  • Publication number: 20220042859
    Abstract: A high-sensitivity single-crystal fiber temperature measurement method based on the acoustic anisotropy and doping modulation of single-crystal fibers uses single-crystal fibers upon crystal orientation optimization and/or doping ion modification as the probes of ultrasonic temperature sensors. Through crystal orientation optimization and/or doping modification of the single-crystal fibers, the invention improves the density and structural disorders of the single-crystal fibers while maintaining their structural stability to reduce the propagation speed of the ultrasonic waves in single-crystal fibers in a high-temperature environment, thus increasing the delay time between the reflected signals of the sensitive areas and improve the sensitivity of temperature measurements.

  • Patent number: 11193219
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to tellurite crystals, growing methods of the same, and applications thereof; the crystals a chemical formula of MTe3O8, wherein M=Ti, Zr, Hf, which belongs to an Ia-3 space group of a cubic crystal system, wherein a transmittance waveband ranges from visible light to infrared light, with a transparency ?70%. According to the present disclosure, a growing method of a tellurite crystal is provided, wherein the crystal may be grown using a flux method, a Czochralski method, or a Bridgman-Stockbarger method. The tellurite crystals may be used as an acousto-optic crystal for fabricating an optical modulation device. The present disclosure takes the lead internationally in growing the tellurite single crystals, the size and quality of which sufficiently meet the demands of practical applications of the tellurite single crystals.

  • Patent number: 10866437
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to use of a quaternary molybdenum/tungsten tellurite crystal and a device thereof. The quaternary molybdenum/tungsten tellurite crystal is used as an acousto-optic material, wherein the quaternary molybdenum/tungsten tellurite comprises tellurium (Te) and tungsten (W), or tellurium (Te) and molybdenum (Mo). The crystal has abundant kinds, is non-toxic, and includes high, medium and low symmetry crystal systems; it easily produces a large-size and high-quality single crystal and almost meets all requirements of excellent acousto-optic properties. In the present disclosure, by selecting different light transmission directions and excitation source directions to fabricate an acousto-optic device with practical application values according to the requirements of the crystal acousto-optic device and the crystal characteristics, high-performance acousto-optic Q switching laser output is achieved.
