Ultraviolet (UV) communication system can provide non-line-of-sight links by exploiting atmospheric scattering of light. The analytic expression of the channel impulse response to received signals is derived and then with this expression the channel characteristic is studied. The relationships between channel lengths, inter symbol interference, bit error rate, bit rate and system geometry configuration are achieved. The results indicate that the channel bandwidth mainly rests on the attenuation coefficient, and channel capability is affected by the communication range and attenuation coefficient. Ultraviolet communication system is sensitive to system geometry configuration and has very narrow bandwidth and severe inter symbol interference. It is suitable for low bit rate, short range and secret communications..

Optical interferometer extinction ratio determines the sensitivity of interferometric fiber optic sensor system to a large extent and further determines the range of applications and prospects of interferometer. The outline of the current ultra-long distance optical fiber interferometric sensing system development status, the theoretical analysis of the impact of polarization on the optical fiber sensing system, and a variety of factors which can affect the polarization are given. The squeeze-type polarization controller based on photoelastic effect is used to tune the extinction ratio of the system by providing radial stress to fiber interferometer arm, to tune system polarization state dynamically, which makes it possible to molerate the extinction ratio of a long-distance optical fiber sensing system at one point. A novel tuning method to tune the sensitivity of long-distance fiber optic sensing system is proposed, and the range of dynamic extinction ratio of tuning is 0.21~11.03 dB..

Target recognition algorithm based on two-dimensional (2D) wavelet transform for laser imaging radar is put forward. Firstly 2D wavelet transform of range image of laser imaging radar targets is made; then singular value feature is extracted from approximate part and detail part, gene algorithm is used to optimize parameters of support vector machine (SVM) intelligently; at last, SVM is used to recognize three kinds of ground targets. Simulation experiment shows that, compared with the method which directly uses singular value feature of range image to recognize targets, the average recogniton rate is raised by 3.2% at high carrier-noise radio (CNR) of 20 dB and average recogniton rate is raised by 6.5% at low CNR of 10 dB in this method, and good recognition is gained..

Among phase unwrapping algorithms, quality guide algorithm adopting fringe modulation as parameter can constrain the error in shadow and abrupt areas from spreading globally. Reliability guide algorithm with second-order derivative of unwrapped phase as parameter can conduct the unwrapping path to orient the most continuous direction. In order to combine the merits of the above two algorithms, a hybrid algorithm based on fringe modulation analysis and second-order derivative guide is proposed. Firstly, the algorithm finds out an optimal threshold, based on which the fringe modulation quality image is divided into two kinds of area, "good area" and "bad area". Within the good area, unwrapping process is implemented by adopting flood algorithm, while in the bad area second-order derivative of wrapped phase guiding method is utilized to conduct the unwrapping path to orient the most continuous direction. Experimental results on the wrapped phase map of projected fringe method and digital speckle pattern interferometry demonstrate the robustness and efficiency of the proposed algorithm..

Xu Zhonghua, and Fang Jiaxiong

Crosstalk will lower down the modulation of the output signal of focal plane arrays (FPA), and then degrade the system′s overall modulation transfer function (MTF). With the development of photoelectric devices, using MTF to evaluate the performances of photoelectric devices is becoming more and more popular. Seen from the trend in civil imaging field, MTF will gradually replace typical parameters such as crosstalk and extreme resolution in evaluation of photoelectric devices. And this makes it a dilemma to decide whether to build a dedicated equipment for crosstalk measurement or not. Considering the relation between crosstalk and MTF, their correlation is analyzed qualitatively, starting from the definition and typical measurement method of crosstalk. It is pointed out that the difference between system′s overall MTF with and without crosstalk maximizes at the Nyquist frequency. Based on this, a new method of calculating percentage crosstalk from measured MTF curves of infrared FPAs is got..

A micro-ablation of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is carried out by CO2 laser. The effect of the process parameters on the depth and width of the channel is further studied. The rule of the process parameters how to affect the groove depth and width is obtained by the experimental analysis. The results show that the laser line energy density has an exponential relation with the channel width. Through the experiment, we achieve the experiental formula about the line energy density and groove width and the decisive coefficient R2 is 0.96. When the line energy density is less than 300 J/m, the depth of ablated channel has a linearity relation with the line energy density, but this relation is deviated for the line energy density over 300 J/m. By the law of conservation of energy, a model about the channel depth and line energy density is set up. At the situation of low line energy density less than 300 J/m, the calculated results agree well with the experiment. At last, with optimization of process parameters, we make a fine biochip with width of 170 μm and depth of 180 μm..

By using microstructured chalcogenide fibers, split-step Fourier algorithm and nonlinear Schrdinger equation (NLSE), effects of centre frequency and pulse width of seed pulse on mid-infrared supercontinuum (SC) generation are studied. The microstructured chalcogenide fibers used here have high nonlinear effect and two zero dispersion wavelengths (ZDW). The second ZDW is in mid-infrared, which is helpful to mid-infrared SC generation. There are marked effects of centre frequency and pulse width of seed pulse on SC generation. In numerical stimulation, seed pulses have different frequencies and durations. Mid-infrared SC generation whose input wavelength is near ZDWs is wider than those far from ZDWs. When keeping peak power invariable, frequency spectrum broadened by pulse width is steady, but the shorter pulse can generate smoother mid-infrared SC..

The excitation properties of the surface plasmons (SPs) excited by the metallic parallel-nanorod and U-shaped nanostructures are simulated under the illumination field conditions of pulse plane wave and circular high numerical aperture focal evanescent field using the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. Under the illumination of pulse plane wave, the two nanostructures present the same surface plasmon resonance (SPR) wavelength in the visible range. After that, we simulate the excitation properties of SPs excited by the two nanostructures in the fields of the circular high numerical aperture focal evanescent beam with the same SPR wavelength. The simulation results indicate that the U-shaped nanostructure performs the best local field enhancement and far field transmission ability, which can be used to construct a plasmonic tweezer for trapping nano-particles..
