值分析,得到了相干长度和接收孔径之间的最优关系。

休斯飞机公司马利布研究实验室最近的研究有可能获得能在整个可见光波段调谐的固定激光器。据该实验室激光光学材料组组长L. Deshaver谈，在400~800毫微米范围调谐的激光辐射可由掺单价铜(Cu 1)的玻璃产生。这种与可调谐染料激光器相当的固态器件为军方所急需,因为它有种种应用，如做指示器，由于波长可调，能使干扰失效。休斯这项研究的资助单位是国防远景研究计划局和陆军夜视和电光学实验室。

采用熔融淬冷法制备了GeS2-Ga2S3-KCl系统玻璃,然后测试了样品的厚度、密度、吸收光谱和透射光谱,利用经典的Tauc方程计算了样品光学带隙允许的直接跃迁。结果显示,GeS2-Ga2S3-KCl玻璃拥有较好的物理性能;样品的密度、折射率随着KCl含量增多而减小,而光学带隙则随着KCl含量增加而增大。此外,傅里叶和拉曼红外光谱仪的测试结果表明,随着KCl加入和含量的增加,玻璃基质网络结构发生变化,从而引起相应红外光学性能的改变;同时玻璃拉曼谱出现阶段性的变化,红外截止边带出现了规律性的红移。通过研究K
