A novel spectra-edge-matching approach is proposed for the quantitative analysis of the nonlinear fluorescence spectra of the air impurities excited by a femtosecond laser.The fluorescence spectra are first denoised and compressed,both by wavelet transform,and several peak groups are then picked from each spectrum according to a threshold of intensity and are used to extract the spectral features through principal component analysis.It is indicated that the first two principle components actually cover up to 98% of the total information and are sufficient for the final concentration analysis.The analysis reveals a monotone relationship between the spectra intensity and the concentration of the air impurities,suggesting that the femtosecond laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy along with the proposed spectra analysis method can become a powerful tool for monitoring environmental pollutants.

Slowing down velocity and controlling time delay of optical pulses in fiber have many potential applications in optical com-munication systems,and a number of theoretical and experimental studies have been done.In this paper,the transmission spectrum and reflective spectrum of active fiber Bragg grating(FBG)couplers are studied,and the analytic expressions of dispersion and time delay are obtained.By changing the detuning and gain coefficient,different dispersions and time delays in active fiber Bragg grating coupler are obtained.The results show that different detunings and gain coefficients can result in various time delays,and thus tunable time delay could be achieved by changing signal frequency or gain coefficient.
