Based on the three methods, non-Kolmogorov turbulent phase screens were simulated. Phase structure functions were calculated and compared with the theoretical results. In addition, the accuracy and efficiency of different methods were also analyzed. It shows that phase screen created by FFT method has the drawback of lacking low frequency, by adding subharmonics the phase screen can be compensated which also leading to the decreasing of simulation efficiency; phase screen created by Zernike polynomial method has the drawback of lacking high frequency, by using much more orders of Zernike polynomials the phase screen can be compensated which also leading to the decreasing of simulation efficiency; phase screen created by Fractal method is relatively good at both low and high frequency and the simulation efficiency is also high. In addition, the number of subharmonics and the order of Zernike polynomials under same condition of accuracy are related to the power law of non-Kolmogorov turbulent spectrum. As the spectral power law increases, the number of subharmonics increase and the order of Zernike polynomials decrease, and phase screens created by fractal method are more accurate..

Statistic results of density and optical path difference were calculated from the density field, and the laser characteristicCompressible large-eddy simulations were carried out to study the aero-optical effects caused by the flow field of a transverse hemispherical/cylindrical structure at Mach numbers of Ma=0.5-0.7. Statistic results of density and optical path difference were calculated from the density field, and the laser characteristics in far field were computed based on the phase screen method. It is found that the root-mean-square of density distortion and the root-mean-square of optical path difference increase with free stream velocity and aperture size. The one hand, with Mach number varying from 0.5 to 0.7, the root-mean-square of density distortion gain 90 percent when the aperture diameter is fixed to 0.5m, and the root-mean-square of optical path difference gain 90 percent when the aperture diameter is fixed to 0.25 m. On the other hand, with the free stream velocity fixed to 0.6, the two parameters gain 4 times respectively when aperture diameter increases from 0.25 m to 0.75 m. The laser Strehl Ratio decreases with free stream velocity and aperture size. It decreases from 0.236 to 0.045 when Mach number varies from 0.5 to 0.7 with aperture diameter fixed to 0.25 m, and it reduces 90 percent when aperture diameter increases from 0.25 to 0.75 m at 0.6 Ma..

The volume ratio of moisture to air was about 0.1%-4% and most part water vapor concentration in the troposphere. The influences of atmospheric attenuation become more serious along with the development of the optics-electron detecting technology. The water vapor in the atmosphere was the main factor and uncertain parameter to affect atmospheric attenuation. Infradred wavelengths was commonly used in photoelectric detection, but water vapor makes great effect on the radiation absorption due to its high concentration. Raman lidar has become the useful advantaged tools to measure water vapor. The system structure and specifications of Raman lidar developed by introduced. The measurement results show that this lidar can take measurements of water vapor over 8 km height at night and water vapor in boundary layer in day time as well as the tropospheric aerosol in day and night continuously. The obtained results are better consistent with radiosonde data in terms of the water vapor, which assures the reliability and availability of the Raman lidar for water vapor observation..

Li Fei, and Lu Houbing

Bit error rate(BER) of an atmospheric optical communication system can be improved by using an adaptive detection threshold, which is difficult to implement in real time. As a sub-optimum method, optimizing the threshold to a constant value according to statistics of parameters was proposed. Assuming multiplicative Gaussian noise and lognormal scintillation, the optimum constant threshold of an atmospheric optical communication in turbulence channel was analyzed. The result of numerical analysis was compared with experimental data obtained in weak turbulence. Results of experiment and numerical analysis show that optimizing constant threshold is necessary and the performance degradation compared to adaptive thresholding is acceptable. Neglecting aperture-averaging effects, the dependence of the optimum constant threshold on log amplitude variance and average received signal power was analyzed and the influence of other parameters was proved to be negligible. Based on previous analysis, a non-linear model was proposed to estimate the optimum constant threshold in practice..

