Xiaoyan Wang, and Gaokui Xu
Accurately extracting the point cloud collection of the target to be measured in the three-dimensional point cloud data is a key issue of the three-dimensional point cloud target recognition technology, and it is also an important challenge in the field of target recognition from 2D to 3D in recent years. The main diffAccurately extracting the point cloud collection of the target to be measured in the three-dimensional point cloud data is a key issue of the three-dimensional point cloud target recognition technology, and it is also an important challenge in the field of target recognition from 2D to 3D in recent years. The main difficulty is to quickly find the correlation function relationship between discrete point clouds. Combining stereo vision and feature matching, a constraint mechanism of target point cloud that can characterize different field of view conditions is constructed, and the original feature matching algorithm is optimized by using stereo vision as the constraint condition. An estimation algorithm based on stereo vision is designed, and recognition rules under different selection ratios are obtained through training and learning. The experiment uses ARIES Lidar to collect point clouds, and selects three typical target states through MATLAB. When the target discrimination is high, the target recognition rate before and after optimization is above 98%. When the target discrimination is low, the restriction conditions of the target boundary after optimization can improve the recognition probability. The position deviation of the optimized point cloud data can reach 0.55 mm, which is 0.19 mm higher than 0.74 mm before optimization. At the same time, the convergence time curve of the optimized algorithm is better than before optimization. The average convergence time above 3000 points is about 8.33 s, which is better than 12.76 s before optimization. In summary, the optimized algorithm has better recognition efficiency..

In order to solve the problem of high-precision tracking of the sun in the process of ship moving, an image tracking system for shipboard sun-photometer(SSP) was constructed by using fisheye lens, gyro-stabilized platform and small-field CCD image sensor. The whole structure of the image tracking system of the shipboard sun-photometer and the design of the optical path of the single-arm probe were introduced. The coarse tracking of the sun in the large field of view by the clock method and fisheye imaging system was described in detail, and then the fine tracking measurement was carried out by the CCD image processing technology of small field of view. Besides, the software tracking algorithm, process and system tracking reliability were given. The image tracking system of shipboard sun-photometer can be automatically tracked and measured on offshore mobile platforms, and the comprehensive tracking accuracy was higher than 1′. The data were compared with the Japanese POM-01 MKⅢ sun-photometer. The results show that the maximum relative error of atmospheric transmittance at 940 nm band is less than 7.6%, and the maximum relative error of water vapor is less than 6.1%. The system can be applied to the shipboard sun-photometer to measure the atmospheric transmittance and water vapor at sea, and can also be used to track the sun on other moving unstable platforms..

In deep-sea exploration, the scattering phenomenon seriously reduces the visual image quality. Existing methods are limited in deep-sea scattering environments with multi-depth or non-uniform illumination. Thus, a deep-sea descattering method based on a depth-rectified statistical scattering model is proposed. The model proposed uses the transmission map to model the depth-constant scattered image, and uses the Gaussian statistical model to estimate the local scattering to obtain the depth-rectified scattering map in each color channel, so as to achieve the accurate modeling of scattering at multi-depth and non-uniform illumination scenarios. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of proposed algorithm, we conducted tests on images of different scenes in shallow sea and deep sea, as well as on video sequences in deep-sea. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms existing methods in subjective quality and objective evaluation..

Firstly, the semIn pedestrian detection, the inability to extract effective features due to pedestrians being severely occluded is one of the main reasons for missing pedestrian detection. To solve this problem, a semantic enhanced guided feature reconstruction algorithm for occlusion pedestrian detection is proposed. Firstly, the semantic feature enhancement module is designed based on the dependency between space and channel, and the global context information is established to enhance the feature of occlusion of pedestrians. Secondly, in order to focus on the visible area of pedestrians, the adaptive feature reconstruction module is used to generate the semantic segmentation map, and adaptively adjust the effective weight of the channel, enhance the distinguishability of pedestrians and background. Finally, the multi-level feature map is obtained by multi-level cascade two modules of semantic feature enhancement and adaptive feature reconstruction, and the multiple features are fusion for the final pedestrian analysis detection. On the challenging pedestrian detection benchmark CityPersons and Caltech, experimental results show that the proposed method achieves the missed rate of 47.28% and 44.04%, respectively, which effectively robust compared with other methods in the detection of occluded pedestrian..

