The expression for the Rayleigh range of partially coherent annular beams propagating through non-Kolmogorov turbulence is derived, and the influence of turbulence parameters (generalized exponent parameterα , inner scale l0 , outer scale L0 ) and the beam parameters on the Rayleigh range is studied. It is shown thatRayleigh range zR| turb in turbulence decreases with increasing intensity of turbulence, and is always smaller than Rayleigh range zR| free in free space; zR| turb decreases with increasing L0 (just for 3.6 < α < 4 ) and increases with increasing l0 ; zR| turb does not monotonically vary with the increase of α , namely, it decreases firstly and then increases due to increasing α . When α = 3.11 , zR| turb reaches its minima. Additionally, the influence of turbulence on the Rayleigh range increases with increasing coherence parameter β , beam width w0 and decreasing obscure ratio ε , beam orders M(N ).

    Based on the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle, the propagation properties of electromagnetic Gaussian multi-Schell model beams through atmospheric turbulence in a slanted path are investigated in detail. Results indicate that the changing of transverse coherence length has an effect on the far-field intensity distribution and the beam width induced by atmospheric turbulence of the laser beam. Besides, the degree of polarization of the electromagnetic Gaussian multi-Schell model beams can change with the propagation distance, and it can reach a certain value when the laser beam propagates through atmospheric turbulence in a slant path. This result indicates potential applications for satellite-to-ground or ground-to-satellite laser communications.

    Based on signal spectral transforming principle, an all-optical return-to-zero (RZ) to non-return-tozero (NRZ) format conversion is realized by using a micro-ring resonator with the comb transmission spectrum and a narrow bandpass filter. Influences of devices′ parameters, such as different narrow bandpass filters, coupling conditions of micro-ring resonator and duty ratio of the RZ input signal, on eye-diagram quality of converted NRZ signal are investigated in detail. Results demonstrate that 2-order Butterworth filter is expected to decrease the influences of coupling conditions and the duty ratio of RZ signal on the conversion performances. In addition, by adjusting the ring-resonator size, the designed RZ-to-NRZ format converter is compatible with system having several bit rates signals. This will be better adapt to the development of future optical networks.<网络出版日期.2015-01-09

    A stress element analysis method is proposed for calculating the stress field and birefringence at the center of fiber core with any shape of fiber stress region. With the help of solid mechanics module in COMSOL Multiphysics software, stress field distribution and birefringence at the center of optical fiber core with the different shapes such as rectangle, square, triangle, circular stress element are studied. The results show that the stress field and birefringence at stress-induced optical fiber core are independent of the shape and direction of stress elements if the area of stress elements is the same and the stress element is small enough. They are only related with the distance between the fiber core and the center of the stress element. When the stress element is close to the core, this relationship between birefringence and distance approaches inverse square. The correctness and effectiveness of stress element analysis method can be verified from the results. So with integration of the stress element, stress distribution and birefringence at fiber core with any shape of stress region can be obtained.

    Variety discrimination for single rice seed is important to prevent the mixing and adulteration during seed production and to ensure the seed purity. A fast discrimination method for single rice seed by using the hyperspectral imaging technology is investigated. Hyperspectral images of rice seeds from ten varieties are collected over the wavelength region of 400~1000 nm, and the spectral, texture and morphological features of rice seeds are extracted. The discrimination accuracy of different features and their combinations is compared by using the partial least squares discriminant analysis, and the multiple progressive uninformative variable elimination algorithm combined with the partial least squares projection analysis algorithm is used for optimal waveband selection. The results show that the satisfactory discrimination accuracy, which is 99.22% and 96% for the training set and test set respectively, is achieved when mean, entropy and power features for the 23 optimal wavebands and morphological features are integrated. It suggests that multiple hyperspectral feature integration can effectively improve discrimination accuracy for single rice seed at the case of a small amount of wavebands, which basically meets the requirements of the national standards on the seed purity identification.

    Laser spot simulation is the important part of target characteristic simulation in hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) simulation system for laser guided weapon jamming. The HITL system composition and laser seeker theory are introduced. Laser spot simulation scheme based on correspondent ratio scaling in similarity theory is shown. Optical system model of laser seeker is established by LightTools, and the sizes of laser spot on detector′ s photosensitive surface in infield and outfield are calculated in different guided time. Laser spot simulation optimization methods based on HITL simulation system for laser guided weapon jamming are proposed. The research result indicates that under HITL condition the size of laser spot on detector′s photosensitive surface is bigger than that in outfield environment, and their changings are not the same. With the distance from the target decreasing, the size of laser spot on diffuse reflectance screen increases and this leads to the increase of laser spot on detector′s photosensitive surface. The result is helpful to improve the precision of laser spot simulation and the reliability of HITL simulation system for laser guided weapon jamming.

    A novel method with high resolution has been proposed which is based on heterodyne interferometry and scanning probe to get the measurement values of superfinish surface scratch. But the optical nonlinear errors affect the measurement precision of the system. We adopt the Jones matrix to analyze the change of elliptic polarization caused by the composite error factors, which are polarization ellipticity and installation orientation error of laser source, phase retardation of quarter-wave plate and polarization leakage of polarization beam splitter. The measurement errors of frequency mixing about these elliptic polarization beams arriving at the photodiode detector are studied by vector theory. The results show that the measurement errors are periodic errors, and they are more affected by nonideal laser and polarization beam splitter. Also, the methods of reducing nonlinear error according to the numerical results in the system are suggested.

