The oxygen A-band passive ranging has become one of the most active research topics in the area of mono-station passive distance estimation. However, the maximum estimating distance with acceptable errors is limited by the saturated zone in oxygen absorption curve. Calculation of the spectral transmittance with Modtran at 1 cm–1 resolution is performed, and through data modeling, a passive ranging formula of zenith angle and average absorption is obtained. This formula avoids saturated zone in the oxygen absorption curve, it makes the effective distance estimation range up to 50 km. In addition, the formula is not sensitive to absorption measurement error. For example, a zero-altitude sensor with a minimum detectable absorbance of Aˉ= 10-2 yields an approximate range error of not exceeding 50 m. The conclusion is expected to break through current situation of passive ranging based on oxygen absorption at short-range, and promote its practical application.

    In order to restrict the deformable mirror to form the tip/tilt and piston aberration in close-loop adaptive optics(AO) system,the dynamic characteristic and the correction error of the system using least square algorithm by adding limitative aberration vector are analyzed, and the simulation result shows that the algorithm not only can not restrict the limitative aberration vector exactly,but also degrade the correction performance. Project-constraint algorithm to restrict the deformable mirror to form tip/tilt and piston aberration via aberration decouple and imposing limitative vector on control voltage is proposed. Simulation correction result for first 36-order aberration indicates only 0.02 pixels offset of far field is generated by deformable mirror via project-constraint algorithm, while 9.3 pixels offset using least square algorithm by adding limitative aberration vector, and higher Strehl ratio is achieved via project-constraint algorithm when correct for first 36-order Zernik mode aberration. The result shows that project-constraint algorithm can restrict effectively,and have better correction performance.

    Cavities initially in weak coherent states are considered. The entanglement tensor approach is used to quantify the degree of entanglement. The tripartite entanglement dynamics of the system comprising three twolevel atoms resonantly interacting with three cavities coupled by two optical fibers is studied. The influence of cavity-fiber coupling constant on the tripartite entanglement among atoms and the influence of intensity of the cavity field on that are discussed. The tripartite entanglement among atoms is weakened with coupling constant between cavity and fiber increasing. On the other hand, it is strengthened with intensity of the cavity field increasing.

    Limited by view field angle, heterodyne system composed of single point detector cannot receive signal beams power adequately. The heterodyne system in which the single point detector is replaced by array detector can enhance the received amount of signal power through enlarging view field angle. Taking into account the thermal noise and saturation effects, signal-noise ratio(SNR) of heterodyne system with array detector is researched. Results show that compared with single point detection system, it will gain a higher SNR. However, it is pointed out, when the number of the units in array increases to a certain number, SNR cannot attain more improvement because of the thermal noise. For the reason that the signal output of system is the sum of output of all detector units, it is impossible to realize equiphase superposition. Impact of superposition in non- equiphase on system is also investigated by calculation simulation, and results show that the impact can be controlled effectively in the hardware design.

    Influence of material parameters on quantum efficiency of In0.53Ga0.47As photodetector is presented. The results show that the quantum efficiency mainly depends on the direction of incident light, the carrier concentrations of P-region and N-region, and the surface recombination velocities and the thickness of each region. When light is injected from P-side, the surface recombination velocity, carrier concentration and thickness of P-region have significant impact on the quantum efficiency. The material parameters of N-region have slight impact on quantum efficiency. Under condition of high carrier concentration (n>1017 cm-3), the surface recombination velocity and thickness are major factors. When light is injected from N-side, the surface recombination velocity of N-region is the major factor of quantum efficiency, if the carrier concentration is less than 1017 cm-3; the material thickness is the major factor of quantum efficiency, if the carrier concentration is more than 10cm16 cm-3.

    Three- dimensional X- ray diffraction (3DXRD) microscopy is a fast and nondestructive structural characterization technique aimed at studies of the spatial distribution of grains (subgrains) within millimetre-sized polycrystalline specimens. The 3DXRD method is successfully established on BL13W1 imaging beam line at Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility. Several influential factors are studied during the process of data analysis.The accuracy of peak searching is improved effectively by using median filter and image enhancement. More accurate alignment can be achieved by the combination of Debye- Scherrer coarse alignment and the iteration of figure-ofmerit fine alignment. Further operation of parallel computation increases the efficiency of alignment by 4.5 times. The results show that 3DXRD can obtain both far-field and near-field diffraction information simultaneously, deriving grain information such as grain size, center-of-mass position, crystallographic orientation and the degree of grain deformation.