Based on the traditional visual saliency algorithm aAiming at the importance and key of dim small target detection in infrared image processing technology, a detection algorithm based on nonlinear anti noise estimation is proposed to solve the problem of dim small target detection with high reliability and robustness. Based on the traditional visual saliency algorithm and spatial distance processing method, the proposed method uses the nonlinear weighting method to estimate the target and background area. On the basis of not significantly reducing the signal-to-noise ratio of the target signal, the influence of isolated small noise points on the performance of the detection algorithm can be weakened, and the anti-noise performance can be improved. Firstly, the background is predicted by modular and nonlinear mapping, and then the distance correlation factor is integrated to filter out the noise interference. Finally, the binary threshold segmentation is carried out on the processed image to automatically detect and output the target position information to the next level processing software. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can obtain a higher detection rate on the subject test curve under the same false alarm rate and significantly suppress the background noise compared with the advanced weak and small target detection algorithm in recent years; On the test comparison data of local signal-to-noise ratio and background suppression factor, the proposed algorithm can obtain higher detection indexes. The disadvantage is that the algorithm adopts nonlinear processing technology and has low operation efficiency. It needs to further optimize the algorithm to improve the calculation speed and realize the real-time target detection of the algorithm..

On this basis, a signal recognition algorithm based on deep neural network is proposed. First, the echo signal of the dual fiber is used to calculate the correlation coefficient. Then, the threshold range is set by signal characteristics of different event types, so as to improve the signal-to-noise ratio through correlation calculation and threshold filtering. A deep neural network model with three hidden layers is designed, and the purpose of low-frequency noise suppression and signal aliasing demodulation is accomplished by separating the input layer and the related operation layer. The experiments separately test three common intrusion events. The recognition probability of combined events by different algorithms is analyzed. The results show that the echo spectrum shape of the three events has significant characteristics. The recognition probability of the three algorithms is more than 95% for a single trigger event, and the average recognition value of this algorithm is 98.5%. When two events are triggered at the same time, the average recognition probabilities of the three algorithms are 73.4%, 84.5%, and 96.4%, respectively. When three events are triggered at the same time, the average recognition probabilities of the three algorithms are 65.2%, 78.3%, and 93.5%, respectively. It can be seen that this algorithm has a better recognition effect when there is interference and aliasing of signals in optical fiber sensing..

Yurun Wang, and Li Guan
The quality assessment of FY-4A Geostationary Interferometric Infrared Sounder (GIIRS) observation data can promote its application in numerical weather forecast.

Using FY-4A Geostationary Interferometric Infrared Sounder (GIIRS) observation data in July 2020, this paper not only analyzes the dependence on FOV and latitude of noise for all channels of GIIRS, but also analyzes the distribution of bias (observation minus model) with time, FOV, latitude and zenith angle to evaluate the quality of GIIRS observation data. The results show that the noise of GIIRS exceeded the sensitivity index in the bands 727.5-733.8 cm-1, 1107.5-1130 cm-1, 1650-1776.9 cm-1, and the biases and standard deviation of biases of these three bands are obviously larger than other channels. Except for the channels with large noise in long wave, the noise of each column is small in the middle and larger on both two sides when the noise of all bands is arranged in a 32×4 area array. Besides, the distribution of NEdT does not vary with latitude and FOR. So, when GIIRS data assimilation or variational inversion is carried out, the observation error can just consider the NEdT distribution of different channels in 32×4 array. The surface temperature of the numerical prediction model is underestimated in the daytime, which makes the underestimation of simulated radiation, reduces the absolute value of the bias, and makes the bias have obvious diurnal variation. The bias characteristics of middle-wave channels basically do not vary with the columns of 32×4 array, and are mainly related to the rows in the array. The bias correction can be carried out for the rows of 32×4 array, and the correction of latitude band and satellite zenith angle is basically not needed..

