    A method of near-field trapping high and low refractive index Rayleigh particles was proposed using a binary phase Subwavelength Fresnel Zone Plate (SFZP) illuminated by the double-ring-shaped vortex beam. Based on the angular spectrum representation, the distribution of SFZP′s diffraction field was calculated. Bright and dark spots can be generated in the near field of the SFZP by changing the truncation parameter (β) and the vortex angle (δ) of the incident beam. Numerical results show that the SFZP can generate a subwavelength three-dimensional (3D) bright spot in the near-field region when β=1.09 and δ=0. The tiny bright spot can be used to stably trap a gold particle with radius 19 nm, whose refractive index is higher than that of the ambient medium. The axial and transverse trap distances are respective 0.4921λ and 0.2844λ. When β=1.45 and δ=0.414π, a 3D dark spot surrounded by a light shell can be formed in the near-field region. An air bubble with radius 30 nm is stably trapped at the center of this subwavelength dark spot. The refractive index of the air bubble is lower than the ambient medium. The axial and transverse trap distances are 0.62λ and 0.3081λ. The trap distance obtained under two conditions is less than that in the conventional far-field trap system. The single trap system can be used to accurately trap two types of Rayleigh particles with different refractive indices.

    The change rule of phase-modulation beat-frequency-signal following signal light frequency was analyzed theoretically. It is found that the frequency spectrum of phase-modulation beat-frequency-signal phase is composed of two monotone edges separated from each other in domain. The results indicate that the beat-frequency-signal phase can be used to measure Doppler shift, and its Doppler shift measurement range is two times of Fabry-Perot interferometer edge technique if outgoing laser work-point is locked using beat-frequency-signal amplitude. Theoretical analysis of beat-frequency-signal amplitude and phase extraction methods shows that the measurement method based on beat-frequency-signal phase does not need signal light energy detection, and has simpler structure and less one outside noise entering channel than Fabry-Perot interferometer edge technique. For quantitative research and parameters optimization of this Doppler shift measurement method, its measurement error formula was deduced by using the error combination principle and computer simulation. The experimental system is set up based on the measurement principle. The output light of frequency tunable fiber laser simulates Doppler frequency shift signal light to be measured. The measurement results of frequency-discrimination parameter and its error distribution curves are agreed with the theoretical results well.

    As the conventional angular measuring system which uses rotary encoders has the shortcomings of low resolution, large quantization noise and low angular velocity accuracy, a sensor fusion angle measurement method based on fiber optic gyroscope and rotary encoder was proposed. First, the encoder angle signal and the fiber optic gyro rate integration value were subtracted in a sliding window, and the rate drift of fiber optic gyroscope was estimated utilize least square method from the deviation signal. Secondly, the angle was estimated using the compensated angular velocity signal and the encoder signal through a certain combination algorithm. Finally, mathematical simulation and experimental verification were conducted for the proposed method. The results show that the simulation value and experimental value of angle measurement accuracy are improved from 1.2″ and 1.1″ to 0.17″ and 0.76″, respectively. The angular velocity measurement accuracy are also improved from 0.002°·s-1 to 0.001°·s-1.

    By using the linear approximation method, the intensity correlation function C(t) of loss model laser system with a biased amplitude modulation was calculated. The different forms (irregularly periodic increasing, decreasing and so on) were obtained in the evolution of the intensity correlation function C(t) with the time t. The results indicate that: in the case of a0=0.1, the flat irregularly periodic oscillation is shown; the period of irregularly periodic oscillation is adjusted by the low frequency Ω of modulation signal; the initial value and the period of C(t) can be changed by the intensity of quantum noise Q and the high frequency ω of carrier signal.

    The laser beam transmitting in the rain would be scattered and attenuated by the raindrops, so that the laser ranging system will be false alert and invalidation. Based on geometric optics theory, the raindrop backscattering model was founded, and the backscattering coefficients of different rainfall rates were calculated. Combined with engineering application, the signal-to-noise ratio at different rainfall rates and transmission distances were calculated, and the affect of raindrop backscattering to the system SNR is analyzed. The calculation results indicate that the system SNR is decreasing with the increasing of the rainfall rates and the attenuation rate is up to 11% in the heavy rain. And at the same rainfall rate, the attenuation rate of SNR is up to 46% or more when the distance increases from10 m to 15 m. The rainfall rate and distance are the important factors to affect the system signal-to-noise ratio, so the study on backscattering characteristics has important instruction for the design and optimization of high anti-interfering performance laser ranging system.