Liu Yuan, Xie Ruida, Zhao Lin, and Hao Yong
As on-orbit missions of satellites are increasingly complicated, the demand for satellites’ attitude determination accuracy is becoming higher. Star sensor is the most accurate attitude sensor on the satellite, so calibration of the star sensor is critical to further improvements of satellites’ attitude determination. As on-orbit missions of satellites are increasingly complicated, the demand for satellites’ attitude determination accuracy is becoming higher. Star sensor is the most accurate attitude sensor on the satellite, so calibration of the star sensor is critical to further improvements of satellites’ attitude determination. However, conventional on-orbit method which take advantage of inter-star cosine angle to solve the calibration problem of large field-of-view (FOV) star sensor was not sufficient due to the complexity of lens distortions. Motivated by this observation, a novel technique for the large FOV star sensor’s calibration based on machine learning theory was presented. The technique used the created features to build complex distortion models. These created features were redundant, so Principal Components Analysis (PCA) was employed to reduce the useless features. Moreover, two methods were employed to judge the efficiency and the effectiveness of the calibration algorithms. The results show that machine-leaning based on-orbit calibration method can achieve remarkable improvement when the distortion of the large FOV star sensor is relatively huge. The calibration error is less than 0.8″ under the working condition in the paper. Compared with current algorithms, this algorithm can achieve a higher accuracy and is more robust..

Based on the Doppler frequency shift theory and the coordinate transformation method, the general error model versus non-orthogonal and misalignment angles of 2D gratings was established. Then the effects of these error angles were quantitatively studied, and the cosine and the cross-talk errors of both directions were simulated and analyzed. The results illustrated that the geometrical errors were independent from the diffraction orders, diffraction times and the optical subdivision multiple, just determined by the error angles and the 2D displacement. Meanwhile, the cosine errors could be induced by all the error angles, but the cross-talk errors were mainly influenced by the non-orthogonal and raw angles. Besides, the cross-talk errors were more serious than the cosine errors, which is the dominant component of the geometrical errors. A planar displacement measurement system with 2D cross-grating was constructed, and the theoretical analyses and the numerical simulation were verified with the 10 mm square displacement measurement..

The main factor which causes the problem of DRR with laser gimbaled seeker is the disturbing torque. Aiming at the problem caused by DRR, a real time method for compensating disturbing torque based on Strong Tracking Unscented Kalman Filter(STUKF) was proposed.

The simulation resultIn order to improve the accuracy of centroiding for high precision miniature star tracker, a method to calibrate the imaging sensor pixel displacement using heterodyne laser interferometry was proposed. And the star position error due to imaging sensor pixel displacement was studied by simulation. The simulation results show that the accuracy of star position can be enhanced from 0.008 pixel to 0.002 pixel by compensating pixel displacement when pixel displacement obeys uniformly distributed over the interval (-0.02, 0.02) pixel. When the additive Gaussian noise in the star image has a normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 5.5, if pixel displacement obeys uniformly distributed over the interval (-0.02, 0.02) pixel, the accuracy of star position can be enhanced from 0.020 pixel to 0.018 pixel after compensation; if pixel displacement obeys uniformly distributed over the interval(-0.04, 0.04) pixel, the accuracy of star position can be enhanced from 0.026 pixel to 0.018 pixel after compensation, which are 31% better than the accuracy without compensation. Simulation results show that calibrating pixel displacement which can significantly improves the star position accuracy can be used as a new method to develop high precision miniature star tracker..

In order to solve the problem that integrated high-power LED light source cannot be applied directly in the field of illumination, a downlight reflector and a lens was designed by using the source-target map based on the energy conservation law in non-imaging optics. These two types of optical devices were simulated in Tracepro software, which obtained a good uniform round lighting spot. The simulation results show that the illumination uniformity is reduced with light emitting area increase. The illumination uniformity of the round lighting surface is above 95% when the source size is 1 mm×1 mm. The illumination uniformity is decreased to 85% when the source size is increased to 10 mm×10 mm. This research is conformed with the higher uniformity standards of indoor lighting design..

