The Doppler wind lidar was deployed at Beijing Meteorological Observatory from March to April, 2011 and April to May, 2013, respectively.

Laser radar observational case using a modified differential zero crossing method shows a good agreement with radiosonde measurements. The statistic analysis of 167 Zenith-pointing lidar profiles indicates that the averaged frequency of cloud occurrence is 62.9%, which single-layer, two-layer, and three-layer clouds account for 34.1%, 16.2%, and 6.6% of all profiles, respectively. Low, middle, high and deep convective clouds account for 30.2%, 51.4%, 17.3%, and 1.1% of all cloud observations, respectively. The cloud-base height, cloud-top height, and cloud thickness for all clouds are 4.26, 4.99, and 0.73 km, respectively. The occurrence frequency of single-layer cloud is the highest. Among the multi-layer clouds, the thickness of upper level clouds is the thickest, which has same magnitude as the thickness of single-layer clouds during spring in Beijing. Lidar observations are compared with the radiosonde for 61 matched profiles. The validations of the synchronous measurements show that the corresponding correlation coefficients of the cloud-base height and the cloud-top height from the lidar and the radiosonde are 0.86 and 0.83, respectively, and the root mean square deviation are 1.31 km and 1.74 km, respectively. The cloud-base heights from the radiosonde appear systematically higher than those from the lidar..

Wang Tingting, Wang Jiasi, Yuan Yangsheng, and Qu Jun
Based on the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle and Wigner distribution function, the formulas for the propagation factor of anomalous hollow beams in oceanic turbulence are derived and the corresponding numerical calculation and analysis are carried out. The results indicate that the propagation factor of anomalous hoBased on the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle and Wigner distribution function, the formulas for the propagation factor of anomalous hollow beams in oceanic turbulence are derived and the corresponding numerical calculation and analysis are carried out. The results indicate that the propagation factor of anomalous hollow beams will reduce along the decrease of the transmission distance and the increase of beam wavelength; when the transmission distance is fixed，the propagation factor of anomalous hollow beams will reduce at first, then increase with the increase of beam width; and the beams also reduce at first, and it is invariant in the end with the coherence length increased on the same premise. In oceanic turbulence, the propagation factor of anomalous hollow beams is associated with the kinetic energy dissipation rate, the temperature variance dissipation rate, and the salinity and temperature change ratio. The propagation factor must reduce gradually due to the increase of kinetic energy dissipation rate and the increase of the temperature variance dissipation rate and the salinity and temperature change ratio. These results are useful for the transmission and application of beams in the oceanic turbulence..

Negative Effects of Distributed Raman Amplification on Long Distance Brillouin Optical Time-Domain Analyzer
Qin Zujun, Liang Guoling, Zhang Wentao, Ye Song, and Xiong Xianming

Results of RIN transmission of the Raman pump show that 1 dB increase in the RIN of the Raman pump leads to about 1 dB decrement in the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the received electrical signal. This undesirable effect can be ignored when the RIN value of the Raman pump is down to -135 dB. Furthermore, results of Brillouin slow light show that compensating the linear loss of the waves in the sensing fiber by DRA results in an increase of position locating error (PLR) induced by Brillouin slow light effect. It′s also shown that, at the same time, point in the detected signal traces obtained at different sweeping frequencies corresponds to different spatial locations on account of PLR. The errors will have a significant negative effect on the reconstruction of the 3D Brillouin spectrum and the accurate extracting of the Brillouin frequency shift of the sensing fiber..

The principle of the far field distribution measurement of space laser communication terminals based on the Fourier-transform characteristics of lens is analyzed. The influence of test system with spherical and coma aberrations on the far field distribution of the beam is described and simulated. The simulated results The principle of the far field distribution measurement of space laser communication terminals based on the Fourier-transform characteristics of lens is analyzed. The influence of test system with spherical and coma aberrations on the far field distribution of the beam is described and simulated. The simulated results show that the spherical and coma aberrations both reduce the maximum power at the receiving plane and the rotational symmetry of field distribution is only influenced by coma aberrations. The maximum power changes by lower than 0.2% with the root mean squares (RMS) developed. The measurement system is analyzed with Zemax-EE software. The analyzed results demonstrate that the RMS aberrations of the test system are below 0.02λ. The wavefront error of a long focal off-axis Cassegrain optical system is less than 0.0001λ in the working wavelength (800~1700 nm) and good diffraction-limited quality is obtained in full field. The experimental results indicate that the maximum dusky ring dimension error is less than 2.5% compared with the theoretical values. These results prove the feasibility of the far field distribution measurement system..

The direct road sementation in the images causes low accuracy and cannot rule out inferences such as residential areas. A road extraction method based on saliency analysis for high-resolution remote sensing images is proposed. The feature map of residential areas and roads is obtained by automatic seymentation. A saliency map of residential areas is obtained using the human visual system. The feature map of residential areas is generated by segmenting the saliency map. Finally, the roads are extracted by the logical exclusion OR operation of the two feature maps. Experimental results show that the proposed method can remove the inference residential areas effectively and extract roads perfectly. It has both theoretical and practical significance for road extraction in remote sensing images in the future..

