    Notes: The power generation in a gasdynamic laser (GDL) has been theoretically studied. Quasi-one-dimensional unsteady flow equations are numerically solved simultaneously with the rate equation for the laser intensity inside the laser cavity. Steady-state coupled solutions for the field variables and the laser intensity inside the GDL cavity are obtained by a time-dependent numerical technique. The laser intensity variations along the axis of the flow (across the laser cavity) are computed for different laser gas mixture compositions and reservoir conditions. The analysis predicts a sharp spike in the laser intensity at the leading edge of the laser cavity followed by a sharp fall from which it recovers to a uniform constant value for the lower H2O concentrations. It is shown that the H2O concentration above 2% in the CO2-N2-H2O gas mixture is detrimental to the power generation.

    Notes: A generalized two-dimensional flow-radiation coupled model to extract power from a gasdynamic laser is proposed. The model is used for the study of power extraction from a 9.4-μm CO2 downstream-mixing gasdynamic laser, where a cold CO2+H2 stream is mixed with a vibrationally excited N2 stream at the nozzle exits. This model is developed by coupling radiation with the two-dimensional, unsteady, laminar and viscous flow modeling needed for such systems. The analysis showed that the steady-state value of 9.4-μm intensity as high as 5×107 W/m2 can be obtained from the system studied. The role of H2 relaxant in the power extraction process has also been investigated.

    Notes: The analysis of propagation of a normal shock wave in CO2-N2-He or H2 or H2O system seeded with solid particles is presented. The variation of translational and vibrational temperatures of gas phase and the particle temperatures in the relaxation zone behind the shock front are given in graphical form. These results show that the peak value of population inversion and the width of the inversion zone are highest for He catalyst and lowest for H2O catalyst.

    Notes: A simplified energy-level scheme is proposed for the photochemical cycle of the bacteriorhodopsin molecule. Rate equations are solved for the detailed light-induced processes based on this model and the intensity-induced population densities in various states of the molecule at steady state are computed which are used to obtain an analytic expression for the absorption coefficient of the modulation beam. Modulation of the probe laser-beam transmission by the modulation-laser-beam intensity-induced population changes is analyzed. It is predicted that for a probe beam at 412 nm up to 82% modulation can be achieved using a laser beam intensity of 3.2 W/cm2 at 570 nm. For temperatures ∼77 K, the transmission at 610 nm can be switched from zero to 81% for modulating laser intensity of 11 W/cm2. Construction of a spatial light modulator based on bacteriorhodopsin molecules is proposed and some of its features are discussed. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The generation of a 16 μm laser beam through cascading in a downstream-mixing CO2 gasdynamic laser is studied. To simulate actual lasing action, a generalized, two-dimensional, flow-radiation-coupled power extraction model for a gasdynamic laser is used. Also, to model the cascade process a new four-mode CO2-N2 vibrational kinetic model has been proposed. The steady-state intensity obtained for an exclusive 9.4 μm transition is of the order of 5×107 W/m2. In the cascade mode of operation the steady-state intensities for 9.4 and 16 μm transitions of the order of 5×107 W/m2 and 1.0×106 W/m2, respectively, have been obtained.

    Notes: A new method for producing simultaneous lasing at 10.6 μm and 38.3 μm in a CO2-N2-CS2 gasdynamic laser is presented. The theoretical analysis predicts small-signal gain values of the order 0.21 m−1 for 10.6 μm lasing in CO2 molecules and 0.085 m−1 for 38.3 μm lasing in CS2 molecules, indicating the possibility of dual wave lasing.

    Notes: Passive mode locking of lasers using the protein molecule bacteriorhodopsin which acts as a slow saturable absorber is proposed. Based on the self-consistent approach, expressions for the laser pulse energy and pulsewidth are derived. It is shown that mode-locked pulses of 64 fs duration and 7 nJ energy could be generated in the visible region by this method.

    Notes: The propagation of a normal shock wave into the CO2-N2-He gas mixture seeded with solid particles is analyzed. The translation-vibration and vibration-vibration molecular energy exchange processes in the gas mixture are included in the analysis. The results indicate the creation of population inversions due to these processes in the relaxation region behind the shock wave for transitions at 50 and 22 μm in CO2 molecules. The presence of solid particles in the flow is found to be advantageous for observing the laser radiation behind the shock wave. Effects of the frozen shock Mach number, the particle size, the particle-to-gas mass loading ratio, and the laser gas mixture composition on the population inversions are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The theoretical study of the propagation of a bell-shaped light pulse through a saturable absorber having excited-state absorption is presented. Assuming that the pulse-width is longer than the first excited-state lifetime of the absorber, a general expression for the steady-state transmission of the absorber is obtained. It is shown that when the excited-state absorption cross-section is larger than the ground-state absorption cross-section (reverse saturable absorber) the absorber acts as a power limiter. An explicit expression for the change of temporal pulse-width in a single transit through the absorber is obtained, which shows that the pulse-width increases due to the presence of excited-state absorption. An analytical expression is presented for the optimum pulse intensity at which the maximum pulse broadening occurs.
