Air pollution greatly impacts the productivity and life of people. Aerosol is an important pollutant and cannot be ignored. It is significant to improve the detection accuracy of atmospheric aerosol concentrations, especially low-concentration aerosols. In this study, filament-induced fluorescence spectrum (FIFS) of NaAir pollution greatly impacts the productivity and life of people. Aerosol is an important pollutant and cannot be ignored. It is significant to improve the detection accuracy of atmospheric aerosol concentrations, especially low-concentration aerosols. In this study, filament-induced fluorescence spectrum (FIFS) of NaCl aerosol is preprocessed and combined with partial least squares (PLSR) to establish a prediction model and explore the impact of different preprocessing methods on the detection accuracy of the model. To choose the preprocessing method, this study divides the preprocessing methods into three aspects according to their effects: scattering correction, smoothing and denoising, and baseline correction, and the significance of peak algorithm is proposed. The optimal preprocessing method is selected after comparing no preprocessing, single preprocessing, and combined preprocessing and analyzing the influence of different preprocessing methods on the accuracy of FIFS spectral prediction model. The experimental results show that the combined preprocessing of multiple methods reduces the root mean square error to 0.03 compared with no preprocessing, and the relative prediction error is reduced by 60%. Compared with the direct observation of spectral signal selection preprocessing method, the best preprocessing method can be selected more accurately according to the improvement of spectral signal-to-noise ratio and the modeling effect of predicted components. The present study provides a reference for the analysis and research of low-concentration air pollutants..

A coherent optical communication system makes full use of information on light intensity, phase, frequency, and polarization, which cannot only improve the efficiency of frequency band utilization, but also extend the relay distance across which optical communication is possible. As a type of multi band modulation, quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) modulation and demodulation can greatly improve the utilization of spectrum resources. Aiming to resolve the problem of the response rate of QPSK modulation and demodulation in coherent optical laser communication, an improved Costas loop is proposed in this study. The results of the experiment verify the entire QPSK modulation and demodulation system and the performance feasibility of the improved Costas loop..

A circular hole and three elliptical holes of different sizes constitute the elliptical side-core photonic crystal-fiber air hole, where the e, e1, and e2 are the ellipticities of the elliptical holes, and the gold-nano-film is coated in the left elliptical hole with the ellipticity e. The finite element analysis software, COMSOL, is used to numerically analyze the sensing characteristics of the sensor. We found that the resonant peak of surface plasmon resonance has a high sensitivity to the change in the refractive index of the measured liquid; the sensitivity of the photonic crystal-fiber sensor varies with ellipticities e, e1 and the gold-nano-film thickness. Within the refractive index range of 1.40-1.42, the sensor sensitivity increases with increasing e1; within the refractive index range of 1.42-1.43, the sensor sensitivity initially decreases and then increases with increasing e1. When ellipticity e1 is 1.2, and the refractive index is 1.43, the sensitivity reaches as high as 31800 nm/RIU (refractive index). At a refractive index of 1.38-1.43, the sensor sensitivity increases with increasing ellipticity e. When ellipticity e is 2.3, the sensitivity reaches as high as 33200 nm/RIU. When the refractive index is 1.42-1.43, the sensor sensitivity decreases with an increase in the gold-nano-film thickness. When the refractive index is 1.43, and the gold-nano-film thickness is 40 nm, the sensor sensitivity reaches as high as 34600 nm/RIU..

Furthermore, we analyze a theoretical formula of the fringe visibility of the ultra-small GRIN fiber probe based on the Gaussian beam and establish a corresponding test experimental system for verification. The experimental results show that for the ultra-small GRIN fiber probe with a focal spot diameter of 15 µm, the fringe visibility remains above 0.8 within a cavity length of 600-1350 µm. However, for single-mode fiber probes, the fringe visibility remains at 0.8 within a cavity length range of 130-530 µm. Therefore, the proposed ultra-small GRIN fiber probe improves the fringe visibility of the F-P interferometer for a long cavity length. This paper provides the theoretical foundation for further research into the application of the ultra-small GRIN fiber probe, which requires a long initial cavity length or a large dynamic range..

