The chemical cleaning of the gradient-doping GaN photocathode surface is carried out. The analysis of the surface after the chemical cleaning with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) shows that the chemical cleaning can effectively remove the organic attachments, residues in the process on the surface. Subsequent annealing of the surface under ultra-high vacuum at temperature of 710 ℃ leads to a decrease in the residual carbon, so the photocathode can obtain the ideal atom clean surface for high-performance negative electron affinity (NEA) photocathode. Finally, the photocathode active experimental results confirm that thermal annealing after chemical treatment method can effectively clean the gradient-doping GaN photocathode surface..

The change of the local effective refractive A novel fiber Bragg grating with micro-structured defect is proposed and demonstrated. Its temperature characteristics are studied experimentally. It was obtained by wet chemical etching part of fiber Bragg grating in different concentrations of hydrofluoric acid solutions. The change of the local effective refractive index in the etched area induces two resonant peaks. Experimental results show that the two resonant peaks have different temperature sensitive coefficients. The wavelengths of the two resonant peaks become 0.8127 nm and 0.7329 nm longer while the temperature increases from 20 ℃ to 90 ℃, and the temperature sensitive coefficients are 0.01161 nm/℃ and 0.01047 nm/℃ respectively. The fitting linearity is 0.991 and 0.998 respectively. So the two resonant peaks of novel fiber grating present good linear relationship with temperature..

The long-time effect of laser skin welding was investigated through macroscopic and microscopic examinations as well as tensile strength tests at different time after the welding, comparing with that of conventional suturing. At the same time, the temperature of rat skin tissue during laser-welding was measured in vivo with a thermo-couple temperature measurement in order to analysis the relation between the effect of tissue welding and tissue temperature. Using a power density of 15.92 W/cm2 with power of 0.5 W in continuous wave mode and exposure time of 5 seconds per spot for both 980 nm and 1064 nm lasers, it′s found that laser tissue welding yielded more effective closure and healing than conventional suturing technique that with faster recovery, better apposition of tissue, less tissue interaction and tighter closure. As a result, tissue welding with a combination of two near-infrared lasers is an effective method for wound closure, and further investigations are in progress for clinical use..

Gao Hongfang, Ren Yuxuan, Liu Weiwei, and Li Yinmei
Vortex optical trap is generated by projecting computer-generated phase patterns to liquid crystal spatial light modulator. Because vortex beam itself owns orbital angular momentum, it can be utilized to trap and rotate yeast cell. The angular rotation rate of yeast cell is measured by Fourier transforming of rotation Vortex optical trap is generated by projecting computer-generated phase patterns to liquid crystal spatial light modulator. Because vortex beam itself owns orbital angular momentum, it can be utilized to trap and rotate yeast cell. The angular rotation rate of yeast cell is measured by Fourier transforming of rotation time-sequencial signal. Besides, how laser power, topological charge and height of the vortex trap from bottom affect the angular rate of rotation is discussed in detail. The experimental results indicate that the rotation rate is proportional to laser power, but inversely proportional to the square of the topological charge. The rotation rate reaches maximum when the height of trap is about 14 μm. The sign of topological charge determines the direction of rotation of yeast cell. When the sign of topological charge is positive, the yeast cell rotates counter-clockwise, and it rotates clockwise when the sign is negative. The results may find their potential applications in the measurement of the torque of bacterial flagella motor..

The optical transport characteristic of pericardium meridian before and after moxibustioIn order to explore optical transmission characteristics between meridian tissue and non-meridian tissue before and after moxibustion, a self-made device is used to detect optical transmission characteristics with high sensitivity. The optical transport characteristic of pericardium meridian before and after moxibustion neiguan acupoint is reserched, optical transport characteristic of the non-meridian tissue before and after couterizing non-acupoint point is also researched which is 1 cm far away from neiguan acupoint. The optical transmission efficiency in pericardium meridian and non-meridian tissue both decrease after moxibustion, but there is a much more significant decrease in pericardium meridian than non-meridian tissue(P<0.05). These findings suggest that the optical transmission characteristics of pericardium meridian and non-meridian tissue are different, and pericardium meridian appears more sensitive to moxibustion. The results herein can offer beneficial reference in meridian studies and clinical application of moxibustion..

