Photobleaching of UV-induced defects in Er/Al-doped glasses for fiber lasers
Optical Materials Express. 2020. Vol. 10. No. 10. P. 2669–2678.
This work contains a study of the mechanisms of emerging and dissociation of UV-induced defects responsible for the degradation of the gain in Er- and Al- codoped silica glass. We investigate absorption spectra changes at the visible and ultraviolet range under UV irradiation at 193 nm and show the role of molecular hydrogen in this process. This includes a detailed description of the observed processes in the glass in terms of photochemical reactions. We also considered the effect of photobleaching of defects under 976 nm irradiation.

This paper investigates the theoretical limits of object detection within isotropic scattering media using single-photon lidar. Within a simplified model, we derive the fundamental relationship between the maximum attainable detection range and the required photon count per pulse. Two distinct limiting regimes are analyzed: the ballistic photon regime, which maintains high spatial resolution but necessitates ...

This work presents a new analytical solution of the shallow water theory for cylindrical propagation of long tsunami-like waves in the basin of variable depth. Considered model cases are related to tsunami wave propagation from an asteroid fallen into the sea, or from underwater volcanic eruptions. The corresponding bottom geometries represent radially symmetric obstacles such ...

In this letter, bipolar solitary wave interactions in the Schamel equation are revisited numerically. Two simulation settings are considered: repeated collisions in a periodic domain, and the interaction of a positive solitary wave with a train of negative polarity solitary waves of equal amplitude. In the first case, when the amplitudes are comparable, the larger ...

Исследуются свойства оптических покрытий на основе использования упрощенного симулятора ошибок в толщинах слоев покрытий при их напылении. Обосновывается возможность такого подхода. Выводятся аналитические оценки среднеквадратичного значения нормы вектора ошибок и степени коррелированности ошибок в толщинах слоев покрытия. Изучается зависимость среднеквадратичного значения нормы вектора ошибок и свойств покрытия от уровня случайных ошибок в слоях. ...

We investigate the prospects for observing a specific spectral distortion of the cosmic microwave
background, which occurs due to the anisotropy of the radiation when it is scattered by hot plasma of
galaxy clusters. Detection of this anisotropic Sunyaev-Zel’dovich effect would enable an independent
measurement of the CMB anisotropy multipoles with l 1⁄4 1, 2, 3, allow the ...

Dirty superconducting films with magnetic impurities can exhibit nontrivial behavior in a magnetic field that
polarizes the impurity spins. As predicted by Kharitonov and Feigelman (KF) [JETP Lett. 82, 421 (2005)],
this polarization reduces the exchange scattering rate. Consequently, a parallel magnetic field can enhance
the critical temperature Tc when magnetic-field pair breaking is weak, as realized for ...

Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals have emerged as promising materials for next-generation light-emitting diodes (LEDs) owing to their solution processability, tunable emission wavelengths, narrow emission linewidths, and high photoluminescence quantum yields. Among them, anisotropic nanocrystals, including one-dimensional nanorods (NRs) and two-dimensional nanoplatelets (NPLs), offer additional opportunities for controlling transition dipole moment orientation and light out-coupling efficiency. These ...