In this paper, an infrared dual band-pass filter used at 100 K temperature was developed. Sapphire (Al2O3) was used as substrate, and Ge and SiO were used as high (H) and low (L) refractive index thin films respectively. An infrared dual band-pass filter combined with a shorter wavelength channel (2.60-2.85 μm) and a longer wavelength channel (4.10-4.40 μm) was designed and fabricated. Based on Fabre-Perot (F-P) filter structure, Ge and SiO thin films were deposited by electron beam evaporation and resistance thermal evaporation on the two sides of the substrate. At the working temperature (100 K), the filter transmittance of shorter channel is 91.2%, and the top ripple amplitude is 2.1%; the average transmittance of longer channel is 87.7%, and the top ripple amplitude is 3.8%. Between the two channels (wavelength 3.00-3.95 μm), the cut-off depth is less than 0.1%. The optical performance of the infrared dual band-pass filter can meet the spectral requirements and contribute to more accurate infrared remote sensing and detection..

First of all, according to the detector system of the scanning camera and flight-trace characteristics, this paper analyzes its scanning imaging system and calculates estimated values of such key parameters as optical system parameters, detector parameters, ground resolution and sensitivity of all 9 orbiting satellites' scanning cameras. Secondly, to comprehensively analysis and research on the flight characteristics of space-based infrared system satellites in large elliptical orbits and their ground surveillance missions, this paper proves that the optimal in-orbit operation mode is pairwise synchronization, and the difference between the two satellites in a single orbit is 1/4 period. A comprehensive analysis of the flight characteristics and ground monitoring missions of the space-based infrared system geostationary satellites shows that at least two satellites are in good ground observation positions in the mid-latitudes of the northeastern hemisphere. Finally, according to the radiation characteristics of the ballistic missile plume and the detection parameters of the space-based infrared system scanning cameras, the minimum observation height of the missile plume by all orbiting satellites is calculated and analyzed. The results show that the 40°N latitude area in the Eastern Hemisphere can be monitored by more than 4 satellites at the same time, and some satellite-borne cameras have the ability to detect the ignition timing of ballistic missiles..

According to Tyman-Green interference principle, the phase modulation system is built. Loading on the modulator with a grayscale map of step change, the phase modulation curve of liquid crystal spatial light modulator is drawn by calculating the movement of interference fringes. The cubic spline inverse interpolation method is used to correct the phase modulation curve and to realize the compensation of the phase modulation amount. The diffraction efficiency test system of liquid crystal spatial light modulator is set up, and the experimental verification of the proposed optimization method is carried out and compared with the stochastic gradient descent method. The results show that when the beam deflection angle is 1.56°, 0.78°, 0.39° and 0.19°, the diffraction efficiency of the proposed method can increase by 30% to 40%. Compared with the stochastic parallel gradient descent method, the diffraction efficiency increases by 2%-8%.

Based on the threshold theory of single resonant optical parametric oscillator and the beam energy concentration theory before and after linewidth narrowing, the effects of the beam distribution in the resonant cavity and the different energy concentration levels before and after linewidth modulation on the threshold and optical-optical conversion efficiency under different pump beam focusing depths are analyzed. By using a single fiber Bragg grating to narrow the pump light width, the influence of the pump light width on the output characteristics of the mid-infrared optical parametric oscillator is analyzed under different duty ratios. When the pump power is 18 W, the pulse laser duty cycle is 0.2%, the pulse width is 100 ns, and the pump light width is 2.5 nm, the MgO:PPLN mid-infrared optical parametric oscillator obtains 3.83 μm laser output with a power of 1.42 W, and the optical-optical conversion efficiency is 7.9%. When the linewidth is narrowed to 0.1 nm and the pulse width is 2 ns, the infrared optical parametric oscillator in MgO:PPLN achieves 3.83 μm laser output with the highest power of 1.98 W. The optical-optical conversion efficiency is 11% and the beam quality M2=1.89. At the same time, the laser output efficiency is increased by 39.2% compared with that before linewidth narrowing..

