摘要： A system and method for combining plural low power light beams into a coherent high power light beam by means of a diffractive optical element operating as both a beam combiner and beam sampler. An oscillation source transmits a master signal that is split into plural beams propagating at a common wavelength. Each beam is phase locked by a corresponding phase modulator according to a phase correction signal. The beams are directed through a fiber array to the diffractive optical element to allow efficient coherent combination of the beams at a desired diffraction order. The diffractive optical element includes a periodic sampling grating for diffracting a low power sample beam representative of the combined beam. A phase detection stage detects phases of constituent beams in the sample beam from which the phase correction signals are derived and fed back to the phase modulators. The diffractive optical element may be further modified to collimate beams diverging from the fiber array and to focus the sample beam onto a phase detector.

摘要： A system and method for combining plural low power light beams into a coherent high power light beam. Optical amplifiers transmit a plurality of light beams propagating at a common wavelength through an array of optical fiber emitters. Each constituent beam is emitted from the array at a different propagation angle, collimated, and incident on a diffractive optical element operating as a beam combiner such that incident beams when properly phased and located are combined into a coherent beam at a desired diffraction order. A beam splitter or a periodic sampling grating on the diffractive optical element directs a low power sample beam to a spatial filter passing resonant mode output back to the optical amplifiers in a ring laser configuration thereby passively synchronizing phases of the constituent beams to maximize combination efficiency of the coherent beam.

摘要： A seed laser apparatus is disclosed. It comprises a distributed feedback laser system for transmitting a dithered optical signal having a frequency versus time characteristic that is represented by a triangular waveform and an optical medium including a plurality of optical signal paths, each path including an optical fiber and a fiber amplifier. The optical medium is characterized by stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) having a response time, whereby the period of the triangular waveform is equal to the round-trip transit time in the fiber or shorter than the response time of the SBS.

摘要： An improved communication system which provides improved spectral efficiency as well as relatively low co-channel interference modulation characteristics relative to known communication systems. In particular, the communication system includes a modem that includes an arbitrary or chaotic waveform generator and a chaotic waveform demodulator configured as a sliding window correlator that is adapted to modulate and demodulate an arbitrary or chaotic waveforms. The modulator includes a finite impulse response (FIR) filter, for example, formed from tapped delay lines with unequal time delays. The demodulator is formed as a matched filter for recovery of the input data signals. The modem is adapted to transmit either optical or RF waveforms. In order to prevent drift of the tap weights due to temperature drift of the tapped delay lines and other factors, a closed servo loop may be provided for each tap weight. By maintaining the accuracy of the tap weights, the system in accordance with the present invention is adapted to provide arbitrary or chaotic modulation and demodulation of the input data signal thereby providing increased spectral efficiency and improved performance which provides increased data output relative to known communication systems based on modulation of periodic signals while minimizing auto correlation errors.

摘要： A laser array architecture scalable to very high powers by closely stacking fiber amplifiers, but in which the output wavelength is selectable to be in the visible or ultraviolet region, without being restricted by the wavelengths usually inherent in the choice of fiber materials. A pump signal at a fundamental frequency is amplified in the fiber amplifier array and input to an array of nonlinear crystals that function as harmonic generators, producing an output array at a desired harmonic of the fundamental frequency. A phase detection and correction system maintains the array of outputs in phase coherency, resulting in a high power output with high beam quality, at the desired frequency. The array of nonlinear crystals may a single array to produce a second harmonic output frequency, or a combination of multiple cascaded arrays configured to produce a selected higher order harmonic frequency.
