  • Fiber Bragg gratings with two phase shifts as a sensing element and a multiplexing tool for sensor networks

    The complexity and high cost of multiplexing optical fiber sensors is still the main limitation for the widespread introduction of sensory systems, both distributed and quasi-distributed, and point-like. The article proposes a new multiplexing method that takes advantage of both broadband and two-frequency radio-photon multiplexing systems. The simplest broadband radiator is taken from the first, but a complicated and expensive system of spectrometry is not used to determine the central wavelength of fiber Bragg gratings. From the second, a recording system is used at the beat frequency between two components, but an expensive system for generating two- and polyharmonic probing systems is not used. The multiplexing parameter is determined by the frequency of separation between the transparency windows of a fiber Bragg grating, for example, with two phase π-shifts, which differs by a certain value for each of the sensors. The mechanism of modeling of gratings of the specified type is given, in principle the possibility of multiplexing of various number of sensors is shown. When using sensor networks built on the basis of passive optical, the number of multiplexed sensors can reach 256, with all sensors having the same Bragg wave of the wave, and can be combined into tree, bus and other topologies.

  • Frequency-energy characteristics of the ion He-Ca lasers

    An analysis of the mechanisms limiting the growth of the output characteristics of ion recombination He-Ca lasers with an increase in the active medium volume and frequency of pulse repetition is carried out. It was established that by a growing laser tube diameter and a growing frequency of pulse repetition the average power of He-Ca lasers saturates and then decreases due to the formation of radial non-uniformity of the active medium as a result of its overheating on the axis and of the radial cataphoresis, as well as because of the raise of the electron temperature level in early afterglow, conditioned by the grow of gas temperature. It is pointed out that as possible ways of increasing the output characteristics can be used the blackening of the laser tube surface, the use of an independent input of calcium vapours, the use of a forced cooling, while the application of a tube with rectangular cross-section will allow to maximally increasing the energy characteristics. Based on numerical computations it is shown that the attainable maximum of running power of He-Ca lasers amounts to: ~ 4.4 W/m for self-heating active elements from BeO-ceramics and ~ 5.2 W/m – on blackening their surface; ~ 5.3 W/m for an independent calcium vapours input and ~ 6.2 W/m – for its combination with blackening; ~ 9.5 W/m for an intensive forced cooling of active elements with cylindrical geometry; ~ 16 W/m – with active elements of rectangular cross-section at a ratio of wall sizes 1:3.

  • Oscillation of metal vapor transverse-type discharge lasers with combined active media

    One of the most important advantages of the ion lasers based on the ion transitions of metal vapors and noble gases, is the high quality of radiation (high monochromaticity and coherence). However oscillation on each of active media takes place on restricted number of laser transitions. The purpose of this work is receiving a laser radiation at the same time on several quantum transitions in the wide range of wavelengths when using mix of several active mediums. That increases a set of the laser lines radiated by one laser. The characteristics of ion laser transitions (gain, power, noise level) are substantially improved if a hollow cathode transverse-type discharge is used for pumping of the laser transition, and such method of a pumping was used in this work. It was experimentally found the discharge conditions providing various ratio of laser output power on various laser lines for laser on mixture of helium with cadmium and mercury vapors in which the population inversion and laser oscillation are carried out on mercury ion transition with the wavelengths of 615nm (red), and on cadmium ion transitions with the wavelength of 533,7&537,8nm (green) and 441,6nm (blue), and also for laser on mixture of helium with mercury vapors and krypton which lasing on 431,8nm and 469,4nm blue-green krypton ion lines and 615nm red and 794,5 nm IR mercury ion lines. The studied lasers can be useful at information processing, in a metrology, etc.

  • Investigation of temperature distribution in a TiO2 film under pulsed laser heating

    Theoretical studies of the temperature distribution during laser heating of the TiO2 precursor film on the FTO/glass substrate have been carried out. The simulation was performed on the basis of a numerical solution of the heat equation in the Matlab program to determine the energy density of the laser radiation necessary for crystallization of TiO2. It was shown that on the surface of the TiO2 precursor the temperature reaches a maximum value at a time point of 133 ns with the Gaussian temporal form of the laser pulse. The optimum energy density for crystallization of the TiO2 precursor film with the nanosecond pulse duration is 1.3-1.6 J/cm2, when the film thickness temperature corresponds to 400-500 °C. The obtained results of the simulation are consistent with experimental studies.

  • Investigation and optimization of the gas-powder flow within an off-axis nozzle of the laser technological complex

    Gas-powder dynamics within the off-axis nozzle of the Precitec YC52 laser cladding head (Germany) has been studied using the original Tepler shadow setup, the high-speed tracing system and the laser Doppler anemometer. The length of the laminar part of the gas-powder flow has been optimized for variety of the transport and shielding gas flow, as well as the diameter of the orifice of cyclone. Powder jet at the nozzle’s outlet follows the carrier gas flow structure. In case of 4 mm nozzle’s diameter, the powder stream separates into two stable vortex structures near the surface of the substrate, causing significant losses of powder particles (about 2/3 of the total powder mass) within the melting zone, which finally reduces the efficiency of the deposition process and the powder utilization. Practical recommendations on the application of the optical diagnostic to optimize gas-powder jets for laser cladding are provided.

  • Optical refraction and model methods of taking into account its influence on the characteristics of the range-finding channel of the laser tracking locator

    Laser tracking locators have certain drawbacks, among which there is a strong influence of the atmosphere on their energy and precision parameters, the process of aiming a narrow beam at the object, etc. High requirements for locators (the error of measuring the range to a few centimeters) lead to the need to take into account the state of the atmosphere on the route for application Corrections in the measurements. In particular, the phenomenon of refraction leads to a significant distortion of the signal. To reduce the error of distance measurements it is advisable to use methods to compensate for the effect of refraction or to take it into account and use the correction coefficients. The article shows that the effective solution to this problem in the absence of the possibility of obtaining operational and accurate information about meteorological parameters is the use of parallel laser probing of the atmosphere. More promising in this case is the use of laser methods for controlling atmospheric parameters, which we described and experimentally investigated at the Chauda, ​​Feodosiya, and the Republic of Crimea provinces. The obtained atmospheric data were used to create a mobile laser-television locator for external-trajectory measurements of the descent of the aeroelastic systems "Kafa" and were installed both on the ground and on an air balloon. The trajectories of the descent of balloons and cargo parachute systems were studied.