Zhou Pengwei, Lu Tian, Zhang Yiyi, Li Ningchuan, and Li Tingan
In order to overcome the drift of Mach-Zehnder(MZ) modulator operating point by the temperature, pressure and other factors, it is necessary to compensate the voltage shift of DC bias. The previous harmonic detection method based on small dither signal has the advantage of high bias point positioning accuracy. However,In order to overcome the drift of Mach-Zehnder(MZ) modulator operating point by the temperature, pressure and other factors, it is necessary to compensate the voltage shift of DC bias. The previous harmonic detection method based on small dither signal has the advantage of high bias point positioning accuracy. However, a certain noise will be introduced due to the additional small signal in the loop, which will affect the purity of the radio frequency signal. The power detection working point bias method is easily influenced by the power vibration of light source, which reduces the stability and positioning accuracy of the bias point. In this paper, a MZ modulator bias point control technique was proposed, combining the average power and the harmonic detection. The optimal operating point was determined by the harmonic detection, and the ratio of the optical power before and after the electro-optic modulator was used as the reference value in feedback control. It improves the positioning accuracy and the noise performance of the bias control. Meanwhile, it overcomes the influence of the disturbance of laser power. In this method, a scheme realizing the arbitrary adjustment of bias points by controlling the ratio of optical power was also proposed and large range flexible bias point control was realized. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme has the advantages of high positioning accuracy, good stability and wide bias point, which meets well with the requirements of the MZ modulator bias point control..

And a new concept of relative sensitivity was introduced here in order to assess the influence of inspection state to the quantitative identification of defect boundary shape. Through analyzing the relative sensitivity, it was found that the inspectability of the irregular inner-wall surface defect was different in the different inspection states, and the inspection carried out at the time with maximum inspection surface temperature difference was more desirable than that in the steady heat transfer state. Both of the feasibility of the infrared diagnosis with Ansys secondary development and the validity of the relative sensitivity assessment were verified by the numerical experiment..

They also play an important role in IR imaging guiding simulation test application. The field radiometric calibration methods for infrared detecting system with fixed focal length are analyzed at first. Three kinds of methods were briefly introduced and compared, and the applicability of different methods was pointed out. In order to compare the characteristic change of three methods, short distance radiometric calibration, a certain distance radiometric calibration and radiometric calibration using of extended area blackbody and collimator were used in this research. And then the experiments by different radiometric calibration methods were investigated. The short distance radiometric calibration results show that it isn′t suitable for infrared reconnaissance and warning detecting system. The certain distance radiometric calibration results show that it needs further calculation of environment radiation, path radiation and path transmission. Then, the environmental parameters is loaded in MODTRAN soft ware to predict environment radiation, path radiation and path transmission. But it′s difficult to obtain very accurate calculating results. To measure the target radiation characteristics, radiometric calibration using of extended area blackbody and collimator is necessary.

In the camera, the photo-cathode (PC) was applied with a high voltage fast step pulse with gradient of 2.1 V/ps. The electron pulse generated at the PC was accelerated by a time varying electric field between the PC and the anode mesh, which leads to an energy dispersion of the electron signal. The electrons generated early in time obtain a larger energy. Therefore, the initial electrons transit the drift space between the mesh and the MCP at a higher velocity than those coming later. While the electrons travel through the 50 cm drift space to the MCP, the temporal shape of the electron signal was dilated or temporally magnified due to the time-dilation system. Then, the dilated electron pulse was detected by the gated MCP framing camera. Therefore, the temporal resolution of the framing camera was improved. The camera has three transmission photo-cathodes coated with 80 nm Au. The width of each PC is 8 mm. Both the PC and the MCP were applied with pulse, therefore the laser pulse, the PC pulse, and the MCP pulse should be synchronized accurately. The synchronized process was analyzed. While the PC was applied with dc bias only, the measured temporal resolution of the camera without time-dilation was about 78 ps. While the high voltage fast step pulse was applied on the PC, the temporal resolution was improved to 12 ps. The relationship between the temporal resolution and the synchronized point was also provided..