In order to solve the problem of stereo matching at the depth discontinuities, low textured regions and repetitive structures incidental matching error, a stereo matching algorithm based on image segmentation and improved adaptive support weight is proposed. the initial matching cost that combines the color similarity, euclidean distance similarity, user-defined inter color correlation similarity and gradient similarity is defined. The mean shift algorithm segment matching pixel is used at different depth regions in order to refine the matching cost. Meanwhile, in the process of cost aggregation, the new cost aggregation is calculated based on compare transform matching pixel by ranking transform in stereo image pairs in order to solve the influence of brightness and noise difference between the stereo image pairs, so a more accurate disparity result can be acquired. Finally, the algorithm is tested by Middlebury stereo benchmark on the VS2010 software platform, and the results show that it has better performance than other local matching methods, and its robustness is very strong and has higher accurate matching rate..

According to comparing laser spot image and grey scale distribution The laser disturbing effect under the different F number of optical system has been investigated in the experiment. We measure the noise grey value and its distribution probability of CCD output image under the dark background and no laser disturbing. According to comparing laser spot image and grey scale distribution under the different F numbers, it is found that the pixel number of different grey scales linearly increase with the gradually decrease of F number, not exponentially or logarithmically. At last, the diffraction pattern of pentagonal stop is effectively simulated based on the theory of Fraunhofer diffraction. The simulated results show that laser spot image is just the diffraction pattern of stop at the large F number. The research results can provide technical support and theoretical reference for evaluating laser disturbing effect of electro-optical imaging system under the different F numbers..

A ranging experiment for a cooperative target at about We demonstrate a practical femtosecond laser absolute ranging system. High update rate and high precision arbitrary distance measurement can be realized based on nonlinear optical sampling between two free running polarization maintaining femtosecond fiber lasers. A ranging experiment for a cooperative target at about 2 m distance is demonstrated. A 3.3 μm ranging precision at 2 kHz update rate is realized. The ranging precision can reach 0.8 μm at 100 Hz update rate by averaging of continuous measurements. The ranging ambiguity is 2.08 m, which can be removed by introducing a coarse measurement with about 1 meter precision, resulting in an arbitrary ranging with micrometer precision. Due to the usage of all-polarization maintaining fiber based femtosecond laser sources, this ranging system is advantageous of high environmental stability, high compatibility, and maintenance free operation, which is attractive for a number of applications, such as large-scale manufacturing, aerospace engineering and remote sensing..

The microstructure of Fe-based cladding coating and bonding interface, phase composition, element distribution characteristic and diffusion behavior at the interface are investigated by optical microscope (OM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), respectively. The results show that the bonding interface are complete to cellular dendritic crystal growth, the main phases are composed of (Fe,Cr) solid solution and a small amount of (Fe, Cr) 7C3, Fe2B and Fe0.9Si0.1 compound. Mechanical vibration energy causes dendrite Fe0.9Si0.1 discrete from dendrite internal to interdendrite, and a large amount of (Fe,Cr) solid solution remains in the dendrite internal. Higher mechanical vibration energy leads to better element diffusion in laser molten pool. Meanwhile, the effect of vibration amplitude and frequency on the elements distribution and grain refining at the bonding interface front are also different. Increase the frequency is beneficial to the directional dendrite growth and increase the amplitude is beneficial to the dendritic dispersed distribution at the bonding interface front 40 μm scope. Increase amplitude is more advantageous to the Si and Cr element diffusion at the bonding interface..

The microstructure and phase constitution of the melted layer are analyzed by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The microhardness, and wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the melted layer are tested by Vickers microhardness tester, scratch testing machine and electrochemical workstation, respectively. The results show that the melted layer consists mainly of regular columnar dendrites with a significant fine-grain strengthening effect in the water-cooling condition. The phase constitution is altered by the laser melting process, that is, the substrate is mainly consisted of α-Mg and the interdendritic network intermetallic compound Mg7Zn3 while Mg7Zn3 phase partially decomposed into Mg2Zn3 phase during the laser melting process. In comparison to the substrate, the microhardness of the melted layer is enhanced obviously. The peak hardness of the melted layer is 120.4 HV, which is about twice of that of the substrate. The tribilogical property of the melted specimen is improved with a 59.8% wear mass loss of the substrate.The corrosion resistance of the alloy is slightly decreased with the corrosion potential of the melted layer (-1.4455 V) in comparison to that of the as-received alloy (-1.4262 V)..

