Changes in spectral properties of output light are analyzed from the angle of integrating sphere non-neutrality.Based on integrating-sphere theory,the relationship between non-neutrality of integrating-sphere spectral transmittance and that of spectral reflectance of inner coating is derived.It shows that non-neutrality of integrating spheres is usually greater than that of inner coatings,and integrating sphere non-neutrality increases with the rise of coating reflectance when coating non-neutrality remains unchanged.Then spectral distribution,chromaticity coordinates and color temperature of output light are measured under illumination of light source A and a Xenon lamp respectively.The measurement results indicate that effects of non-neutrality of barium sulfate and polytetrafluoroethylene integrating spheres on output spectrum are both the increase of chromaticity coordinates and decrease of color temperature.For the polytetrafluoroethylene integrating sphere,color temperature of output spectrum is reduced for about 20 K and 70 K respectively when incident light source is light source A and a Xenon lamp.While for the barium sulfate integrating sphere,color temperature is reduced for about 300 K and 1 000 K respectively,which implies more remarkable influence on output spectrum.

    Hyperspectral scattering is a promising technique for noninvasive measurement of apple mealiness. An uninformative variable elimination (UVE) coupled with locally linear embedding (LLE) algorithm was proposed for assessing apple mealiness. After the algorithm, the number of effective wavelengths decreased to 23.5% of full wavelengths of hyperspectral scattering images. LLE was utilized to reduce the dimensionality of images composed of effective wavelengths. Partial least squares discriminant analysis was applied to develop classification model. Compared with mean reflectance (75.8%) and UVE coupled with mean reflectance algorithm (77.4%), LLE and UVE coupled with LLE model yielded better results (79.0%). UVE coupled with LLE model with the presevation of classification accuracy only used 23.5% wavelength of LLE model. Therefore, it provides a useful algorithm for online classification and data saving.

    Arrayed waveguide grating (AWG)-type optical components are widely used in optical transmission system, and the low cost AWG chips are in more and more urgent need. Among all the methods for lowering the AWG cost, reducing the AWG chip size is one of the most effective methods. A novel compact AWG based on low refractive index contrast silica-on-silicon (SoS) technology was proposed. In this AWG, only the segments connected with the slab waveguides in the input and output waveguides are air trench (AT) waveguides. By using these AT segments, the distance between the adjacent output waveguides connected with the output slab was decreaced greatly, so the focuses of slab waveguides, and the number of arrayed waveguides were decreaced greatly. Thus, the size of AWG chip was decreased dramatically. The arrayed waveguides and the segments coupling to fibers in the input or output waveguides were all fabricated with low refractive index contrast waveguides, for the purpose to obtain low coupling losses with fibers and good performances as traditional SoS AWGs. The size of an AWG designed consisting 40 channels on 100 GHz ITU grid is only 23.88 mm×10.5 mm, which area is about 1/6 of a traditional AWG with the same function.

    Microring-resonator filters were fabricated based On Silicon on Insulator (SOI) nano-wire waveguide, adopting Electron-Beam photolithography (EBL) and Inductive-Coupled-Plasma (ICP) etching technology, etc. The cross-section size of the strip waveguides were (350~500 nm)×220 nm, respectively, and the bending radius of the microring was around 5 μm. The measured results show that performance of devices are much better with waveguide width 450 nm, the free spectral range (FSR) is 16.8 nm, and extinction ratio (ER) around the wavelength 1 550 nm is 22.1 dB. After thermally tuned, the tuning bandwidth reaches 4.8 nm, and the tuning efficient is 0.12 nm/℃. Meanwhile, multi-channel filters were fabricated and studied based on single-ring and double-ring. After experiments, some conclusions were drawn: crosstalk exists in the signal transmission in multi-channel filters, mainly among different transmission channels, and the crosstalk is fairly distinct when there are signals input to add ports.

    Dynamic formulas of acoustic frequency and diffraction efficiency are proposed. Distributions of diffraction efficiency of the acousto-optic cell at different driving frequencies are analyzed, and its approximate expression is also given. However, it is found that the non-reciprocal effect also appears at low frequency (e.g. 100 MHz), which usually occurs at above 1 GHz frequency. Through introducing scale factor δF/ΔF, the non-reciprocal effect experiment is carried out with the laser wavelengths of 532 nm and 632.8 nm in Tellurium dioxide crystals. The obtained results show that the total change in the diffraction bandwidth is 50% to 60%, which basically matches the calculated result. According to this result, the non-reciprocal effect can be applied in the development of directional couplers (optical router) and other optoelectronic devices.