The results show that when the power density of interaction of intense laser is 1020 W/cm2, due to the self-generated magnetic field produced plasma target, the proton distribution exhibites space directional emission; the emission direction and the energy of the high energy proton are closely related to the plasma target surface. The higher proton energy, the smaller the divergence angle and the better proton accelerator effect are. In the round thin plasma target, the proton maximum energy reaches 41.1 MeV.

    An acousto-optic Q-switched Nd:YVO4 laser end-pumped by laser diode (LD) is used as the pump source, and a MgO-doped PPLN (PPMgLN) is chosen as nonlinear crystal. By optimizing the pump beam quality and mode matching, a mid-infrared pulsed optical parametric oscillator (OPO) is realized. In the experiment, if laser diode (LD) pump power is determined, mid-infrared laser output power is changed by the repetition frequency of the acousto-optic switch. When the repetition rate is small, the output power increases as the repetition rate increases. But when the repetition rate reaches a certain value, output power decreases as the repetition frequency increases. The optical parametric oscillator could be tuned from 2.95~4.16 mm by changing the period of PPMgLN.

    In order to improve the flexibility of the control to far-field directivity, the double butterfly-shap silver nanostructure optical antenna is put forword. The influence of the far-field directivity caused by different structures and sizes is researched based on finite difference time domain method. The research demonstrates that, because of the exist of localized surface plasmon, far- field pattern shows a significant side lobe when the dipole is placed beneath the structure vertically. The increase of length is the key factory to make the side lobe appears in the farfiled pattern. The decrease of the gap between antenna arms can make the side lobe and the main lobe gain increase in the far-field pattern. The increase in antenna thickness causes a side lobe in the far-field pattern and the main lobe gain first increases then decreases. The results show that double butterfly-shap silver nano optical antenna can change the radiation directivity of the coupling dipole source.

    According to Wolf and Richard′ s vectorial diffraction integral, a model is established, and the point spread function (PSF) in the two common conditions of confocal microscopy with a refractive index mismatch to study the effect of aberration induced by refractive index mismatch on imaging in confocal microscopy. The model is tested by experiment. When the beams focus into a spot through oil, coverslip and water, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the PSF along the z axis is broadened from 0.4391 μm to 0.931 μm with the detective depth from 0.5 μm to 10 μm . And the maximum intensity of the PSF is reduced from 1.161 to 0.4119. When the detective depth is 10 μm , the FWHM of the PSF with the refractive index match along the z axis is 1.059 μm , and its maximum intensity is 1. But the FWHM of the PSF with refractive index mismatch along the z axis is 7.5 μm , and its maximum intensity is 0.04632. When the detective depth is large, the aberration induced by refractive index mismatch can make light spot bigger, dispersive energy and influent the imaging quality.

    The numerical analysis of the dynamics of a Gaussian beam in Bessel lattices which are induced by transvering the focusing photorefractive nonlinearity crystal is presented. The propagation properties of the Gaussian beam can be different with and without the lattices. In the absence of the lattice, the beam will present linear diffraction and nonlinear focusing in a homogeneous medium. The beam can overcome these effects in a homogeneous medium after transfering in a crystal with lattices. With different initial input conditions in the case of lattices, the input beam can overcome these effects and form a ring-shaped soliton or a circle-shaped soliton.

    The finite difference time domain method (FDTD) is used to investigate the phenomenon of Fano resonance and near field distribution in the quadrumer clusters comprising nanorings or split nanorings with two gaps. The calculation results show that one prominent Fano resonance is observed in the extinction spectra of quadrumer cluster composed of nanorings and double Fano resonances are obversed in the quadrumer cluster comprising of split-nanorings. The new Fano resonance appearing in the spectra is caused by the split nanorings in quadrumer cluster forming the dark quadrupole mode. The spectral position and modulation depth of Fano resonance can be largely tuned by adjusting the angle and separation of the nanorings. These results can be used as guideline in multiwavelength surface-enhanced Raman scattering and biosensing.

    To meet the requirements of satellite laser switching network, such as fine robustness and high physical realizability, emulated-optical burst switching (OBS) is selected as the architecture of relay satellite, and an on-board resource reservation protocol, whose offset time is constant, is proposed combining the ground resource reservation methods. Traffic prediction is used to differentiate the data burst into single burst or burst stream according to the destination and quality of service (QoS), then resource reservation is accomplished successfully. To validate it, mathematic models of mean end-end delay, throughput, link utility and burst loss probability are established. The results of analysis and emulation show that the protocol can reduce the reconfiguration time and switching time of optical switch matrix through burst stream scheme, and decrease the complexity and cache size requirement through the E-OBS architecture, so the new resource reservation protocol meets the requirements of satellite laser communication.

Their theoretical basis, advantages and disadvantages, and scope of applications are exhaustively analyzed. The applications of super-resolution restoration theory is introduced. Overall, the super-resolution restoration methods are divided into frequency domain method and space domain method. Frequency domain recovery method is simple in principle and easy in calculation. But its motion model is shift model have no generality. Meanwhile it is difficult to use the priori information of the image to help super-resolution restoration. Space domain recovery method can be easily taken degradation and motion blur. More perfect priori knowledge is added. Compared with the frequency domain method, space domain superresolution restoration model is more close to actual degradation processes and currently the most widely used superresolution restoration method.
