    As an artificial micro-structure that can flexibly control the light field at the sub-wavelength scale, metalens has received extensive attention in the field of optical imaging in recent years. In the design of the metalens imaging system, the metalens is usually designed only according to the focal length and working wavelength, without considering the imaging process, which often leads to poor imaging quality of the whole system. In order to improve the imaging quality, a joint optimization method is proposed to achieve high-resolution imaging based on metalens by incorporating the two processes of metalens design and image reconstruction algorithm into the design process of the imaging system. This method not only optimizes the parameters of the metalens to obtain a ideal point spread function, but also achieves high-quality image reconstruction up to 2 times the resolution of the input image.

    Aiming at the problem of insufficient positioning accuracy of precision positioning platforms with large travel distances, a novel nanometer accuracy positioning system based on feedback of heterodyne laser interferometry with non-coaxial beams is proposed. The system consists of a composite feedback of heterodyne laser interferometry with non-coaxial beams and high-precision grating scale, which retains the advantages of high-resolution and large travel distance of high-precision grating scale, and combines with heterodyne laser interferometry with non-coaxial beams to form collaborative positioning which eliminates the influence of installation errors and deformation of grating scale on positioning accuracy, and improves the positioning accuracy under large travel distances. The system adopts predictive fine-tuning positioning technology based on BP neural network, which to some extent improves positioning efficiency. The experimental results show that within the travel range of 100mm, the system’s axis bi-directional positioning accuracy can reach 28nm and its axis repeated positioning accuracy can reach 26nm. Through predictive positioning, when the positioning end threshold is set to 20nm, the system’s positioning fine-tuning time can be shortened from within 1.65s to within 0.6s. At the speed of 5mm/s, the tracking error of the system can reach 100nm.

    The satellite-Earth laser communication has the characteristics of long communication distance and complex transmission channel. In order to establish a stable and reliable satellite-Earth laser communication link, it is necessary to build a large-aperture ground station. The point position distribution and structure size of the flexible support of the 500mm large aperture primary mirror in the ground station are studied. This allows the primary mirror assembly not only to meet the stiffness requirements, but also to have flexibility to mitigate its own dynamic errors. The optimization process of optical, mechanical and thermal coupling is established on Isight platform.The accurate mirror RMS value is obtained by fitting the surface shape with Zernike polynomial. Taking the RMS value as the optimization objective, the optimal solution of the flexible support point position and the optimal solution of the dimension parameter of the flexible rod are obtained. After the optimization, the temperature range of the primary mirror component is extended by about 30℃ and when the pitch Angle changes, the RMS value of the primary mirror decreases by about 2nm.The main mirror shape meets the requirement of index less than 0.08λ.

    Digital holographic imaging is a key technology to obtain wave front information of 3D objects, and obtaining high-quality holograms is the first condition. However, due to the constraints of the imaging sensor and the influence of the experimental environment, the obtained digital hologram is noisy and has low resolution, which affects the SNR in the holographic reconstruction. To overcome this constraint, a method based on deep learning is used to improve the hologram quality and signal-to-noise ratio. The results show that the algorithm can be used in the acquisition of multi-scale hologram, and obtain high quality hologram reconstruction effect is better, to reduce speckle noise, and compare the three kinds of loss function in the performance of network training.

    Chemiluminescence combined with tomography (CT) can measure the three-dimensional information of the combustion flow field. In order to study the reconstruction effect of tomography, two different iterative algorithms including algebraic iteration (ART) and maximum likelihood expectation maximization (MLEM) are implemented. The reconstruction performance of the two algorithms is compared under different projection layout, different flow fields and different noise levels. The simulation results show that the non coplanar layout can effectively improve the reconstruction accuracy when the number of projections is small; When the number of projections reaches 9, the root mean square errors of ART algorithm and MLEM algorithm are both less than 2%, and MLEM algorithm is slightly better; MLEM algorithm has stronger anti-noise ability and is more suitable for reconstruction in complex experiment environment; However, the time cost of ART algorithm is superior. ART algorithm is 56.57% faster than the MLEM algorithm for 9 projections. The experimental results show that both algorithms give good reconstruction results, and the MLEM algorithm has higher computational accuracy than the ART algorithm. With more voxels divided in the flow field to be measured, the time cost consumed by MLEM is about 8.37 times higher than that of the ART algorithm.