    A theoretical investigation of the pulse trapping in a highly birefringent photonic crystal fiber was presented. The strict coupled nonlinear Schrdinger equations were numerically solved using a split-step Fourier algorithm. Different incidence conditions were discussed when the two pulses were polarized along the same polarization axes. The pump pulse in abnormal dispersion regime traped the signal pulse in the normal dispersion regime, and the signal pulse shifted to shorter wavelength with the pump pulse of the longer wavelength in order to keep the same group velocity. Different initial temporal separation between the pump pulse and the signal pulse leaded to different effect in the pulse trapping. As the input peak power of the pump pulse was increased, the red-shift of pump pulse was considerably enhanced with the simultaneous further blue-shift if the trapped pulse to satisfy the condition of group velocity matching. Pulse trapping was inconspicuous as the full width at half maximum of the pump pulse was increased. In order to realize pulse trapping, the wavelengths of the pump and signal pulses should be near the zero dispersion point and the discrepancy between two group velocities should be small.

    A scheme was proposed to construct bilinear and quadratic Hamiltonians for frequency up- and down-conversions in cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED). Generally, in nonlinear optics, the interaction that the energe swaps between different optic modes without atomic transition is named frequency conversion. The proposed scheme was based on the interactions of a single four-level atom simultaneously with two classical driving fields and a two-mode cavity field, which is in the domain of four-wave mixing . By initially preparing the atom in a suitable state, each pump light was resonant with its transition, and two quantum modes were large tune to the other two transition, respectively, In the strong laser regime, the atomic degrees of freedom could be decoupled from the cavity degrees of freedom and the frequency conversion could be realized for the cavity modes. Due to the different initial states and interactions between optic fields and atom, frequency up- and down-conversions arose, respectively. After the preparation of squeezed operation respect to Frequency down-conversion, a discussion on the feasibility of experiment was given and the theoretical value was obtained. The advantage of this proposal is to realize the transition using two cascade photons, which is dipole-forbidden in a cascade structure atom, with high efficiency. The proposal will be useful for optical quantum control and fundamental tests of quantum theory.

    Self-phase modulation phenomena was found in 5CB liquid crystal, which accounted for the far field diffraction ring phenomena induced by high power laser traversing thin liquid crystal cell. Experimental and numerical methods were employed to study the mechanism of the self-phase modulation in 5CB. Experimental results indicate that diffraction ring phenomena can be found when the incident laser intensity rise to 10 kW/cm2 and 60 W/cm2 for 532 nm and 1 064 nm laser separately, but will disappear when the effect of laser interaction with liquid crystal sustained hundreds of mili-second. Numerical results applying Kirhoff diffraction integral formula were in good agreement with experimental results. Based on thermal conductivity theory, the relationship of the third order nonlinearity with the incident laser spot and wavelength in 5CB liquid crystal was discussed qualitatively. It was indicated that thermal effects take the main role in the nonlinear self-phase modulation phenomena which is greatly associated with the absorption coefficient and the laser spot diameter.

    For optical feedback interferometry, a modulation and demodulation method based on phase-freezing technology was brought forward to increase the measurement resolution. And a displacement measurement system with phase modulator was designed. The phase of the outer cavity was modulated by the modulator, and interference signals that have fixed modulation phases were collected. Then displacement information of the target can be observed by demodulation and reconstruction. Signal modulation, sampling, reconstruction technology and error analysis were studied, and the feasibility of this method was verified by simulation. The results demonstrate that the accuracy can be up to λ/20 using five-point phase-freezing sampling. This method can enhance the accuracy of optical feedback interferometry, and process signals in real time. So it can be used in real time displacement measurement.

    Femtosecond-pulse generation relies on net negative intracavity group-delay dispersion.Solid-state gain media and other optical components always introduce a certain amount of frequency-dependant positive dispersion in the cavity,which must be balanced as well.Brewster-angled prism pairs were popular choices in the last years.However,in prism-pair-controlled lasers,higher-order dispersion of the prism pair will be introduced,which increases the sensitivity and affects the size and repetition rate of femtosecond-pulse solid-state laser oscillators of the pulse width to the cavity and prism alignment.Gires-Tournois mirrors may not introduce above defects and can exhibit high reflectivity and precise control of the frequency-dependent group delay over a large bandwidth.They have played and will continue to play an important role in ultrashort pulse laser systems.Basic structure、dispersion performance and principle of design of Gires-Tournois mirrors are discussed.The optimized multilayer mirror used in a Cr∶LiSAF laser is reported.This mirror exhibit high reflectance(>99.9%) and smooth group delay dispersion(-35±8 fs2) from 750 nm to 900 nm.Most group delay dispersion of a 3 mm Cr∶LiSAF crystal can be compensated by four bounces.

