In this paper, by investigating the terahertz(THz) waveforms emitted from different lengths of filaments via THz time-domain spectroscopy system(THz-TDS), superluminal propagation of THz wave during filamentation was observed.

It implies that the refractive index of the THz wave is smaller than the unity within the filament region, and thus the THz pulse may propagate inside the filament. This hypothesis is supported by further numerical simulation, which demonstrates THz eigenmode inside the plasma filament..

Based on the analysis of the influencing mechanism of the non-linearity, the interference and the installation tilt error, a speckle tracking system was introduced to remove the influence by local fitting and real-time calibration according to the linear relationship between the actual value and the measured value. Al2O3/PEN sample was used to experimentally verify the designed spot tracking system platform. The results show that the linear correlation coefficient maintains in a range of 1±0.001 5, the linearity standard error is reduced to 0.3 μm/40 mm, the maximum error is less than 16 μm/40 mm and the measurable range can be increased to the stroke of the module, 200 mm in this work. This method is effective, flexible and practical for position detection applications especially under feeble light condition and for large measuring range..

The modulated infraThe atmospheric carbon dioxide(CO2) is a greenhouse gas which plays a dominant role in climate changes and also in some other fields. The remote sensing system for vertical profiles of atmospheric CO2 was based on non-dispersive infrared gas detection technology, which can transmit data by wireless. The modulated infrared radiation source and dual-channel detector were employed in the system which take advantage of ultra-low consumption MCU to realize automatic control and acquisition. The method of deducting the fluctuation and background noise of signal was proposed, which made the relative error at 0.29% of the detection. And the time-sharing operation mode was adopted to resolve electromagnetic interference(EMI) from high frequency transmitter of radio sounding to the operational amplifier of the CO2 detection. The digital radio sounding of widely used in meteorology and CO2 detection were integrated highly. The comparison analysis between self-made CO2 remote sensing system and LI-COR LI7500 were carried out, preliminary results show that the variation trends of atmospheric CO2 have good consistency from the two detection systems; the correlation coefficient was 0.89 from 24 hours data. It can be indicated that the self-made system has good constancy and accuracy. The self-made system offers another choice to exploit to measure the vertical profiles of atmospheric CO2..

The infrared spectral data collected from a variety of chemical warfare agents and organic gases are high-dimensional data. Centralizing before reducing dimension was used for feature extraction to capture the essence of more information it contained. Since the infrared spectrum of the mixed gas was non-linear and non-Gaussian signal, this method regarded non-Gaussian as independence measure to separate each component as independent component. In order to meet real-time requirements, its iterative process was optimized based on the traditional fast independent component analysis(FastICA) algorithm and extreme learning machine(ELM) model was applied to quantitative analysis. Experiment results show that the iterations of optimized method reduces compared with the traditional method and mean square error of quantitative analysis is E=2.392 6×10-4 and regression coefficient is R=0.999. And the optimized method improves the isolated efficiency of separating pure substances spectra from mixture substances without affecting the separate accuracy..

With this technology, a fiber probe was used to detect the pump light leaking from the cladding with fiber′s coating on and stripping. It′s found that there was a linear relationship between leaking light power and pump light power, and the proportionality factor was measured. Therefore, it does not need to cut and fuse the active fiber for many times to get the best length of active fiber, and it can save the measuring period and experiment expense a lot. Two types of fiber probes were used, one was taper fiber probe and the other was ramp plane fiber probe. The testing results of low light using these two fiber probes were given, and it′s found that taper fiber probe is better than ramp plane fiber probe. In order to check the accuracy of fiber probe, a laser test has been done. By testing the power change before and after cutting off optic fiber, and by testing the power via fiber probe at the same position as the cut off point, it proves that fiber probe can well predict the residual pump light..

In fact, besides the DOF extension, this technique has the potentials in realizing super-resolution imaging, which is rare to be investigated in existing literatures. On the one hand, the introduction of phase mask makes defocus invariance of optical transfer function(OTF) possible and the dramatic decrease of modulus of OTF alleviates the aliasing effect owned by most digital imaging systems. In this case, a better image data suitable for super-resolution imaging could be provided. On the other hand, the prominent expansion of point spread function(PSF) allows us to obtain the real sampled PSF corresponding to any specific pitch size in a digital way using the ideal continuous optical PSF whose sampling interval could be considered as unlimitedly small. Therefore, based on these two characteristics, an amplification based single image super-resolution reconstruction algorithm was especially designed for wave-front coded imaging system and an experimental prototype camera has been fabricated to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm. The results demonstrate that the extended DOF which is more than 20 times original DOF has been obtained and at least 3X super-resolution reconstruction effect could be achieved. Besides that, the quality of reconstructed image approaches the diffraction limited level..