    The effect of mid-infrared supercontinnum generation in ZBLAN fibers is numerically investigated. Based on the finite element method, the influences of macroscopic bending on confinement loss, dispersion and nonlinearity of ZBLAN fibers with different numerical apertures are analyzed, and the bending cut- off wavelength of ZBLAN fibers is figured out. The evolution of mid- infrared supercontinuum generation in ZBLAN fibers is simulated by using the general nonlinear Schr?dinger’s equation. The results indicate that the drastic dropping of nonlinear coefficient in mid- infrared wavelength region suppresses the spectral broaden ? ing of ZBLAN fibers with low numerical aperture when no bending is applied. In the presence of bending, when the central frequency of the soliton approaches the boundary of bending-induced loss region, the soliton selffrequency shift effect is suppressed and the spectral broadening phenomenon is radicated as well.

    A refractive index and temperature sensor is proposed based on tapered triple cladding quartz specialty fiber (TTCQSF). The SMF-TTCQSF-SMF structure is fabricated by drawing a section of fused TCQSF which is spliced in the both ends with two single mode fibers (SMFs). Then an in-fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) is achieved. The optical path difference between the fiber core mode and cladding mode of TTCQSF can vary with the changes of the external environment. And it causes the change of the sensor interference spectrum. Monitoring the variation of the transmission spectrum can determine the ambient physical parameters. The sensing performances of refractive index and temperature of the sensor are tested, respectively. The experimental results show that the transmission spectra of the sensor have red shift when the refractive index increases in the range from 1.3350 to 1.3466 and have blue shift when the temperature increases in the range from 25.7 ℃ to 94.9 ℃ . The refractive index sensitivity is 1673.94 nm/RIU and the temperature sensitivity is -0.061 nm/℃, where RIU is refractive index unit. Both of them have good linearities. The sensor has the advantages of easy manufacturing and high sensitivity. So it has a good application prospect in the fields of refractive index and temperature measurement, such as biochemistry and industrial production.

Furthermore, a method based on Monte Carlo trials is presented to analyze the accuracy of compensators. Using this method, the accuracy of compensators is obtained.

The calculated results of the geometrical structure show that with the Pb doping consistence increase, the lattice constants change, the volume of lattice reduces, the energy of doping system decreases thereby making the structure more stable. Electronic structure calculation indicates that Fermi energy level enter into the conduction band, the doping system are high doped. Meanwhile in the doping system, the optical band gap increases, the electron effective mass decreases, the conductivity increases. Optical properties calculation indicates that the absorption spectrum of the doping system is blue-shifted, indicates that Pb doping makes the optical band gap of InI system increase. It shows that these results provide theoretical guidance for the experimental study of optical and electrical properties of doped InI material.

The effect of BaF2 on the density, optical properties and scintillation properties are studied. Luminescence intensity of scintillation glasses and BGO crystal excited by ultraviolet (UV) and X- ray are compared. The result shows that the density can be increased by BaF2. The more the BaF2 concentration is, the higher the density is. BaF2 can enhance the UV- excited luminescence and X- ray excited luminescence. The optimum mole fraction of BaF2 is 15%. Due to charge transferring quenching and concentration quenching of Gd3+ , the UV-excited luminescence and X-ray excited luminescence decrease with the increase of Gd2O3 concentration. The integrated light emission intensity of these glass samples excited by X-ray decreases from 143% of BGO to 19% of BGO and decay time reduces from 46.5 ns to 30.5 ns.

