The design method of wavefront corneal contact lens by the objective optometry is presented. The back surface profile of the contact lens is acquired from the topographic data of the anterior corneal surface, via a fitting procedure of least square; and the front surface profile is acquired from the ocular aberrated wavefront data, via a propagation procedure through tear film and lens medium with the diffraction theory of angular spectrum. Applying the profile of the two surfaces, the prescription of the contact lens can be obtained. Eight myopic eyes with different defocusing and astigmatism are selected in this research and their corresponding contact lenses based on the wavefront aberrations have been designed. By analyzing the vergence of the designed contact lens, it is found that the vergence of the contact lens is equal to that of the eye plus to that of the tear lens while the profile of the back surface of the contact lens is spherical and the vergence of the contact lens is equal to that of the eye for the case of toroidal, then the design procedure of the contact lens is validated..

To measure the modulation transfer function (MTF) of near-infrared InGaAs focal plane arrays (FPA), an all-reflective Offner optical system is designed and fabricated, which consists of two co-axial spherical mirrors, operating as a 11 imager with F/#=4. After optimization at the FPA working wavelength 1.7 μm, a nearly diffraction limited field of view (FOV) up to 8 mm×30 mm is obtained. The MTF at a space frequency of 20 lp/mm (referring to the 25 μm×25 μm device′s Nyquist frequency) is above 0.8 in the FOV. After fabrication and calibration of the optical system, a Zygo interferometer is used to check its performance, finding that the root mean square (RMS) of wavefront error is about 1/20 wave at 0.6328 μm, and the MTF@20 lp/mm (0.6328 μm), is above 0.93. Then the measured wavefront data is inputted into CODEV to calculate the MTF at 1.7 μm. The result shows that, the value of MTF @1.7 μm,20 lp/mm is still above 0.8..

The convergent efficiency of computer-controlled optical surfacing (CCOS) relates to many factors such as algorithm, parameter settings, tool and abrasive. A kind of local deconvolution algorithm with high efficiency is put forward, firstly plotting the error figure to manufacturing area and non-manufacturing area, and programming the manufacturing trace in each manufacturing area, then doing deconvolution in local area along the manufacturing path, thus getting the dwell time of the tool in each area, lastly according the nearest point criterion to switch from one manufacturing area to the other. The ratio of the efficient manufacturing time to the total running time of the tool is raised greatly, so the whole manufacturing efficiency is increased, and the mid-frequency error is restricted to some extent..

In the inertial-confinement fusion (ICF) driver, the large-aperture array mirror mount is an important opto-mechanical system, which affects the beam direction and position precision. Random vibration and the parameters of the large aperture array mirror mount are the main factors that influence the dynamic response of the mirror. The finite element analysis software is used to analyze the relation between the parameters of the excited power spectral density (PSD), the structure elastic modulus, the damp ratio and the structure dynamic response. The results indicate that reducing the excited PSD and increasing the elastic modulus has the same effect on reducing large-aperture mirror mount structure dynamic response, and increasing the damp ratio is the best way. However, the effect of all the methods as reducing excited PSD, increasing elastic modulus and damp retio is becoming weaker..

The deformation of a continuous facesheet DM with discrete push-pull actuators in the thin plate approximation is described by the differential equation. Analysis of the equation shows that to achieve a high quality correction of low-order aberrations, deformable mirrors should have some actuators positioned outside the correction aperture. By finite element analysis, the correcting abilities of defocus, astig and coma are compared. A novel design of 9 actuators positioned on the edge of aperture and mirror is proposed and optimized. The analysis results show that the new design improves the correcting abilities, especially for coma which is hard to correct. Finally the wavefront correction and modal correction methods are compared..

A simple approach based on polarization to process binary all-optical logic signal with validation is proposed, by electro-optic Pokels effect. In experiment, we choose optical signal with two orthogonal linear polarization states to present logic 1 and 0. This approach can alter the polarization state of input optical signal about 90°on the polarization plane based on electro-optic modulation of periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN). Optical signal can be switched between the two orthogonal polarization states, and polarization direction will be not changed without external applied electric field. Therefore, it can realize controllable-NOT function. If we choose external applied electric field to present logic 1 and 0, it can realize NOR and XNOR functions. In this approach, digital logic signal is carried on the polarization state of optical signal. The dissipation of intensity of optical signal is very small in this process, so this approach is more advantageous for multiply cascaded systems ,comparing with traditional approach ,in which digital logic signal is carried on the intensity of optical signal..