    The single hundred-picosecond pulse amplification (the repetition rate is 1 Hz) was studied experimently in the Ytterbium-doped double clad fiber amplifier. The characteristic of time-domain and frequency-domain pulse waveform influenced by the self phase modulation (SPM) effect was presented. In the experiment, the small mode area double clad fiber was adopted with core diameter 6.5 μm as the gain media. As the gain of the amplifier from the small-signal gain to the deeply saturated gain, the evolution of the spectrum broadening, the pulse waveform and intensity distribution because of the SPM effect were observed. Then to overcome the difficulty for measuring the single pulse spectrum, the Bragg fiber grating scanning was introduced to investigate the changing of spectrum broadening. The results indicate that different from the SPM effect in the passive fibers, as the increase of the pump power, due to the competition mechanism of the gain saturation and SPM in the hundred-picosecond pulse amplification, the spectrum exhibits asymmetric double-peak and the pulse intensity is shifting to short wavelength firstly and then to the long wavelength.

The experimental results showed that the arithmetic was adapted to diagnose laser-produced high temperature high-density plasmas.

    Optimization structure of cladding radius and grating periods of long-period fiber grating (LPFG) was proposed, in order to achieve a high sensitivity of sensing the refractive-index of the external medium. Based on the coupled-mode theory of the LPFG, a theoretical analyzation was carried out between the cladding radius and grating period, and surrounding refractive-index, respectively. Effects of the variation of the cladding radius and grating period on the refractive- index sensing were discussed. Both of these parameters were found to be equivalently important to control the refractive-index sensing. Optimizing parameters of the grating are Λ=380 μm and rcl=17 μm in order to achieve a good apply of the LPFG with resonance wavelength in the 1.55 μm common application region. Variation of external medium refractive-index from 1.26 to 1.38 was tested and the achieved refractive-index sensing sensitivity is 0.000 12. Optimization structure of the LPFG achieves a good result.

    Based on analysis of light intensity distribution over exit face, effects of direction angle of laser beam on exit optical field distribution were investigated during transmission process through optical fiber. A new influencing factor was proposed, which was a complement to the two proverbial factors-numerical aperture and core diameter of the optical fiber. Beams of laser diode were resolved into a large amount of ray during transmission process. On the condition of a constant entrance optical field distribution, influences of single beam and multi-beam direction angle and optical fiber length were analyzed by ray tracing method. Results indicate that, in optical fiber, deviation of a single beam direction angle can lead to extremum position excursion on the exit face, while with more beams, deviation of direction angle can bring about an obvious ring form light intensity distribution. It can be concluded that direction angle of a beam is an important factor which influences the light intensity distribution and extremum position over the exit face, and the length of optical fiber also takes effect.

    In the laser projection displays technology, The method by vibrating the fiber can effectively suppress the speckle and reduce the light loss. Generalized van Cittert - Zernike theorem was used in the theoretical analysis of speckle reduction in the laser projection display, where the vibrating fiber was used as speckle reduction approach. The results show that the speckle contrast depends on number of optical fiber model and the projection system pupil size. For the same size of the image plane, more models of multimode fibers should be collected and pupil diameter of projection system should be enlarged in order to reduce speckle contrast. In the projection system, the comparison experiment using two different multimode fibers were carried out and the results confirmed this conclusion qualitatively. This result provides a guidance for choosing the fiber production program and designing the illumination mode.

    Two-dimension and three-dimension topography of pulsed lasers ablation of tissues were scanned by means of optical coherent microscopy, in order to analyze the ablation characteristics of pulsed Erbium:YAG lasers for hard biological tissues. Experimental results indicate that under the same laser parameters, ablation efficiency for gall-stone is higher than that for urinary stone. The higher the intensities of pulsed lasers are, the higher the ablation efficiency will be for both gall-stone and urinary stone. The higher ablation efficiency mainly embodies that wider surface diameter, deeper height, and bigger volume for craters will be obtained. Measurements for stone craters using the optical coherent microscopy are higher by about one order than those using the optical coherent tomography. Optical coherent microscopy system can contribute to quantitatively measure hard tissues irradiated by pulsed lasers much better than optical coherent tomography system.

    Some single feature information or their effective combinations which fire flame behaves are extracted as the basis of image fire flame recogniton in common algorithms. And large number of training samples are needed for learning procedure and parameters optimization. Moreover the recognition rate depends on the selection of features. Considering the global feature of fire flame, an algorithm was proposed based on color model and sparse representation for fire detection. Firstly, the regions with fire-like colors were roughly separated by color modeling in the space of HIS. Secondly, sparse representation model was built, and then the codebook of flames and suspected objects were constructed using PCA. Finally, the classification of fire flames and disturbances was implemented by calculating the minimum approximation residual error between testing samples and training samples using l1-minimization. The experiment results show that the algorithm can effectively improve the classification precision and recognition speed, and also it achieves higher accuracy.