Chenguang Zhang, Heng An, Yi Wang, and Zhou Cao
By using the ways of theoretical derivation and simulation experiments, the quantitative relationship between charge collection ability in pulsed laser simulation experiments is studied when single-photon absorption and two-photon absorption are dominant respectively. The effects of different optical parameters on ioniBy using the ways of theoretical derivation and simulation experiments, the quantitative relationship between charge collection ability in pulsed laser simulation experiments is studied when single-photon absorption and two-photon absorption are dominant respectively. The effects of different optical parameters on ionizing charge concentration are analyzed in simulation experiments, and specific parameters such as laser wavelength, pulse width, energy and beam spot are determined. According to the characteristics of single-photon linear absorption and two-photon nonlinear absorption of pulse laser in Si, the quantitative formula of the ratio of charge generated by single-photon and two-photon absorption is derived. Through the verification experiments of 1064 nm and 1200 nm laser, it is found that the response pulse and the amount of charge generated have a good linear relationship with the pulse laser energy or energy square, and the charge generated by single-photon absorption is significantly higher than that by two-photon absorption when single-photon absorption and two-photon absorption are dominant respectively. It is proved that the ratio of the charge generated by the two wavelengths is approximately equal to the calculated result. The results show that the amount of charge induced by the 1200 nm pulsed laser 1 nJ2 is equal to the amount of charge induced by the 1064 nm pulsed laser 0.039 nJ..

Aiming at the problem of irradiatinTo achieve the sealing requirement, the laser transmission inner channel will add the window with an inclined angle at the end of thin channel, but the temperature rise caused by reflected stray light of the window irradiating the pipe wall will also increase the gas thermal effects. Aiming at the problem of irradiating and heating the straight pipe by the reflected stray light of the sealing window, a coupling simulation model of structure field-gas density field-optical field in the straight pipe was established, analyzing the influence of materials, wall thickness and structural forms on wave front distortion of beam. The analysis results indicate that among three materials of equal quality, aluminum, copper and steel, the beam wave front distortion caused by the aluminum pipe is the smallest, which is only 50% of that of steel and copper; reducing the wall temperature and the beam distortion by adding heat dissipation fins or high thermal conductivity carbon film outside the pipe is not ideal and the wave front RMS value is reduced by no more than 3%; increasing the wall thickness and raising the pipe heat sink are the most effective solutions to reduce the beam distortion, the RMS value of the aluminum pipe outlet reduces from 36.1 nm to 21.4 nm and each order aberration is improved while the wall thickness increasing from 8 mm to 16 mm. The research results can provide a certain reference for the pipe design of inner channel and thermal effects evaluation..

This study proposes a method for extracting elevation control points of spaceborne lasers based on multi-feature parameters constraints in response to the requirements for the accuracy of laser elevation control points in optical image stereo mapping. This method utilizes the vertical structure information of the target objects contained in the full-waveform data to analyze the characteristics of the high-precision laser elevation control points, and realizes the constraint screening step-by-step based on the validity of data, the number of waveform peaks and echo characteristic parameters. The signal-to-noise ratio, kurtosis and skewness are selected as evaluation indexes. Through the calculation, statistics and analysis of the echo characteristic parameters, the thresholds are determined, and finally the valid waveform data that can be used for spaceborne laser elevation control points can be extracted efficiently. Taking the laser data of GF-7 as an example, such six typical feature samples as grassland, gobi, road, water body, sandy, and cultivated land are selected to determine the suitable thresholds of echo characteristic parameters for GF-7. Taking the airborne LiDAR point cloud data in Jiangsu area as a reference to verify and analyze the extraction accuracy, the experiment results show: based on the multi-feature parameters constraint algorithm, using the set parameter thresholds suitable for the GF-7, the valid waveform can be extracted from the original waveform data efficiently and accurately for the production of high-precision elevation control points. Taking the elevation difference of 0.32 m from the parameter data as the elevation accuracy requirement, the average extraction accuracy is 90.34%, and the average measurement accuracy of the extracted laser elevation is better than 0.5 m..

