A controlled bidirectional quantum secure direct communication protocol without information leakage was proposed. In the proposed protocol, two authenticated communication parties, Alice and Bob, were able to securely exchange their secret messages simultaneously under the control of the controller, Charlie. The problem of information leakage was overcome by making full use of the measurement correlation property after entanglement swapping among three Bell states. Moreover, the proposed protocol merely took the Bell state as quantum resource and merely needed the Bell measurement so that it was convenient to implement. Security analysis shows that the proposed protocol can detect not only the active attacks from the outside eavesdropper, but also the dishonest behavior from the controller, Charlie. It can be concluded that the proposed protocol has good security.

    In order to improve the imaging resolution and image contrast, the method proposed in this paper to achieve phase-contrast imaging with a spiral photon sieves.The transmission zone of the spiral zone plate is replaced appropriately by a large number of pinholes, with Bessel-like function as the spiral photon sieves apodization window.The same minimum features sizes, the numerical aperture of spiral photon sieves is increased compared to spiral zone plate, so spiral photon sieves show substantially better spatial resolution the spiral zone plate according to the Rayleigh resolution criterion.The advantage of spiral photon sieves is that can modulate the population of the pinholes per zone with an apodization window, resulting in high signal-to-noise ratio or extremely low side lobe. So the spiral photon sieves have a high imaging contrast based on the principle of pupil apodization. Compared with the spiral zone plate, the point spread function of the spiral photon sieve the main lobe width is relatively narrow and the side lobe amplitude is relatively lower. In phase-contrast imaging, spiral photon sieve can not only eliminate image “relief” effect in the circular phase object imaging but also can distinguish dense phase jump in the periodic rectangular strip phase object imaging, improving greatly the image contrast. Therefore, the spiral photon sieves has higher resolution and contrast in phase-contrast imaging, so that it will have broad application prospects in the field of medicine.

    When CIDC1816 direct coupling-enhanced digital camera was collecting still images, the effects of image intensifier cathode voltage decay time on the electron-optical systems were analyzed in theory, and it was proved that cathode voltage decay time also had impact on screen brightness decay time. A method was proposed using the high-speed response characteristics of electronic switches to reduce cathode voltage decay time and improve this kind of digital camera time response characteristics. Using this method during the period of collecting still images, the results show that image intensifier cathode voltage decay time was reduced from 80~130 ms to 50~60 ns, the impact on the electron-optical systems by cathode voltage decay time was reduced, and the screen brightness decay time was reduced from 12~26 ms to 3~4 ms, when the outside light conditions was greater than 10-4 lx. The results prove that this method can effectively reduce the image intensifier cathode voltage decay time and screen brightness decay time and be used as reference scheme for improving this kind of camera still-picture quality.

    Micro-packaged fiber Bragg grating temperature sensor is used to perform the distributed temperature sensing for the local area of the object surface. Packaged with steel capillary, ten wavelength-division-multiplexed temperature sensors are cascaded and placed in parallel along the tangential direction at the observed point for making quasi-distributed detection. The response time of the packaged sensors is 2.74 s. Using ANSYS software to analyze the thermal steady-state laminar flow of air the contour plots of temperature distribution was obtained. Experiments show that the first-order change rate of the curves of temperature change with height is -24.262, and the second-order change rate is 10.117 2. Comparing with the result of ANSYS simulation (its first-order change rate is -22.842, and second-order change rate is 8.613), the reliability of this measurement method was verified. This technology provides a technical support for knowing the local distribution of temperature as well as a new testing program for aircraft material selecting and configuration determining.

    Due to the high peak to average power ratio in coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system, fractional Fourier transform combined with peak to average power ratio reduction algorithm was proposed. With the decrease of fractional Fourier transform order, the peak to average power ratio of signal is reduced. Fractional Fourier transform combined with the reduction algorithm can reduce the peak to average power ratio further, and improve the degradation of transmission performance caused by the reduction algorithm. The simulation analyses have three aspects including compatibility of the combination, inhibition effect of peak to average power ratio and improvement of the negative effects in the reduction algorithm. The results show that the probability of the selective mapping algorithm combined with fractional Fourier transform is 104 less than that of the single selective mapping algorithm when the rotation factor is 4 and the peak to average power ratio is higher than 6.6 dB. When the same degree of inhibition of peak to average power ratio is chosen, the time complexity of the combined algorithm decrease by 8 times than single algorithm. The simulation results using clipping algorithm combined with fractional Fourier transform have great improvement than single algorithm, which shows combined algorithm has good performance of compatibility.

