Dazzling effect of repetitive short pulse laser on TDI CCD camera

摘要

A dazzling experiment was performed on a 64-stage TDI CCD camera using a 20 Hz repetition frequency picoseconds pulse laser, during which we found a new dazzling effect in which the fringes appeared in the video of the camera beside the saturation spot induced by the laser. We considered it to be the scattered light of the repetition frequency laser pulse to have induced the phenomenon. Width and visibility of the fringes recorded the information of the scattered light, such as repetitive frequency, pulse width and intensity distribution. With the assumption that the laser pulse width is less than one stage integral time of TDI CCD, width expressions for the fringes and space between the fringes were given using the repetitive frequency of laser pulse, row output frequency and integral stage number of the TDI CCD camera.