Expansion coefficients for nanogold film in one-beam chiral experimental setup are not unique for the measurement of p-polarized initial beam and p±s-polarized secondharmonic beam, and they are unique for s- or (p + s)- polarized initial beam; but the uniqueness of expansion coefficients in two-beam geometry is without the limitation of the initial beam polarizations. The obtained results also show that one-beam technique only determines these contributions related to the effective electric-dipolar effect arising from the broken symmetry at the surface of an isotropic gold film, but bulk multipolar (magnetic dipole and electric quadruple effects) contributions of nanogold can be completely separated from its surface second-order nonlinear optical response in the two-beam setup, and all the non-vanishing tensor components obtained in both experimental geometries are very close in value and phase, and when only considering the surface electric-dipole effect of nanogold, the quality of its tensor components can also be checked by two-beam technique. So two-beam technique has more advantages than one-beam technique in the characterization of the nonlinearity of nanogold, and this conclusion can be applied to thin films /bulk materials with high structural symmetry.

    A universal simulation method for 3- dimensional electro- optic device is proposed. This method combines the electro-optic wave coupling theory with finite-element method for electric field analysis. By solving Jones- matrix of electro- optic device, electro- optic modulation for arbitrary light propagating direction and arbitrary electric field direction can be computed. This method is elaborated by taking the transverse-modulated Bi4Ge3O12(BGO) optical voltage sensor(OVS) for instance. The effect of inhomogeneous electric field and light beam shift on measurement accuracy is discussed. The maximum permitted beam shift for different accuracy grade is given. The method provides references for designing and evaluating optical voltage sensor and other electro-optic devices.

    Based on the scalar diffraction theory, the intensity distribution of accelerating quad Airy beams(AQABs) at different positions is numerically simulated.On the basis of it, through the research of the Poynting vector of AQABs, the local energy flow of electromagnetic fields of AQABs is described and it also provides intrinsic mechanism as to how AQABs generate and accelerate in free space. Further study of its angular momentum shows that AQABs are not a simple superposition of four classical Airy beams but an organical entity whose four parts of Airy beams have completely different optical properties. The research results reveal the intrinsic optical nature and transmission characteristics of AQABs.

    By the use of multi-pinhole random screens, the intensity and phase distributions of speckle fields are analyzed. It is found that the distribution of phase vortices shows local similarity and the cluster phenomena appearing in local regions. There are many independent units composed by 2, 4 and 6 positive and negative phase vortices. These new phenomena are different from those generated by a single square aperture random screen. The density of phase vortices becomes larger with the increase of the distance between pinholes and the number of pinholes.

    The preparation of decoy state in the quantum key distribution process is easy to introduce some extra information (frequency, pulse width, etc.), and the eavesdropper can use these information to distinguish signal state from decoy state. Therefore, this article proposes passive measurement device independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) based on parametric down conversion source (PDCS) and decoy state plan, and analyzes the key generation rate, single photon counting rate, bit error rate and the secure key transmission distance. The simulation results show that the maximum secure distance of passive MDI-QKD based on PDCS is about 285 km, which is much longer than MDI-QKD based on modified weak coherent source and is close to active MDI-QKD, and overcomes the imperfection of active decoy state plan that may introduce the extra information.

    Because of the nonlinear response of FY-3C MERSI reflective bands , traditional calibration based on two-points is inapplicable. An integrated method for on-obit wide dynamic vicarious calibration is developed to resolve this problem. By combining various vicarious calibration methods which are independent on the ground synchronous measurement, and using the multi-scale reflectance characteristics of every program’s calibration sample, the integrated method can achieve wide dynamic radiometric calibration. Calibration samples from each program are integrated equally and weightedly by subsection-average method, and calibration coefficients are calculated based on integrated samples using weighted fitting regression. The prelaunch quadratic term of calibration experiment analysis is used to perform nonlinear correction, calibration slope and intercept are evaluated on-orbit. Anlysis and verification results show that sample distribution of each vicarious program shows well consistency and the correlation of integrated samples can reach 0.99. Regression residual of comprehensive calibration results is less than 1% for the medium to high dynamic with reflectance greater than 10%. The relative difference between the high-end calibration results with cross calivration based on deep convective clouds (DCC) test sample is less than 1.5%and Dunhuang simultaneous observation test results show that the medium accuracy is better than 3%. Because of the responsiveness to low-light radiance of MERSI shows large degradation, nonlinear coefficients acquired form prelaunch outside calibration experiment are inapplicable, and calibration results show over estimated at the low target reflectance. The results can be applied to all reflection channels of FY-3C MERSI, which can reduce the uncertainty of the two-points calibration and the influence of nonlinearity.