Light is one of the precipitating factors of red tide, and the intensity of light plays a key role on the growth of red tide advantage algae. Monochromatic LEDs are used as the light source to cultivate dinoflagellate Prorocentrum lima and diatom Skeletonema costatum. When temperature and light cycle are fixed, to investigate the effect of different light intensities of green, red and blue light on the growth rates and spectrum absorption coefficient of algae is investigated. The results show that the saturated light intensity of blue light of Prorocentrum lima and Skeletonema costatum are the lowest, and the saturated light intensities of red light of Prorocentrum lima, and green light of Skeletonema costatum are the highest, respectively. Within saturated light intensity and the same light intensity, the growth rates of Prorocentrun lima and Speletonema constatum are the largest in blue light, but lowest in red and green light, separately. Besides, it is concluded that the growth rates of two algae are positive to the spectrum absorption coefficient, while saturated light intensity is negative to the spectrum absorption coefficient under different monochromatic lights..

As a coherent digital holographic imaging method, the speckles noise degrades the image quality. To solve this problem, a method to reduce speckle noise is proposed for digital holography. A series of digital holograms is obtained by shifting object slightly. Each hologram is reconstructed individually, while the differences between these retrieved complex amplitudes due to the object shifting are corrected with phase compensation and image registration algorithms. So all reconstructed complex amplitudes of object have same distribution, but uncorrelated coherent noise patterns. The speckle noise is well suppressed by averaging these reconstructed images. The theory and experimental results prove that the method is effective and feasible..

In connection with the characteristics of integral imaging three-dimensional display, the stereo depth of integral imaging three-dimensional display system has been calculated using the cognominal-points spacing in the adjacent elemental images. Through in-depth analyze the maximum and minimum stereo depth reproduced by the system, the reconstructing ability of stereo depth is presented. The results show that the lens array pitch and cognominal-points spacing have important influence on the stereo depth, and then the reconstructing ability of stereo depth in the integral imaging system is determined by the resolution of display device and the lens array pitch. On the basis of theoretical analysis, modulation of the stereo depth of system is realized with optical experiments through changing the cognominal-points spacing..

In order to extract spectral feature for achieving spectral classification, 16 multispectral images of pseudoperonospora cubensis for cucumber disease, including visual light band, near-infrared band and a panchromatic band, were captured for 6 samples in this paper. Then, the distinguish ability of all multispectral images were computed by average gray, standard error and background gray. We ordered the 16 bands using the distinguish ability to 6 samples. The bands with high distinguish ability were extracted as spectral feature bands of cucumber′ pseudoperonospora cubensis. The result showed that it was speedy to extract spectral feature of cucumber disease by the gray of images. The multispectral images of 700, 600, 589 and 546 nm bands have plentiful black-white distribution and good contrast. They were spectral feature bands of cucumber′ pseudoperonospora cubensis..

The three-dimensional (3D) profiles of a plate with many micro grooves is obtained by using dual-wavelength digital holography. Two individual phase images are obtained by using two different wavelengths, respectively, and the phase image for beat wavelength is obtained after dual-wavelength phase unwrapping. Then the 3D profiles can be obtained through the phase image of the beat wavelength. This method is demonstrated by both numerical simulation and experiment. In the experiment, two lasers of the different wavelengths 632.8 nm and 671 nm are used to obtain a larger beat wavelength. The object is a plate with many micro grooves. The result shows that the average depth of the groove is 7.1 μm. This is in good agreement with the result given by the profilometer. It demonstrates that the 3D imaging result by using dual-wavelength digital holography is effective..

