    Blind equalization system model is established with atmospheric turbulence time-varying channel. Under different scintillation distribution conditions, performances of two kinds of adaptive blind equalization algorithms are compared such as convergence, mean square error (MSE) and stability, and clustering in constellation of wireless optical subcarrier signal are analyzed. With the increasing of turbulence intensity, variable step-size constant modulus algorithm (CMA) algorithm based MSE has faster convergence, smaller MSE but poor stability, and scale factor must be decreased to ensure convergence compared with CMA algorithm. Meanwhile, compared with Gaussian channel, under the same signal-to-noise ratio, iterative step length factor and scale factor under the turbulence channel is smaller, but mean square error is bigger than in Gaussian channel. The simulation results show that two kinds of algorithms can effectively improve the convergence of constellation diagram, and have important significance in improving detection rate of constellation diagram.

    The hydrogen sensor probe is prepared by combining Pt-loaded WO3 coating with optimized synthesized process and enhanced temperature sensitivity fiber Bragg grating. In this way, the performance of the hydrogen sensor can be significantly improved. The experimental results show that Pt-loaded WO3 coating annealed under 315℃ for an hour has better sensitivity toward hydrogen when Pt∶W ratio is controlled at 1∶5. The temperature sensitivity of fiber Bragg grating which is enhanced by exerting axial prestress is 16.3 pm/℃, which is nearly twice of common fiber Bragg grating.

    A bidirectional quantum controlled teleportation scheme using the entanglement property of six-qubit maximally entangled state was presented. In the theoretical scheme, the six-qubit maximally entangled state was employed as the quantum channel linking three legitimate participants. Users were both sender and receiver. Alice transmitted an arbitrary single qubit state of qubit a to Bob and Bob transmitted an arbitrary single qubit state of qubit b to Alice via the control of the supervisor Charlie. Users carried out the Bell state measurements on their own particles and publicly announced their measurement results via a classical channel. Then they operated proper unitary transformation on their own particles, respectively. The bidirectional quantum controlled teleportation was successfully realized.

    A scheme for generating Cluster state with the quantum non-demolition polarization parity gate was presented based on weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity and linear-optics elements. The nonlinearity of cross-Kerr medium was introduced in the present scheme in order to achieve effectively the interaction between photons and achieve the desired photon entangled state. The success probability and the perfect fidelity for generating a cluster state could be enhanced due to introducing the nonlinearity of cross-Kerr and quantum non-demolition measurement on the coherence probe modes. The distinct feature of the present scheme is its preparation for a polarization four-photon cluster state with near unity success probability and near perfect fidelity. Furthermore, the cluster state of 3N+1 photons could be obtained with the help of linear optical elements based on the present scheme.

    The terahertz time domain spectroscopy technology is used to measure the terahertz spectral of three ellipse gold rings structure which deposited on the silicon substrate by the photo lithography technique and the thickness of gold film are about 100 nm. Then the physical mechanism of transmission enhancement through the structures is analyzed. The results show that the transmission coefficients of these structure samples are above 0.7 which suggests the sharp transmission enhancement in THz wave band. When the angle between the THz wave polarization direction and the long axis of elliptic ring is 90°, the resonance peak at 1.67 THz is result from the coupling between the short axis direction of electronic formed dipole oscillation and the incident THz wave. While the angle is 0°, the periodic array sample has not obvious resonance peak, the resonance peak of the patter array sample is obviously than the fractal array sample, the worse symmetry of the samples′ structure, the richer information of the transmission spectra. Moreover, the phase differences spectrums are also verify the existence of resonance enhanced transmission.

    In order to assess the performance of detection system for X-ray pulsar navigation, the expression of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the minimum detectable power are derived in the photon counting mode of the system. Experiment system to measure the SNR and the minimum detectable power is setup. The minimum detectable power is measured; the SNRs at different integration time, optical power and threshold voltage are calculated. The X-ray pulse profile is reconstructed by measuring the time of arrival (TOA) of the X-ray photons. Experimental results show that the SNR of the pulse profile is improved and the curve of the pulse profile tends to smooth with the increasing of optical power and the integration time; the SNR is 26.3 and the pulse profile is optimal when the threshold voltage is -150 mV; the minimum detectable power of the system is 3.5×10-16 W.

    Based on MATLAB software and iterative method, a kind of trial-error method for different natural environments (NET) is proposed. Solar module temperature, solar radiation and their effects on series resistance are taken into account in this model. Nine I-V curves are measured under natural environmental conditions to predict the model parameters under STC (i.e. open voltage Vocrefi, short current Iscrefi, maximum voltage Vmrefi, maximum current Imrefi, maximum power Pmrefi,i=1~7) . Increasing the number of the measured I-V curves may help for obtaining more accurate real value of Vocref, Iscref, Vmref, Imref, Pmref under STC. In order to test the validation of this model, the proposed model is used to evaluate the solar energy output of the module under a condition except for the nine I-V curves with nine different natural conditions. The deviation of the output of the calculated PmC from the measured output PmE under the investigated condition (G=647 W/m2, T=67.7℃) turns out to be 2.73%, which means that this kind of trial-error model can be used to design PV modules and predict the yield of the module under arbitrary natural environment.

