The output wavelength of the lidar can be tunable continuously in the range of 192~2750 nm. The optical splitting system of the lidar is composed of rotatable gratings and circular apertures. By adjusting the diffraction angle of the rotatable gratings, the lidar can receive the return signal at the specific wavelength. The photomultiplier tube and InGaAs detectors are used to transform the optical signal into electric signal in the corresponding wavebands. Subsequent data acquisition and processing are performed by data acquisition system and PC. Numerical simulations are performed with the standard atmospheric model. The detection ability of the lidar in the different wavebands is verified by the simulation results. The lidar is of important significance for fine detection of microphysical properties of near-surface aerosols..

FENG Yan, ZHANG Jin, ZHANG Zhen, ZHANG Hua, and LI Yu-long
An innovative weighing sensing unit using optical fiber Bragg grating sensors was developed. Based on lever cantilever with an adjustable fulcrum, the weighing range and sensitivity can be adjusted. During the differential operation of the shifts of Bragg wavelength, the shifts of Bragg wavelengths caused by the temperAn innovative weighing sensing unit using optical fiber Bragg grating sensors was developed. Based on lever cantilever with an adjustable fulcrum, the weighing range and sensitivity can be adjusted. During the differential operation of the shifts of Bragg wavelength, the shifts of Bragg wavelengths caused by the temperature fluctuation can be compensated. As a result of theoretical analysis, there is a threshold for the value of the distance between the fulcrum and the brace. When this distance equals the threshold, weighing sensitivity will be zero. Experimental results show that the average linearity is larger than 0.998 and the average relative error between the theoretical weighing sensitivity and the experimental weighing sensitivity is 6.46% within the range of 0~200 grams of force..

Theoretical analysis indicate that the fiber core located at the edge of the cladding greatly enhances the residual stress. Under CO2 laser exposure,the long period fiber grating experiences a high quality. Moreover, the fiber grating is sensitive to polorization property due to the asymmetrical structure, the polarization dependent loss value of the long period fiber grating is as high as 20.8dB at the resonant wavelength of 1 553.3 nm. Sensing experiment reveals that it can distinguish the orientation of the curvature by the resonant peak showing a red or blue shift. The fiber grating experiences significant sensitivities of 2.37 nm/m－1 and 1.80 nm/m－1 with the micro-bending range of 0~1.235m－1 for +y and －y axis directions. The proposed sensor has the advantages of simple structure and high sensitivity. It could be used in struction health monitoring applications including roads and bridges..

XUE Meng, LIU Kun, WANG Tao, CHANG Peng-xiang, JIANG Jun-feng, and LIU Tie-gen
A single-mode fiber surface plasmon resonance refractive index sensor based on U-shaped structure was designed. The sensor is fabricated by coating the gold nanometer layer and the TiO2 modulation layer on the surface of single-mode optical fiber whose cladding is partiallyremoved and then isbent into U-shape. The impaA single-mode fiber surface plasmon resonance refractive index sensor based on U-shaped structure was designed. The sensor is fabricated by coating the gold nanometer layer and the TiO2 modulation layer on the surface of single-mode optical fiber whose cladding is partiallyremoved and then isbent into U-shape. The impact of different bending radius and thickness of TiO2 on the sensing performance was studied by using finite element simulation software COMSOL Multiphysics. Through analyzing four different bend radii(R=0.3 cm,0.5 cm,0.8 cm,1 cm), we found that with the increase of the bending radius, the surface plasmon resonance signal intensity increases and the peak shifts to shorter wavelength slightly. The performance of the sensor with different thickness of the TiO2 modulation layer from 0 to 40 nm was studiedunder the condition of bending radius of 0.5 cm. With the increase of the thickness of the TiO2 modulation layer, the surface plasmon resonance peak shifts to longer wavelength and the sensitivity of the peak to the analyte refractive index increases significantly. The sensitivity of the sensor in the low refractive index region (nd=1.333) reached 5 959 nm/RIU and the sensitivity of the high refractive index region (nd=1.383) reached 11 092 nm/RIU at the bending radius of 0.5cm and the thickness of the TiO2 modulation layer was 40nm. Compared with the results of no modulation layer, the sensitivities increase by about doubled..

After that, another duralumin prototype VCM (aperture 135 mm, central thickness 8mm and initial curvature radius 2 807 mm) was fabricated and tested. Because of the improvement of the fabrication process, the initial surface figure accuracy of the second mirror is superior to λ/80 (632.8 nm). When a pressure of about 0.07 MPa is imposed, the saggigus variation reaches nearly 37 μm and the corresponding surface figure accuracy is still superior to λ/40 (632.8 nm) with spherical aberrations removed.