Chen Lie, Wang Jun, Liu Dun, Zhai Zhongsheng, Yang Qibiao, Lou Deyuan, and Peter Bennett
In order to drill hole on the damping materials of nitrile butadiene rubber, a 1064 nm nanosecond laser is used for relevant experiments. Special state of rubber material in this process is observed, and the changing law of its state under the conditions of different pulse width is investigated and analyzed. The resultIn order to drill hole on the damping materials of nitrile butadiene rubber, a 1064 nm nanosecond laser is used for relevant experiments. Special state of rubber material in this process is observed, and the changing law of its state under the conditions of different pulse width is investigated and analyzed. The results show that honeycomb ablation state appears on the inside of the hole due to the effect of heat and oxygen erosion in the air. And as a result, the increasing velocity of oxygen diffusing into rubber material, oxidation reaction of the rubber in heat affected zone is aggravated, and oxidative denaturation of rubber is occurred. The diameter and depth of the hole that drilled by laser with shorter pulse width are larger, owing to more powerful shock wave generated by instantaneous higher temperature and higher energy density with time. Under the condition of drilling hole with longer laser pulse width, the energy of laser can be accumulated on the inside of the hole. Ablation of rubber in this area is more serious. For the sake of reducing the influence on the performance of rubber by ablation and aging, pulse width of laser should be as short as possible. At the same time, some auxiliary measures should also be adopted to decrease the area of heat affected zone, such as external cooling, injecting protective gas, and so on..

The effect of heating rate on recrystallization nucleation site, recrystallization grain growth rate and recrystallization grain distriThe effect of heating rate on recrystallization process of laser solid forming (LSF) GH4169 superalloy is investigated by changing the heating rate of the sample during heat treatment. The effect of heating rate on recrystallization nucleation site, recrystallization grain growth rate and recrystallization grain distribution are analyzed experimentally. The results show that the lower residual stress of the inner part of each laser scanning path as the low heating rate can hinder the recrystallization process, so in order to make the sample recrystallization the heating rate must be higher than a critical value. With the increasing of heating rate, the recrystallization nucleation site changes from the only overlapping regions of two adjacent laser scanning paths to both the overlapping regions and the inner regions of laser scanning path, and this is beneficial to the uniform distribution of recrystallization grains. Furthermore, recrystallization grain growth rate increases with heating rate increasing within the parameters used in this experiment..

From the perspective of orientations, nonlinear refraction and nonlinear absorption for KDP crystal are performed by the single Z-scan method at the wavelength of 532 nm. Based on the application of the KDP crystal, the relationship between nonlinear optical parameters and direction has been proved in the picosecond laser pulse. Under the experimental conditions, it is shown that nonlinear refraction can be clearly observed, but no obvious nonlinear absorption phenomena. Self-focusing effect has been discovered in KDP crystal. Then, nonlinear refractive index γ（n2） and nonlinear susceptibility χ(3)k are calculated through the relative theory. The results show that the nonlinear optical parameters γ（n2）and χ(3)k for KDP crystals can be affected by orientations, and the values are small for phase-matching directions (I and II types)..

The method of using near-field intensity entropy of the output laser beam to reflect the small-scale self-focusing development in laser beam is proposed. Then the variation regular pattern of near-field intensity entropy with the development of small-scale self-focusing is studied by numerical simulation. Using this regular pattern, an early-warning method is given for the obvious small-scale self-focusing happening in intense laser facility.

The four-level tripod atoms are studied in the scheme by dressed-state atom and collective-mode approach. On two-photon resonance, two strong coherent fields induce the depopulation of a coherent superposition state of two lower states, which leads to quantum beat between the cavity modes. While the two strong coherent fields dress the atoms, the system is simply reduced to a standard EIT model, in which the laser transition, the coherent coupling, and the spontaneous decay constitute a successive population transfer channel to recycle the laser electron. It is for the very mechanism that the cavity modes oscillate with high intensities and exhibit squeezing..

Before detection of THz wave, the first task is to adjust the quarter-wave plate and make the polarized light beam of equal intensity when femtosecond detection light goes through the Wollaston prism, that is to say that the output differential current of the photodiodes is zero. At present, the most common method of adjusting the quarter-wave plate is manual regulation through the observation with the naked eyes by virtue of the experience of operators, so the regulation accuracy is very low. An autobalance device which can make the s polarized light and p polarized light generated by Wollaston prism have the same intensity is developed. The operational amplifier circuit, voltage conversion circuit and analogue / digital (A/D) conversion circuit are used to process the differential signaling of the two photodiodes, the single chip microcomputer is adopted to control rotation of the quarter-wave plate driven by a stepping motor, and the optical balance can be reached fast. The balance precision of 0.9° can be achieved by the developed autobalance device..

By theoretical calculations, the refractive index decrease of the iron-doped lithium niobate crystal which is induced by the high power ultrashort pulse laser (0.33 mJ, 10 ps at 527 nm) about 10-4. After the relaxation of a few nanoseconds, the index decrease is reduced to 10-5. In the experiment, the same ultrashort pulse laser is used, which is flattened and its intensity distribution is spatially shaped into a right triangle, to irradiate the iron-doped lithium niobate photorefractive crystal, resulting in rectangular prism, thus 1053 nm signal light pulse through the instantaneous photorefractive prism is deflected.