    Based on orthogonal dual-pump four wavelength mixing in an semiconductor optical amplifier,theorectical model of all-optical wavelength conversion for polarization multiplexing quadrature phase shift keying signals was set up for studing the characteristics of wavelength conversion for polarization multiplexing phase-modulated signals. The simulation system was built based on the theoretical analysis. Results show that the frequency spacing between the pump and signal lightwave, the polarization angle between pump1 and one of the polarization multiplexing signals have effects on the converion efficiency and the quality of the signals; and the phase noise generated by cross phase modulation in wavelength conversion also has effect on the quality of the signals, and when the power of two pumps is much larger than that of the signal lightwave, the cross phase modulation has small effect on the quality of the signals. The simulation results are consistent with the theoretical analysis. The methods and some results can be useful to research wavelength conversion system for other polarization multiplexing signal based on four wavelength mixing in SOA.

    The mathematic models of the Mach-Zehnder interferometers based fiber-optic distributed disturbance sensor for the multiple disturbances applications were established in accordance with coherent lightwave theory. According to the models, the influences of the multiple disturbances on the location precision of the fiber-optic distributed disturbance sensor were simulated. The relationship concerning the location precision, the amplitude ratio and the distance of the disturbances were presented. The simulation results demonstrate that the stronger disturbance can be located when the amplitude ratio of the multiple disturbances is larger than or equals to 20. The multiple disturbances can be regarded as a disturbance when the distances of the disturbances are less than 100 m. The polarization beam splitters were utilized to eliminate the influence of the polarization induced fading. Then the signal generator produced sine wave, applied to the two piezoelectric transducers simultaneously to simulate the disturbances. The experimental results show that when the amplitude ratio of the two disturbances imposed on the sensing fiber at 5 km and 10 km is larger than or equals to 20, the maximum location error from the strongest disturbance is 200 m. The maximum location error from the 5 km position is 100 m when the amplitude ratio of the two disturbances applied at 5 km and 5.05 km is 1. The numerical simulation results were proved by the experiments and helpful to improve the location precision and reduce the false alarm rate for multiple disturbances applications.

    To simplify the calculation of three-dimensional objects and accelerate the computation time about holographic data, a method for spectrum extraction of 3D object with object points was presented. The spectrum method for model was analyzed and the spectrum could be derived from the integration of a perspective image multiplied by a factor of a specific plane wave. The algorithm for perspectives generation of an object was discussed in detail. The parallel computation with Matlab language was used to reduce the computational burden. And a 3D bird was tested with this method to generated perspectives. Based on the spectrum distribution of real object, a simplified extraction model with high order Gauss probability distribution was proposed which could hugely reduce the number of perspectives needed to form 3D spectrum. The inverse Fourier transform was used to get complex amplitude distribution in a plane of object field and the result was diffracted and added a reference wave in order to code as Fresnel hologram. The numerical reconstruction and experiment indicate that only 17.75% of the total original views can get high-quality reconstructed image and validity of the proposed method. The 3D spectrum can be coded as different kind of holograms for 3D display and it extends the application of 3D spectrum.

A multi-plane holographic projection system was developed with liquid crystal on silicon phase modulator. First, the programmable Fresnel phase lenses were substituted for the Fourier lens, in addition, the phase of Fresnel phase lenses were added to the computer generated phase holograms.

    In order to preserve both spectral and spatial information simultaneously in fused image, a method of remote sensing image fusion based on improved gradient projection Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) and Complex Contourlet Transform (CCT) was proposed. Firstly, the panchromatic image was histogram matched to the intensity component of multispectral image to obtain a new panchromatic image. Then, the intensity component of multispectral image and the new panchromatic image were decomposed by CCT, respectively. Corresponding low frequency images and high frequency images were obtained. Next, the new low frequency image was obtained by fusion of two low frequency images using improved gradient projection NMF, and the new high frequency image was obtained by fusion of two high frequency images with absolute maximum criterion. Finally, the fused image was reconstructed by inverse CCT and inverse Hue-Saturation-Intensity (HSI) transform. A large number of experimental results show that, compared with other existing relative methods such as HSI method, the method combining NMF with nonsubsampled contourlet transform and the method combining lifting wavelet with HSI, the images fused by proposed method have higher spatial resolution and more spectral information.