The sensitivity of seWire breakage may occur in steel strands in complex engineering environments. In order to effectively identify broken wire signals, a self-sensing steel strand with fiber Bragg grating (FBG) strain sensor embedded and pre-stressed to the center wire of the steel strand is fabricated in this paper. The sensitivity of self-sensing steel strand to the identification of broken wire signals is analyzed to explore the correlation between the damage area and location of cables and the strength of broken wire signals. Taking the damage area, damage location and sensor location of ordinary steel strands as research variables, three groups of tension wire breaking tests are carried out on cables composed of 16 ordinary steel strands and 3 self-sensing steel strands. The test results show that the respective sensing strands can accurately identify the broken wire signal, and the identification of broken wire signal is independent of the distribution position of FBG measuring points in the self-sensing steel strand. The time period of the broken wire signal detected by each sensor is basically the same, and the strength of the broken wire signal collected by the FBG sensor is related to the location and degree of the common steel strand damage..

The fiber Bragg grating (FBG) in the fiber laser resonator is used for temperature sensing. The wavelength change of FBG is successively transformed into the wavelength change of the resonator and the frequency shift of the fiber laser beat frequency signal, which greatly improves the sensitivity of the system. The Python program is used to realize the second-time data automatic collection and saving, thus improving the working efficiency. The error caused by large frequency jitter can be avoided by demodulating the temperature signal through the rectangular frame center position method instead of direct peak value finding method. Compared with optical demodulation technology, the system uses mature electrical demodulation technology to demodulate instead of expensive wavelength demodulation instrument, reducing the cost of modulation. The experimental results show that the system has high sensitivity and measurement accuracy. The average sensitivity of the system is 74.087 kHz/℃. The measurement accuracy of the system is 0.47×10-3 ℃..

Lin Jiang, Wei Li, Yinghan Li, and Linghao Cheng
Semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) can be used to generate narrow optical pulse with steady high extinction ratio and has been widely used in the field of optical fiber sensing. However, most of current schemes only employ SOA in unidirectional modulation for pulse generation. Based on the feature that SOA can work Semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) can be used to generate narrow optical pulse with steady high extinction ratio and has been widely used in the field of optical fiber sensing. However, most of current schemes only employ SOA in unidirectional modulation for pulse generation. Based on the feature that SOA can work in both directions, this paper proposes a bidirectional narrow pulse modulation of SOA to further enhance the extinction ratio of optical pulse. A fiber optic mirror is used to reflect the optical pulse generated by unidirectional modulation back to the SOA for the second pulse modulation. The experimental results show that compared with unidirectional modulation, bidirectional modulation achieves a maximum extra gain of 6.18 dB at low input optical power. For pulsed light with an input peak power of 6 dBm, the bidirectional absorption can further weaken the leakage light intensity by more than 30 dB, and the overall absorption rate reaches more than 72 dB..

The strategy takes the velocity loop simplified using the current loop as the control object, uses the two-degree-of-freedom internal model control to correct the system, and introduces the observer-based control law into the two-degree-of-freedom internal model control to reduce the model error and influence of external disturbances on system performance. The high performance of the proposed strategy is validated by simulation and experiment. The experimental results show that the improved internal model control is better than the traditional internal model control in terms of anti-interference ability, robustness, and tracking performance. Bringing the improved internal model control algorithm into the actual system also has good tracking performance, and its tracking accuracy is about 143 μrad, which is about 24% higher than that of traditional internal model control..

We theoretically analyze the PS technology and the generation and demodulation principle of the PS-OFDM signal. The average power of the modulated OFDM signals for the same transmission power decreased by approximately 20% after PS with a 6.7% extra overhead. Compared with a normal OFDM-RoF system, the proposed PS-OFDM-RoF system can reduce the transmitting power of OFDM signals, and it has a better peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) performance. Furthermore, a 25 GHz verification RoF system with a data rate of 2.5 Gbps is established for analyzing the transmission characteristics of the PS-OFDM signals. The measured bit error rate curves at different fiber lengths show that a PS-OFDM-RoF system based on LDPC can effectively improve the sensitivity of the receiver and increase the reliable transmission distance of the system..

Therefore, it is difficult to meet the length measurement requirements in large-scale digital manufacturing scenarios. This paper designs a data collection and processing system introducing auxiliary interference signals as the digital signal acquisition system clock, and the nonlinearity of the frequency sweep is corrected meanwhile in the signal collection process, and hence the efficiency of the designed system is high. Sparse fast Fourier transform is used to determine the range of the spectrum refinement interval. Based on the zoom fast Fourier transform, the refinement of the distance spectrum is realized and the efficiency of precise distance calculation is effectively improved. The experimental results show that the data processing speed of the designed system is more than 10 times faster compared with traditional systems using the chirp Z transform. Compared with the commercial interferometer, in the equivalent space distance range of 15.4-16.1 m, the error of the measurement is kept within 10 μm, and the measurement repeatability is better than 6 μm..