The statistic characteristic of optical fiber channel with noise was analyzed. In order to find the capacity of the dispersionless optical fiber channel, one first needs to statistically model the communication channel. The Schrodinger equation added noise was modeled. The stochastic differential equations(SDEs) in polar coordinates were built by using It? formula. The Fokker-Planck equation of SDEs were presented and the probability density function(PDF) was given. As a result of the Kerr nonlinearity and its interaction with amplified spontaneous emission noise, the amplitude and phase channels correlate with each other and the statistics of the received signal are non-Gaussian.

First, Field-of-view(FOV) is the key performance indicator to evaluate a head-mounted display (HMD) in areas such as virtual reality. In order to overcome the difficulties of a sharp increase of optical system aberrations with the increased FOV, a wide FOV HMD optical system with double freeform surfaces was proposed. First, the principles of the double ellipsoid HMD which could achieve large FOV and low distortion were analyzed, and the reason of the aberration correction limitations of the double ellipsoid HMD was pointed out.

According to the imaging processing of staring system, sampling process of detector was analyzed in the time domain to study aliasing effect on image quality using a quantitative method in the frequency domain. Simulation experiment on aliasing phenomenon of periodic and aperiodic objects based on the reason of aliasing effect was completed. Simulation experiment show that aliasing distortion phenomenon will be exist in periodic objects, but there will be zigzag stripe in aperiodic objects. It can be concluded that aliasing distortion is small in low frequency and noise tends to mask the target pattern, but aliasing distortion is serious in high frequency where aliasing is dominant, this has a certain reference value for eliminating the influence of aliasing confusion and system parameter design..

High-power laser was split to certain number of beams by fiber splitting and output with fiber-array. The off-axis three-mirror was designed as normal telescope system, and its focus length was the divergence angle A novel emitting system of fiber-array 3D laser imaging using off-axis three-mirror system was proposed. High-power laser was split to certain number of beams by fiber splitting and output with fiber-array. The off-axis three-mirror was designed as normal telescope system, and its focus length was the divergence angle divided by the core diameter of the fiber, while the F number in image space was determined by the Numerical Aperture(NA) of the fiber. The total field of view was the focus length divided by the length of the fiber-array. The fiber-array was set on the focus plane of the off-axis three- mirror system, and rays were traced in the opposite way of design. The example system realized divergence angle as 20 μrad of 51 fiber beams, and it showed that the divergence angle of every fiber beam satisfied the target value well and the footprint between the neighbouring beams has good uniformity on the target surface. Besides, this emitting system was suitable for any number of laser beams within the total design field of view..

ALaser Doppler Velocimetry(LDV) is able to measure the velocity of vehicle accurately for high precision navigation in the area of aerospace. The key of the measurement is to detect the Doppler signal successfully, so weak Doppler signal detection is one of the most important technologies due to the presence of noise. An adaptive signal detection algorithm in frequency domain was proposed. Noise was leached from useful signal by band stop filter and the adaptive threshold could be obtained according to the statistical properties of the left noise. Comparisons of simulation and experiments with the fixed threshold algorithm were taken, and the results show that the frequency domain adaptive threshold detection is an effective method to improve the performance of LDV. Under the condition of keeping the low Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR), the Doppler signal can be completely detected when the Signal-to-Noise Ratio(SNR) is higher than -9 dB, and it is insensitive to the intense of noise, simple and applicable in many area..

