Laser fluctuations are measured and characterized with a new technique based on the concept of first-passage-time distributions. This makes it possible to discern quantum noise in dye laser even presence pump that many orders magnitude larger. We report analytic experimental results for mean, variance, skewness The agree well numerical computations measurements. Our is particularly suited quantitative description above threshold; complements conventional photoelectric counting correlation...
We have measured the distribution of times for single-mode laser radiation to grow from an equilibrium spontaneous-emission background a prescribed value intensity. These passage-time distributions are compared with results Monte Carlo simulations and demonstrate new technique description statistical fluctuations in lasers.
Analytical formula is derived for the propagation factor (known asM(2)-factor) of a stochastic electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model (EGSM) beam in free space and turbulent atmosphere. In space, M(2)-factor an EGSM mainly determined by its initial degree polarization, r.m.s. widths spectral densities correlation coefficients, value remains invariant on propagation. atmosphere, also parameters increases The relative with lower factors, larger longer wavelength less affected atmospheric...

We carry out an experimental and theoretical study of the focusing properties a Gaussian Schell-model (GSM) vortex beam. It is found that we can shape beam profile focused GSM by varying its initial spatial coherence width. Focused dark hollow, flat-topped, spots be obtained in our experiment, which will useful for trapping particles. The results agree well with results.

Since the celebrated twist phase was proposed by Simon and Mukunda, despite tremendous progress made in theory over past decades, developing a simple flexible experimental method to customize this novel has long been tricky challenge. In Letter, we demonstrate general for generating twisted Schell-model beams implementing continuous coherent beam integral function discrete form. Experimental results based on rigorous Laguerre–Gauss modes superposition are also demonstrated, indicating that...
We report the experimental measurement of beam parameters an electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model (EGSM) source based on technique for measuring fourth-order correlation function (i.e., intensity function). Furthermore, we carry out distribution a focused EGSM beam, and theoretical simulation using measured parameters. Our results agree reasonably well with predictions.
A flexible pseudo-mode sampling superposition method for synthesizing partially coherent sources has been introduced that can be thought of as an approximate discrete representation Gori’s nonnegative definiteness criterion designing spatial correlation functions. Importantly, without performing formidable mode analysis, this enables us to develop a convenient and efficient experimental technology customize sacrificing theoretical accuracy. As example, we experimentally generate new, the...
In a recent publication (Appl. Phys. Lett. 100 (2012) 051108), monochromatic partially coherent radially polarized (RP) beam was generated experimentally. this paper, we analyze the spectral changes of polychromatic RP focused by thin lens for first time, and compare with that scalar GSM beam. Furthermore, report experimental generation carry out measurement such lens. Our results show behavior is different from are consistent theoretical predictions.
The inverse method of proving the twistability cross-spectral density (CSD) inevitably falls into spontaneous difficulties. Based on a nonnegative self-consistent design guideline for generating genuine CSDs introduced by Gori and Santarsiero, we demonstrate feasible way twisting partially coherent sources sticking Schell-model function to CSDs, which also determines upper bound strength. Analysis shows that degree coherence new class twisted pseudo-Gaussian beam is neither shift invariant...