Ni60CuMoW+1.00%Ti alloy powder laser cladding composite coatings was fabricated on 1Cr18Ni9Ti stainless steel surface with normalizing treatment by 6 kW transverse-flow CO2 laser apparatus. The clad coatings was examined and tested for chemical composition, microstructure feature, phase structure, microhardness, corrosion behavior and metallography by X-ray diffraction (XRD), microhardness test, electrochemistry workstation and optical microscopy (OM), respectively. The results show that some new phases are formed in the cladding layer which consist of γ-(Fe, Ni) solid solution, intermetallic compound NiCu, CrNiFeC, CuNiTi2, Mo9Ti and harden phase Ni2Si, Fe3Ni3B, WC, TiC. OM observation displays that the microstructure of cladding layer is homogeneous, compactness and forming a good metallurgical bonding interface. Micro-hardness measurement exhibits that the highest hardness lies in 0.5~1.0 mm range from the surface and reaches 649 HV. Electrochemical corrosion test in 5.0% NaCl saturated solution indicates that the self-corrosion potential (Ecorr) of composite coating sample increases by 192.8 mV and the corrosion current density (Icorr) decreases by 26.8%. Compared with the substrate and the composite coating, the corrosion resistance of stainless steel with normalizing samples improved significantly..

The influence of nanosecond laser surface modification on the femtosecond laser-induced damage of 800 nm Ta2O5/SiO2 dielectric film is investigated in this paper. Surface modification of samples is performed by Raster-scanning with scanning mode of 1-on-1 and scanning velocities timed such that there is a beam overlap at 70% of the peak fluence by 5 Hz-1064 nm-12 ns NdYAG fundamental lasers. Femtosecond laser damage of samples is carried out by 1 kHz-800 nm-135 fs Ti: sapphire laser system with 1-on-1 mode test. The result indicates the femtosecond laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDTs) of all the samples with various modification fluence steps are reduced by about 20%, which seems to be closely related with the contribution of the microscopic electronic defects (native or laser-induced trapping states) in the band gap..

In order to investigate the effect of two-sided laser shot peening (LSP) on fatigue crack growth of 6061-T6 Aluminum alloy compact tension (CT) specimens under different coverage areas, finite element software Abaqus and MSC.Fatigue are used to establish the prediction model. Three different LSP coverage areas, i.e. 15 mm×15 mm, 34.5 mm×15 mm and 15 mm×60 mm are selected. The effects of compressive residual stress on the crack closure by different LSP coverage areas are studied, and the fatigue life increment is predicted. The simulation results indicate that the fatigue crack growth rates of laser peened CT specimens is decreased in comparation with the untreated ones. LSP coverage areas significantly affect the fatigue life of CT specimens, moreover, the specimens treated with 15 mm×60 mm LSP coverage area gain the most obvious fatigue life improvement..

The analytical expression of the electric field is derived on the observation plane for vortex beam after propagation. Based on the derived result, the intensity distribution and the beam size on the observation plane is analyzed. Different from the traditional Gaussian beam, there is no generous definition for vortex beam after propagation. The mean-square width and the equivalent-beam width are put forward to investigate the spreading of vortex beam while propagating. It is shown that the spreading of vortex beam depends on the topological charge and propagation length. The beam with bigger topological charge spreads faster. Calculation results reveal that the equivalent beam length is more suitable to describe the beam size of vortex beam after propagation..

The analytical expression for the effective radius of curvature R of partially coherent Hermite-Gaussian (H-G) array beams propagating through atmospheric turbulence is derived, which is general and can be reduced to several typical cases. It is shown that turbulence results in a decrease of R. For the superposition of the intensity R is less sensitive to turbulence than that for the superposition of the cross-spectral density function. In free space, R of Gaussian Schell-model array beams and Gaussian array beams is larger than that of partially coherent H-G array beams, but it is more affected by turbulence. In free space, R of a single partially coherent H-G beam is smaller than that of the partially coherent H-G array beam, but it is less affected by turbulence. For the superposition of the intensity, the R of fully coherent H-G array beams is larger than that of partially coherent H-G array beams, but it is more affected by turbulence. In general, R is more sensitive to turbulence, if R is larger in free space. Therefore, the R of laser beams with larger R in free space will become smaller than the R of those with smaller R in free space after a certain propagation distance in turbulence..

The unavoidable defects existing in optical components will influence the beam propagation in the optical system. Based on the Fresnel diffraction integral and the definition of angular spectrum, the analytical expressions for the light-intensity distribution and angular spectrum of a Gaussian beam modulated by finite-amplitude modulated defects are derived. The influence of the size and the modulation amplitude of the defects on the intensity distribution and angular spectrum of the beam is also studied. It is shown that the intensity distribution will recover to Gaussian distribution after propagating a certain distance. The larger size of defects is, the longer propagation distance is for the beam recovering to Gaussian distribution. Furthermore, the angular spectrum of the modulated beam in the low-frequency area becomes smaller and the angular spectrum in the high frequency area becomes greater with the increase of the size and the modulation amplitude of the defects..