Digital control system for higher laser power stability
Li Yingying, Jiang Zhikun, and Wang Anqi
Three Raman pulses are usually adopted to make cold atomic beams to split, reflect and recombine when doing cold atom interferomertry experiments. The stability of Raman laser power is as important as frequency, because it causes the Rabi ratio to change with it. When the Rabi ratio changes, the final phase difference Three Raman pulses are usually adopted to make cold atomic beams to split, reflect and recombine when doing cold atom interferomertry experiments. The stability of Raman laser power is as important as frequency, because it causes the Rabi ratio to change with it. When the Rabi ratio changes, the final phase difference between the two separated atom beams changes as well. It is a great disturbance for interferomertry signal stability and also the signal to noise ratio. The effect is more than acceptable when it comes to atom interferometer used as high precision acceleration measurements. Keeping laser power stable can improve phase noise a great deal. Thus a digital control system was designed for higher laser power stability using an acousto-optical modulator(AOM) as a controller, and the feedbacks from the AOM were applied to compensate the power variation outside the cavity of a laser. After realizing the identification with the AOM and a simulation model for it based on the identification results, an PID controller was programmed in the Labview language. Experimental results show that the the laser power instability can be reduced from 0.19% to 1.67% with the method under the measurement time of 1 h. And it works really well for the cold atom interferometer system..

The proposed measure is proved to be available in object tracking mathematically. Thus, it is called the High-Dimension Data Clustering(HDDC) tracker. The frameworks of proposed method are as follows. First, Harris detector is utilized to extract the corners both in the template and the tracking region. Second, these feature points are grouped via their position information separately. Third, affine matrixes between the template and the tracking region are calculated among their respective feature groups. At last, high-dimension data clustering is carried out to measure these matrixes, and the feature points corresponding with the similar matrixes that are tracked targets. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that HDDC is efficient on measuring affine deformed objects and outperforms some state-of-the-art discriminative tracking methods..

Here, the basic unit cells of the dielectric metamaterials are subwavelength silicon pillars, they have lower loss and thus have higher efficiency compared with the metal based metamaterials. As different silicon pillars with different geometric parameters and orientation angles will have different transmission amplitude and phase when the terahertz wave passes through them, nearly arbitrary spatial amplitude and phase distributions can be achieved by designing the geometric parameters and orientation angles of the silicon pillars at different positions, which allows to fully control the shape of the transmitted terahertz wavefront. In experiment, three different meta-gratings were designed using the silicon based structures in which the diffractive orders and their numbers can be arbitrarily controlled. Such dielectric metamaterials are very easy to design and fabricate, making them very promising in developing low-loss terahertz functional devices..

In this work, a basic setup for quenching the non-linear GaAs PCSS was proposed which consists of two laser beams. The second laser beam was delayed about 100 ps for quenching the PACD after the first beam. In the experiments, the PCSS with 12 mm electrode gap can be biased up to 32 kV with 0.9 kA switching current. Good reproducibility of waveforms about 230 times at 20 kV is achieved with 14mm PCSS when trigger laser is orders of magnitude of tens milli-joules.

Results show that in summer the occurrence frequencies of cirrus clouds become higher while the occurrence frequencies of water clouds become lower in the Arctic. Cirrus clouds top temperatures mainly distribute in the 230- 272 K(that is -43℃ to-5 ℃). The cirrus clouds top height distribute from 2 to 8 km, and has a highest occurrence frequency in the range of 4.5-6 km. The cirrus clouds optical thickness is less than 10. The cirrus clouds effective radius distribute from 5-40 μm and most probable appear in the range of 10-20 μm. The relationship of cirrus clouds effective radius and cirrus clouds top height has a positive correlation in the Arctic, while in mid-latitude this relationship is opposite. The higher the cirrus clouds top height, the greater the cirrus clouds effective radius is. In the Arctic, with the increase of the latitude, the cirrus clouds occurrence frequency, cirrus clouds top height, cirrus clouds effective radius and cirrus clouds optical thickness increase, while the cirrus clouds temperature decreases..

When conventional integrators are utilized to reject such high frequency and narrow band disturbance, the benefits are quite small; even worse, the system may fail to operate normally due to the amplification of jitters. On the basis of observed data, its frequency characteristics were analyzed. With the help of the Smith predictor, one effective and stable technique to design a controller was proposed on account of the peak frequency and bandwidth of the jitter. The relationship between controller parameters and filtering features were discussed, and the robustness of the controller against changing parameters of the control object was investigated. Results show that the variance of one axis aberrations caused by optical axis jitters can be reduced by about 60% as a result of exploiting novel controllers, which compensates the deficiency of conventional controllers..
