Laser beam shaping system based on deformable mirror has the advantages of control flexibility, good adaptability and high damage threshold. In order to enhance performance of the laser beam shaping system with a deformable mirror as the phase modulation element, a stochastic parallel gradient descent algorithm is proposed to further optimize control voltage, which takes the least square fitting control voltage as the initial value. Laser beam can be transformed to square and circular flat topped beam with different sizes by a 37 element deformable mirror. Numerical simulation results show that, for the far field intensity, both the uniformity of target area and the similarity to the theoretical intensity are improved, after the introduction of optimization algorithm, on the basis of the least square method. So the performance of the laser beam shaping system is also improved.descent algorithm

Based on the Doppler effect, the principle of laser velometer system and the balanced detection realization method are described, the formula of light current is derived, and its advantages compared with the conventional coherent detection technique are analyzed. The formula of the signal-to-noise, which is derived by light current, is used to attain the influence factors. The simulation results demonstrate that when the reflection coefficient is set in (0.2908,0.7092) or the conversion coefficient ratio of two detectors is set in (0.4632,1), the dual balanced detection technique offers higher signal- to- noise ratio than the conventional detection technique.

    Aiming at the problem of oversize eigen current of resonant tunneling diode photodetector focal plane array working at near-infrared wavelengths, a method that using p-doped type in double barriers structure (DBS) of resonant tunneling diode photodetector working at near- infrared wavelengths to suppress eigen current is presented. The current-voltage characteristics are simulated by finite element software. Effects of single barrier pdoped, double barriers p-doped,DBS p-doped and concentrations of p-doping on the eigen current suppression are researched. Simulation results show that the peak tunneling current of the detector with p-doped in DBS reduces about 3 orders of magnitude compared with that of the detector with undoped DBS. It is also found that the eigen current reduces with the increasing of the doping concentration of the DBS. The proposed device has been fabricated and tested. The results demonstrate that the eigen current is effectively suppressed when the DBS is doped in p-type.

    Fiber optic accelerometer receives more and more attention in recent years due to its advantages. A fiber optic accelerometer based on two-end fixed beam is presented, which is on the basis of the beam sensors. A kind of small-diameter single-mode optical fiber with high numerical aperture is wrapped on the beam as the sensing fiber. The minimum bending radius of the single-mode is analyzed, thereby more fiber can be affixed to the beam arm without any bending loss and the sensitivity is enhanced. The transverse sensitivity is greatly reduced due to the double- ended fixed structure which is convenient for the production of three- dimensional sensor. The nature frequency of the sensor and the sensitivity are analyzed theoretically. The linearity of the sensor response is analyzed by experiments. The sensor presented has the natural frequency around 360 Hz, and its sensitivity up to 3300 rad / g at 100 Hz. It can be used to detect low-frequency acceleration effectively.

    Measurements of power frequency electric field are necessary to understand electromagnetic environments and optimize the high voltage electrical equipment. For this purpose, a novel fiber Bragg grating (FBG) based on the all-fiber power-frequency electric-field sensor is proposed. The sensor head actually is an optical fiber cantilever beam with a FBG, on which the polyimide resin as the electric field induction medium is multiple-layer coated. When the fiber cantilever beam is put into the electric field, the polyimide coating will produce the dynamic polarization effect under the induction of power frequency electric field because of the dielectric properties of polyimide coating materials, which, in turn, induces the fiber cantilever beam to vibrate periodically through the action of the timevarying electric field force. As a result, the Bragg wavelength of FBG also is modulated. The maximum shift of the Bragg wavelength is proportional to the applied electric-field strength. For demodulation of the detection signal, a laser source is used and its operating wavelength at the edge of the FBG reflective spectrum is selected. Through this operation, the change of optical power reflected from the FBG can be monitored and the power-frequency electric field strength can be measured. The experimental investigations prove that the proposed sensing method for power frequency electric field measurements is feasible and the prototype of the sensor had very high detection sensitivity and good measurement accuracy in the 1 kV to 4 kV voltage range.

    The traditional remote sensing image fusion methods is not make good use of spatial information of the low-resolution multispectral images. To solve this problem, a novel remote sensing image fusion method based on low-resolution multispectral image super-resolution processing is proposed. The low-resolution multispectral image is processed by super- resolution based on sparse representation, which enhances spatial information while maintaining the spectral information. The intensity component Y of the enhanced multispectral image and the panchromatic image are fused using the stationary wavelet transform. The fused multispectral image is obtained via inverse YUV transform. The experimental results carried out on real remote sensing images show that the proposed algorithm is able to improve spatial details of the fused image effectively while maintaining the spectral information. The effectiveness of the proposed method is also verified by the comparable experiments.