Taking into account the measured distributions of the pump and laser beamA physical model of diode-pumped alkali vapor lasers, which combines the rate equations of population densities, the axial differential equations of pump and laser power, the radial differential equation of temperature, is reported in this paper. Taking into account the measured distributions of the pump and laser beam radii and the hypothetical distributions of the intensities, this model not only reproduces the observed peak temperature of 346℃, 480℃ and 696℃, which respectively correspond to pump powers of 50 W, 220 W and 370 W for the lasing condition, but also reproduces the observed peak temperature of 321℃, 414℃ and 609℃ corresponding to the same pump powers for the non-lasing condition. A wide region of heat source density of quenching is observed. For the lasing condition, quenching contributes approximately 85% of the total heat energy, whereas for the no-lasing condition it occupies over 95%, showing that quenching is very important and non-ignorable in temperature calculation..

The results show that the laser damage characteristics of different materials are different. The damage threshold of alumina ceramics is the highest, while the damage threshold of silicon nitride ceramics is lowest. Compared with metal materials, the damage thresholds of engineering ceramics are higher than those of stainless steel and aluminum alloy. Due to the difference of the melting point and thermal conductivity, different kinds of ceramic material have different damage morphologies. The difference of laser damage threshold of different materials was analyzed theoretically; the absorption coefficient of ceramic materials is less than metals. The absorption coefficient have an effect on the energy deposition area and heat diffusion rate influencing the evolution process of the temperature, which ultimately affect the laser damage threshold value and damage characteristics of materials.The experimental results provide guidance for the selection of mechanical support materials for high power laser devices..

Theoretical calculation of the damage threshold 0.21 J/cm2is in line with the experimental model measured threshold 0.20～0.25 J/cm2. When the carrier density reaches the critical value Ncr, the excitation of the plasma causes the surface reflectance to rise rapidly. With a larger of laser fluence from 0.5 J/cm2 to 3.0 J/cm2, ablation depth increases to about 1.1um, and while the pulse width from 150fs reduced to 50fs, ablation structure become more similar to the oval ablation profile. What’s more, the effect of different hole structure on the laser beam propagation inside the micro-hole of silicon wafer is obtained by numerically using FDTD method. It’s found that the position of the maximum laser intensity point would be closer to the hole enter by decreasing taper angle from 79℃ to 49℃, which finally cause the excitation of plasma more likely. Besides, under different polarization beam irradiation, the energy distribution at the bottom of the hole induced different special ablation structures. The results show that by increasing laser fluence and decreasing pulse width, the ideal initial pore structure can be obtained so that the subsequent pulse energy is concentrated at the bottom center making the drilling efficiency higher..

The crystal structure, morphology and photoluminescence of the synthesized SrSO4 phosphors were investigated by the X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope and spectrophotometer, respectively. It was found that the resultant SrSO4 microcrystals are co-doped with both the bivalent Eu ions and the trivalent Eu ions. The typical size of the SrSO4 microcrystals is in the range of 1~10 μm. Under the ultraviolet excitation of 325 nm, the synthesized SrSO4 microcrystals can give off strong purplish pink photoluminescence, which consists of a broad emission band centered at 379 nm and three narrow emission peaks at 575, 591 and 612 nm, respectively. The bandstructures and defect level of SrSO4 are calculated with density functional theory in the framework of local density approximation, and the photoluminescence mechanisms of the bivalent and trivalent Euco-doped SrSO4 are discussed in terms of the calculated bandstructures. The broad emission band centered at 379 nm can be attributed to the transition 4f65d1→ 4f7 of the bivalent Eu ions in the SrSO4 matrix while the three sharp emission peaks at 575, 591 and 612 nm can be assigned to the transitions of trivalent Eu ions from its excited state 5D0 to its ground states 7F0, 7F1 and 7F2,respectively. It has demonstrated that bivalent Eu and trivalent Euco-doped SrSO4 can be utilized as an efficient purplish pink phosphors..

It respected for the Kerr effect to induce refractive index changes and numerically investigated respected for using the finite-difference time-domain simulation. The all-optical modulator is realized with low intensity of pump light. The diameter of metal nano-wire, the thickness of buffer dielectric layer and the intensity of pump light have a significant influence on the reflectance spectra of all-optical modulator. The coupling performance of the all-optical modulator is improved by allocating the parameters of metal nano-wire and buffer dielectric layer reasonably. The results show that the mode coupling ability of the all-optical modulator is optimal when the diameter of metal nano-wire and the thickness of buffer dielectric layer are 40 nm and 1 800 nm, respectively. There is a linear relationship between the change of reflectivity spectrum and pump intensity, which the correlation coefficient is 0.998 1. The reflectance of incident light reaches 0.82 by applying the intensity of pump light as low as 0.5 GW/cm2, which can realize all-optical modulation of optical signal to light very well..

