The propagation of an intense laser pulse through an upward density-gradient plasma in a self-modulated laser wakefield acceleration (SM-LWFA) is investigated by using particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations. In the fully relativistic and kinetic PIC simulations, the relativistic and kinetic effects including Landau damping enhance the electron dephasing. This electron dephasing is the most important factor for limiting the energy of accelerated electrons. However, the electron dephasing, which is enhanced by relativistic and kinetic effects in the homogeneous plasma, can be forestalled through the detuning process arising from the longitudinal density gradient. Simulation results show that the detuning process can effectively maintain the coherence of the laser wake wave in the spatiotemporal wakefield pattern, hence considerable energy enhancement is achievable. The spatiotemporal profiles are analyzed for the detailed study on the relativistic and kinetic effects. In this paper, the optimum slope of the density gradient for increasing electron energy is presented for various laser intensities.

Amplitude anomalies or bright spots are often linked to hydrocarbon-bearing reservoirs but can also be caused by tuning effect resulting from interference when two reflectors are close together. Tuning effect can be removed from amplitude maps before seismic amplitude and reservoir thickness data are converted into estimates of hydrocarbon accumulations. The most straightforward way of removing tuning effect or 'detuning' is by comparing the reservoir amplitude in seismic data with the response of wedge or thin-bed models and calibrating the reservoir amplitude using the tuning curves from the models. Volumetric estimation for amplitude plays must be based on detuned amplitude maps because hydrocarbon volumes can be significantly overestimated when conventional amplitude maps are used.

We demonstrate the transmission of uncompressed 4K videos over the photonics-based terahertz (THz) wireless link using a directly modulated distributed feedback laser diode (DFB-LD). For optical heterodyne mixing and data modulation, a DFB-LD was employed and directly modulated with a 5.94-Gb/s non-return-to-zero signal, which is related to a 6G-serial digital interface standard to support ultra-high-definition video resolution. We derived the optimal frequency of the THz carrier by varying the wavelength difference between DFB-LD output and Tunable LD output in the THz signal transmitter to obtain the best transmission performances of the uncompressed 4K video signals. Furthermore, we exploited the negative laser-to-filter detuning for the adiabatic chirp management of the DFB-LD by the intentional discrepancy between the center wavelength of the optical band-pass filter and the output wavelength of the DFB-LD. With the help of the abovementioned methods, we successfully transmitted uncompressed 4K video signals over the 2.3-m wireless transmission distance without black frames induced by time synchronization error.

It is analyzed how performance of phase-locked loop driven by photodetector current in optical receiver will be changed under the condition that Gaussian thermal noise, pattern noise and shot noise are present and the loop has the nonzero detuning frequency. The phase error variance cahnges with the circuit configuration and the produced noise models. The analyzed results are applied to the previously implemented 90.194Mbps optic system whose loop filter is the improved active noninverting 1-st order lag-lead type.

we have analyzed tens of Giga pulse signal generation using sideband injection locking scheme. The numerical model for semiconductor lasers under the strong optical injection is based on the Lang's equation and has been extended in order to take into account the simultaneous injection of the multiple sidebands of the current-modulated laser. The numerical simulation results show that the unselected sidebands will affect the optical and RF-spectral characteristics even though the semiconductor laser is locked to the target sidebands.

A class of adaptive controllers with integral action is proposed, which may riject the offset due to any load disturbance on the plant. Effective integral action and robust identification against the offset can be achieved via the zero-gain predictor. The system is improved, in this paper, to be of more generalized structure, and the detuning control weight which can cope with nonminimum-phase systems is tuned on-line. Discrete-time versions of the improved system are developed, which may be more flexible for the choice of the design parameters. The resulting control systems may also be shown to be robust to the unmodelled dynamics.

The structural dependence of the performance of an 1.55 $1.55{\mu}m$ InGaAsPIInGaAsP MQW electro-absorption modulator for highspeed digital fiber communication was systematically investigated. The effects of n-doped SCH region length $t_n$ as well as the general structure parameters including quantum well number $N_w$, well-thickness $t_w$, detuning wavelength $\Delta\lambda$, and device length L were thoroughly analyzed. Thereby, a high-pelfoIDlance electro-absorption modulator with device length L of $100{\mu}m$ was successfully designed. The designed structure showed excellent characteristics that have residual loss less than -1.5 dB, operational voltage from 0 V to -2V, and extinction ratios of -2.92 dB at $V_{\alpha}$=-1 V and -10 dB at $V_{\alpha}$=-2V.X>=-2V.

By introducing a compressive-strained quanternary InGaAsP quantum-wells instead of a conventional ternary InGaAs quantum-wells in 1.55.mu.m DFB-LD, the lasing performances canb e improved and the problems caused by the thickness non-uniformity and the compositional abruptness among the hetero-interpaces canb e relaxed. In this paper, we investigated an iptimum InGaAsP/InGaAsP multiple-quantum-well(MQW) structure as an active layer in a direct-modulated 1.55.mu. DFB-LD from the view point of threshold current, chirping charcteristics, and resonance frequency. The optimum compressive-strained MQW structure was revealed as InGaAsP/InGaAsP structure with strain amount of about 1.2%, number of wells $N_{w}$ of 7, well width $L_{w}$ of 58.agns.. The threshold current density J of 500A/c $m^{2}$, the linewidth enhancement factor a of 1.8, and differential resonance frequency of d $f_{r}$/d(I-I)$^{1}$2/=2GHz/(mA)$^{1}$2/(atI=2 $I_{th}$) were expected in 1.55.mu.m .gamma./4-shifted DFB-LD with the cavity length of 400.mu.m long and kL value of 1.25. These values are considerably improved ones compared to those of 1.55um DFB-LD with InGaAs/InGaAsP MQW which have enhancement factor and the resonance frequence frequency by the detuning of lasing wavelength and gain-peak wavelength. It was found that the linewidth enhancement factor of 20% and differential resonance frequency of 35% without the degradation of the threshold current density could be enhanced in the range of -15nm~-20nm detuning which can be realized by controlling the thickness and Incomposition of InGaAsP well. well.and Incomposition of InGaAsP well. well.

A modeling methodology for the analysis of injection-locked Fabry-Perot laser diodes (FP-LDs), promising for cost-effective WDM-PON sources, is proposed. The time-domain large-signal model that is used is found to provide quite similar results to some experimental ones. With our methodology, we model characteristics of FP-LDs, such as influence of reflectivity at a facet and detuning on injection-locking. The eye diagram characteristics are also investigated. It is observed that the facet reflectivity at the injection side should be lower than 1% to provide stable operation in terms of good side-mode suppression ratio and independence from detuning between narrow-band injection noise and LD modes. It is also observed that good eye opening can be obtained for 155 Mbps modulation while the parameters such as the active region thickness should be properly optimized to obtain reasonable eye opening at 1.25 Gbps.