    A robust matching algorithm based on spatial marked points is proposed to improve the reliability of threedimensional (3D) scanning registration. This methodology defines the spatial energy to describe the uniqueness of the marked points, which is based on the distance and the spatial relationship between the marked points. Besides, the uniqueness of the energy can be applied to match the marked-points and stitch them together in different views. Compared with the traditional methodology, this algorithm can significantly avoid the ambiguity problem in the process of stitching. According to the experimental results, it only takes less than 2 ms to reach the accuracy of 100% when matching the marked-points in two views, which can realize the 3D data registration of multiple-view in the real time.

    A common-path interferometry is proposed to measure the phase of liquid crystal spatial light modulator (LCSLM), which is based on the pricinple of liquid-crystal polarization splitted light. The linearly polarized input beam is divided into two orthogonal polarized beams by LCSLM, and then propagates to the Wollaston prism (WP) along the same direction. Two beams transmitted from the WP generate lateral shearing and a tilt modulation is introduced into the two beams, and hence a carrier-frequency interferogram is obtained after passing analyzer polarizer. The relative phase-shift between two frames of fringes is calculated accurately by using the Fourier-transform algorithm. A phase modulation experiment to the transmissive LCSLM is given. The proposed method is less sensitive to vibrations and air turbulence. Furthurmore, it can measure the whole phase modulation characteristics of LCSLM, and the measuring result is more precise and scientific.

For example, we study the system that reaches diffraction limit in normal temperature. When the temperature ranges from -40 ℃ to 60 ℃ , it is found that modify the four parameters in the surface displacement formula will make the surface displacement decrease or go to zero. So the optical system imaging quality gets improvement and achieves athermalization. The conclusion is that the surface displacement formula can guide the design of athermalization.

    Traditional strategy of designing a two-mirror catadioptric optical system employs zero-power correcting elements to balance the residual aberrations, which usually contains two or three refracted, even asphere, lenses. The use of an axial gradient-index (AGRIN) lens can achieve the same goal of aberration correction, as well as a compact and light weight system which employs only one correction element. This paper summarizes primary aberrations theory of the two-mirror catadioptric optical system and the AGRIN lens. A method of designing a twomirror catadioptric system with an AGRIN lens instead of homogeneous lenses is presented. As an example, a twomirror catadioptricsystem, whose focal length is 3000 mm, F-number is 8, and the field of view is 1°, is promoted. The design result shows that the wavefront aberration is less than 0.07 l, the system dispersion radius is close to the radius of Airy, the transfer function at 50 lp/mm is higher than 0.35, the maximum distortion of the system is less than 0.5, the maximum field is less than 0.2, and the image quality almost reaches the diffraction limit.

    In order to obtain excellent output signals from wavelength channels, the structures of reflecting splitters based on photonic crystal U- shaped resonators (PCUR) are designed. Electromagnetic wave power splitting characteristics of these structures are studied by the time- domain finite- difference method. Four symmetrical structures can split wavelength power into two equal parts, and all of them have the characteristic of high transmission efficiency in the third communication window. Five asymmetrical structures have the characteristic of low signal crosstalk at the peak wavelength. According to our needs of designs, high transmission efficiency splitters with different channel wavelength intervals can be obtained by changing radii of scattering dielectric rods or 3×2 inner rods of the two PCURs in the symmetrical structure of reflecting splitters based on 3×2 PCURs. The results show that these micro reflecting splitters based on PCURs have the advantages of excellent wavelength selectivity, flexible designs, low crosstalk at peak wavelength and so on.

The calibration curve is drawn using the intensity ratio of each line to the Fe reference line intensity, and the limit of detection is calculated. The effect of atomic configuration, angular momentum and transition probability on calibration curve and limit of detection is studied. It is indicated that the high SBR spectral line gets lower limit of detection, and is more sensitive to element detection. The spectral line SBR is independent on transition probability. The variation in SBR with element content exhibits similar characteristics for the lines with the same atomic configuration. The excitation of lines with large angular momentum is better with higher regression coefficient of calibration curves. The limit of detection of Cr (I) 425.435 nm (4-3) and Cu (I) 324.754 nm (3/2-1/2) decreases by 11% and 42% compared to the lines Cr (I) 427.481 nm (3-3) and Cu (I) 327.396 nm (1/2-1/2) respectively.

    Using the double slit diffraction and interference principle, small fluctuation of wavelength leads to refractive index change and generates a obvious phase difference between two diffraction slits. Thus zero level of the diffraction stripe deviates from the optical axis. Small fluctuation of wavelength is monitored in realtime through the change of offset. Experimental results show that 2 pm change of the laser wavelengh can cause displacement of diffraction stripe for about 2.6 μm. Because the displacement of zero level diffraction stripe is detected, effects of light intensity change are avoided which greatly improves the wavelength monitoring resolution.

