The objective of this article was to investigate the dynamic evolution behaviors of plasma expansion plumes by pulses laser irradiating centimeter-scale spherical space debris. A calculated model of centimeter-scale spherical space debris irradiated by pulses laser was firstly deduced based on FEM (finite element method)/COMSOL, and the action rules of plasma expansion plumes by pulses laser-generated irradiating the debris were simulated for different laser powers and action times. The results showed that the velocity of plasma expansion plumes was increased with the increase of laser powers and action times. Especially, when the laser power was 700 kW and the action time was close to 25 μs, the maximum velocity of plasma expansion plumes approached 1.91 km/s, and the diffusion radius of plasma expansion plumes was increased by about 2.5 mm. Further, the diffusion radius was about twice that of 400 kW when the action time reached about 48 μs. As a result, by simulating the transient flow process of nanosecond pulses laser irradiating small spherical space debris, the flow field evolution information and plasma plumes evolution characteristics of centimeter-scale space debris at nanosecond time resolution were revealed.

The present investigation deals with deformation in microstretch generalized thermoelastic medium subjected to thermomechanical loading induced by thermal laser pulse. The Laplace and Fourier transform techniques are used to solve the problem, and concentrated normal force and thermal source describe the application of this approach. The closed form expressions of normal stress, tangential stress, couple stress, microstress and temperature distribution are obtained for the transferred domain. The numerical inversion technique of Laplace transform and Fourier transform has been applied to obtain the resulting quantities in the physical domain after developing a computer program. Normal stress, tangential stress, coupled stress and microstress temperature distribution are depicted graphically to show the microstretch effect. Some particular and special cases of interest are gathered and presented in the investigation.

Praca przedstawia eksperymentalne wyniki poszerzenia impulsu laserowego dużej mocy w standardowych światłowodach telekomunikacyjnych. Poszerzenie uzyskano poprzez wykorzystanie technologii przewężki dwustronnej, której optymalizacja dla danego typu włókna pozwala na sterowanie tak szerokością impulsu jak i składem widmowym wychodzącej wiązki, prowadząc w konsekwencji do generacji światła białego.

The papers describes the results of a laser pulse broadening in tapered standard single mode fiber. Additional description of a set - up for taper manufacturing, with a principle of its operation, based on elongation procedure of fiber-optics in a low-pressure gas burner, is also presented. A virtue of such a set-up is the possibility of different kinds of taper manufacturing, like punctual, long distance on regular or increasing distance. Tapering process allows us to change a diameter of an optical fiber what means boundary condition changes, beam is propagating in a core (made from silica) surrounded by air. There is a large refractive index step between these two media, allowing for confined pulse (with high power) in a very small area. This effect causes increasing intensity of a propagated beam and amplifies nonlinear effects, like self-phase modulation etc. The article presents the results of pulse broadening obtained in different tapers, made on a single-mode fiber for a wavelength of 1310 nm and a core diameter of about 9 žm. As a light source, the pumped laser operated at a wavelength of 532 nm, which emitted the pulses of 0.6 ns with a repetition rate of about 1 kHz, has been used. All the measured fibers with a taper have a length of about 3 m, where about 1.2 m was for the input (for easier launching) and the output (for easier connection with an optical spectrum analyzer). Experimental results show the pulse broadening in the used taper structures. The best result are obtained for a long distance taper, where the elongated part was about 50 mm (flame brush is travelling to and from along the constant length). For this taper, it can be observed more flat spectrum broadening to the longer wavelength, together with increasing average power of a laser. Theoretically the best broadening we should obtain for a taper length of about 100 mm what will be one of the next subjects of our research. Other tapers also cause broadening effects but their spectra are not so flat. Interesting example is a taper with an increasing length of elongation. We observed additional spectral pick at the wavelength of about 630 nm and 950 nm. These picks are connected with the smaller core diameter obtained in this type of tapering process (the smaller core, the larger broadening). The worst results were for a punctual taper. In this case, a diameter of a taper is very small (about several micrometers) but the losses are very high. The presented results show that biconical tapered single mode optical fiber is a good way to obtain spectral broadening (supercontinuum effect).