The high resolution SAL imaging is realized utilizing an equivalent transmitting/receiving aperture of 0.5 mm×0.5 mm,and the high resolution images with picturesque high quality are generated at target distance of 12.9 m. The azimuth resolution synthetic aperture of the SAL images is over 100 times better than the real aperture diffraction limited resolution. The range compressed images of cooperative target and diffusive target, azimuth focused images and phase gradient autofocus (PGA) processed images are given in detail. Experimental figures display a clear SAL image formation process with the typical focused images of every processing step. Experimental results show that PGA has very robust focusing ability in SAL image processing, multiple iterations can greatly improve the imaging quality.

    A new Rayleigh approximation for the scattering of electromagnetic wave by spherical sand with non-uniformly distributing charge is proposed, and some numerical simulation results on the differential scat? tering cross section (DSCS) and the scattering efficiency are discussed. The results show that, the DSCS pres? ents an obviously spatial distribution while the charge is non- uniformly distributing on particles, but it shows an isotropic scattering property while the charge uniformly distributes on the sand. In addition, for a given charge density, the scattering efficiency for the former is much smaller than the one when the charge uniformly distributes on sand, but in some charged angle the law becomes contrary to the former law. These results illus? trate that it is needed to consider the effect of the surface charge and its distribution form while using the mi? crowave radar to monitor the dust storms.

    With respect to the shortcomings of traditional rice seed germination rate detection such as more time consumption, and the problems of near infrared spectroscopy that it is easily influenced by natural color and water content of rice seeds, a method based on continuous polarization spectroscopy and inlaid grey neural network to achieve rapid and nondestructive prediction of rice seed germination rate is proposed. The obtained continuous polarization spectra are de-noised by the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and wavelet packet transform, and EMD is selected according to the de-noising effect. The characteristics of de-noised continuous polarization spectra are extracted by the principal component analysis (PCA) and four modeling methods are used to build rice seed germination rate prediction models including partial least squares regression (PLSR), back propagation neural network (BPNN), radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) and inlaid grey neural network (IGNN). The modeling results show that the IGNN model at 10 min testing time is the most accurate, with the correlation coefficient of prediction set as 0.985 and mean square error of prediction set as 0.771. The research results show that the method based on continuous polarization spectroscopy and inlaid grey neural network can achieve rapid and nondestructive prediction of rice seed germination rate and has high prediction accuracy.

    Space-born differential optical absorption spectrometer is an imaging spectrometer with wide field of view and high resolution. Spectral curve and stripe noise interferes the image quality, influences the inversion accuracy, and thus needs to be corrected on orbit. A study on full field-of-view spectral image correction method is completed on ground. The full field-of-view spectral image is obtained by using image combination, and then the spectral image is analyzed in detail. Based on the spectrometer characteristics, a spectral curve and stripe noise correction method is proposed. The correction results show that the spectral curve, cross stripe and inclined stripe are well corrected, demonstrating the feasibility of the proposed correction method and providing the basis for onorbit spectral image correction.

    In order to investigate the modulation of the surface oxide layer on the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) properties of the metal thin films, Al metallic films are deposited with different thicknesses by DC magnetron sputtering by controlling the deposition power and deposition time. The as-deposited films are annealed to fabricate Al/Al2O3 composite films by regulating the annealing time and temperature. The structures, morphology and SPR properties of the Al/Al2O3 composite films are investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscope (AFM), spectro photometer and Raman spectroscopy, respectively. XRD results show that the phases of Al/Al2O3 composite films vary from amorphous to polycrystalline with a preferential orientation with the thickness increasing. Optical absorption spectra show that two peaks which correspond to the SPR absorption peak near 220 nm and the intrinsic absorption peak metal aluminum film near 830 nm. Raman spectrum reveals that the surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) intensity of Rhodamine B increases with the increasing thickness up to 14.5 nm and then decreases with the thickness further increasing. The results demonstrate that Al2O3 film has the capability to modulate the SPR with good properties.