Therefore, the Doppler frequency shift can reach GHz or even hundreds of GHz. The velocity measurement range of photon Doppler velocimetry was limited by the current electrical digital to analog conversion technology. The time-stretched photon Doppler velocimetry used the time-stretched characteristic of femtosecond laser to reduce the signal frequency in the optical domain, which reduced the pressure of photoelectric signal detector and electrical digital-to-analog conversion device. An improved time-stretched photon Doppler velocimetry system was proposed in this paper. The femtosecond pulse was fully widened and spread over the whole time domain through the first stage dispersion fiber, in order to avoid the sampling interruption of velocity signal; In signal demodulation, error compensation algorithm was used to compensate the frequency shift signal, which reduced the system error caused by displacement and increased the effective recording time. Nanosecond laser was used to drive the aluminum film to produce high-speed flyer in the experiment, and the experimental results of the paper speed system were tested in the recording time of 1.2 µs. The repetition frequency 50 MHz femtosecond laser was used in the experiment. The first and second stage dispersion devices used 200 km and 100 km single-mode fiber, forming a scale factor of 2/3. In the end, the experiment showed that the Doppler shift signal of 3.6 GHz was reduced to 2.4 GHz, which was compared with the photon Doppler velocimetry system, and the experimental error was less than 5%. The system will be able to apply velocity measurement under dynamic high pressure technology loading flyer scene, and provides new measures for transient high-speed measurement area..

Firstly, we established the star sensor bracket’s coordinate system by constructing the virtual horizontal axis, then obtained the angle relationship between any two coordinate axes by the theodolite interactive measurement and sequential solving strategy. According to the results, we got the posture transformation matrix between star sensor bracket’s actual coordinate system and the space camera’s coordinate system. By the technical requirements of the star sensor bracket’s installing, we acquired the posture transformation matrix between the ideal star sensor bracket’s coordinate system and the space camera’s coordinate system. Then, we obtained the posture transformation matrix from the actual coordinate system to the ideal coordinate system by bridge of the camera coordinate system. According to this result, the corrective value of bracket for star sensor was accurately solved. The experimental research shows that this method can improve the star sensor bracket’s pointing accuracy from the initial 760″ to less than 10″ after two rounds of iteration, which proves effectiveness of the method. At the same time, directivity calibration and correction of bracket for star sensor can also guide the precise assembly and adjustment of other two components with spatial free angle relationship..

In the digital holographic microscopy measurement, the phase distortion correction method of the low-spatial frequency objects whose lateral size occupies a relatively large field of view was discussed, and the two-step phase subtraction method was proposed to be more suitable for the phase distortion correction of this type of object. The phase distortion correction effects of two-step phase subtraction method, general polynomials surface fitting method and Zernike high-order polynomials surface fitting method were compared and analyzed through the experiment of a micro-step standard sample with a width of 55 μm and a height of 65 nm. The analysis results show that the relative error of the average height of the micro-step after the distortion is corrected by the two-step phase subtraction method is 1.1%, which is smaller than other methods and has a better distortion correction effect. In addition, the microfluidic chip with a channel width of 80 μm was used as the sample to detect the three-dimensional shape of the micro-channel, the fracture defect and defective defect on the surface of the channel. The quantitative results show that the width of the fracture defect is 14.1 μm and the depth is 431.7 nm. The defective defect has a width of 33.6 μm and a depth of 295.1 nm. The experimental results show the image-plane digital holographic microscopic system provides a new way for the rapid and non-destructive measurement of microfluidic chip microchannels and surface defects, which is of great significance for the quality evaluation of microfluidic experimental systems..