    A new stereo visual localization method was proposed based on generalized orthogonal iterative algorithm. Firstly, CensurE features and U-SURF descriptors were extracted, sub-pixel stereo matching were performed based on SAD method, and features between two consecutive image frames were matched using U-SURF descriptor. Then, 3D-3D motion estimation was carried out to obtain initial motion parameters in the framework of RANSAC. 3D-3D motion estimation could obtain the minimum error of Euclidean distance between 3D points. The 3D coordinates of feature points were greatly affected by noise, so the motion estimation error was large. In this paper, generalized orthogonal iterative algorithm was applied to visual stereo localization to obtain motion estimation parameters by minimising object-space collinearity error of points sensed by stereo cameras. The motion estimation error was greatly reduced because Euclidean distance error between 3D points was more affected by noise than collinearity error of points. Simulation experiment and outdoor intelligent vehicle experiment show that the proposed method can be run at real-time, and achieves a high accuracy and robustness, better than traditional methods.

    Maximum Average Correlation Height (MACH) algorithm was applied on JTC to achieve distortion target recognition to solve the problem of inaccurate recognition for distorted target (the targets rotated in plane or scale changed) in cluttered background with Joint Transform Correlator (JTC). First of all, three performance control parameters of MACH filter were optimized in frequency domain, and then the optimized MACH frequency domain filter was projected to object space; the MACH reference template could be obtained. As practical examples, the optical experiments on warship and car in clutter background were presented. The results show that when the control parameters of the filter are γ=1, α=0 and β=0.1, the obtained MACH reference template is clearest, the correlation peak of the target is sharpest and brightest. In this way, the obtained scale distortion tolerance on the JTC is 28%, and rotation distortion tolerance is 20°. For the target which exceeding the distortion tolerance range, the correlation peak is weaker and weaker, but some can still be recognized. In the field of distorted target detection, the improved MACH filter has a powerful advantage and a good application prospect.

    With linear optical components to manipulate quantum states of optical fields, the quantum entanglement control and quantum communication can be implemented remotely.By analyzing optical splitter and its use of coherent states, it was found that when the initial state was a direct product of two partially entangled coherent states; another two modes would collapse to a new entangled state using optical splitter and photon-detectors on two modes. Based on this feature, the scheme on entanglement concentration was presented. In this scheme, the two partially entangled coherent states were utilized as the quantum channel, when zero photon and odd photons were detected in two modes separately, and another two modes would collapse to the maximum entangled state, thereby completing the process of the entanglement concentration. It was proved that, no matter how small the initial entanglement is, to distill some maximally entangled states from partially entangled pure states is possible.

The field emission properties were tested by using a diode structure in a vacuum. The growth mechanism of the carbon films and field emission properties of the globe-like diamond microcrystalline aggregates were discussed. It was found that different carbon films prepared by deposition time greatly changes in morphology, and field emission results also change a lot. The decrease of field enhancement factor and the growth of conductive channel are the main reasons for deterioration of the field emission effect.

During alignment of sub-aperture stitching system, if the sub-aperture was tilted and shifted, the circle center of sub-aperture would be tilted and shifted consequently. The equivalent nodal point will shift would sub-apertures. The spot size variation due to sub-apertures image displacement was analyzed in detail. The effect of sub-aperture tilt and shift on image quality in stitching system was simplified with equivalent nodal point concept.

When Zn2+ concentration reaches to 7% (reaches threshold value), the optical damage resistance ability are two orders of magnitude higher than that of LiNbO3 crystals. The enhancement mechanism of optical damage resistance of highly doping zinc Mn:Fe: LiNbO3 crystals was researched. The bhase conjugate reflectivity decreases and phase conjugate response speed increases, with the increase of Zn2+ concentration. The phase conjugate mirror has eliminate optical wave phase distortion. The holographic associative storage experiment was carried out using Zn∶Mn∶Fe∶LiNbO3 crystals as storage medium. The working principle of holographic associative storage was discussed. Using 25% and 50% addressing, the intact storage image was received in output plane.

    The quality of reconstruction in phase-shifting digital holography was determined by the accuracy of phase shift. An approach to obtain accurate phase shift in two-step digital holography was proposed. This approach employed an ordinary open-loop controlled piezoelectric actuator, and a serial of phase shift holograms corrisponding to different phase shift angles would be obtained by means of changing the volgate exerted on the piezoelectric actuator continuously. Then the holograms could be used to reconstruct the object intensity on the CCD plane. The object intensity on the CCD plane that already recorded by CCD would be used as a criterion to evalutae the quality of the reconstuction. The correlation coefficients between the criterion and the same intensity reconstructed with different phase shift holograms were obtained. The correlation coefficient reached its maximum when the phase shift hologram is with the accurate phase shift angle. Simulation was carried out and thereafter the approach was employed in experiment. The quality of the reconstructed field by using the accurate value and the nominal value were compared. The feasibility of this method has been verified by both computer simulations and experiments.