A method for modeling the longitudinally non-uniform thermal lensing is proposed, the laser rod is divided into N equivalent segments longitudinally for calculations, each can be dealt as lens-like medium, so both the forward and backward transmission matrix of longitudinally non-uniform thermal lensing can be worked out. A quantitative analysis of the fundamental-mode distribution in a plane-parallel cavity is made using transmission matrix. The effect of the dividing number N on waist radius of cavity mode is analyzed, results show waist radius changes with the number N, when N is larger than a certain value, waist radius will tend to stabilization and can get closest to realities. The smallest values of N for the waist radius getting to stabilization are discussed with the variations of the pump power, average pump radius and rare earth ion doping concentration, individually..

The radiation force of focused partially coherent radially polarized doughnut beam acting on a particle (r<λ) in the Rayleigh scattering regime is theoretically studied. Based on the Collins formula, expressions of intensity distribution in the focal region are derived, and the interaction forces between light and the Rayleigh particle are calculated using the Rayleigh scattering theory. Numerical calculations are shown to compare the different radiation forces of a partially coherent radially polarized doughnut beam and a partially coherent linear polarized beam. It is found that the radiation forces in the focal field are obviously different with the different correlation widths, and the particles whose refractive index is lower or higher than the ambient can simultaneously be trapped by use of focused partially coherent radially polarized doughnut beams..

For the beam of a laser diode, the source size is very small and the light beam has a large divergence angle. In addition, in the nonparaxial region the optical field distribution is considerably different from that given by scalar theory. The nonparaxial theory of vector beams should be used to describe these fields. A mathematical model to describe the far-field distribution of the nonparaxial laser diode beam is presented. The laser diode beam propagation is studied by the vector Rayleigh diffraction integrals, and the stationary-phase method is employed to find the asymptotic expansion of the diffraction integral. The propagation expression for nonparaxial laser diode beam is given. The calculated results show the vectorial theory model is more precise in the nonparaxial region..

A new method is employed to study the radiation forces on a transparent plate illuminated by a Gaussian beam under geometric optics model. Unlike optic traps, it depends only on the deference of light pressure to produce the optical lift. According to the law of conservation of momentum, the formula is derived on the basis of angular spectrum theory. The influences of waist radius, transparent plate location and inclination angle are investigated and the distributions of forces are illustrated in longitudinal and transverse components. From the graphical comparison, it is shown that the radiation forces become larger with the waist radius, the distance between transparent plate and the waist radius decreasing. The longitudinal force arrive at the maximum value when the inclination angle is 60°, and the direction always keeps along the z axis. While the transverse forcees along both the positive and negative directions go up to the peak at 70°. The numerical results show that if we choose the appropriate parameters there will be enough transverse forces to conquer the gravity force to move the plate upwards..

Both transverse electric (TE) wave and transverse magnetic (TM) wave exist on condition that pump beams transmit in a bared optical fiber in skew way, additionally for the same number of radial mode order and angular mode number, the wavelength difference between TE and TM waves monotonely increases with fiber diameter decreasing, and monotonely decreases with the refractive index of cladding solution increasing. The observed experimental results, on the basis of excitation mechanics of evanescent wave pumped WGM fiber laser in combination with the analytic asymptotic formula, validate the theoretical value very well..

The causes of the floating-debris on the surface of HoTmYLF melt, the scattering particles and the crack of HoTmYLF crystal during the Czochralski growth are analyzed in this paper. Through elaborately designing of the symmetry temperature field, and adjusting temperature gradient and the crystal growth process parameters, the scattering particles and the crack of the crystal are eliminated effectively. The growth atmosphere with a certain volume CF4 contributes to decreasing the floating-debris on the melt surface effectively, and the influence of the floating-debris on the normal crystal growth are overcome. By above technique ways, high-quality HoTmYLF crystals with the size of (25~30)mm×(100~120)mm are grown. The laser performance test of HoTmYLF crystal shows that under LD double-end-pumped conditions more than 10 W laser at 2.05 μm is achieved, and the laser slope efficiency reaches 41.2%, optical-to-optical efficiency reaches 36.4%..

