  Abstract:Block principal component analysis with 1-norm (BPCA-L1) has demonstrated its effectiveness in a lot of visual classification and data mining tasks. However, the greedy strategy for solving the 1-norm maximization problem is prone to being struck in local solutions. In this paper, we propose a BPCA with nongreedy 1-norm maximization, which obtains better solutions than BPCA-L1 with all the projection directions optimized simultaneously. Other than BPCA-L1, the new algorithm has been evaluated against some popular principal component analysis (PCA) algorithms including PCA-L1 and 2-D PCA-L1 on a variety of benchmark data sets. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. © 2013 IEEE.

  Abstract:Aim to high temporal resolution of the streak image tube in streak camera, the factors which influence the physical temporal dispersion, technical temporal dispersion and time jitter of the sweep circuit were discussed. The streak image tube was optimized, in which a pair of traveling wave deflectors was located before a magnetic solenoid lens. The inner time-varying electric field of traveling wave deflectors was simulated by CST electromagnetic studio. And the propagation velocity of electromagnetic wave was calculated. The results show that when leg length is 8 mm, leg width is 1mm, interval is 0.24 mm, pin length is 2.5 mm, deflector thickness is 1 mm and deflector length is 17.12 mm, the moving velocity of electrons and propagation velocity of the electromagnetic wave are matching. Based on the electron trajectory tracing method and the Rayleigh criterion, dynamic temporal and spatial characteristics of the streak image tube were analyzed, a dynamic temporal resolution of 200 fs in single sweep mode, dynamic temporal resolution of 208 fs in synchronized sweep mode, and a dynamic spatial resolution of above 20 lp/mm were obtained. © 2016, Science Press.

  Abstract:We use a vector phase sensitive amplification (PSA) scheme, which can eliminate the inherent phase noise (PN) to amplitude noise (AN) conversion in a conventional PSA process. A dispersion-engineered silicon strip waveguide is used to investigate the vector PSA scheme at the telecom wavelengths. The phase-dependent gain and phase-tophase transfer functions as well as constellation diagram at different signal polarization states (SPSs) are numerically analyzed. It is found that the PN to AN conversion is completely suppressed when the SPS is identical to one of the pump polarization states. Moreover, the binary phase shift keying signal is regenerated by the proposed vector PSA scheme, and the error vector magnitude is calculated to assess the regeneration capacity. Our results have potential application in all-optical signal processing. © 2016 Optical Society of America.

  Abstract:A highly tunable bandgap-guiding polymer photonic crystal fiber is designed by infiltrating the cladding air holes with liquid crystal 5CB. Structural parameter dependence and thermal tunability of the photonic bandgaps, mode properties and confinement losses of the designed fiber are investigated. Bandgaps red shift as the temperature goes up. Average thermal tuning sensitivity of 30.9 nm/°C and 20.6 nm/°C is achieved around room temperature for the first and second photonic bandgap, respectively. Our results provide theoretical references for applications of polymer photonic crystal fiber in sensing and tunable fiber-optic devices. © 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

  Abstract:The stochastic resonance based on optical bistability in the semiconductor optical amplifier is numerically investigated to extract a weak pulse signal buried in noise. The output property of optical bistability under different system parameters is analyzed, which determines the performance of the stochastic resonance. Through optimizing these parameters, the noise-hidden signal is extracted via stochastic resonance, in which the maximum cross-correlation gain higher than nine is obtained. This provides a novel technology for detecting a weak optical signal in various signal processing fields. © 2016 Chinese Optics Letters.

  Abstract:A pulse width tunable fiber-based chirp pulse amplification (CPA) system had been built by our newly developed dispersion tuning mechanism. In order to realize dispersion fine tuning, we changed the temperature of chirped fiber Bragg grating (CFBG), which was used as stretcher in CPA system, to change the dispersion compensation level between stretcher and grating pairs compressor. By the help of this method, the minimum pulse width after compression can be obtained by balancing the dispersion of the stretcher and of the compressor. In our experimental fiber CPA system, the minimum pulse duration of 780 fs was recorded by autocorrelator during the CFBG temperature tuning at temperature range of 0 °C to 50 °C, and the pulse tuning accuracy can reach about 3 fs/ °C. © 2016 Elsevier GmbH

  Abstract:In this work, we report a passively Q-switched Nd:YAG laser at 1064 nm by using WS2 solution as the saturable absorber (SA). The WS2 solution with different concentrations (0.25, 0.5, and 1 mg/ml) were fabricated by the liquid-phase-exfoliated method and injected into quartz cells. Such liquid absorbers have the virtues of adjustable optical absorption, high heat dissipation and non-contact damage. By inserting those WS2 solutions in the laser cavity, stable Q-switched laser operations were obtained. The corresponding pulse duration as short as 922 ns was obtained. The result shows that the WS2 material can be act as absorber for solid-state lasers. © 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  Abstract:The report presents the high power mode-locking operation in an anomalous-dispersion fiber laser with a novel WS2 saturable absorber (SA) based on fluorine mica (FM) substrate. Compared to organic host material such as polymer, FM has higher softening temperature, heat dissipation and laser damage threshold. By employing the SA, a stable mode-locked fiber laser is achieved. The duration of the pulse broadens from 2.816 ns to 3.654 ns almost linearly with increasing pump power. The average output power and single pulse energy can increase up to 33.5 mW and 4 nJ at the maximum pump power respectively. The results indicate that WS2/FM material is an ideal SA for high power Er-doped fiber (EDF) lasers. © 2016 Elsevier GmbH

  Abstract:By the numerical modeling and experimental test, the influence of temperature on "smile" was studied. By using the finite element method, the thermal stresses induced during bar bonding and operating process were simulated respectively. In simulations, it is assumed that the deformation of the laser bar is only caused by the thermal stress. The simulated results show that the thermal stress across the laser bar decreases with the increasing of heatsink temperature. As thus, the curve of the laser bar induced by packaging thermal stress will decrease with the increasing of the temperature. In this experiment, "smile" of five samples from the same wafer and batch was measured under different heatsink temperatures. Experimental results show that "smile" of the five samples increases or decreases as heatsink temperature increasing. The possible reason which is related with the combined action between the primitive bending shape of the bare bar and the mounting thermal stress. If the bare bar before packaging is flat or convex, "smile" of the diode laser bar will decrease as the heatsink temperature increasing. In addition, if the bare bar is concave and the laser bar is still concave after packaging, "smile" will increase with the increasing of heatsink temperature. © 2016, Science Press.

  Abstract:A class of new spatiotemporal solitary solution to nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a parabolic potential is investigated analytically and numerically using the F-expansion method and homogeneous balance principle. The propagation characteristics of soliton wave solutions are analyzed with/without spatial-temporal chirp. It is noteworthy that, by calculating spatial and temporal second-order intensity moment, several novel features of optical beam propagations are obtained, such as stable, oscillating, decaying and blowing up. Additionally, controllability of these solutions with the modulation depth of the parabolic potential is demonstrated. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.
