The output waveforms for different pump power densities are numerically simulated, and validated in the Nd：YAG seed-injected laser system. The results indicate that SBS does not take place in the case of a low pump power density and thus the output power scales up linearly with pump power. Once the pump power density exceeds the SBS threshold, SBS takes place and thereby the energies are transferred from pump to Stokes. As a result, a small shoulder appears in the trailing edge of the output waveform, which provides another method to determine the SBS threshold.展开更多

By singular value decomposition on the original system, a bilinear fault detection observer is proposed for the decomposed system via an algebraic Riccati equation, and the domain of attraction of the state estimation error is estimated. A design procedure is presented to determine the fault detection threshold. A model of flexible joint robot is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

The length of the medium cell is selected to be longer than the free gain length of pump pulses in the Brillouin medium. The reflected light from a certain mirror in front of the medium cell is chosen as the reference beam, and the SBS threshold is measured by the ＂jump＂ of the delay between the Stokes beam and the reference beam. An 8-ns Q-switched single-longitudinal-mode pulse is used as the pump and the typical SBS medium FC-72 is selected as the nonlinear medium in our experiment. The SBS threshold intensity is measured to be 173-178 mW/cm2, which is consistent with existing results measured with the transmitted energy limiting method.展开更多

For SBS, the glass transition temperatures （Tgs） of B block and S block obtained by intrinsic fluorescence method were in good agreement with differential scanning calorimetry measurements （DSC）. In the case of SEBS, an isoemission point was observed at about 310 nm at ele- vated temperatures, suggesting the slight conversion between the monomer and excimer emission. On this basis, the molecular chain motion of SEBS was monitored by both fluorescence intensity and excimer/monomer fluorescence ratio. Besides the Tgs of S block and EB blocks, a melting point （Tin） of weak crystalline in EB block was unambiguously determined by intrinsic fluorescence. Furthermore, it was found that the melting process directly led to the slight loosening of PS segments in interface and consequently the reduction of the amount of excimer. A reasonable mechanism was proposed to describe the molecular chain movements and phase transitions of SEBS upon heating. Moreover, the influence of temperature on the apparent activation energy of non-radiative process （ E^T ） around Tg of S block was much stronger than that around Tg of B or EB blocks.展开更多
