Spatio-temporal study of non-degenerate two-wave mixing in bacteriorhodopsin films

Salvador Blaya, Alejandro González, Pablo Acebal +1 more

A spatio-temporal analysis of non-degenerate two-wave mixing in a saturable absorber, such as bacteriorhodopsin (bR) film, is performed. To do this, a theoretical model describing the temporal variation of the intensities is developed by taking into account the dielectric constant as a function of bR population. A good agreement between theory and experimental measurements is obtained. Thus, the dependence of the optical gain and the main dielectric constant parameters are studied at different intensities and frequencies. As a result, the best intensity-frequency zones where higher coupling is reached are proposed, and it is also demonstrated that non-uniform patterns, which evolve over time as a function of frequency difference, can be observed.

All-optical logic gates based on photoinduced anisotropy of bacteriorhodopsin film

Junhe Han, Baoli Yao, Peng Gao +2 more

All-optical logic gates based on photoinduced anisotropy of bacteriorhodopsin (BR) film are proposed. The photoinduced anisotropy in BR film, which arises from the selective absorption of BR molecules to polarized light, can be controlled by changing the amplitudes and polarizations of exiting beams. As a consequence, the polarization of the probe light passing through the BR film can be controlled by the polarization of the exiting beam. Based on this property, a novel scheme of all-optical logic gates, such as AND, OR, XOR and NOT, has been implemented via the pump-probe technique. A theoretical model for the all-optical logic gates is proposed, and the theoretical predictions are demonstrated with the experimental results.

Phase Conjugation Using Four‐Wave Mixing in Fast Green FCF Dye‐Doped Gelatin Film

M.H. Majles Ara, Simin Mehrabani, Rasoul Malekfar

We present optical phase conjugation based on the degenerate four‐wave mixing (DFWM) arrangement in gelatin films doped with acid blue 3 dye (FAST GREEN FCF) using He‐Ne laser of total power 50 mW. Various parameters which influence the phase‐conjugate (PC) signal during the DFWM process were studied (angle of between the forward pump and the probe beam, transition of gelatin film, reflectivity as a function of forward and backward beam). A maximum phase‐conjugate beam reflectivity of about 0.02% has been observed in these dye‐doped gelatin films. PACS: 42.65.‐k, 42.65.Hw.