A nanoflower structure is fabricated on the silver film by a focused 1 kHz femtosecond laser irradiation. By controlling the laser irradiation parameters such as pulse energy, number of pulses and out-of-focus distance, a series of silver nanostructures with respective characteristics are produced. According to the optics and scanning electron microscope (SEM) observations, the formation process of silver nanoflower should be due to the combination of femtosecond laser ablation and successively solidified flow dynamics in molten material. Besides, a possible interference modulation between the incident light field and the induced surface plasmon wave also can be responsible for the formation of silver nanoflower. In the application, the irradiated silver film showed strong surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) effect after soaked in R6G solution..

The influence of interface-continuity of nodules that initiate from 2 μm SiO2 particles on the damaging behaviors of HfO2/SiO2 high reflective coatings is discussed. Two kinds of films with different thickness are manufactured using ion-assistant deposition (IAD) technique. These films have similar distribution of electronic field and absorption; however, the film with larger thickness (double times) has better interface-continuity. The two kinds of films with engineered defects are irradiated by the 1064 nm(10 ns) laser pulse in the way of raster scan. It is found that the nodules in thicker films had higher initial damage threshold and the damage process is relatively slower. It is shown that for the SiO2 particle with diameter of 2 μm, the continuity of the interface between the nodular defects and surrounding layers become better with the increasing film’s thickness, and its resistance to the laser-irradiation also increased..

The sensing probe is a double-layered film structure, in which the low refractive index material is silicon dioxide and the high refractive index material is germanium. The detection principle is based on the changes of refractive index of germanium because of the temperature change, resulting in changes in the reflectivity. Practically, we can get the temperature figures by measuring the reflected power. The line linearization of the sensor, which was obtained over a temperature measurement range of 30 ℃~130 ℃ is 99.85%. The results show that the conclusion can meet the purpose of linearization of fiber temperature sensor..

Common anti-reflective films on ZnS substrate has low hardness and poor protective effect, so these films cannot function in harsh environment. Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films with high infrared transmittance and high hardness is deposited by quasi-molecule laser in vacuum. Composite anti-reflective and protective films with several common materials including DLC films is developed. The deposition parameters and performance of pure DLC films is optimized. A compound graphite target is made by fix a sector of Ge slice onto a round graphite slice. Unhydrogened Ge doped DLC film is deposited by means of quasi-molecule laser ablation of compound graphite target in vacuum. Compare to pure DLC film, Ge doped DLC film on Si or Ge substrate has higher absorbance in infrared (IR) region, lower transmittance and higher SP3 content. Thus pure DLC films is choosen for the composite films. The adhesion performance of the composite films is improved by introducing adhesive coating, optimizing of the thickness of DLC films and so on. The composite films has many advantages such as high tranmittance in far IR region, good adhesion, anti-scratch and so on, it also pass the boiling water test, tape adhesion test and scrub test..

Contrast to the traditional temporal phase shifting interferometry (TPSI), the simultaneous phase shifting interferometry (SPSI) immunes to the time variant error sources such as the vibration but suffers from some new systematical errors caused by the light splitter and polarization phase shifting structures adopted in most SPSI systems. A method is proposed to correct the systematical error in the SPSI, which tests a spherical surface in the SPSI system and obtains the circular carrier interferograms by defocusing, then the power and phase information of each phase shifting interferogram can be calculated using the demodulation method of circular carrier. Guided by these information the systematical errors containing the light splitter, the inaccurate phase shift and the mismatch of interferograms can be corrected respectively. This method is validated by the numerical simulations and experiments, which is suitable for all the SPSI system with light splitter structure..

By calculating the interference fringe density of the tested aspheric surface reflected wave and reference spherical wave in the CCD to record interference pattern, the distribution of fringe density is gotten when source of reference spherical wave is in different positions. To compare the maximum fringe density, the position of source of reference spherical wave while the maximum fringe density is the smallest in CCD is the position of best-fit spherical surface. The spherical wave emitted in above position is the best reference spherical wave. At the same time, the maximum fringe density is also the important basis for choosing CCD in system of testing aspheric surface by digital holography, which is an important technology parameter to evaluating accuracy of a testing system for aspheric surface. The method can be used to fix on best position of reference spherical wave source for inspecting any aspheric surface, which does not require any analytical calculations about aspheric surface function..