Then, analysis of the model of crosstalk was processed respectively in vertical and horizontal directions to the flat-panel displays, which aimed to obtain the distribution characteristics of crosstalk in three-dimensional space before the screen. The simulation results show that viewing zone in vertical direction along the screen is greater than it in horizontal direction. And, each view has multiple observation points without any crosstalk in a horizontal direction parallel to the screen, but in the direction perpendicular to the screen, each view has only one such point. Through the simulation analysis of viewing zone, the accuracy of the crosstalk calculation was further validated. The research results of this paper establish a simulation basic platform for the optimum design and concrete realization of autostereoscopic display system.

The parameters of the water fogs such as extinction coefficient, concentration and the asymmetry parameter were analyzed, all of which had impact on the extinction character, and it was found that the asymmetry parameter was also an important one. The research indicates that for the medium with the same extinction coefficient, the lower the value of the asymmetry parameter is, the more exquisitely the water fogs can build down the heat radiation, however one can′t get the conclusion based on the Lambert-Beer′s law; when the radiuses of the water fogs are much bigger than the infrared wavelength, the attenuation effect can be enhanced by increasing the mass concentration of the water fogs and decreasing the radiuses of the particles.

    The non-linear intensity response of digital projector can be eliminated in 3D shape measurement using defocused binary fringe projection technique. The speed of projecting can be increased and it is possible to realize high speed measurement as well. Typical binary fringes used in digital projection were adopted as a study subject. The relation between the fundamental frequency, higher harmonics and fringe period of binary fringe was studied through the theoretical analysis and experiments. According to suitable phase shifting algorithm, the performance of various binary fringes was measured using the measurement error of phase as its target. The results showed that sinusoidal fringe with high performance could be generated by defocusing the Ronchi grating and pattern generated using 2D error diffusion algorithm under the condition that fringe with short period was adopted. The measurement accuracy of defocused Ronchi grating was higher than that of other pattern, when the algorithm of odd step phase-shifting with equal interval in one period was used for 3D measurement; the highest measurement accuracy was obtained by using defocused optimal pulse width modulation fringe, when the period of fringe was long. The research results provide the evidence for selection of binary grating in the 3D measurement based on defocused projection.

    The nonlinear propagation of finite energy Airy beam (FEAB) in Kerr media was investigated numerically. The characteristics of whole beam self-focusing (WBSF) and small-scale self-focusing (SSFS) of the FEAB were thoroughly studied during its nonlinear propagation. It was found that the SSFS is more likely to take place than the WBSF, and the growth rate of noise modulation decreases with increasing the truncation factor. By comparing the gain spectra of SSFS for different truncaed factors, it can been seen that the truncation factor has a large impact on the gain spectrum of the FEAB indicating the possibility of the breakup of the FEAB induced by noise is inversely proportional to the truncated factor. In addition, the gain spectrum of FEAB is more similar to that of the Gaussian beam fitted from the main lobe of FEAB in the case of larger truncation factor. These results are very important for the potential application of the FEAB.

    The luminous properties of sphere-like remote phosphor white LEDs with high Correlated Color Temperature(CCT) and low CCT were studied under different drive currents and heat sink temperatures. The result shown that the quantum efficiency and luminous efficacy of both LEDs raise with the increase of heat sink temperatures; the high-CCT LED’s quantum efficiency and luminous efficacy decrease with rising currents. However, the low-CCT LED shows a reverse trend. The reason is attributed to the quantum confinement stark effect in the active region, which makes the wavelength move towards short-wavelength so as to deviate from the optimum stimulation wavelength of the high-CCT phosphor, but close to the optimum stimulation wavelength of the low-CCT phosphor. The CCT of the high-CCT LED increase with rising currents, again, the low-CCT LED shows a reverse trend with rising currents. This trend is mainly related to the drifting of color coordinates caused by quantum efficiency changing. To sum up, the high-CCT LED possesses better optical properties but inferior color properties than the low-CCT LED.

    The time delay characteristics of microring resonator device based on optical Kerr effect were studied. The coupling coeffecient was calculated by the coupled mode theory. The designed parameters were introduced including the material and component. The radius of microring was 300 μm. The sectional dimension was 400×1 000 nm2. The controlling methods of time delay was presented. The motivation was large time delay value as much as possible on the condition of less than ±5 ps ripple. The results show that the delay time is more than 130 ps; compensating bandwidth is about 20 GHz; free spectral range is 50 GHz; the working wavelength which is 1 550 nm satisfies the demand of dense wavelength division multiplexing system. The energy consumption is less than 0.8 dBm. The fast operating speed is ps order and small capacity which is less than 3 mm2 is great advantages for the device. The devices provide references for the delay lines in all optical communication networks.