    Different decay rates are observed by time-resolved pump-probe spectroscopy at different location at the injected electron spin packet, which indicate that spin diffusion exert influence on the measurement of the time constant of electron spin relaxation. The kinetic equation of spin transport is solved. The solution shows that spin diffusion influence electron spin relaxation time by two factors with . One factor relates to the distance between the center of pump spot and the center of probing spot, the other relates to pump spot size. Two conditions under which one may neglect the influence of diffusion are proposed: 1) the center of pump spot and the center of probing spot overlap; 2) pump spot size is large enough. Results show that the more the center of pump spot close to the center of probing spot and the larger pump spot size is, the less spin diffusion influence the measurement of electron spin relaxation time.

    Using a heated shock tube and an intensified spectroscopic detector CCD, transient emission spectra of n-dodecane in the combustion reaction were measured in the range of 200~900 nm. Experiments were conducted at pressure of 4.0 atm, temperatures of (1 200~1 300) K, equivalence ratios of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0. Results show that the main emission bands are attributed to OH, CH and C2 radicals produced during the combustion process. In the different equivalence ratios, the emission intensities of OH(306.4 nm)/CH(431.4 nm)/C2(516.4 nm) are significantly different in the combustion process, which indicates that fuel-lean situation is good for generation of OH radicals, and fuel-rich situation is good for C2. Different diluent gases lead to different combustion temperatures when the fuel burns, which causes the different patterns of the emission spectra of the fuel. The variation of OH, CH and C2 radicals produced in the combustion of n-dodecane are shown clearly by the time-resolved spectrum obtained. This research is helpful for understanding the properties and validating the mechanism of n-dodecane combustion reaction.

    In order to realize the specific spectral response of the detector, full-color filter method can be used to calculate the match plan of color filter. During the calulation, normal spectral transmittance of the filter often be employed as the calculation basis. In many practical applications, obliquely incident light will lead the disagreement between calculated result and the actual result.In this paper, the caculation method of diffuse incident spectral transmittance about the cylindrical color filter is analyzed; a correcting model which can derive the diffuse incident spectral transmittance from normally incident spectral transmittance is proposed; a experiment system is designed for diffuse incident spectral transmittance measurment based on double integrating sphere. A set of experiments are employed to evaluate performance of the correcting model. The measurement results show that the correcting model can effectivlly derive the diffuse incident spectral transmittance from normally incident spectral transmittance with obviously lower match error. The agreement between actual measurement result and caculated result is observably improved by applying the correcting model to full-color filter method.

    Based on the generalized Huygens-Fresnel diffraction principle and the quadratic approximation of Rytov′phase structure function, the analytical expression for the cross-spectral density matrix of the electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beams propagating through turbulent atmosphere is derived. The influence of the turbulent on polarization properties of the elliptically polarized electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beams in propagation are studied in this paper. In addition, the polarization properties of an elliptically polarized electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beam and a partially polarized electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beam are contrasted and analyzed. The results show that compared with the changes in the state of polarization of partially polarized electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beams, the elliptically polarized electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beams have the advantage of the less influence of turbulence strength. Moreover, the variations of the spectral degree of polarization of the elliptically polarized electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beams propagating through turbulence atmospheric are smaller than the partially polarized electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beams. But the variations of the orientation angle and the degree of ellipticity of the elliptically polarized electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beams propagating are larger than the partially polarized electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model beams.

    Based on the structure of the prism, the cut angle of Wollaston-type parallel-splitting polarizing prism is derived by using refraction law. The intensity transmittance, the splitting ratio and the parallel degree of the two output beams are deduced by using Fresnel formula and intensity transmittance theory of thin film. The variation relationships of law of intensity transmittance, splitting ratio and the parallel degree of the two output beams with incidence angle or incident wavelength are simulated under the Matlab environment. Experimental results of the intensity transmittance and the parallel degree varying with incident angle are obtained. The parallel degree is in good coincidence with the theoretical one and the law of intensity transmittance agrees with the theoretical one. Both theoretical and experimental results show that the intensity transmittance and the intensity splitting ratio of the Wollaston-type parallel-splitting polarizing prism fluctuate slightly with the incident angle and the incident wavelength. The included angle of the two beams is not more than 0.42 and maintains a good parallelism when the incident angle is in the range of (-3~3)° or the wavelength in range of 400~1 100 nm.

    A new method for the discrimination of adulterated milk based on two-dimensional(2D) correlation infrared spectroscopy and least square support vector machines (LS-SVM) was proposed. 48 pure milk samples were collected and 16 urea-tainted milk (0.01~0.3 g/L), 16 melamine-tainted milk (0.01~0.3 g/L), 16 tetracycline-tainted milk (0.01~0.3 g/L) were prepared. Based on the characteristics of 2D correlation infrared spectra of pure milk and adulterated milk, 6 apparent statistic parameters of all samples were extracted and calculated. These 6 parameters were used as input for LS-SVM to build discriminant model of adulterated milk and pure milk. The recognition rate of unknown samples was 90.6%.
