美国物理学家表示,他们探索出了一种探测电流的新方法。这一方法基于二次谐波产生的过程,就像一个能远程监控电子速度的“雷达测速仪”一样,能直接“看”到电子的运动并测出电子的速度。相关研究论文发表在《物理评论快报》杂志上。 美国堪萨斯大学的物理学助教赵辉(音译)和教授朱迪·吴等人在超快激光实验室进行了这项实验。他们发现,高能激光器发出的光照射在一种包含有移动电子的材料上时,会产生不同颜色的光。在实验中,他们仔细研究了纤薄的砷化镓晶体材料,该材料广泛应用于高速电子学和高速光子学。通过朝整块晶体施加电压,他们让电子以特定的速度在晶体内流动。用人眼看不见的红外激光脉冲照射该晶体,会产生人眼可见的红光,这正是二次谐波产生过程出现的信号。 他们还发现,红光的亮度与电子的速度成比例,也就是说电子运动速度越快,红光越亮;而当电子没有直接运动时,没有红光出现。赵辉表示:“通过探测红光,我们能精确测量电子的速度,电子不需要同其他样本接触;我们也不会干扰电子的活动。在此项研究之前,现有探测实验技术都基于电流有三个效应:它能为系统充电、改变系统的温度并产生磁场。而科学家最新发现,电流还具有光子效应,这种使用激光研究电流的新方法完全基于这一最新效应。” 研究人员表示,新方法有望改善现今的很多可再生能源技术,诸如太阳能电池、人工光合作用以及水分解等,因为这些技术都依靠对电流进行探测。而且,能更好“阅读”电子运动的传感器可能会成为下一代手机和计算机的基础。 论文摘要: Second-Harmonic Generation Induced by Electric Currents in GaAs We demonstrate a new, nonlinear optical effect of electric currents. First, a steady current is generated by applying a voltage on a doped GaAs crystal. We demonstrate that this current induces second-harmonic generation of a probe laser pulse. Second, we optically inject a transient current in an undoped GaAs crystal by using a pair of ultrafast laser pulses and demonstrate that it induces the same second-harmonic generation. In both cases, the induced second-order nonlinear susceptibility is proportional to the current density. This effect can be used for nondestructive, noninvasive, and ultrafast imaging of currents. These advantages are illustrated by the real-time observations of a coherent plasma oscillation and spatial resolution of current distribution in a device. This new effect also provides a mechanism for electrical control of the optical response of materials.

As previously, increased scattering losses of higher order modes, as compared with that of the fundamental mode, are achieved in the petal holey structure with the larger hole number. Then, about 1 mW of the SFM output is achieved in the above 6−μm VCSEL emitting the 850−nm radiation (line 42). Relatively low output is a result of high optical losses introduced by the mode discrimination mechanism, surprisingly high as com− pared with the previous similar structure. However, divergence of the output beam of this device is very low (3.2°) which results from enlarged lateral dimension of the hole along the radial direction outwards from the centre , so the hole depth is gradually increased. Resulting graded index profile in the top DBR broadens the optical field which leads to this ultra−narrow beam divergence . ” 文章作者W. NAKWASKI介绍: Professor W.
