    A measurement method of diffraction efficiency of dot-matrix holography was proposed and an optical system was built. The first order (positive and negative) diffractive beams were separated from the zero and second ones skillfully by placing a plane reflect mirror within the system optical path to make a photodetector receive the first order (positive and negative) diffractive beams only. The direction variation of interference fringe cannot affect the experiment value. A half-wave plate was placed behind the laser and the power of the reflected beams and diffractive beams were received by two same photodetectors. At last the diffraction efficiency of eight different holographic security identifiers were calculated.

    According to Faraday effect and lock-in amplification principle, the magneto-optical modulation of polarized light through an optical material occurs after deflection. The output light contains a fundamental signal and a frequency-doubled signal whose frequencies are equal and doubled to modulation frequency respectively. Based on the analyses of amplitudes of fundamental and frequency-doubled signals, we put forward an algorithm for measuring the rotation angle. According to the relation between optical rotation angle and magnetic declination, we put forward a method to calibrate the magnetic declination in the Faraday magneto-optic effect. The feasibility of such measurement approach has been verified by our experiments.

    It is very difficult to measure the full flow field because of narrow gallery and complex hydraulic flow pattern on the corner in the reciprocating baffled flocculation tank. The particle image velocimetry and middle field tests and numerical simulation are used. This paper uses an advanced particle image velocimetry technology, and develops a two-dimensional numerical model. It can be seen clearly that the improvement of hydraulic conditions of flow field in the different boundary conditions through the flow particle image. By means of the middle field tests, coagulation effect has improved significantly in the improved flocculation, and the addition of tiny eddies can achieve effective flocculation. The comparison shows that the numerical results are in agreement with the experiment results of the flocculation tank.

    A method based on laser difference detection for measuring suspended matter concentration is introduced in the paper. It can be used for the concentration measurement of suspended particles such as smog, dust and other aerosols. Based on the light scattering effect of the suspended particles, real-time monitoring of the suspended particles without changing their properties can be achieved. By means of a direct amplification of the differential signal of the test and reference light, fluctuations of the laser energy can be reduced. The measuring principles and methods are presented in detail. Through the study of the light decaying mechanism during laser propagating in the suspended particles, the relationship between the suspended matter concentration and light intensity attenuation is deduced. We also build a laser differential detection system for the measurement of the suspended matter concentration. By measuring the smog of known concentration, practical feasibility of the measurement method is verified.

    In order to detect the resolution of the concave gratings, it needs to build a precise detection system. Based on the theoretical analysis of the system of the bandwidth of light source, the slit width and the pixel size of the detector, combining with the aberration analysis of concave gratings, a method for the resolution detection system is proposed. According to the standard method in JB/T 8239.2-95 which is named The technical conditions for diffraction grating, the system analyzes the above three factors quantitatively and puts forward a reasonable calculation method. Then it can obtain the practical value of concave grating resolution in the detection system. By experimental verification, the method can distinguish the difference between the test results and the theoretical analysis results from 0.001 0 nm to 0.003 7 nm.

    In the Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS), obtaining the optical path difference of each sampling points accurately is the key of data processing. The velocity fluctuation of moving mirror will cause equal-time sampling error, and traditional equal optical path difference sampling method can not be used for visible wavelengths. The influence of speed fluctuation is analyzed and a method to calculate the optical path difference of each sampling points based on fitting algorithm is developed. The method is verified by processing the interference signal of visible light with large velocity fluctuation. The experimental results verify its correctness and effectiveness. This method can also be used in any kind of Fourier transform spectrometer.

    As for the immaturity of the weld technology applied to the high volume fraction SiC/Al composites, the stability of the space remote sensor skeleton construction was studied. According to the findings of the tolerance analysis of optical deign and structures, the verification of measuring angle and linearity using three-coordinate measuring machine and theodolite was proposed. The feasibility of cementing technology was demonstrated. By the thermal cycling test of frame, the angel and the distance of measuring point were calibrate. The calibrated data was compared. The results show that the torsional angel of the frame is 2.1″ in pitch, 2.3″ in azimuth, and the changes of the distance in the three directions are 0.034 mm, 0.044 mm and 0.034 mm, which can meet the technical requirements of torsional angel smaller than 5″ and the distance tolerance of ±0.05 mm.

    LED is widely used in different lighting environment instead of traditional lighting source as its power becoming higher and higher. LED lens are always needed to make rectangular spot to avoid waste of flux in some illumination design of indoor and road conditions. In this design, total internal reflection(TIR) lens and micro-lens array are integrated by Light Tools. The transmission and the total reflection surface of TIR lens are all set up to quadric for optimization. And the ratio of length and width of a single micro-lens is set to 1∶1, 3∶2 and 4∶3. The size of the micro-lens and spherical curvature are also variable for further optimization. Finally, a uniform rectangular spot appears on the detector, and the ratio of the length and width is the same as the ratio of micro-lens which can meet illumination design of different condition.

    In the printing industry, printing dot parameters are measured by means of obtaining the values of area, distance,angle of printing dots to control printing quality. Because the traditional measuring instrument in the measuring network area is based on optical measurement and indirect conversion of light into density value, there is measurement error and calculation error which affect the printing quality. In this paper, a printing measuring instrument is designed on the basis of digital image processing whose measuring is direct. Its measuring accuracy is higher and it is more helpful for controlling printing quality.

    The dynamical diffraction theory is employed to analyze the diffraction efficiency and the resolution ratio of hard X-ray waves inside the multilayer Laue lenses. The multilayer Laue lenses are made from NbC/Si with a zone thickness of 40 μm. There are two ways to improve the resolution ratio. The first way is to reduce the outmost zone thickness and use wedge structure, but it is hard to form the structure. The second way is to use the high order. This way can improve the resolution ratio without changing the structure. The results show that a focused beam size of 6.72 nm and a mean efficiency of 49.31% can be obtained by the -3rd order of multilayer Laue lens with 10 keV X-ray.

    The paper presents and experimentally verifies a new design method of shortening the optical waveguide splitter.Based on the use of BPM simulation, we summarize the relationship between unit central angle and the curvature radius of the bend loss, establishing the monotone arc connection model about all levels between the Y branch of the optical waveguide splitter. We determine the calculation formula about the optical waveguide splitter length, total bending loss, single bend loss and uniformity. In consideration of the whole length of waveguide, bending loss and uniformity, we introduce the design technique of genetic algorithm for global optimization, designing the reasonable and feasible evaluation function. We choose the initial numerical range of the genetic function, and study the genetic algorithm by using MATLAB. Through the verified design on an 1×8 quartz optical waveguide splitter, we find that insertion loss and uniformity index are equivalent,and the effective length is shorten 3.5 mm or more, compared with the existing similar products.