A method of applying Kalman filtering for molten pool width detection in laser forming process was presented. The vision sensing system collected the images of the molten pool in laser forming process. The molten pool width calculated by image processing was used as a parameter to establish a state equation and a measurement equation. A Kalman filter recursively computed the solution over least squares approaches to equations which were established based on an estimation of the width and the displacement in width. The Kalman filter optimized the estimation of the molten pool width at the next sampling time and reduced the measurement errors caused by the process and sensor noises. Experiment results show that measurement average errors decrease from 0.028 mm to 0.009 3 mm. Experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and great improvement of precision by using the proposed algorithm in the molten pool width detection..

The distributions of temperature, stress, depolarization losses and optical path difference in four amplifier architectures with different Cr4+:YAG parameters were numerically calculated by a three-dimensional finite element analysis and the Jones matrices method. Based on these results of the propsed modelling, it was showed that the properly designed two-layer and three-layer Cr4+:YAG could decrease the heat deposition of the Cr4+:YAG around the gain media, and hence result in a very small transverse temperature gradient (<1.5 K) in the first slab. When the laser beam traveled through the whole amplifier, the average thermal-stress induced depolarization losses and optical path difference for the laser amplifier head were reduced to 0.5% and 0.8 ?姿, respectively. Furthermore, the negative impact of thermal effects on the output beam quality can be vanished by properly designing the number, widths, and absorption coefficients of the multi-layer Cr4+:YAG medium, which are beneficial for the engineering/design of the next generation of high energy, high power lasers..

In this system they adopt a saturated laser co-propagates and two coupling lasers counter-propagate with a probe laser, and the saturated laser can not be in the destructive Doppler state with the probe light. The positions of the coherent hole-burning can be explained by Dressed-state theory. The middle narrow deep hole-burning is induced by the superposition of two coherent hole-burnings. The depth of the coherent hole-burning can be changed by adjusting the reference parameters and the Rabi frequency of the saturated laser. The positions of the coherent hole-burning can be changed by modulating the Rabi frequency of the probe light. By numerical simulation it is found that Rabi frequency of the saturated light plays an important role in slowing the propagating speed. These results may be useful in optical quantum memory and optical quantum information..

The comparison of laser induced damage performance between KrF excimer laser and pulse CO2 laser were investigated. The experimental results indicate that the damage mechanism of K9 glass irradiated by KrF excimer laser and pulse CO2 laser mainly follow the thermal-mechanical coupling mechanism. However, there is apparent difference in damage threshold and damage time. For example, the damage threshold is lower and the damage time is shorter for KrF excimer laser. This can be explained by the difference in wavelength and photon energy between the KrF excimer laser and pulse CO2 laser.

Considering the above reason, a new configuration of frequency tripling is proposed to solve this problem. The frequency tripling crystal is placed In inertial confinement fusion laser driver, ultraviolet laser damage of fused silica lens is an important limiting factor for lifting load capability of the laser driver. Considering the above reason, a new configuration of frequency tripling is proposed to solve this problem. The frequency tripling crystal is placed on the back of the focusing lens, thus the sum frequency generation of the fundamental frequency light and doubling frequency light occurs in the beam convergence path. Incident angle of the convergent beam is up to 36.35 mrad, thus the frequency tripling crystal must have a large acceptance angle for phase matching condition. LBO crystal which also has high damage threshold is employed as the frequency tripling crystal. Theoretical analysis indicates that three tiled LBO crystals with different cutting angles will meet the requirement of phase matching and principle experiments also supported this scheme. By employing this configuration, the fused silica lens will only be irradiated by fundamental frequency light and doubling frequency light and its damage threshold will be improved, thus the load capability of the laser driver will be lifted. At the same time, the limitation of growth size with LBO crystal will be broke through..