    The Segmented Telescope is the most effective way to build a giant telescope. 10 meter and larger telescopes are needed to be carried out further for our country. The analytical expression of the Point Spread Function (PSF) for 10 meter Segmented telescope was derived, based on optical diffraction theory. A numerical simulation model was established. The Gaps of Sub-segmented mirrors and Piston error, which affect far-field image quality, were analyzed. Both theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrated the following: PSF of Segmented telescope can be obtained by multiply coherence function(GF) of Sub-segmented mirrors′ center position with single Sub-segmented mirror′s PSF. Gaps between Sub-segmented mirrors could blur diffraction spot and decrease the peak energy. Piston error of the Sub-segmented mirror could affect the GF of the PSF seriously. Thereby, Strehl Ratio of the system could be decreased and the frequency of GF is not changed. Tip-Tilt error of Sub-segmented mirrors would cause frequency shift in every PSFs and the whole PSF could be affected and the Strehl Ratio would be decreased.

    To overcome the shortness of traditional algorithms relying on the point source assumption,a freeform surface optimization method for the extended source was proposed based on the genetic algorithm.The optimal objects involve the radiation distribution function,the offset of origin and the size factor of receiver about the virtual point source.For each individual the reflector can be calculated numerically by solving the partial differential equations established according to the energy conservation law and Snell′s law corresponding to the set of virtual parameters.The individual fitness concerning the uniformity of the object region and the transmission efficiency was obtained according to the simulation results with an actual extended source.The selection,crossover and mutation operations are implemented until the optimization results can meet the requirements.To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method,a uniform lighting system with cone angle of 10° was designed.The contrast experiments are carried out in Trace/Pro with a disc lambertian source with the size of 30 mm in diameter.The light tracing experiments show that the uniformity of the object region increases from 58.3% to 93.5%,and the transmission efficiency increases from 61.8% to 72.9%.Meanwhile,the optical quality has quite good stability at varying distances.The experimental results demonstrate that the method can achieve the adjustment of the spatial distribution of the extended source radiation which has significant guidance for the design of extended source system.

    The typical two-step phase-shifting algorithm cannot get rid of the problem in phase unwrapping processing, which is caused by the uneven distribution of intensity and the uneven reflectivity of objects. Aiming at the problem, a intensity formula, reflecting the reflectivity of the objects, is adopted, based on the analysis of 90° phase shift. The intensity data was operated directly. Then, according to the triangle theory, a algorithm was presented to get the half angle of wrapped phase. At last, three-dimensional shape information of the tested object was decoded, according to the relationship between height and difference of phase. This method avoids the errors caused by the method used to get the maximum or minimum value. The results of the proposed method are compared with those of the typical four-step phase-shifting algorithm and the two-step phase-shifting algorithm. When the surrounding intensity can be ignored or weak, its error is ±0.2 mm. It is better than resutls of typical two-step phase-shifting algorithm, close to results of accepted low-error four-step phase-shifting algorithm.

    A fast image defogging algorithm based on edge-maximum filter was proposed to address halo effect and color distortion caused by the existing defogging methods. Firstly, an edge-maximum filter was used to recover the undervalued dark pixels obtained by edge detection, which was to receive an accurate transmission map and eliminate the halo effect. Then in order to gain a high contrast dehazing image, all the dark pixels were multiplied by a scaling factor to improve the dynamic ranges of the transmission. Finally, two brightness thresholds and one flat threshold were set to eliminate the influence of high light objects in the image and obtain a more accurate airlight, which keeps a high color fidelity in the dehazing image. The simulation results show that the proposed method, compared with other algorithms, could eliminate the halo effect and achieve the dehazing image with high contrast and high color fidelity, especially for the images containing high light objects or rich details. Meanwhile, the computational speed is also improved.