An analytic study on the aberration property of a Rowland circle mount which is recorded with the off-Rowland recording geometry is presented. It is found that the astigmatism and sagittal coma can be simultaneously eliminated for two wavelengths, between which the aberrations are both greatly reduced. The Rowland-circle mounts used for broad-band spectrographs can be optimized by properly choosing the using geometry and correction wavelength. A grating working in the wavelength range of 160~600 nm is designed and compared with a conventional grating. The result indicates that significant reduction of the astigmatism and improvement of resolution are both achieved over a wide wavelength range..

An external dither pickoff reference signal is needed for all existing dither stripping apparatuses. The obtaining of the dither reference will make the application system more complex, and the system will be less stable. A new dither stripping method is developed, in which external reference signal is needed no more; instead the reference signal is generated by the gyro itself. The circuit is simplified by using this method; meanwhile experimental results show that this method can achieve better output results than those of the method using external reference. This method makes the MDRLG easier to be used in the applications of fast control and tracking..

However, Lissajous pattern realized by driving signal of sine form is hard to balance between uniformity, coverage and frame frequency, which hinders the optimization of scanning pattern. Based on response characteristic of the asymmetry fiber cantilever, the paper presents an amplitude modulated sine function as the driving signal for optimization of the scanning pattern. Simulations on scanning patterns under the same frame rate based on different driving signals are conducted, and evaluations in terms of uniformity and coverage are given. The comparative experiment is conducted too, and the results demonstrate the feasibility of this method..

Microstructure analysis is conducted by optical microscope and scanning electric microscope. Hot tearing mechanism and susceptibility of butt and lap joint are discussed, respectively. Results show that the weld metal is composed of as-cast single phase dendrite austenite. Some hot tearing is in the weld center of butt joint, but none is in the lap joint. At the last solidifying stage of impinging dendrite, generally, dendrite grain boundary energy γgb is always two times larger than liquid/solid interfacial energy γsl of liquid film. The liquid film coalescence will not occur until adequate undercooling ΔTb, which results in hot tearing of butt joint under welding residual tensile stress. However, the remained liquid of upper weld pool can flow down and fill into torn liquid film, then lap joint has a lower hot tearing susceptibility..

The stereo microscope，scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and energy spectrum analysis are adopted to analyze the surface morphology, microstructure and phase composition. The microhardness and uniformity of the hardness of the nitrided layers are measured by the microhardness tester and the nano indenter. The corrosion resistance of nitrided layers is analyzed by M283 potentiostat and M352 analyse software. The result shows that TiN is formed on the surface of TA2 which serves as a reinforcing phase. It is made up of nitrided layer, heat affected zone and the base metal after the laser gas nitriding treatment. The nitrided layer mainly consists of TiN and α′-Ti which has a uniform hardness with a thickness of 30 μm. The heat affected zone is mainly composed of needle α′-Ti. TA2 laser gas nitriding improves the uniform and localized corrosive resistance of the base metal..

Temperature and stress distribution of Nd∶YVO4 crystal are simulated according to the difference of optical absorption properties of Nd∶YVO4 crystals pumped by 808 nm and 888 nm, respectively. The changes of crystal temperature distribution and thermal focal length are also simulated when the pumping beam polarization Temperature and stress distribution of Nd∶YVO4 crystal are simulated according to the difference of optical absorption properties of Nd∶YVO4 crystals pumped by 808 nm and 888 nm, respectively. The changes of crystal temperature distribution and thermal focal length are also simulated when the pumping beam polarization components in a-axis and c-axis are changed. From simulation results, the crystal temperature gradient with 888 nm pump-wavelength is one sixth than that of 808 nm and the crystal temperature stress value is much less than that of 808 nm pump-wavelength. The resonator and output power are not affected by the change of pumping beam’s polarization because the light absorption coefficients on a-axis and c-axis of Nd∶YVO4 are the same when pump wavelength is 888 nm. This is one of the effective ways to reduce Nd∶YVO4 crystals thermal effect and increase Nd∶YVO4 laser power with 888 nm pump-wavelength..

