The application process of the wavefront sensorless adaptive optics oAdaptive optics (AO) technology is an effective way to alleviate the effect of turbulence on free space optical communication (FSO). A new adaptive compensation method can be used to optimize the communication performance without a wave-front sensor. The application process of the wavefront sensorless adaptive optics on FSO is simulated using the application of differential evolution (DE) algorithm, stochastic parallel gradient descent (SPGD) algorithm and simulated annealing (SA) algorithm. Meanwhile, the wavefront correction capabilities are analyzed by comparison of the coupling efficiency, the error rate and the intensity fluctuation under different turbulence intensities before and after the correction in FSO system. The simulation results show that the three algorithms can effectively improve the communication performance of FSO systems, especially the DE algorithm with lower iteration rate but optimal effects. Therefore, DE is suitable for strong turbulence conditions..

Chen ShunYi, Ding Panfeng, and Pu Jixiong
Based on the theory of generalized Huygens-Fresnel and the cross-spectral density matrix,the analytic expressions of mean-squared beam width of partially coherent radially polarized (PCRP) beam and Gaussian Schellmode (GSM) beam in atmospheric communication are derived.By comparing the influence of turbulence,coherenceBased on the theory of generalized Huygens-Fresnel and the cross-spectral density matrix,the analytic expressions of mean-squared beam width of partially coherent radially polarized (PCRP) beam and Gaussian Schellmode (GSM) beam in atmospheric communication are derived.By comparing the influence of turbulence,coherence length and source wavelength on the spreading of width and angular between the two kinds of beams,it shows that the PCRP beam has superiority in atmospheric communication than GSM beam.The result shows that the propagations of the PCRP beam and the GSM beam in turbulence follow the same rules.The larger the turbulence is,the larger the spreading of width and angular is.The larger the coherence length is,then the more the effect of turbulence on the PCRP beam is,the smaller the angular spreading is.The larger the source wavelength is,then the less the effect of turbulence on the PCRP beam is,the larger the angular spreading is.But the PCRP beam is far less affected by turbulence,coherence length and source wavelength than the GSM beam,which means the spreading of width of the GSM beam is larger than that of the PCRP beam.In addition,the spreading of angular of the GSM beam not only relates to the three parameters above,but also is affected by the width of the source beam which is nothing to do with the spreading of angular of the PCRP beam.The above conclusions show that the PCRP beam is more beneficial to atmospheric communication than the GSM beam,and the study about turbulence,coherence length and source wavelength has a guiding role for the application of PCRP beam in atmospheric communication..

The horizontal propagation characteristics of THz wave in atmospheric turbulence have been studied by the random phase screen method. Through ignoring the scattering and absorption of THz atmospheric conditions and focusing on the atmospheric refractive index fluctuation, the average intensity distribution and scintillation indexes on the receiver plane were studied under different propagation distances in the atmospheric turbulence. For comparison, the visible light waves were also carried out through numerical simulation and analysis under the same conditions. The results show that under the same conditions, the influence of atmospheric turbulence on THz wave is much smaller than it on the visible light wave. Furthermore, atmospheric turbulence has little impact on the short-range application of THz wave..

The influences of the atmospheric turbulence on that are studied when the signal light and the local optical field distributions are not the same, the change of the heterodyne efficiency along with the radius is disscussed. The conclusion shows that when signal and local optical field are Airy+Gauss model, the influence of turbulence on the heterodyne efficiency is minimum, and will not change along with the detector radius after the efficiency is maximum. The influence of the turbulence is biggest under the Airy+Plane wave model, even under the weak turbulence, the heterodyne efficiency falls very quickly, and the maximum value of the drop rate is 95.13%..

The results show that the flux density on plane photovoltaic cells distributed in three regions, which from the center to both sides are flux density is zero, flux density is greater than incident light and flux density is smaller than incident light. The flux density distribution curve is fitted and flux density goes down exponentially from the center to the edge. The closer the photovoltaic cell stay to parabolic focal and higher flux density is obtained and more quickly the flux density goes down.

TThe equipment based on confocal principle is a kind of new setup, which can fast and automatically measure center thickness of lens without contact of lens surfaces. We investigate the spectral bandwidth of emergent light in order to obtain the factors influencing the spectrum bandwidth and the measurement precision. The result shows that the numerical aperture on image side and the confocal hole radius are the main factors. When the numerical aperture is larger, the spectral bandwidth is smaller and the measurement precision is higher. What is more, when the hole radius is smaller, the spectral bandwidth is smaller and the measurement precision is higher, too. Then, we adopt the result to guide the design and simulation, and we get a better numerical aperture and confocal hole radius, which can realize the precision of the measurement system..

This research forced on the effect of technology parameters on the micro-hardness peened by laser, including laser pulse width, signal pulse energy, the number of laser shocks, and the thickness of ablative layer. We designed an orthogonal experiment of process parameters of LSP, and the best technological parameters are obtained. On this basis, the best performance of the SLP of 6082 aluminum alloy is analyzed: Laser pulse width is 16 ns, and energy is 6 J when 6082 aluminum alloy is peened only once with the 0.2-mm thickness of absorption layer. According to the test results, we conclude that due to the low yield strength of 6082 aluminium alloy, the highest elastic level is also lower, thus the optimal value of the strengthen effect is low. When the power density is too large, it will influence the effect of LSP. The surface microhardness will also decrease..

