.
A maximum of 5.5 W of cw TEM00 mode output at 532nm has been obtained by intracavity frequency doubling with a KTP crystal in an Nd: YVO4 laser doubly-pumped with 20 W diode pumping power. The optical-optical conversion efficiency is 27.5%. The influence of thermal lensing at high pumping power in the end-pumped Nd:YVO4 laser is discussed. The Nd:YVO4 laser has a good power stability of 1.6%.

420-422
.
Based on the interference between two two-photon processes, we reported a four-level ultrafast modulation spectroscopy in Na vapor, where 3S, 3P, 5S, and 4D formed a four-level system. We studied the temporal behavior of the four-wave mixing signal intensity and obtained signal modulation with period 25fs, corresponding to the splitting between 5s and 4D. This technique can achieve Doppler-free precision in the measurement of the energy level splitting between two excited states which are dipolar forbidden from the ground state.

Observation of Drift Wave Propagation as a Source of Tokamak Edge Turbulence

.
Core and edge turbulences were measured by Langmuir probe arrays in the KT-5C tokamak plasma. The radial wavenumber spectra show a quasimode like structure which results in a net radial outward propagation of the turbulent fluctuations. The measured fluctuation levels and wave action fluxes are in good agreement with model predictions by Mattor et al., suggesting that drift wave propagation could be a source of edge turbulence.

.
Lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) experiments have been done on the superconducting Tokamak HT-7 by using a new developed long pulse megawatt lower hybrid wave system. An LHCD efficiency of 0.5 x 1019A.m-2/W in a pulse length of several hundreds of milliseconds has been achieved. After boronization of the tokamak vacuum vessel, considerable improvements of plasma energy confinement and particle confinement during LHCD phase have been achieved by adjusting wave spectra. An energy transfer from the lower hybrid wave to plasma bulk electrons has been demonstrated experimentally. A computer simulation of the LHCD experiments by using a ray tracing code combined with a two dimensional Fokker-Planck code is in good accordance with experimental measurements and suggests an important role of plasma current profile.

Temperature Dependence of the Luminescence Decay Time of a PbWO4 Scintillator
SHI Chao-shu, DENG Jie, HAN Zheng-fu, XIE Zhi-jian, LIAO Jing-ying, G. Zimmerer, J. Beker, M. Kamada, M. Runne, A. Schrö, der
Chin. Phys. Lett. 1998, 15 (6):
455-456
.
Experimental results are given for the temperature dependence of the decay time of the emission at 430nm from PbWO4 crystal under vacuum-ultraviolet (82nm) photon excitation in the temperature range of 80-300K. The structures in the curve are interpreted for the first time by studying the thermoluminescence of PbWO4, which originates from the traps in the crystal.
