Abstract:
Both of the theoretical calculation and the experimental measurement were performed on the concentration of HO2- in the BHP (basic hydrogen peroxide) solution of the COIL. The variation rule of HO2- concentration versus the ratio of KOH & H2O2 was obtained. The experiments for the influence of HO2- concentration on the utilization of Cl2 and the laser output power were performed. The results were valuable for the optimization of the BHP makeup and the experimental parameters.

Abstract:
As the material of an optical window plane being transmitted through by high-power laser, some part of the laser energy would be absorbed and it may get thermal-deformation and become into thermal-lens. Here we begin from an analysis solution, which has got by us, of the distribution of heat-field in a circular material plane and consisted with the solid mechanics, then the expression of the thermal-focus length has been obtained. The effects different between materials of Al2O3 single crystal and fused silicon has been calculated and compared in 1.315 μm wavelength. Al2O3 single crystal plane is one of the optical material provided with high transparence and high threshold strength in wavelength 1.315 μm. But the ordinary and extraordinary light would be separated in the crystal. This e

Abstract:
This paper studies the thermal lensing effect of optical element under laser heating at non-thermal equilibrium state. The experiment of time sequence observation of laser orientation angel for transmitting laser beam through an optical element under heating of powerful laser has been carried out. It has been found that before thermal equilibrium to become established in the element, its thermal lensing effect presents a kind of behavior of fluctuation. The authors have also provided a preliminary explanation for this phenomenon and pointed out its practical sense.

Abstract:
The circumstance of primary flow mixed with the secondary flow are numerically simulated by varying the flow rate of He in the secondary flow with the same primary flow and the same flow rate of I2 in the secondary flow. The conclusion is obtained by comparing and analyzing these results, that the penetration depth of the transverse secondary flow in the primary flow extends and the state of primary flow mixed with the secondary flow becomes better with the flow rate of He in the secondary flow increased, until the primary flow and the secondary flow are welldistributed.

Abstract:
The dissociation of chlorine molecule has been detected by dissociating the mixture of Cl2 and Ar in the microwave generator. The chlorine atom concentration increased when the pressure of the reactor cell various from 200Pa to 253Pa, we get the Cl2 dissociation over 8% at 256Pa. However, the value dropped rapidly with further increasing the pressure of the cell. It is probably due to the fast recombination rate of the Cl atom at high pressure.

Abstract:
Laser modes in thermal deformation resonators are calculated and analyzed by means of perturbation methods. The coupling among laser modes and the relations between equivalent beam spread angle and the surface deformation of the mirrors are obtained. The theoretical results show that the bigger the thermal deformation at the center of a mirror and the stronger the coupling among laser modes, the more seriously the modes in a laser resonator are distorted. When the thermal deformation value at the center of a mirror is 0.5λ, the central laser intensity of TEM0 is reduced to 50% , and the equivalent beam spread angle is increased to 2 times of the ideal mirror.

Abstract:
The mixed flowfield performance, small signal gain distribution, and output power are numerically simulated by changing the position of the iodine injector with constant primary and secondary flowrate. This study shows that the mixed flowfield results worse, the magnitude of small signal gain becomes smaller, the output power gets lower, and the decay of laser intensity vs x goes slower while the position of the iodine injector moves forward alone the flow direction.

Abstract:
Laserinduced damage thresholds (LIDT) of several kinds of optical dielectric coatings were measured using some lasers with different output characteristics. Typical damage process was discovered through microcosmic analysis of coatings. In particular, the influences of laser output characteristics on laserinduced damage statuses in coatings were investigated. It's given that a pulsed laser is easier to damage an objective than a continuouswave laser in condition of the same laser energy. However, CW laser can easily cause ablation damage in objectives by accumulation of energy.

Abstract:
In Chemical-Mechanical polishing experiments we produced optical quality super smooth surfaces on singlecrystal silicon, but cannot insure the surface figure. In order to avoid the alveoli and achieve a good optical surface, a continuously adding slurry method with digging four welldistributed holes was used and advanced in this article. The best results were obtained as 0.268λ peak to peak surface (its diameter 152.4mm) and rms 0.065λ using this method.

Abstract:
A calibrated piston source of light, which simulates a cylindrical-volume luminosity source, has been introduced to measure the absolute concentration of illuminant particles. It is proved that this Piston Source Method is one of the simplest and most convenient ways to measure the absolute concentration of illuminant particles, especially in real time measurements of O2(a1? ) in a singlet oxygen generator. The relative error of O2(a1? ) concentration is less than 20%.

Abstract:
Because of the complicated kinetic reasons, the gain distribution in laser medium is usually inhomogeneous for Chemical Oxygen Iodine Laser, it will cause the laser output power will not increased with the increasing of the laser output aperture, and it is also by the same reason, the laser output power will be varied with the position of optical axis, even if the laser output aperture keep constant. So, when the laser parameters is constant, the laser output power has the dependence on laser output aperture and position of optical axis, and this dependence is reported in this paper.

The experimental rule for the variation of laser power versus the flowrate of iodine was obtained on a COIL device using a jettype singlet oxygen generator with pipearray, in which the flowrate of Cl2 was 250mmol/s. Theoretical analysis was given for the phenomenon. The results can help us to optimize the flowrate of iodine.

Abstract:
The breakup lengths of jets for glycerine and water solution emerged from the nozzles with the various passage/diameter ratio, and different manufacture methods, were experimentally investigated. The behavior of a jet depends dramatically on the flow state, laminar or turbulent, in the nozzle. The turbulence induced by the defects of nozzle, such as the burr at the inlet and outlet, and the roughness of the wall, is the main cause to decrease the length of intact jet. These results may be helpful to design and manufacture an appropriate nozzle of the jet O2(1Δ) generators for COIL.
