Fundamental to many applications of laser pulses in science and technology is an extended interaction length with matter that significantly exceeds the distance over which the pulse would normally diffract and transversely spread. At low…
Dye attenuation, or photometric imaging, is an optical technique commonly used in fluid dynamics to measure tracer concentration fields and fluid thicknesses under the assumption that the motion of the dye is representative of the fluid…
We report on optical imaging studies of self-healing after laser-induced photodamage in disperse orange 11 dye doped into poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) polymer. In particular, the high spatial-contrast image of the damage track made by a…
A rapid and efficient photo-bleaching process was demonstrated with a high-energy nanosecond pulse to recover existing and/or revealed color centers on 10 kGy Gamma-irradiated Yb-doped optical fiber. Multi-mJ pulsed laser based on an…
Diffusion of tracer dye molecules in water confined to nanoscale is an important subject with a direct bearing on many technological applications. It is not yet clear however, if the dynamics of water in hydrophilic as well as hydrophobic…
This fluid dynamics video showcases how optically induced electrowetting can be used to manipulate liquid droplets in open space and particulate phases inside the droplet. A photoconductive layer is added to a conventional…
Miniaturization of continuous fluorescence detection is a challenging task due to the multiple and sensitive parameters intervening in the process. By analyzing fluorescence sensing architectures proposed during the last two years, this…
A near-minimal instance of optical cooling is experimentally presented wherein the internal-state entropy of a single atom is reduced more than twofold by illuminating it with broadband, incoherent light. Since the rate of optical pumping…
X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy was used to measure the diffusive dynamics of colloidal particles in a shear flow. The results presented here show how the intensity autocorrelation functions measure both the diffusive dynamics of the…
This paper discusses laser-induced flow stabilizing of Rayleigh particle jets. Laser technology, has important applications in micro/nano-scale static monomer particle operations, such as optical tweezers, or is used for the passive…
The dynamics of electron injection in the direct laser acceleration (DLA) regime was investigated by means of three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations and theoretical analysis. It is shown that when an ultra-intense laser pulse…
We study passive scalar mixing by parallel shear flows in the presence of weak molecular diffusion. We recover the sharp uniform-in-diffusivity mixing rate for shear flows with finitely many critical points, recently proven in [1]. Our…
The theory of nonlinear diffraction of intensive light beams propagating through photorefractive media is developed. Diffraction occurs on a reflecting wire embedded in the nonlinear medium at relatively small angle with respect to the…
Chaos in semiconductor lasers or other optical systems has been intensively studied in the past two decades. However, modulation around threshold has received much less attention, in particular in gain-modulated semiconductor lasers. In…
Optical tweezers, formed by tightly focused propagating laser beams, offer the unique capability to trap and control microscopic particles over a broad size range. However, the diffraction inherent to propagating optical fields, limits the…
Random fiber laser (RFL) is a complex physical system that arises from the distributed amplification and the intrinsic stochasticity of the fiber scattering. There has been widespread interest in analyzing the underlying lightwave kinetics…
Signatures of superfluid-like behaviour have recently been observed experimentally in a nonlinear optical mesh lattice, where the arrival time of optical pulses propagating in a pair of coupled optical fiber loops is interpreted as a…
The atmospheric temperature inhomogeneities are the main cause of the index of refraction variations resulting in strong fluctuations of intensity of the laser beams propagating through the atmosphere. It is shown that the…
Particle diffusion in rotating drums is studied via computer simulations using a full 3-D model which does not involve any arbitrary input parameters. The diffusion coefficient for single-component systems agree qualitatively with previous…
We report on studies of simultaneous continuous-wave mirrorless lasing on multiple optical transitions, realized by pumping hot cesium vapor with laser light resonant with the 6$S_{1/2}\rightarrow 8$P$_{3/2}$ transition. The multiplicity of…