Time-resolved reflection Ultrafast carrier dynamics in Al2O3/SiO2 high reflectors was investigated by UV femtosecond laser. It was identified by laser spectroscopy that, the carrier dynamics contributed from the front few layers of Al2O3 played a dominating role in the initial laser-induced damage of the UV reflector. Time-resolved reflection decrease after the UV excitation was observed by pump-probe experiment, and the peak value of the variation of the reflectivity of the probe light changed from 417 nm to 402 nm in 2.3 ps. To interpret the laser induced carrier dynamics further, a specific theoretical model including multiphoton ionization(MPI), avalanche ionization(AI), and the mid-gap defect state was built to simulate the evolution process of the electron density in the conduction band, it pointed out that during the conduction band free electron relaxation process, the mid-gap defect state locating about one photon below the conduction band was formed because of the interaction between electrons and lattice. The initial electron density effect of the mid-gap defect state has important influence to the damage threshold of the Al2O3/SiO2 high reflectors. This model agrees very well with the experimental results..

A ring cavity Tm-doped fiber laser system was built based on a 1 550 nm fiber laser. And, its spectral chacteristics were investigated. With 1 550 nm pump, the spontaneous emission of the 1.6 m long Tm-doped fiber covered a spectral range from 1 800-1900 nm with a 3 dB bandwidth bigger than 60 nm. Inserting an isolatorA ring cavity Tm-doped fiber laser system was built based on a 1 550 nm fiber laser. And, its spectral chacteristics were investigated. With 1 550 nm pump, the spontaneous emission of the 1.6 m long Tm-doped fiber covered a spectral range from 1 800-1900 nm with a 3 dB bandwidth bigger than 60 nm. Inserting an isolator into the ring cavity, narrow linewidth output was obtained with a 3 dB linewidth smaller than 0.2 nm centering at around 1 900 nm. Further adding a tunable FP filter, tunable, narrow linewidth laser output was attained. The laser spectrum was tunable from 1 840-1 900 nm with a broad tunable range reaching 60 nm while maintaining a 3 dB linewidth of only 0.07 nm. In addition, a telecommunication FP filter at the 1 550 nm waveband was also exploited in this ring cavity laser system for wavelength tuning. And, a narrow linewidth, broadband tunable laser output in two seperated spectral ranges was also recorded. Together with the 2 000 nm FP laser system, this laser demonstrates a wide tunable range from 1 820-1 915 nm which is consistent with the spontaneous emission spectrum of the Tm-doped fiber..

All these tests were recorded by infrared video recorder and the pupil size was calculated by the program based on OpenCV. The result shows that steady pupil contraction rate and recovery pupil contraction rate will be larger as the migration from long wave to short wave light source under the same illumination. And the non-visual effect of blue light source is the most significant. Also, steady pupil contraction rate and recovery pupil contraction rate will be larger as the illumination increased under the same light source. And there is a linear relationship between these two pupil contraction rates under the illumination of 10-70 lx with the correlation coefficient of more than 0.95. Two pupil contraction rates have a linear relationship between circadian factor, which shows that the pupil contraction rate could well represent the degree of non-visual biological effect..

Comparisons of terahertz absorbing properties, which were caused by different structures of subwavelength metal split ring resonator, were studied by simulation and experiment. Two split ring resonators which had different split gap types were fabricated. By using Finite Difference Time Domain(FDTD) simulation and Optical Pump Terahertz Probe (OPTP) experimental methods, the terahertz transmittance curves of TM mode and TE mode were investigated when the electromagnetic waves were perpendicular to the samples. The analysis found that in TM mode, the frequency of the absorption peak was inversely proportional to the value of the effective inductance and the effective capacitance. But in TE mode, the similar resonance frequency of the two SRRs were caused by the same length of dipole resonance. In addition, when optical excitation power changed, the experimental result indicates that one-gap SRR is more sensitive than two-gap SRR in TM mode. As the pump light power up to 5 mW, the resonance frequency transmittance of one-gap SRR raised 80% than the pump light condition at 0 mW. But, two-gap SRR only raised 43% when the light condition changed from 0 mW to 5 mW..