By using passive phase locking technology with optical feedback in a ring cavity, the experimental setup of coherent beam combination of four lasers in two dimensions is built, and the combination of four fiber lasers is realized. When the diameter of ideal beam is selected as the circumscribed circle diameter of sub-beams in near-field, circular flat-topped beam or Gaussian beam is taken as the ideal beam model. Corresponding to different bucket sizes of laser spot in far-field, BQs are measured separately. The results show that, the selection of ideal beam model in the definition has little effect on BQ, but the selection of bucket size of laser spot in far-field has greater impact on BQ. The BQs of different coherent beam combination systems should be evaluated with a clear definition of BQ..

According to the known low frequency phase in near-field, the intensity distribution in near-field and the intensity distribution in far-field, the successive iteration method has been proposed to recover the high frequency phase in near-field, and the recovery effect of high frequency phase has been analyzed quantitatively in the terms of the residual error, peak-valley (PV) value, RMS and power spectral density (PSD) of the wavefront. In addition, the adaptability of the retrieval method has been convinced by recovering different distorted wavefronts. The results show that the high frequency phase of distorted wavefront can be recovered effectively by using the successive iteration method, and the wavefront distortion including the low and the high frequency phases can be readily obtained.

Polarization-maintaining fiber Bragg grating（PM-FBG） and a high finesse fiber ring filter are introduced based on the traditional fiber laser. PM-FBG is used as the wavelength selection device to produce A dual-wavelength fiber laser with a narrow bandwidth, based on a high finesse fiber ring filter has been proposed. Polarization-maintaining fiber Bragg grating（PM-FBG） and a high finesse fiber ring filter are introduced based on the traditional fiber laser. PM-FBG is used as the wavelength selection device to produce dual-wavelength. The fiber ring filter consists of two optical couplers and a section of weak pumped erbium-doped fiber(EDF). Because of the delay of cavity length and the gain generated by the EDF, the filter has spectral response with a high finesse. The incorporation of the fiber ring filter leads to the suppression of undesirable mode and makes the output laser narrow bandwidth. Under 980 nm LD pumped, the maximum outputs of the two wavelengths are 5.27 mW and 1.02 mW, respectively, at the room temperature. And the wavelength spaces of the two wavelengths are tunable within the range between 0.16 nm and 0.32 nm..

The pointing errors can be estimated from the scatter return photons back from the illuminated target. The perfoLaser beam pointing systems are generally affected by pointing errors. The pointing errors cause energy loss and the decline of the system performance while the center of the laser beam is not on the target. The pointing errors can be estimated from the scatter return photons back from the illuminated target. The performance of pointing error can be improved with close-loop control on the measurement of the return signals. In this paper a method to reduce pointing error based on the return signals from the illuminated target is studied. The stochastic parallel gradient descent (SPGD) algorithm is applied in this method. Some effects to influence the precision of pointing errors are analyzed. The analysis is verified by experiment..

For the intensity distribution of the flat-topped rectangular beam, the rotary laser beam is adopted to weaken the thermal effects induced by the heterogeneous beam intensity distribution. Based Heterogeneous heating of the laser beam is one of the most important effects on the beam propagating through the atmosphere. For the intensity distribution of the flat-topped rectangular beam, the rotary laser beam is adopted to weaken the thermal effects induced by the heterogeneous beam intensity distribution. Based on the computational fluid dynamics(CFD) software of Fluent, thermal effects of the beam in the line pipe with axial pipe flow are modeled. The results indicate that the second order astigmatism which is one of the greater components of optical path difference(OPD) induced by the heterogeneous beam intensity distribution is almost vanished because of the rotary laser beam, while the defocus and the spherical aberration which are the other greater components of the OPD are still exist. The effect of rotary laser beam does not affect the time of the thermal effects reaching the steady state. So the rotary beam effect can improve the beam propagating property..

