Ionization and dissociation of acetonitrile by intense femtosecond laser pulse

Photoionization and photodissociation of CH3CN were studied by a linear time of flight mass spectrometer coupled with 800 nm, 50 fs laser pulses at intensities of 6.3×1013-1.2×1014 W/cm2. The laser power dependences for principal ions CH3CN+, CH2CN+, CHCN+ and CCN+ were measured, which are consistent with the numbers of photons required to produce the ions via multiphoton ionization and dissociation. The results show that eight-photon non-resonant multiphoton ionization is the main photoionization mechanism of the parent ion CH3CN+, while the fragment ions were produced through the dissociation of the molecules in the super-excited states.     

Intense laser induced field ionization of C<Subscript>2</Subscript>H<Subscript>2</Subscript>, C<Subscript>2</Subscript>H<Subscript>4</Subscript>, and C<Subscript>2</Subscript>H<Subscript>6</Subscript>

Using HOMO Field Ionization Model, the tunneling probabilities and the theoretical threshold intensities of the field ionizations of acetylene, ethylene, and ethane in intense laser field are calculated. C2H2, C2H4, and C2H6 were irradiated by 800 nm, 100 fs laser pulses with the intensity range of 10^13-10^14 W/cm^2. A TOF-mass spectrometer was coupled to the laser system and used to experimentally investigate the field ionization of these molecules. The experimental ionization threshold intensities are obtained. The calculating results of the three molecules agree well with the experimental results, indicating that HOMO Field Ionization Model is valid for the ionization of polyatomic molecules in intense laser field.

High pulse energy femtosecond large-mode-area photonic crystal fiber laser

A high pulse energy femtosecond fiber laser based on a large-mode-area photonic crystal fiber is demonstrated. A segment of Yb-doped single-polarization large-mode-area photonic crystal fiber with extremely low nonlinearity is explored as gain media of this fiber laser, resulting in intrinsically envi- ronmentally stability. The fiber laser is based on a linear cavity with dispersion compensation free con- figuration, and the stable mode-locking is obtained by a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror （SESAM）. The fiber laser directly generates 2.5 W of average power at a repetition rate of 51.4 MHz, corresponding to a single pulse energy of 50 nJ. The output pulse duration is 4.2 ps, which is dechirped to 410 fs after extracavity dispersion compensation. The nonlinear absorption of SESAM determines the pulse shaping at low output power, while the mode-locking mechanism is under the balance between spectrum broadening from self-phase-modulation and gain filtering at the high output power.     

Optical data storage in nonphotosensitive media by femtosecond laser pulses

Ultrashort lasers have become powerful tools by inducing extremely nonlinear effects in a wide variety of materials. Femtosecond laser data storage in non-photosensitive media is promising for its high density and fast retrieval.

Neutral dissociation of methane in the ultra-fast laser pulse

Neutral fragments of methane were performed using femetosecond laser at an intensity of 10^（13-14） W/cm^2. A new mechanism of neutral dissociation is proposed in this work. The methane molecule is excited to super-excited states, in which it would dissociate into neutral fragments. We made Morse type potential energy surfaces for the super-excited molecules. Furthermore, we investigated the dissociation dynamics of the super-excited states by using quasi-claseical trajectory （QCT） method. The results thus interpret the neutral dissociation of the methane molecule in the ultra-fast laser pulse.

飞秒激光在蓝宝石晶体表面加工微细结构的实验研究

由于蓝宝石晶体具有很高的硬度和耐磨蚀性,很难进行机械和化学腐蚀加工。笔者利用波长780 nm、频率1 kHz和脉冲宽度164 fs的飞秒脉冲激光在蓝宝石晶体表面进行了微细结构加工的实验研究。采用飞秒激光静态照射蓝宝石晶体表面,通过飞秒激光烧蚀孔的直径和脉冲能量的关系,计算了飞秒激光烧蚀蓝宝石晶体的两种烧蚀状态下的烧蚀阈值和有效烧蚀半径。通过直线扫描实验,在不同实验条件下在蓝宝石晶体表面加工微槽,获得微槽的宽度和深度与飞秒激光主要参数之间的关系。研究结果表明,微槽的加工表面可通过增加扫描次数而得到明显的提高,且扫描次数的增加对微槽的宽度和深度基本无影响。利用聚焦的飞秒激光束沿着轨迹扫描,在蓝宝石晶体表面加工出比较清洁的微小结构,可以为实现微结构的精密加工提供指导。     

Monitor and control of neuronal activities with femtosecond pulse laser

Combined with the fluorescence labeling technique, two-photon microscopy excited with femtosecond pulse laser has become an important tool for neuroscience research. In this research, the calcium signals from neurons in rat cortex slice were monitored by a custom-built two-photon microscopy, and the spontaneous calcium signals and the pharmacological responses as well as the responses to femtosecond pulse laser stimulation were recorded. The results showed that the amplitude of the cal- cium signals increased in direct proportion to the corresponding electrical activities. Glutamate induced a calcium transient, but continuous application resulted in smaller response. Simultaneous monitoring of neuronal populations distinguished the neurons of different microcircuits. The femtosecond pulse laser induced local or global calcium signals in the pyramidal neurons. The approach of interrogation and control of neural activities using femtosecond pulse laser is non-contact, nondestructive, repeatable, and without any additional substrates, which will contribute to the development of neuroscience.     

Preparation of porous microstructures on NiTi alloy surface with femtosecond laser pulses

Porous microstructures on Nickel-Titanium （NiTi） alloy surfaces were prepared by linearly polarized femtosecond lasers with moving focal point at a certain speed. It was found that various novel micro- structures from feather-like ripples to cluster-like porous textures could be formed with increasing laser energy. Particularly, when the laser energy was 400 llJ, a periodic porous metal surface was gen- erated. Measurement of X-ray diffraction showed that the grains on the sample surface were refined through femtosecond laser ablation processes, but the crystal structures still kept their original states. Analysis by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed that Ni/l＂i on the sample surface was changed with an evident oxidization of titanium element under different laser energies. This investigation pro- vides a new approach to improve the biocompatibility of NiTi-based implant devices.