Results show that there is a strong correlation between the LSP-induced residual stress and the geometric characteristics of the specimen. For the LSP parameters which affected residual stress, the effect of overlapping rate is greater than laser energy, and further more significant than impact times. The optimal LSP parameters are laser power density of 5.30 GW·cm-2, overlapping rate of 50%, and peened twice. With the optimal LSP parameters, the fatigue life increased by 22% and 63% at 260 MPa and 200 MPa stress level, respectively..

The experimental findings indicate that the actuator produced using the proposed scheme has the benefits of large displacement response, high energy utilization rate, low production cost, and high integration. Driven using a 100 mW laser, the actuator's free end can attain a displacement of 100-160 μm in the violet (408 nm) or red (638 nm) band, which is much greater than the displacement (20 μm) produced by the beam in the non-corresponding band..

The overlap ratio and energy density are selected as variable parameters, and the samples are cleaned in one pass and two passes under different parameters. The effects of laser cleaning parameters oA pulsed fiber laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm is used to clean the epoxy silicone paint on the surface of KMN steel. The overlap ratio and energy density are selected as variable parameters, and the samples are cleaned in one pass and two passes under different parameters. The effects of laser cleaning parameters on the substrate surface roughness and the adhesion of the recoating paint are investigated, as well as the trends and reasons for the variation of substrate surface Vickers hardness with the cleaning parameters. The results show that with an energy density of 4.73 J/cm2 and an overlap ratio of 0.4-0.7, the paint cannot be removed by a single pass cleaning, and a second pass cleaning is required to remove the residual paint chips. When the overlap ratio of the second cleaning is less than 0.5 and the energy density is less than 4.25 J/cm2, the substrate surface melting causes a minor decrease in the surface roughness, but the adhesion of the recoating paint is unaffected at surface roughness of more than 0.6. When the overlap ratio of the second cleaning is greater than 0.5 and the energy density is greater than 4.25 J/cm2, the surface tensile stress caused by melting and solidification of the substrate surface, as well as the phase change and grain growth in the heat-affected zone, resulting in a lower hardness on the substrate surface compared to the interior..

Combined with the theory of mTaking the WC nozzle with obvious difference in laser shock resistance performance used in laser jet solder ball bonding as the research object, the difference between microstructure and composition was observed by means of scanning electron microscope/energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer. Combined with the theory of material beam interaction, the micro mechanism of the influence of Co content and microcracks on the laser resistance of WC nozzle was studied. The test results show that WC particle size, through microcrack, and metal binder Co content are obviously different. The analysis shows that the through microcracks caused by excessive sintering pressure will produce light trapping phenomenon to the laser, and form a heat affected zone with higher temperature around it, in which the Co with lower melting point is easy to melt. Near the heat affected zone at the front end of the nozzle small hole, the molten Co and tin ball are prone to metallurgical reaction, forming tin, and the nozzle will fail in severe cases. The more serious the crack and the higher the Co content, the worse the resistance to laser shock of WC nozzle. Therefore, reducing Co content and sintering pressure can effectively improve the laser shock resistance of the nozzle..

Ultrafast laser welding of heterogeneous materials is a fast, clean, and non-contact technique that has been extensively studied in recent years. In this study, molecular dynamics methods are used for simulating the femtosecond laser action at the interface between aluminum and quartz glass. The simulation constructed a Lennard-Jones (LJ) interaction potential for quartz glass according to its melting point and elastic constants. The construction of the LJ interaction potential between aluminum and quartz glass is based on the adhesion work between the two materials, thus simplifying and accelerating the simulation process while maintaining the macroscopic properties. A small-scale molecular dynamics simulation of the femtosecond laser action at the aluminum and quartz glass interface is performed using the two-temperature model coupled to molecular dynamics method. After femtosecond laser irradiation, the local transient temperature in the welding zone and stress are as high as 10000 K and 20 GPa, respectively, and diffusive movement of aluminum atoms to the quartz glass side occurs. The continuous collision of high-temperature particles causes the mixing zone of aluminum and quartz glass to expand, and the center of the mixing zone of the two materials moves toward the quartz glass side. The simulation reveals the molecular dynamics evolution of the femtosecond laser-action aluminum-quartz glass interface on the picosecond time scale at the microscopic level, providing a theoretical basis for femtosecond laser welding of dissimilar materials..