One aluminum sample whose surface was treated with anode oxidation and one fiber reinforced plastics sample were used in this study, one side of both samples were milled six flat-bottom wedges with different depth. Pulsed thermography was used to obtain the temperature decay data series, the temperature-time curves of different positions in each wedge were extracted to approximately simulate that the same depth defects were affected with different levels of three-dimensional heat diffusion, and the extracted data can also approximately represent the temperature decay of defects with different ratio of defect size over defect depth (RDSD). The theoretical procedures of thickness measurement were analyzed based on one-dimensional heat conduction model, and the corresponding results were analyzed to compare how the defect size influences the defect depth measurement under the same thickness. The results indicate that the characteristic times of different methods approximately linearly increase with RDSD, and its slope is bigger when defect is deeper or thermal diffusivity is smaller..

Silicon photonics is a novel technique for large-scale optic-electronic integration, with which most kinds of optical devices can be designed. Based on free-carrier plasma dispersion, silicon Mach-Zehnder electro-optic modulator (MZM) can achieve high modulation speed over 10 GHz. Considering the need for modulation speed and power consumption, a kind of silicon MZM based on MOS capacitor electrodes is studied by a simulation method combining electric and optic analytic model. The results show that under the driving voltage of -2 V, when the doping concentration is 1×1015 cm-3, the effective refractive index change of the optical waveguide in silicon MZM is about 1.05×10-5, which results in single modulation arm length of 3.68 cm to realize Vπ and the loss of less than 0.84 dB/cm. When doping concentration is 5×1015 cm-3, the effective refractive index change is only 0.86×10-5, which results in the Vπ length of 4.51 cm and the loss of about 1.36 dB/cm. And varied capacitor electrode structures of silicon MZM may make the visible difference of the modulation performance, including the rise and fall time..

To improve the capability and detection precision of the fiber Bragg sensing system, the novel interrogation technique and a fast wavelength detection algorithm are proposed for the multi-channel fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensing system. With the combination of the numerical simulation and experiment, it is demonstrated that the average precision of interrogation is 2 pm and the resolution is 0.1 pm over the working range of 1525~1585 nm. The system can realize the real-time monitoring of 32 channels more than 1000 sensors. Present work shows that the algorithm described in this paper can reduce the signal noise ratio (SNR) at the input of the system which influences the precision of interrogation. Compared with traditional wavelength detection algorithms, this interrogation method is greatly improved in measurement precision, wavelength range and working reliability. It can well be applied to practical engineering applications..

A format conversion from a non-return-to-zero (NRZ) signal to return-to-zero (RZ) signal is presented based on four-wave mixing (FWM) and cross-phase modulation (XPM) in a silicon optical waveguide. When a NRZ signal acting as the probe and a periodic pulse train as the pump are launched into the silicon waveguide synchronously, the Stokes and anti-Stokes are generated by FWM and the red and blue shifts are induced by XPM in the probe spectrum. Four RZ signals can be then extracted by utilizing appropriate optical bandpass filters (OBPF). The power variations in the Stokes and anti-Stokes due to the change of pump and probe power, the relation between four RZ signal pulse widths and pump pulse width, and the influence of the wavelength detuning of pump to probe on the conversion efficiency etc. are investigated. Furthermore, the pump pulse width affects the qualities of XPM-induced RZ signals. When the pump pulse width ranges from 2 to 15 ps, four high-quality RZ signals can be obtained. And when the pulse width is larger than 15 ps, the RZ signal filtered from blue shift spectrum of the probe is of bad quality..

The properties of two-fold images based on asymmetric interference in PC slab multimode waveguide with an air holes array are investigated. With these image properties, a new kind of 2×2 ultracompact power splitters (PSs) is designed and studied. Arbitrary splitting ratio can be achieved by modifying the effective refractive indices of one pair of air holes in the multimode region. As an example, a 3 dB ultracompact 2×2 power splitter with a size of 16 μm×8 μm, with output efficiency as high as 97% is presented with finite-difference time-domain simulations. The method can be extended for the design of M×N PSs and have potential application for photonic integrated circuits applications..