    In 3D shape measurement technology, phase demodulation is a key step to analyze deformed fringe patterns to get object surface information. Phase shift method is a non frequency domain analysis method, which requires three or more fringe patterns and is only applicable to static measurement. However, phase demodulation methods based on frequency domain analysis, such as Fourier Transform, Windowed Fourier Transform, Wavelet Transform and Hilbert-Huang Transform, only need one fringe pattern to extract phase, which are easier to operate and more automatic, and suitable for dynamic phase extraction. The status of several phase demodulation methods are researched, and the basic principle of the phase demodulation methods and its demodulation effect on the phase are deeply analyzed, and finally summarizes the characteristics of the phase demodulation method based on frequency domain analysis and its prospects for the future.

    Aiming at the problem that the positioning precision of received signal strength based indoors positioning methods for visible light communication system is low, a new indoors positioning method for visible light communication system based on deep neural networks is proposed. In this method, the visible light channel estimation technique is adopted to measure the indoors distance, so that the problems of insufficient stability and reliability of the received signal strength are resolved. Besides, a deep neural network is designed to learn the distribution characteristics of the distance vectors of the photodiode in offline phase, in order to avoid the problem that the instable light signals lead to error growth. In online phase, the target is positioned based on multiple distance vectors, thus the positioning precision can be improved further, at the same time, the time efficiency meets the requirements. Simulation results show that, in the indoors scenario, the proposed method achieves better positioning precision than traditional triangulation methods and received signal strength based positioning methods.

    Based on the photorefractive media, the propagation properties of hollow sinh-Gaussian beams are investigated by using the finite difference method. The intensity envelopes of hollow sinh-Gaussian beams with different beam orders are obtained, and the hollow region becomes larger as the increasing of beam orders. The influence of beam orders and nonlinear parameters on the propagation pattern of beams is analyzed. When the beam order is 2, the hollow sinh-Gaussian beam presents the periodic focus-behavior and the focusing intensity ratio gradually becomes weaker within a certain transmission distance. With the increasing of nonlinear parameters, the first focusing distance decreases gradually, but the focusing intensity ratio increases. When the beam order is 3, the focus-behavior of beams presents only once and the beam shows spotty pattern. When the beam order is 5, the first focusing distance and the focusing intensity ratio increase further. All the results show that the propagation properties of hollow sinh-Gaussian beams can be controlled flexibly by adjusting beam orders and nonlinear parameters.

    Automatic segmentation of retinal vessels facilitates the diagnosis and treatment of retina-related diseases. The task is challenging because of the complex structure of retinal vessels and interferences in fundus images, such as low contrast, uneven illumination, and pathological exudates. To address the lack of global semantic dependency modeling and the semantic gap between encoders and decoders in the U-Net for this task, an Intra- and inter-scale augmented U-Net (I2A-Net) is proposed. I2A-Net is designed based on two perspectives: for the intra-scale encoding-decoding layer, a Spatial Enhanced Self-attention mechanism is integrated in each coding layer to enhance the global spatial aggregation capability, and further developed into the decoder to alleviate the information loss caused by up-sampling operations; For inter-scale encoding-decoding layer, a novel Cross-scale Fusion module is introduced to boost the semantic interaction with other layer by dynamically leveraging the rich feature information of the deepest layer, thus further alleviating the semantic gap between encoder and decoder. The experiments on three retinal standard datasets, DRIVE, CHASE~~DB1 and STARE, demonstrate that I2A-Net can effectively segment the retinal vessel structure, and compared with Baseline, I2A-Net can yield superior performance in all evaluation metrics.

    Due to the influence of processing, installation and adjustment of nasal endoscopes in China, the resolution and aberration of endoscopes in actual use are significantly worse than the design level. Through tolerance analysis, it is concluded that the eccentric tolerance has a great impact on the results. Based on the above problems, the installation and adjustment error on the basis of a nasal sinus objective are simulated with a field angle of view of 80 ° and an entrance pupil diameter of 0.2mm, It is proposed that a phase plate is added in front of the protective glass of the objective lens to compensate for the decline of imaging quality caused by the assembly and adjustment error without changing the mechanical structure of the post assembly and adjustment nasal sinus objective lens; It can be seen from the design results that after adding the phase plate, the system transmission diagram increases from 30LP/mm equal to 0 to 170LP/mm greater than 0.2; Using N3 discrimination plate to detect the system resolution, about 18 groups of objects can be distinguished, and the object resolution is 15μm. It can be seen that the design based on the compensation phase plate can significantly improve the image quality without changing the original design.