In order to improve the mechanical properties of aluminum alloy fabricated by laser selective melting (SLM), this paper proposed a strengthening method of aluminum alloy material in which Cu element was used as simple particle, and explored the influence of the proportion of Cu element on the forming quality and properties of aluminum alloy fabricated by SLM. The results showed that the doping of Cu powder can refine the microstructure grain of aluminum alloy simply and effectively, and improved the tensile strength of aluminum alloy material. Al2Cu phase could effectively refine the grain and form a more compact micro equiaxed crystal structure in the overlapping area. With the increase of the content of copper powder, the Al2Cu phase generated in the structure gradually increased, and the grain size gradually decreased from 3.30 μm to 2.12 μm. The microstructure was refined. The sample containing 5% copper powder had the highest tensile strength of 460 MPa, which was 20.4% higher than that without copper powder. However, after excessive copper powder was dopped, the performance of the sample was reduced to a certain extent due to the presence of un-melted particles. This study is of great significance to further improve the mechanical properties of aluminum alloy fabricated by SLM..

Furthermore, the effects of adding different volume fractions of SiC for roughness, microstructure, and mechanical properties are investigated. The results reveal that with the increase in SiC volume fraction, the swelling and spheroidization of the top surface are aggravated, the surface roughness and pores become larger, and the side powder adhesion is serious. Additionally, the solidification structure changes from cellular crystals to columnar crystals and then to dendrites, and the samples of hardness and tensile strength are higher than those without SiC powders. When the volume fraction of SiC powders is 0.5, the hardness and tensile strength samples are the highest, reaching 371.1 HV and 1.51 GPa, which are 7% and 54.8% higher than the sample without SiC powders, respectively. Therefore, while the addition of SiC powders increases the top surface roughness and porosity, it can transform and refine the grain, increase the dislocation density and improve mechanical properties, and then enhance the comprehensive performance of the sample..

Aiming at the different melting behavior of powder under the action of light powder, an infrared thermal imaging acquisition system and a high speed camera process acquisition system for the laser cladding process with off-axis powder feeding were built. The light powder thermal interaction under different laser powers and defocus amounts was studied. Three typical characteristic stages of powder melting were established. The influence of laser power and defocus amounts on the duration of the characteristic stage of powder melting was examined. Finally, the relationship between the thermal state of powder and characteristic stage was obtained. The findings depict that with the increase in laser power, the number of melted powder in the interaction space increases and the powder temperature uniformity decreases, and the number of liquid powder particles increases with an increase in defocus and the temperature inhomogeneity of powder decreases. The smaller the laser power or larger the defocusing amount, the time required for the temperature to rise and the solid powder's melting increases. The powder's probability of entering the molten pool in solid state increases. The thermal states of powder arriving at the molten pool under different laser parameters are obtained, providing an experimental basis for the powder melting behavior analysis..

M2 high-speed steel samples were prepared using laser selective melting under different substrate materials and powder feeding speeds. The mechanical properties and microstructure of the samples were characterized and observed. The results show that the thermal expansion coefficient of 316L stainless steel substrate is about 57.27 % higher than that of M2 high-speed steel substrate. The thermal conductivity of 316L stainless steel substrate is 17.28 % lower than that of M2 high speed steel substrate, which reduces the thermal stress produced during the preparation process. Remaining stress is released more fully with slow cooling. Therefore, 316L stainless steel substrate is conducive to forming M2 high-speed steel samples. With the decrease of powder feeding speed, the real-time heat treatment time in the printing process will be greatly increased, which leads to a slight decrease in the hardness of the material but a more compact microstructure, a decrease in cracks, pores, and other defects, and an increase in the tensile strength. The Rockwell hardness of the sample obtained by the experiment is up to (58.97 ± 0.28) HRC, and the tensile strength can reach (937 ± 118) MPa. The microstructure presents a network structure with many martensite columnar crystals, and the needle width is less than 1 μm. The main phases include α-Fe, austenite, martensite, and MC carbides..