These devices achieve good focus and blazing effect. By calculating the grating transmittance at different grating thickness, grating teeth and grating groove width, the transmittances of the three wavefront manipulation devices are all above 97% after selecting the combination of suitable grating parameters. Compared the performance of silicon-based planar structural devices with conventional structural devices, the lens and the cone lens of the planar structure, the Full Width at High Maximum of the focal spot is approximately equal to that of the conventional lens and cone lens, but the peak intensity is increased to 1.64 and 2.35 times. The peak intensity of the planar relative to the conventional blazed grating is increased to 3.77 times..

And the reproducibility of the measurement system is improved by this new method as well. The principle of multi-angle dynamic light scattering measurement of short carbon nanotube is studied, and an experimental measurement system is set up. The signal collecting and processing system is developed by LabVIEW based on a photon counting. The Calibration test is carried out by standard short carbon nanotubes suspensions. The measurement results of the diameter and the length of the samples at 90°, 100°, 110°, 120°, 130° and 150° are compared with that at the single angle (i.e. 90°). It shows that the repeatability error of the diameter and the length measured by the multi-angle depolarized dynamic light scattering method are 6.27 % and 6.36 % respectively, and better than those of the single angle method (i.e. 13.22 % and 12.45 %)..

Then, the influence way of angular error on inversion results in two approaches, namely, weight coefficient and baseline are studied by simulation of six groups of unimodal particle size distribution system (82 nm, 104 nm, 350 nm, 431 nm, 816 nm and 865 nm) and three groups of bimodal particle size distribution system (137/601 nm, 242/750 nm and 470/895 nm) and measurement of 306/974 nm bimodal particle size distribution system with different angular error. The results show that the influence of angular error on inversion results is derived from the baseline factor and weight coefficient factor simultaneously. The influence of weight coefficient factor on peak error and performance error is much bigger than the baseline factor. There is one exception that for the unimodal narrow distribution of small particles, the influence of baseline factor on peak error is a little more than weight coefficient factor, but the influence of weight coefficient factor on performance error is bigger than baseline factor..

X-ray communication(Xcom) is a method which applying X-ray as carriers to transmit information in space. After the concept of Xcom was produced by Dr Keith, many institutions and scientists have conducted researches on Xcom and achieved fruitful results. However, most researches are focused on the key devices of Xcom, X-ray communication(Xcom) is a method which applying X-ray as carriers to transmit information in space. After the concept of Xcom was produced by Dr Keith, many institutions and scientists have conducted researches on Xcom and achieved fruitful results. However, most researches are focused on the key devices of Xcom, such as the X-ray emit source, the antenna and the detector, there is nearly no theoretical model for space X-ray communication. In this article, we focused on the power transmission process of space Xcom. To begin with, we analysised the signal channel and transmission model based on the additional gussian white noise(AWGN) model and free space attenuation, established the power transmission equation and link model. Then we analysised the error source of Xcom, established the noise model based on single photon detectors and also given the main noise sources. In other words, we can built mathematical relationship between the power of X-ray source, transmitting distance&speed and bit-error-ration (BER). Finally, we testified the signal photons of Micochannel Plate(MCP) detector output against various anode voltage and modulations. The results accord well with the theoretical analysis, and the power transmission equation and BER model can explain the Xcom process well too. Based on this transmission theory, we can calculate the emit X-ray power against various transmission distance and BER level respectively. As a result, three key parameters which judging a wireless optical communication system have been given as well as the theoretical model. Simulation results showed that with a constant photons flow, Pulse Position Modulation(PPM) has a better BER level than On-Off Keying(OOK) modulation. When the transmission distance is about 10 km, in order to achieve BER less than 10－6 level, the power consumption of X-ray is less than 1mW. According to the power transmission model, in order to improve the BER level of Xcom system, we need a lower dark current detector, an advanced modulation and more transmitting power. These theoretical and experiment results could provide foundations for optimizing the core parameters of XCOM system in our future works..

A time-varying plasma model with dust particles was constructed by using the constitutive relation. The absorption coefficient, reflection coefficient and transmission coefficient of the dust plasma sheath with time were simulated. The numerical results show that the growth rate of electron density is easily affected by the rise time, and the reflection coefficient of the plasma decreases with the increase of the rising time. The increase of the absorption coefficient is related to reducing the rise time and frequency, increasing the electron density and the density of the dust particles.In addition, the thickness of the plasma plate, the density of the dust particles, and the electron density are direct proportional to the absorption coefficient. When the operating frequency of the wave up to 1 500 GHz, only the electron density is less than 1020 m－3 can pass through the plasma plate. The alteration of the effective collision frequency barely affects the reflection coefficient of the time-varying dusty plasma as the collision frequency is smaller than 3.5×1011 rad/s. The results provide some technical support for the potential applications of spacecraft in the atmosphere of terahertz communication and dust plasma diagnostics..