Based on the principle of powder accumulation, the formation process of ends of single-track laser cladding layer is analyzed. An analytical model of constructing the ends is developed. Some single-track laser cladding layers are prepared. By laser scanning confocal microscope, the ends of single-track laser cladding layers are observed. And the profiles of a series of cross section along the scanning direction and longitudinal section are measured. The result indicates that the width/height of the ends increase inward along the scanning direction. Beyond the distance of the radius of molten pool, the width of the ends equal to the one of the cladding layer and keep stable. Moreover, the height of the zone out of the initial/tail molten pool reaches stable while the one in the initial/tail molten pool keeps increasing. Between those two zones, a boundary of broken line is formed. Beyond the distance of the length of molten pool, the cross section of laser cladding layer reaches stable. The constructed result shows good agreement with the experimental one in the main geometry characteristics, which indicates the powder accumulation is the primary mechanism in determining the morphology of ends of single-track laser cladding layer. The developed model provides a foundation to get insight into the morphology of ends of singletrack laser cladding layer..

The computed results show that, with the increase of Sb doping concentration, the Fermi energy level passes through conduction band, and the band gap is narrower in succession, meanwhile, the energy level of shallow donor impurity is shifted away from the conduction band bottom, which makes the conductivity enhanced. The calculated results of charge density indicate that Sb-doping can change the property of SnO2 bond formation, which makes the covalent weakened and the metallicity enhances with the increase of Sb doping concentration. The calculated results of optical properties show that the imaginary part of the dielectric function has a red shift like the total density of state (TDOS) with the increase of Sb doping concentration, which indicates the internal relationship between electronic structure and optical properties theoretically..

Merging of the resonance tunneling frequency is found when the conjugate matched condition is satisfied. The resonance frequency has nothing to do with the layer thickness when the thickness ratio remains unchanged. The only influence is to cause the resonant peak to be much narrower and quality factor enhanced when layer thickness increases. The electric fields corresponding to frequencies of the resonance modes are found to be strongly localized at interface of two media. When the losses are considered, the losses make the symmetry of electric field distribution destroyed and transmittance depressed..

Based on the derived result, the intensity and phase distributions of the generated Gaussian vortex beam by Based on the paraxial approximation of propagation of optical beam, the analytical expression of electric field is derived on the observation plane for the Gaussian beam passing through spiral phase plate (SPP). Based on the derived result, the intensity and phase distributions of the generated Gaussian vortex beam by SPP are analyzed. It is found that, different from the case of ideal SPP, the intensity of the beam from multi-level SPP is periodically distributed in the azimuthal direction. The periodicity is equal to the order of the SPP. A suitable choice of the SPP is 16-level structure to obtain good quality of intensity and phase distributions of the generated vortex beam. On the same condition, obtaining good quality of phase distribution requires longer propagation distance of the beam after SPP. In addition, the topological charge decided by the SPP has almost no influence on the above points. The decisive element is still the order of the SPP. The results can provide guidance on the use of SPP in the experiment..

Effects of the initial atom states and the Fock state and the atomic movement on entanglement and quantum discord and a comparison of entanglement and quantum discord are analyzed. The results show that the initial atom state can change the time evolution of entanglement and quantum discord, the increase of Fock state number can make the entanglement and quantum discord from periodic evolution to nonperiodic evolution. The nozero of the number of Fock state can lead to entanglement sudden death and nonzero quantum discord. Atomic movement can make the entanglement and quantum discord from nonperiodic evolution to periodic evolution, and can make the period shorter and it is found that the increase of the field model structure parameter can increase the entanglement and quantum discord. In some cases, the evolution law of entanglement and quantum discord are nearly same..

However, foIn recent years, with the continuous miniaturization of components and the requirements for more compact and highly reliable products, effective microjoining has become one of the important parts of micromanufacturing. Several methods have been successfully used to microjoin similar or dissimilar materials. However, for transparent and fragile materials, such as glasses, the effective microjoining has been being a challenge. Nowadays, a few kinds of lasers have been widely used for welding many materials, but for lasers with long pulse width,the energy can hardly be absorbed and the thermal expansion may make the glasses broken, which is not suitable for glasses microjoining. Due to the excellent characteristics of little thermal effect of heating materials and nonlinear absorption, ultrashort pulsed lasers are very suitable for microjoining glasses, which has become a hot research field of micromanufacturing. The mechanism of ultrashort pulsed laser microwelding of glasses, the existing problems and the potential applications are elaborated. The future trends of ultrashort pulsed laser microwelding of glasses are also prospected..

Photoluminescence (PL) characteristics of hybrid β-FeSi2/Si films are investigated at low temperature (20 K). The β-FeSi2/Si filmsThe high quality β-FeSi2/Si films whose surfaces are smooth and even on Si (1 1 1) are fabricated by pulsed laser deposition (PLD), and the sizes of β-FeSi2 nanocrystals are about 20~50 nm. Photoluminescence (PL) characteristics of hybrid β-FeSi2/Si films are investigated at low temperature (20 K). The β-FeSi2/Si films show a relatively PL peak at 1540 nm, which corresponds to the band-band recombination of β-FeSi2. Er3 + is doped into Si layer, and the β-FeSi2/Si∶Er shows increase of PL intensity and is a novel approach to decrease the nonradiative centers. The infrared emission of β-FeSi2/Si∶Er films originat from the stark of 4I13/2→4I15/2 in Er3+ and band-band recombination in β-FeSi2..

The film system is designed and optimized by film software after testing the dispersive curve of the materials by spectroscopic ellipsometer. The edge filter is prepared on the quartz substrate through electron-beam evaporation system, and the end-Hall ion source assisted deposition is used to improve the refractive index of the materials. By adjusting parameters of the filter and improving optical controlled method, the error accumulation of thickness at the monitor wavelengths is solved. The transmittance of the films at 808、980 and 1064 nm wavelengths are less than 0.01%, and the average transmission is over than 90% at visible band. The test results show that the edge filter meets the requirements of the testing system for infrared up-conversion materials..