Based on the theory of Fabry-Perot cavity, the resonant characteristics of microcavity structure are studied, which is formed by reflectors composed of two slabs of the same single-negative materials. If the reflectors are composed of ε-negative (ENG) material, the omnidirectional transmission of TM mode can be realizeBased on the theory of Fabry-Perot cavity, the resonant characteristics of microcavity structure are studied, which is formed by reflectors composed of two slabs of the same single-negative materials. If the reflectors are composed of ε-negative (ENG) material, the omnidirectional transmission of TM mode can be realized under certain conditions; for the case of μ-negative (MNG) material, the omnidirectional transmission of TE mode can be realized. The omnidirectional transmission spectrum narrows and quality factor increases with the increase of incident angle. The increase of the refractive index of material in cavity effectively reduces the size of microcavity structure for omnidirectional transmission of TM mode, but the modulation is less obvious for that of TE mode. The existence of single-negative material loss does not break the characteristics of omnidirectional resonance of two microcavity structures, but the transmissivity of resonant mode reduces with the incident angle. Through optimized processing, the conditions are found for these two types of microcavities to realize the omnidirectional transmission, which provides useful theoretical guidance to the design of omnidirectional filters..

A novel pellicle optimization method is developed based on the film In hyper numerical aperture (NA) lithography imaging, the incident angle of imaging rays on pellicle varies in a wide range, so it is difficult to enhance the transmittance of oblique incidence employing the conventional pellicle optimization methods. A novel pellicle optimization method is developed based on the film optics theory, which maximizes the average transmittance within the whole incident angles range. The transmission properties and phase characteristics of pellicle are studied using Johns matrix representation. The corresponding Johns pupil is obtained to analyze the polarization aberration induced by pellicle. The results show that, compared with the conventional pellicle optimization methods, the novel method enhances the transmittance of oblique incidence and decreases the pellicle-induced polarization aberration more effectively. The novel method provides the essential theoretical basis and technical support for pellicle setting in hyper NA lithography imaging..

It is significant that smaller attenuation value should be chosen to calculate laser linewidth if laser linetype is unknown previously and larger attenuation value for known laser linetype. In the experiment of beat frequency using two external cavity diode lasers (ECDL), linewidth ratio is measured under typical attenuation values, which can be used to judge linetype of laser. Using the method above, linewidth of laser is achieved with an error about 0.23% compared with its calibration data, therefore linewidth measurement precision of laser is enhanced. The method is still applicable to other linetypes analysis..

A serial of ultrasonic pulses can be detected by self-made PZT transducer fixed in the detection point when scanning the line source focused from NdYAG laser with electronic control translation stage. Then the velocity of Rayleigh waves is computed by waveform cross-correlation technique; the velocities of longitudinal wave and shear wave reflected by the bottom surface of the sample are obtained by different traveling time with their propagation distance. At the end, the SOE constants and density of isotropic material are determinated according to the Christoffel theory of elasticity. Results show that the values of SOE constants and density which signed with C11, C44 and ρ agree well with the corresponding parameters reported in the existing papers. What′s more, the relative accuracy of the determinated parameters indicated from error analysis demonstrates the feasibility and reliability of this method..

The evolution of the PDL with wavelength with respect to transversal pressure is studied theoretically and experimentally. A theoretical model for transversal pressure sensing by use of PDL is built and numerical simulation is also carried out. The theoretical analysis suggests that the PDL of FBG is more suitable for measuring transverse pressure than single spectral analysis in the low pressure region because of its greater sensitivity. Under the transverse pressure conditions of 0~180 N, the demodulation is realized by use of the centroid height and the wavelength spacing of the two peaks respectively. The resolutions of 0.06 dB/N for small pressure (0~80 N) and 2.5 pm/N for large pressure (81~180 N) are demonstrated. Good agreements between experimental results and numerical simulations verify the feasibility of the method..

The relationship between the target′s orientation and the point cloud projection distribution is analyzed, a feature called projection density entropy (PDE) is extracted to measure this distribution. A novel method for target orientation estimation is proposed according to the relationship between the target′s orientation and PDE. The point cloud is rotated around one coordinate axis, then the PDE of the rotated point cloud is calculated, and the rotation angle with the least PDE is taken as the orientation angle. Point clouds of five kinds of ground armored targets under different viewpoints are simulated, and the performances of PDE, rectangle fitting and principle component analysis (PCA) methods under the situations of self-occlusion and occlusion are analyzed. The strategy of parameter selection is discussed, and a fast realization method of PDE is proposed. The experimental results show that the estimation performance and robustness of PDE method outperform rectangle fitting and PCA methods greatly in the cases of self-occlusion and occlusion.
