Due to the singular density of modes(DOM) in the isotropic PBG and the dynamically coherence induced by the coupling fields, modified reservoir-induced transparency and quantum interference-induced transparency emerge simultaneously. Their interaction leads to ultra-narrow spectral structure. As a result of closed-loop configuration, these features can be manipulated by the amplitudes and relative phase of the coherently driven fields. The position and width of PBG also have an influence on the spectra. The theoretical studies can provide us with more efficient methods to control the atomic absorption–dispersion properties, which have applications in optical switching and slow light.展开更多

The complicated calculation process for transition element of n-photon absorption is simply demonstrated by a diagram approach that is proposed in this work. We find that the transition element for the n-photon absorption has a simple form, i.e., it is just the first term of the n-th order fist kind Bessel function.展开更多

We demonstrate to dope Er3+ into silica microsphere surface by dipping a single-taper optical fiber into a certain concentration of erbium nitrate solution (Er(NO3)) , then dry it and use the electrical-arc of the optical fiber splicer to melt the tip of taper fiber to form the Er3+-doped silica microsphere due to surface tension induced. We also present a HF acid etching setup to fabricate low loss biconical optical taper fibers. We demonstrate the Er3+ doped silica microsphere triple photons and dual photons absorption process of up-conversion fluorescence emission and down-conversion laser oscillation spectra by using the optical tapered fiber to couple 976 nm/1534 nm pump light source.展开更多

It finds that the one- and two-photon absorption and amplification properties are quite sensitive to the vacuum-induced coherence. It is also shown that the one- and two-photon absorption spectra can be dramatically affected by modulating the relative phase of the applied fields, With the proper choice of the relative phase, the amplification without inversion for the probe field can be realized.展开更多

With the number of azulenyl groups increasing, the OPA wavelengths of all molecules are red-shifted in 400-600 nm and the two-photon absorption cross section is gradually enlarged. The azulene-fused structures facilitate an expanding conjugated area and increasing TPA cross section. The origin of TPA properties of studied compounds is studied with a two-level model. In summary, the azulene-fused porphyrins exhibit strong two-photon absorption.展开更多

The ratio of the molar extinction coefficients of compounds was approximately equal to the ratio of the branch amount of the compounds, namely, C1:C2:C3 was 1:2:3. Extremely high fluorescence quantum yields were detected for these compounds. These molecules exhibited obvious two-photon upconcerted fluorescence as excited by 800 nm Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser.展开更多

In the calculation, two kinds of intermediate virtual excited (4f5d) states were utilized, one was the direct product of 4f1 core and 5d1 electronic states, and the other was 4f5d coupled states obtained by using the Reid f2 and fd programs. It was found that the calculated trends in intensities are fairly similar and the interaction between the 5d electron and the (4f)1 core in the 4f5d configuration does not provide dominant contributions to the two-photon absorption transition intensity of the Pr 3+ ion. In addition, the main channels of the strongest two-photon transition 3H_4Γ_1→3P_2Γ_5 were also obtained.展开更多

Special emphasis is placed on the effects of isomerism and the coordination mode on the optical properties. The intra-molecular charge transfer(ICT)properties are specified by natural bond orbital charge analysis. It is shown that the isomerism has non-negligible effects on TPA properties of free ligands. It is found that both the TPA wavelength and the cross section are highly dependent on the coordination mode. When the zinc ion connects with the picolyl unit in the middle of a ligand, the zinc complex has a large TPA intensity in a long wavelength range due to the increased ICT mechanism.展开更多