The methods of measuring laser far-field parameters mainly include array detection method and camera imaging method. However, the current measurement and analysis of laser atmospheric transmission effect basically use array detection method. Because the detector array target detectors cannot be arranged uniformly and tightly due to the limitations of space physics and R&D costs, this will cause the distortion of the sampling spot and the far-field spot parameters cannot be accurately measured. Aiming at this problem, a set of laser parameter measurement system based on diffuse reflection imaging method is designed in combination with the high resolution of the camera. The minimum measurement resolution of the system is less than 0.39 mm, and the average deviation of the centroid position is 0.05mm, the uncertainty of the power from the measurement spot to the target is better than 10%. The system can effectively measure the tracking accuracy and target power of the laser emission system, and has accumulated a certain theoretical basis and experimental data for analyzing the laser atmospheric transmission effect and analyzing the performance of the laser emission system..

The front and rear photosensitive imaging screens were respectively divided into grid arrays of n rows and n columns. Combining the image 2D coordinates which were obtained in real time by industrial cameras and the spatial 3D coordinates which were measured by a total station to obtain the 2D-3D mapping relationship of each grid corner point on the photosensitive imaging screen, the coordinate point cloud data were acquired. Next, the 3D coordinates of the coordinate point cloud data are converted to the target coordinate frame according to the three common point coordinate frame transformation algorithm, which can determine the positional relationship between the camera and front/rear photosensitive imaging screen. And then the positional relationship between the front and rear photosensitive imaging screens was solved by the grid indexing method. In order to evaluate the accuracy of target attitude measurement, the static repeatability and the absolute measurement accuracy evaluation experiments were designed. The experimental results show that the static repeatability accuracy of the coordinates is 0.13 mm, the absolute accuracy of the coordinates is 0.93 mm, the static repeatability accuracy of the heading angle is 0.01°, and the absolute accuracy of the heading angle is 0.05°. Therefore, the calibration method can realize the accurate calibration of the pose of two spatial planes, which has the characteristics of simple operation and high precision, and can be used for calibration of visual target with double screen..

To solve the above problems, the three-channel folding of high-dimensional spectral information was carried out to eliminate its matrix effect in the research, and introduced the Residual Network structure (ResNet), which was good in the field of computer vision, to extract the spectral features and predict the corresponding principal component content. In this paper, the full connection layer in ResNET network structure was removed to prevent the sudden increase of model parameters, and the last Softmax classification sublayer of the network was changed into a linear rectification layer for prediction. At the same time, exponential learning rate attenuation and Dropout mechanism were added to make the model prediction results have higher accuracy and generalization ability. Compared with linear support vector machine regression (LinearSVR) and depth separable convolution network Xception, the prediction root mean square error of each main element content of the model decreases by 30% and 17% on average, respectively. The experimental results show that the regression model established by ResNet network shows good prediction characteristics when LIBS technology is used for principal element quantitative analysis of ChemCam spectral data..

Firstly, the compensation capability of ARCC and TSRC (traditional single round compensator) for astigmatism, coma and spherical aberration was compared by Zemax modeling. It was concluded that the ability of ARCC to compensate astigmatism and coma were about twice that of TSRC, and the ability of ARCC to compensate spherical aberration was also significantly greater than TSRC, which verified the advantage of ARCC in low-order aberration compensation; Secondly, the low-order aberration compensation of ARCC was studied, and it was include that the aberration types on DM in ARCC structure was one-to-many or many-to-one with the aberration types compensated to the tested surface. The results show that in practice, four low-order aberration free-form surfaces are compensated and verified by using ARCC and TSRC respectively. Under the same DM stroke variable, ARCC shows more excellent low-order aberration compensation ability than the TSRC..

