    The increased industrial emissions have worsened the water environment and resulted in the endangerment of marine life. Traditional water body monitoring technology was unable to meet the real-time, fast and accurate application requirements. In order to implement more effective monitoring of the water body environment, various research units have begun to use remote sensing technology to obtain water body information. Aiming at the technical requirements of water monitoring, an off-axis three-reflection optical system is designed with a focal length of 84.5mm, a diameter of 20mm, and a field of view of 36°×6°. The reflective system can meet the requirements for wide spectrum coverage of space remote sensing. The primary and third mirrors of the system adopt sixth aspheric surfaces, and secondary mirror adopts quadric surfaces and the Offner compensator, which takes the primary mirror as an reference, is designed to generate aspheric waves to perform zero compensation test on the aspheric mirror.

    The G-S hologram can be used to design spatial optical filter. Due to the refractive index difference between the medium and air, the phase of spatial light will change when it passes through the holographic plate. Based on the height modulation phase of each pixel photoresist, a 2.5D gray-scale holographic spatial optical filter was designed. The photoresists with different heights were prepared by gray-scale electron beam lithography, and the patterns were etched onto the silicon wafer by dry etching. The electron beam lithography process, development parameters and etching process were optimized. The high diffraction efficiency spatial optical filter was fabricated and characterized.

    Medium wave infrared devices are developing from monochrome and bicolor to multispectral, metal micro nano structure is the core device to realize the function of medium wave infrared spectroscopy. In order to research the transmission spectrum characteristics of metal micro nano structures in mid infrared band and realize the modulation of transmission spectrum. Based on the principle of Surface Plasmons (SPs), Finite Difference Time Domain method (FDTD) is used to simulate the transmission spectra of thin-film metal micro-nanohole arrays. The influence of the shape and size of the holes, the period of the hole array, the thickness of the metal film and the metal material on the spectral transmittance characteristics of the incident light in the mid-infrared 3.0~5.0μm band is analyzed. By simulating different structures, it is found that the transmittance is mainly determined by the size of the hole. Changing the period of the array can modulate the transmission peak position. The transmittance increases rapidly as the thickness of the metal film decreases, and the metal material Ag is easier to transmit infrared light. Further based on the radius of the circular hole (square hole side length), the array period and the transmission peak position, the least squares method is used to fit the design relations corresponding to different structural models, at the theoretical level, the modulation of the transmission spectrum of the metal micro-nano structure in the 3.0~5.0 μm band is realized, which provides a theoretical basis for the design of multi-channel aperture filter and spectrum detection equipment.

    Transparent laser ceramics are expected to be the gain medium of new high-power-solid-state lasers instead of single crystal due to their unique superior properties. Therefore, the preparation of transparent ceramics with high optical quality, high laser efficiency and high output power has become the hot point of current research. However, sintered polycrystalline ceramics have a certain amount of grain boundaries and pore defects. The relationship between the porosity and the performance of ceramic lasers and the latest research progress in controlling the porosity of ceramic materials are interviewed. Studies have found that the porosity has a greater impact on the scattering coefficient, transmittance, laser threshold, and laser slope efficiency of laser ceramics. Controlling the ceramic preparation process and optimizing the preparation process can reduce the porosity of the laser ceramic material, thereby improving the optical performance of the laser ceramic material.

    In order to simplify the three-dimensional measurement and solve the baseline limitation problem in traditional stereo vision methods, a method based on single-camera micro-angle rotation combined with neural network for three-dimensional measurement is proposed. The method gathers two-dimensional image data by rotating a single camera at a small angle. Additionally, the three-dimensional spatial coordinates are established by moving the chessboard calibration target with an electric sliding table. Based on the idea of camera linear imaging model, where the projection matrix represents the mapping relationship between image coordinates and 3D coordinates is replaced by BP neural network. It obtains the direct mapping from 2D coordinates to 3D coordinates and realizes 3D measurement under micro baseline. The experimental results show that the absolute error of the proposed method is 0.0864mm compared with the distortion measured by the traditional method. This method integrates neural network into the single-shot vision field, which can make up for the defects of traditional vision measurement methods in micro baseline scene.
