Embodiment Construction

[0037] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, which are explanations rather than limitations of the present invention.

[0038] Although the femtosecond heterodyne optical Kerr-gate gated imaging technology proposed by the applicant (patent application number: 201310471560.0) has improved the imaging resolution under the condition of non-scattering medium, it is not effective in the actual condition of strong scattering medium. In imaging applications, part of the scattered light is introduced as the background of imaging. This background noise increases the imaging signal-to-noise ratio, reduces the imaging contrast, and even makes it impossible to achieve single-pulse imaging. And the present invention is the further improvement to femtosecond heterodyne optical Kerr gate, the femtosecond differential optical Kerr gate gating single-pulse imaging technique that the present inventi...

Abstract

The invention discloses a femtosecond differential optical Kerr gate and an imaging device and method based on the optical Kerr gate. A probe light path is provided with a target to be detected, a scattering medium, the femtosecond differential optical Kerr gate and two single-pulse triggering CCDs in sequence, wherein the femtosecond differential optical Kerr gate is composed of a polarizer, an optical Kerr medium, a first beam splitting piece, two quarter-wave plates and two analyzers. The polarization direction of the polarizer is the same as the polarization direction of femtosecond detecting pulse light, the positive heterodyne angle ranging from 2 degrees to 5 degrees is formed by the polarization direction of one analyzer and the polarization vertical direction of the polarizer, and the negative heterodyne angle ranging from 2 degrees to 5 degrees is formed by the polarization direction of the other analyzer and the polarization vertical direction of the polarizer. A switching light path is provided with a half wave plate and an optical delay line. The femtosecond switching pulse light coincides with the femtosecond probe pulse light in the optical Kerr medium. A positive heterodyne single-pulse gating image and a negative heterodyne single-pulse gating image are obtained on the two single-pulse triggering CCDs respectively, subtraction is carried out on the two images to obtain a femtosecond differential optical Kerr gate single-pulse gating image of the target to be detected. The single-pulse imaging with the high signal to noise ratio is achieved, and the femtosecond differential optical Kerr gate and the imaging device and method based on the optical Kerr gate have the advantages that the time resolution, the image contrast and the system resolution are high.