    Accurate, rapid and non- destructive estimation of apple canopy SPAD (soil and plant analyzer development) values using hyperspectral remote sensing has important significance for monitoring the growth of apple trees. Spectral reflectance and SPAD values of 196 apple canopies are measured in 62 orchards in two years. The original spectra and the continuum- removed spectra are analyzed and correlated with SPAD values. The continuum-removed spectral indices of DVI (difference vegetation index), RVI (ratio vegetation index) and NDVI (normalized difference vegetation index) are calculated by the combination of arbitrary two bands in the range from 350 nm to 1300 nm. The stepwise regression and principal component analysis methods are used to extract the principal components as the independent variables. A support vector machine regression model for estimation of SPAD values is constructed and verified by the data collected in the second year. The vegetation indices of the biggest correlation between SPAD and the three newly built vegetation indices are NDVI (406, 563), RVI (406,565) and DVI (646,695), and the correlation coefficient (r) reaches 0.677, 0.690 and 0.711, respectively. The support vector machine regression model is verified. Relative error of prediction (REP) is 1.190%, PR2 is 0.837 and relative percent deviation of prediction (RPDP) is 2.213. The continuum-removed method and building vegetation indices can improve the correlation between spectra and apple canopy SPAD values. The spectral index which has the highest correlation with SPAD is composed of the visible bands. The support vector machine regression model has excellent ability to estimate the SPAD values of apple canopies which are growing rapidly.

By controlling the heating temperature and time in the thermal treatment period, the brightness contrast between fingerprints and background is increased, and the fresh and aged latent fingerprints on the paper surface are noninvasively detected and shown by using the fluorescence imaging technique. The study provides experimental guidance for the application of thermal treatment and fluorescence imaging techniques in the field of latent fingerprint detection.

    The effect of irradiation angle on detecting apple sugar by near infrared spectroscopy is discussed, and the best irradiative way of light source is obtained. An apple is selected as the object and sugar content of the apple is measured. The apple sample is irradiated in the middle of two lights of 100 W with three irradiation angles (30°, 45°, 60°). The spectra are collected using diffuse transmittance and the partial least squares regression model (PSL) is established. When the light angle is 45°, the precision of the model is the highest. The correlation coefficient of the calibration set (Rc) is 0.91, root mean square error of the calibration set (xRMSEC) is 0.57, the correlation coefficient of the prediction set (Rp) is 0.84 and the root mean square error of the prediction set (xRMSEC) is 0.73. The results show that the irradiation angle has certain effect on the model accuracy, and the study provides a basis for selecting the best irradiation angle in the building of actual models.

    The effect of dust particles on the attenuation characteristic of plasma is discussed in three kinds of situation: 1) considering the collision between particles only; 2) considering both the particles’collision and the charging of the charged particles (electrons and ions) on the dust particle; 3) considering the effect of the electrical potential based on 2). Based on the calculation of the attenuation coefficient, the rocket exhaust plume is taken as an example on further analysis and discussion. The attenuation coefficient has a critical value with temperature and pressure, when in the low frequency of microwave band, and the corresponding attenuation coefficient produces a trough. The attenuation peaks appears near the dusty plasma resonant frequency. The distance between the position of the peak value and the resonant frequency is determined by the effect of the temperature and pressure on resonance frequency. At a given temperature, pressure and frequency, the attenuation coefficient of the third is larger than the other two and in the area of the experimental data. So, the effect of the electrical potential impact factor needs to be considered in the calculation.

    Thin films of GexAsySe1-x-y chalcogenide glasses with different chemical compositions are deposited by thermal evaporation from bulk material in various GexAsySe1-x-y thin films. The Raman spectroscopy of GexAsySe1-x-y chalcogenide glass films is studied to understand the influence of chemical composition on internal film structure. The evolution of Raman features in the wavenumber range from 100 cm-1 to 350 cm-1 is analyzed. The Raman features are fitted into different peak-fitting functions. The intensity of Ge-Se vibrational mode at 190 cm-1 increases with the increasing of concentration of Ge and As. With the increasing of the mean coordination number (MCN), the intensity of As-Se vibrational mode decreases. Meanwhile, the two Raman shift modes located at 225 cm-1 and 250 cm-1 gradually merge and extend to high wavenumber for high MCN samples. In addition, in the films with high Ge content, the Raman features in the wavenumber range from 170 cm-1 to 180 cm-1 is caused by the defect modes.