Convex aspherical mirrors are widely used in reflective optical systems, but high-precision shape measurement technology is always a difficult problem in optical manufacturing. In order to achieve high- precision detection of convex aspheric with small aperture and large asphericity, a null test interference detection Convex aspherical mirrors are widely used in reflective optical systems, but high-precision shape measurement technology is always a difficult problem in optical manufacturing. In order to achieve high- precision detection of convex aspheric with small aperture and large asphericity, a null test interference detection technique based on computer generated hologram (CGH) was proposed. Firstly, the detection principle and method of this technology were described in detail, and the key technical points in the processing of testing CGH and alignment CGH design were given. Then, combined with engineering application, the corresponding CGH was designed and manufactured for convex aspheric with the aperture of 15 mm, the vertex curvature radius of 11.721 mm and its asphericity of 72 μm, and the null test interference detection experiments based on CGH were completed. Finally, the accuracy of the proposed method was verified by cross-comparison with Luphoscan detection technique. This technology provides an effective method for high-precision testing of small aperture convex aspheric and has significant engineering application value..

At present, the radius of curvature of the primary mirror in some large-aperture optical telescopes has reached the order of tens of meters. If the surface of the mirror is tested simply by CGH, the length of the testing optical path is not lower than the length of its radius of curvature. Due to factors such as site sAt present, the radius of curvature of the primary mirror in some large-aperture optical telescopes has reached the order of tens of meters. If the surface of the mirror is tested simply by CGH, the length of the testing optical path is not lower than the length of its radius of curvature. Due to factors such as site size and ambient airflow disturbance, it is difficult to achieve high-precision measurement of the mirror surface under these conditions. In order to solve the problem of high-precision surface testing of large-aperture long focal length optical mirror, a hybrid compensation method is proposed. This hybrid compensation method combines CGH and auxiliary lenses to effectively shorten the length of the testing optical path, and can realize null testing of aspherical mirrors. In the optical path design, it is necessary to effectively optimize the optical design parameters of the hybrid compensation optical path and the separation of the CGH diffraction order. At the same time, the optical path length should be less than the radius of curvature of the aspherical mirror to achieve the purpose of shortening the length of the testing optical path. By testing the EELT main mirror, the simulation test shows that the testing path length of the method can be shortened to less than 1/8 of the length of the radius of curvature of the surface. Designing testing accuracy is better than that of RMS λ/100 (λ=632.8 nm). The above simulation results show that this method can not only realize the shortening the length of the testing optical path, but also achieve the high-precision surface testing of the aspherical mirror..

For the mirror with traditional honeycomb sandwich structure, due to the existence of grid effect in the processing, the thickness of the mirror panel and the honeycomb size are correlated with each other, which seriously affects the lightweight design of the mirror. Aiming at the ultra-light mirror with honeycomb sandFor the mirror with traditional honeycomb sandwich structure, due to the existence of grid effect in the processing, the thickness of the mirror panel and the honeycomb size are correlated with each other, which seriously affects the lightweight design of the mirror. Aiming at the ultra-light mirror with honeycomb sandwich structure, an inflatable balanced processing method to reduce the grid effect was proposed. By using the control variable method to design test, the changes of grid effect under normal processing and inflatable balanced processing were compared. The experimental results show that when the mirror surface precision RMS reached more than 1/10λ （λ=632.8 nm）, there is an obvious grid effect in the normal processing without inflation, but not in the inflatable balanced processing. It could be seen that inflating the inside of the mirror could effectively balance the processing pressure and make the deformation of the reinforced area and the non-reinforced area tend to be the same during processing, so as to effectively reduce the grid effect..