    Data for the spectral reflectance of soil and wheat were collected using an ASD field spectrometer in the laboratory, and the soil samples and wheat samples were collected for chemical analysis of Cadmium concentrations. A normalization spectral pre-processing method such as the weighted smoothing, first derivative, continuum removal and logarithm of reciprocal transform spectrometer were employed. On this basis, choosing the sensitive wave band which has significant correlations with Cadmium pollution in soil and wheat as the correlation factors, and establishing the cadmium pollution content in soil-wheat system prediction model. The result shows that both of the content of Cd in reclaimed soils tested on the sites by filling mining coal gangue and fly ash are qualified for the third level criterion of Environmental quality standards for soils, but neither of the wheat planted on it does. The correlation coefficient of prediction model of soil is 0.974, and the correlation coefficient of prediction model of wheat is 0.782, which prove that the model can be ideal for estimate the cadmium content of the soil and wheat in mine reclamation farmland. The study can provide new method for monitoring heavy metals pollution level of soil and crop timely, dynamically, widely and speedy by using hyperspectral data, and providing constructive idea for guarantee of food security.

    Hyperspectral sensors can acquire the radiance of a scene in a high resolution both in spatial and spectral dimensions, which produces good benefits for oil spill detection. Because the cloud background in hyperspectral scene severely interfere oil spill detection result, a new method is presented to reduce the cloud background in hyperspectal scenes. Firstly, the spectral reflectance characteristics of oil spill are analyzed. According to the spectral characteristics of the C-H bond of oil spill, the false color generation based oil spill detection method is introduced. Secondly, the radiance characteristics of seawater, oil spill and cloud is compared. Based on the radiation characteristics of cloud, a new model is build to extract the radiance features of cloud. On this basis, the difference of cloud and seawater, and oil spill are considered. And the band image which has maximum cloud radiance is selected. The cloud background suppression map is then generated by using the band image and the radiance feature of the cloud background. Finally, the background suppression result is obtained by multiplying the false color image by background suppression map. The proposed method is applied to the real Airborne Visible InfraRed Imaging Spectrometer hyperspectral image captured during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico for oil spill detection. The results show that the proposed method can effectively suppress the cloud background for oil spill detection from hyperspectral data, and does not affect the oil spill detection performance.

    The yellow laser, which is close to the sensitive area of human eyes, plays an important role in many fields, and the resonant cavity is an important component of laser. A four wavelengths cavity surface film by using a vacuum coating equipment was developed based on Nd∶YVO4 crystal (c-cut). First, in the process of film system design, the distribution of standing wave field reasonably in the film was made by analyzing the film field strength and optimizing the film system, thus to reduce the possibility of film damage theoretically. Then, through technics feedback analysis to the test result by TFCalc and several simulation experiments, it was found that in different wavelengths the film thickness ratio is different even in the same monitoring method. And the problem of spectral curve drift was solved by adjusting the tool factor. Finally, the yellow laser cavity surface film with firm film and stable chemical performance was prepared, which also met the requirements of four wavelengths spectral output.

    BaTiO3 (BTO) waveguide thin films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) on single crystal MgO substrate. In order to improve the crystalline quality and surface roughness, two process parameters of growth temperature and laser energy were studied and optimized, and the film sample was conducted in-situ annealing. The crystallization effect of BTO thin film was found in the first direction. The dependent relations of quality characteristics and growth temperature were analyzed, and the effects of different laser energy on the crystalline film surface roughness were studied. The crystallization effect and characteristic of the film were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The surface morphology and roughness were detected by atomic force microscopy. The results indicate that BTO film could be c-axial oriented film. High strength sharp diffraction peak appeared in the direction of (001) and (002). The film has good crystal quality and small surface roughness of 0.563 nm.

    Continuous wave photoinduced absorption spectroscopy was used to investigate long lived Delocalized Polaron (DP) and Localized Polaron (LP) in the blend of regio-regular poly (3-hexylthiophene) (RR-P3HT) and [6,6]-Phenyl-C61-Butyric acid Methyl ester (PCBM). From the modulation frequency dependence of PIA signals at various pump intensities and sample temperatures, in millisecond time regime both LP and DP exhibited dispersive bimolecular recombination which was limited by the trap states and could be activated thermally; the activation energy for recombination of DP and LP is 25 meV and 13 meV with laser intensity similar to one sun illumination, respectively.