    In order to obtain the strongest yellow luminescence intensity of the novel Bi2ZnB2O7: Y3+/Dy3+ phosphor, uniform design and quadratic general rotary unitized design were combined to optimize Y3+/ Dy3+ ions doping concentrations, the result shows that the optimum doping concentrations of Y3+/ Dy3+ were 4.498 mol% and 6.001 mol%, respectively. High temperature solid state method was applied to synthesize the optimal sample, and the crystal structure and luminescent properties were investigated. The emission spectra of the samples under 452 nm excitation were observed, where the blue emission band was at around 460~500 nm, the yellow emission was at around 550~610 nm and the weaker peak of the red emission is at around 650~700 nm. They were corresponding to the emissions from the 4F9/2 excited state to the 6H15/2, 6H13/2 and 6H11/2 ground states, respectively. The result indicates that the Dy3+ ions were located at a non-centrosymmetric site in the host lattice. Besides, the luminescence decay curve illustrated that the fluorescence lifetime of Dy3+ was 0.427 ms. It was found from the comparison between the optimized and the single-doped samples with the same Dy3+ concentration that Y3+-introduction could improve the emission intensity of the studied phosphor in a certain degree.

    In order to research nonlinear absorption effect of pulse laser irradiation for GaAs,a physical model of Gaussian distribution pulse laser irradiation for semiconductor material was established by software COMSOL Multiphysics. The thermal effects of semiconductor material GaAs was analyzed under irradiation of nanosecond pulse laser with wavelength of 1064nm. The temperature distribution along radial direction and longitudinal direction of semiconductor material GaAs was calculated under irradiation of nanosecond pulse laser with different power density by means of solving the thermal conduction equations. The contribution of one-photon absorption, two-photon absorption and free carrier absorption to temperature of the irradiated material was discussed. The calculation results show that when the pulse laser power density is above 1010W/cm2, Free Carrier Absorption played a leading role and is more than that of One-Photon Absorption of material. When the pulse laser power destiny is below 108 W/cm2, the temperature contribution of two kinds of nonlinear absorption of materials could be ignored. The result is basically consistent with relevant experiments, which shows that physical model constructed is scientific.

    In order to efficiently extract the first and second harmonic signals from the differential signal in infrared gas detection based on tunable laser absorption spectroscopy, an orthogonal phase lock-in amplifier was developed. According to the principle of orthogonal lock-in amplifier and harmonic detection, the simulative experiment system based on Simulink platform was set up, and its functions were simulated and verified. The hardware system is designed and developed by adopting a digital signal processor as its core controller, which is mainly composed of a 90° phase shifter, two analog multiplier, two low pass filter, a differential signal amplifier and an AD converter. In experiment, firstly, by using standard sine-wave signals with tunable amplitudes as the signals to be measured, the amplitudes of the output signals from the fabricated lock-in amplifier and the standard amplitudes are both tested and compared. Good linear relationship is found between them, the linear fitting degree is as high as 0.999 94, and the maximum error is less than 4%. Secondly, using the simulated differential signal with gas absorption as the signal to be measured, and by using fundamental square wave signal and frequency-doubled square wave signals as reference signals, both first and second harmonic signal are extracted. Because the second harmonic signal is too weak and easy to be polluted by noises, its detection error is less than 5%, and that of the first harmonic signal is less than 3.5%. The proposed system has good applicative prospects in infrared gas detection due to good stability and high price ratio.

    Assuming that the photocurrent is much larger than the diode reverse saturation current,shunt resistance is infinite and diode reverse saturation current is independent of light intensity,a performance prediction model of photovoltaic module under different operating conditions was proposed and a simulation system was built by using Matlab/Simulink programs.Through the comparison between computer simulations and experimental data for mono/poly crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules,it showed that the proposed model can accurately predict the photovoltaic modules output characteristics at different light intensities and temperatures,and the relative prediction error precisions were all below 6%.The results also reveal that temperature change has a greater impact on modules performance prediction than the light intensity,and it is harder to predict module performance of polycrystalline silicon than that of mono crystalline silicon.Moreover,the prediction results of photovoltaic modules performance in natural environment showed that the output characteristics of the modules are mainly determined by light intensity rather than by temperature.it is found that the output voltage of the modules should be varied when conditions of light intensities and temperatures change,in order to achieve the maximum output power.