A procesWith the development of infrared technology, the demand for large aperture space infrared optics is increasing. Their manufacturing indexes are approaching the manufacturing requirements of visible optics gradually, which poses a higher challenge to the processing and testing technology of new infrared optics. A processing scheme of ultrasonic milling, robot griding and ion beam polishing was proposed for the manufacturing of large diameter ultra-thin silicon-based infrared lens with high gradient. This method overcame the defects of low efficiency and high frequency surface error caused by single process. In order to avoid the testing error caused by supporting force in contour testing of the aspherical convex side, flexible buffer supporting and three-point forced displacement supporting were applied in rough and fine polishing phases respectively, which effectively solved the supporting deformation problem in the testing of large aperture and high gradient ultra-thin lens. Through theoretical simulation and experimental verification, it was proved that the testing method had good consistency. An improved contour detection method was adopted to achieve accurate separation of supporting error in contour testing, and has effectively improved the limit accuracy of manufacturing. Finally, the machining accuracy of convex aspheric surface with large diameter mm infrared lens reached RMSλ/50 (λ=632.8 nm), which satisfied the design requirements..

Aspheric surface parameters, including vertex radius of curvature, conic constant, and high-order aspheric coefficients participate in optical design, manufacture, measurement, alignment and assembly. Precision measurement for aspheric surface parameters is the basis for manufacture, alignment and assembly. A partial compensation measurement system is proposed based on virtual-real combination interferometer for aspheric surface parameter error measurement. In this measurement system, residual wavefronts are measured by partial compensation interferometry. The interferometer is multiplexed in cat-eye-wavefront positioning method to measure the compensation distance which is the distance between compensator and aspheric surface under test. Aspheric surface parameter errors are calculated by virtual-real combination iterative algorithm. The system only needs to introduce a converging lens into the optical path of partial compensation interferometry, which is easy to align and assemble, and has high measurement accuracy. The effectiveness and accuracy are verified through the measurement of a 4th-order aspheric surface..

The method applies a separated metrology frame, which effectively reduces the influence of each motion module on the measurement accuracy of the system during the measurement process; the probe adopts a four-quadrant interferometry system with integrated array waveplates, which improves the dynamic performance of the probe and is more conducive to the measurement of complex aspheric surface shapes; the motion module with a common reference between the scanning actuator and the multiplexed laser interferometry system is designed to track the position information of the scanning motion mechanism in real time, which improves the accuracy of the scanning motion and enables the measurement of the surface shape. The scanning actuator is designed to track the position information of the scanning motion mechanism in real time to improve the accuracy of the probe motion and make its measurement value traceable to the definition of "meter". The measurement device is built and the surface profile of the standard sphere and aspheric mirror are measured separately. The test results show that the measurement error is less than 0.2 μm and the repeatability accuracy was 70 nm, and the system measurement accuracy reaches submicron level..

The results show that the absorbent impurities inside the small-scale damage of fused silica are the main factors affecting the performance of the components. Before the magnetorheological ribbon contacts the bottom of the damage, the overall absorption and fluorescence distribution of the damage show an upward trend. The damage irradiation process of high repetition rate laser after magnetorheological repair is a process from slow to fast, from impurity to body, and gradually expanding outward from the edge. It can effectively repair the surface after magnetorheological repair, and can be used as the third process of combined repair process. The research results provide a reference for the construction of optical element detection and characterization system..

Because the asphericity of the center is small, the direct testing method of spherical wave is used; while the asphericity of the outer ring is large, the method of sub-aperture stitching and computer generated hologram (CGH) mixed compensation is used for measurement. Then, the center testing data and the outer ring testing data are stitched by the stitching algorithm to obtain the full-aperture surface shape. Combined with an example, a large convex asphere with a diameter of 540 mm is measured. The test results were compared with the Luphoscan testing results. The residual error of the two methods to test the RMS value of the surface is 0.019λ, and RMS value after subtracting the self-test aperture and stitching result point-to-point is 0.017λ. The results show that the method can achieve high-precision testing of large convex asphere..