On-wafer device-under-test (DUT) structure based on CPW de-embed method was designed according to the equivalent circuit model of the diode. The small-signal S parameters were measured in the frequency range of 0.1-50 GHz and 75-110 GHz. All the parameters of diode model such as capacitances, resistances and inductances were extracted via the test results. Comparison between DC I-V resistances, empirical formula capacitances and high frequency parameters was made. Both of the capacitances and resistances at high frequencies were different from low frequencies. The built small-signal equivalent circuit model of terahertz planar Schottky diode was validated by simulation and the results of model simulation agree well with the DUT S-parameters. Complete equivalent circuit model and the testing method can more accurately represent the working state of the device under high frequency compared with the ideal diode SPICE model and the parameters of the traditional extraction method. This robust method is suitable for Schottky diode model extraction, which is useful for further nonlinear circuit design and optimization in terahertz wave frequencies..

Compared with the traditional separation device, it has the following advantages: (1) the refractive index matching degree of dual-core is high, making the separation length of the corresponding polarization mode is very short; (2) the dual-core are filled with air, which can reduce the absorption loss to THz wave; (3) through the design, making the dual-core perpendicular, thus the refractive index curve of y polarization mode overlap with that of x polarization mode, greatly expanded the scope of bandwidth. Its working bandwidth reached 0.17 THz. In addition, because of its structure is simple and symmetry, the THz fiber is easy to fabricate, which has a high application value in the terahertz network..

In this paper, the periodical surface plasmonic nanostructures were presented, which consist of metal nanostructures on metallic substrate, to enhance absorption rate of ultra-high temperature metal nanostructures. The characteristics of materials′ absorption have been simulated and analyzed by changing different parameters in the range of wavelength 200-4000 nm. The simulation results indicate that there always appear absorption peaks and they reach over 93% at absorption spectrum with all different parameters. The dielectric material, period, depth and size of nanostructure are the main factors for the absorption spectrum. Further, the dielectric material and period of nanostructure also have obvious selectivity characteristics on the position of absorption peak. The study results can provide theoretical foundation for ultra-high temperature surface plasmonic materials absorption characteristics..

In order to investigate the power delivery characteristics of fibers, an optical fiber fixture was designed in the experimental set up, which was useful to alignment of the laser beam. The transmission efficiency and damage threshold of high-peak power density laser pulses with width of 6ns and wavelength of 1 064 nm via both silica fiber and AgI/Ag hollow fibers with core diameter of 600 μm are demonstrated. It is found that, within 10 mm from the focal, the average transmission efficiency of the silica fiber is 76.2%, which were 61.8% of the hollow fiber. 2 mm before the focal, the damage threshold of silica fiber and AgI/Ag hollow fiber are 22.3 mJ and 29.4 mJ. By comparing the results that, AgI/Ag hollow fiber has a higher damage threshold, its transmission efficiency is about 15% lower than the silica fiber, its engineering potential still needs to be further developed..

The results showed that the strain profiles and curvature radius of ZnTe grew on asymmetry(211) surface, are asymmetric along in-plane direction along[1-1-1]and[01-1]. The laser interference measurement result of the ZnTe/GaAs(211) sample conformed to the theoretical calculation with the radius of curvature, which are the same order of magnitude and both are in negative direction, indicating the tensile strain. But for the ZnTe/Si(211) sample, the measurement result showed much difference. The plastic deformation was formed during the high temperature deoxidation process of Si substrate, which produced heterostructure bending with positive radius of curvature. The plastic deformation of Si substrate reduced the bending degree of ZnTe/Si(211) heterostructure, so the thermal mismatch strain was also reduced..
