For sale by the National Technical Information Service Springfield, Virginia 22161 Price - $7.00 PREFACE Approximately 75 scientists gathered at Ames Research Center, NASA, Moffett Field, California on 27-28 January 1975 to attend the 2nd NASA Conference on Laser Energy Conversion. They heard the presentations of 18 technical papers and participated enthusiastically in « the discussions that followed. It was generally agreed, and evidenced by comments made during the final summary discussion, that they were both informed and stimulated by the results of initial studies and developments made in certain converter areas, by the advances made in ancillary devices and techniques, and by the possibilities of the more speculative approaches to this newly developing area of advanced technology. Why hold a laser energy conversion conference? To answer this we must first answer another question: why is NASA interested in laser power transmission? Quite simply because it may _ ultimately allow space missions which would be impossible by other means. -

It is not limited to photons in the visible spectrum. There are 3 x-ray lasers, infrared lasers, UV lasers etc. Properties of Laser Light • The light emitted from a laser is monochromatic, that is, it is of one color/wavelength. In contrast, ordinary white light is a combination of many colors • Lasers emit light that is highly directional, that is, laser light is emitted as a relatively narrow beam in a specific direction. Ordinary light, such as from a light bulb, is emitted in many directions away from the source. • The light from a laser is said to be coherent, which means that the wavelengths of the laser light are in phase in space and time. Ordinary light can be a mixture of many wavelengths. Ordinary Light vs. Laser Light Ordinar Laser y Light Light Basic Concepts: Laser is a narrow beam of light of a single wavelength (monochromatic) in which each wave is in phase (coherent) with other near it. -

Surface Analysis Correlated with Structural and Mechanical Properties of Laser Irradiated Brass

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Brass targets were irradiated with various laser pulses of Excimer laser ranging from 1200 to 3000 for constant fluence of 3.4 J/cm2 in oxygen atmosphere (100 Torr). The surface morphology and crystallographic analyses were performed by using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD). SEM analysis reveals the formation of laser-induced micro-sized cavi- ties, bumps, cones and wave-like ridges with non-uniform shape and density distribution. These features are formed for all number of pulses; however with increasing number of pulses from 1200 to 2400, the density of cavities decreases whereas, the wave-like ridges become more pro- nounced and bump-formation is vanished. For maximum number of 3000 shots, the appearance of cones and wave-like ridges becomes diffusive, whereas the density and size of cavities increase again. XRD analysis demonstrates that no new phases are formed in irradiated brass. However, the change in peak intensity along with lower and higher angle shifting is observed which is at- tributed to generation of laser induced stresses. -
Copper Vapor Laser Drilling of Copper, Iron, and Titanium Foils In
Copper vapor laser drilling of copper, iron,, and titanium foils In atmospheric pressure air and argon J. S. Lash and R. M. Gilgenbach fntense Energy Beam Interaction Laboratory, Nucieat Engineering Departmerzr. The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-2104 (Received 19 March 1993; acceptedfor publication 27 July 1993) A copper vapor laser (5 11 and 578 nm) is used to drill submillimeter diameter holes in 0.025- 0.127 mm thick foils of copper, iron, and titanium. Foils are machined in atmospheric pressure air and argon. The laser is repetitively pulsed at 10 kHz with a per pulse energyof 0.5 mJ giving an averagepower of 5 W at the sample surface for a pulse width of 40 ns. A p-i-n photodiode and a photomultiplier tube detector are connectedto a digital-display timing circuit that records the number of incident laser pulses used to drill through the sample. The number of pulses is converted to an averagedrilling time and can provide an estimate for the averagelaser energy used to drill the hole. Typical data for all three materials with a per-pulse fluence of 0.7 J/cm2 ranged from 0.1 to 500 s to produce holes of -0.3 mm diameter. Drilling times decreasedin some casesby an order of magnitude when machining in air. This is attributed to the increased laser absorption of the metal-oxide layer formed in air and was especially noticeable with titanium. A continuous wave thermal model is used to compare experimental data as well as verify the thermal machining mechanism. -
∑ on the Delay Time of the Total Signal from a Set of Transmitters
Technical Physics, Vol. 50, No. 1, 2005, pp. 1–10. Translated from Zhurnal TekhnicheskoÏ Fiziki, Vol. 75, No. 1, 2005, pp. 3–13. Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Bukhman. THEORETICAL AND MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS On the Delay Time of the Total Signal from a Set of Transmitters N. S. Bukhman Samara State Academy of Architecture and Civil Engineering, 443001 Samara, Russia e-mail: [email protected] Received April 15, 2004 Abstract—The time dependence of the total signal from a group of closely spaced acoustic or electromagnetic transmitters radiating the same (up to an amplitude factor) signals is considered. If the duration of the partial signal is sufficiently long, the time dependence of the signal from the set of transmitters turns out to be close to that of the signal from a single transmitter up to a delay time. This delay does not necessarily coincide with the time it takes for an optical (or acoustic) signal to pass from the transmitters to the observation point. At different points of the space, this delay time may exceed, or be shorter than, the light (sound) delay time and also may be positive or negative. This follows from the backward or forward extrapolation of the time dependence of the signal when variously delayed and attenuated copies of the same signal that are produced by different transmit- ters are added up (i.e., interfere). One result of such an extrapolation, which arises upon transmitting a signal with its leading or trailing edge cut off, is the reconstruction of its time dependence, i.e., the detection of the nontransmitted part of the signal. -

For the past five years, we have been working together on multiple projects in the field of quantum metrology, in which he has valuable insight, and always provides helpful comments and suggestions. With his help, I learned time management skills to work more efficiently, how to think like a scientist, and how to become a researcher. I truly appreciate his trust in me and the financial support from him and Dr. Verma, which made it possible for me to complete my doctorate degree. I am also extremely grateful of all the other committee members, Dr. Pramode Verma, Dr. Alberto Marino, Dr. Samuel Cheng, Dr. Gregory MacDonald, and Dr. Robert Huck, for their help over the past few years and precious comments on the dissertation. -
Quantum State Entanglement Creation, Characterization, and Application
“When two systems, of which we know the states by their respective representatives, enter into temporary physical interaction due to known forces between them, and when after a time of mutual influence the systems separate again, then they can no longer be described in the same way as before, viz. by endowing each of them with a representative of its own. I would not call that one but rather the characteristic trait of quantum mechanics, the one that enforces its entire departure from classical lines of thought. By the interaction, the two representatives (or ψ-functions) have become entangled.” —Erwin Schrödinger (1935) 52 Los Alamos Science Number 27 2002 Quantum State Entanglement Creation, characterization, and application Daniel F.