The prototype can operate over a wide and continuous energy range between 7 and 11 keV and provide a delay from -15.4 to 503.3 ps. Throughputs of 33.54% (upper) and 33.64% (lower) for the split-delay optical system were simulated by Shadow, meeting the objective of a 1∶1 ratio. An alignment experiment for the prototype was conducted with a green laser, and the results demonstrate that the prototype can recombine the two beams after spatial division, laying the groundwork for future X-ray verification experiments.

The existing design methods for deformable mirrors require repeated iterations over a long period, and the efficiency is low, making it difficult to adapt to the increasing demand for the development efficiency of deformable mirrors. To solve the abovementioned problems, this paper proposes a new design method for deformable mirrors that combines a genetic algorithm and an elastic mechanics influence function analysis model to significantly increase the design efficiency of deformable mirrors and realize rapid design of deformable mirrors.

The finite-difference time-domain method is used to analyze the effects of structural parameters and polarization direction of incident light on the resonant wavelength of the antenna and intensity of the electric field at the tip of the antenna. Based on the optimization of a single-layer structure, the ratios of the intensity of the electric field at the tip of the upper antenna to the intensity of the incident light are calculated with different incident wavelengths when the gap (h) between the two antennas is 0.1-0.8 μm. To investigate the enhancing mechanism of the lower antenna on the electric field of the upper antenna, the variations of the electric-field intensity ratio of the same measured point with and without the upper antenna are analyzed under fixed incident wavelength and an enlarged gap h (0.1-3.6 μm). The results indicate that the enhancement of the electric field at the tip of the upper antenna is mainly attributed to the coupling effect of the double-layer antenna structure, with h being less than 1 μm. When h is less than 0.2 μm, the electric-field intensity at the tip of the upper antenna reduces with decreasing h. This is because the energy at the tip of upper antenna is transferred to the interlayer region owing to near-field coupling. However, when h exceeds 1 μm, the enhancement of the electric field at the tip of the upper antenna is mainly ascribed to the interference effect of the reflected light from the lower antenna..

In the sensing structure, a thick taper is fused between two sections of thin-core optical fiber and between the thin-core fiber and the single-mode fiber, and Co-TCPP is coated on the thin-core fiber's surface. The nanosheet-like morphology and porous microstructure of Co-TCPP make the sensor not only easy to adhere to the fiber but also have a strong adsorption capacity for CO. The structure, morphology, and properties of the sensitive material Co-TCPP are characterized and analyzed by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The findings demonstrate that the sensor's sensitivity to CO mass fraction is 0.0497 dB/10-6, the fitting degree to mass fraction-light intensity is as high as 0.99148, and the response time is around 120 s when the CO mass fraction is 40 × 10-6, and it has good selectivity and time stability to CO..

In this study, to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of bacterial Raman spectralBacterial Raman spectrum is characterized by a weak signal, high similarity, and susceptibility to noise. Its classification using traditional machine learning approaches requires complex spectral preprocessing, and the efficiency is low. In this study, to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of bacterial Raman spectral classification, a one-dimensional convolutional neural network model Raman-net based on dense connection is suggested, which could efficiently complete spectral classification without additional spectral preprocessing. The experimental findings demonstrate that the classification accuracy of Raman-net for 30 bacterial low-signal-to-noise ratios Raman spectra in the Bacteria-ID public data set is 84.26%, which is substantially higher than that of traditional machine learning approaches and comparison approaches. Raman-net attained a classification accuracy of 99.16% for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy of 2 Klebsiella pneumoniae susceptible and resistant to carbapenems. This demonstrates that Raman-net can attain remarkable classification findings for ordinary Raman spectroscopy and surface-improved Raman spectroscopy of bacteria without spectral preprocessing, and offers a fast and efficient approach for Raman spectroscopy identification of pathogenic bacteria..

After extracting the near infrared spectral data of hazelnut, first-order derivative and standard normal variable transformation preprocessing on the hazelnut spectral data is performed. Considering the uncertainty of the initial subset of the random frog algorithm and the final band number threshold's uncertainty, an interval random frog algorithm is utilized to extract the characteristic band, competitive adaptive reweighted sampling algorithm, and successive projections algorithm, and the original random frog algorithm are compared. Furthermore, a partial least squares regression model is developed based on the extracted feature bands. The experimental findings depict that the interval random frog algorithm had the best performance and the developed model is more stable when compared with other algorithms. The regression coefficient and root mean square error of the interval random frog algorithm for the cross-validation set are 0.9082 and 0.0178, respectively, and the regression coefficient and root mean square error for the test set are 0.8999 and 0.0372, respectively..