An appropriate filter function is the key to successful wavefront retrieval for the wavefront sensor based on pupil phase diversity. The effects of kind and size of filter function on phase retrieval are investigated through several kinds of filter functions and different sizes of filter functions based on the mode of wavefront sensor and Zernike decomposition. Simulation results show that the kind of filter function has almost no effect on retrieval effect as long as the size of filter function is within an appropriate range, such as peak vale (PV) is between π rad and 3π rad for the defocus and PV is less than or equal to π rad for the sphere. The restoring accuracy is gradually decreasing as increasing of filter function size, such as PV is bigger than 3π rad for the defocus and π rad for the sphere. In real application, the kind of filter function can be chosen based on the cost and complex of making filter function while the size of filter function is within an appropriate range..

It is a disadvantage for ballistic missile to escape interceptor having no detector to get information of interceptor. To resolve this problem, the algorithm to locate interceptor by the detection of space tracking and surveillance system (STSS) single infrared detector with the support of missile navigation information is proposed. If interceptor is captured by IR detector, it must locate in the line of sight from detector to interceptor. During the head-on interception, exoatmospheric kill vehicle (EKV) locates in the ballistic plane of penetration missile. The intersection point of detector measurement sight line and penetration missile′s ballistic plane is the position of interceptor. The feasibility that STSS infrared sensor can detect the EKV is demonstrated. Then the algorithm implement approach is expatiated and the numeral simulation of the localization algorithm is carried out. Finally, the localization error and its reasons are analyzed. It is indicated that the algorithm can provide a method for missile to locate the position of interceptor..

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensing technique has a very high refractive-index (RI) resolution. However, this RI resolution is very sensitive to the thickness of metal films, deteriorating the adaptability of SPR sensors. The sensitivity of RI resolution of a spectral SPR sensor to the thickness of metal films is reduced by a technique called "polarization interferometry (PI)". That the PI technique could reduce the minimum of the SPR spectrum is experimentally demonstrated, and the RI resolution of the sensors with non-optimal metal films is improved. RI resolution ranging from 3.9×10-7 to 8.1×10-7 refractive index unit (RIU) is achieved with the thickness of the Au film ranging from 28.16 to 54.38 nm..

In order to get the right lidar data, a well alignment of transmitter-receiver optical system is essential. To get right lidar data when the laser beam moves slightly, it is necessary to adjust the beam to the center of the telescope field of view. The laser sweeps the space describing a spiral in the plane at the beginning until a small part of the beam is detected by the telescope. Then a cross scanning of beam is presented to adjust the laser beam until it falls in the center of the telescope field of view. A dedicated software has been developed to execute the self-alignment procedure. The self-alignment of transmitter-receiver optical system can be accomplished with a single click..

To retrieve the gas concentration accurately and rapidly, a new quantitative analysis technique based on Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy of interval extreme learning machine (ELM) model is proposed. Based on the idea of interval division, this approach firstly divides the whole spectrum into several subintervals, secondly establishes quantitative analysis model corresponding to each subinterval with ELM method, and finally selects the best subinterval combinations according to the determination coefficient of each model. Based on the above approach, wavelengths are selected in the spectrum of NO and NO2, and then establishs the quantitative analysis model using the selected spectrum combinations, respectively. The experimental results showed that, the testing set determination coefficient of NO and NO2 are 0.9999 and 0.9997, respectively. The outcome indicates that, compared with Interval partial least squares method, the proposed Interval ELM method can establish quantitative analysis model more rapidly and accurately..

The radius of anterior and posterior corneal surface, central corneal thickness and Q value of anterior and posterior corneal surface are obtained. Based on the corneal data, the effects of equivalent refractive index and error in radius of curvature on the corneal vergence measurement after refractive surgery are studied theoretically. The measurement error induced by equivalent refractive index and error in radius of curvature increases with the Q value of corneal anterior surface (P<0.05). Both the equivalent refractive index and error in radius of curvature lead to the overestimation of the corneal vergence, and the additive effects of the equivalent refractive index and error in radius of curvature lead to the overestimation of the corneal vergence by the clinical instruments. In addition, the measurement error linearly relates to the Q value of anterior corneal surface (P<0.05). The error in radius of curvature as well as the equivalent refractive index should be considered in the corneal vergence measurement for eyes after refractive surgery..

A novel pressure sensor based on a high-aspect-ratio structure formed by SU-8 photoresist is proposed. The advantage of the structure lies mainly in the design of separation of sensing membrane deformation with the length change of Fabry-Perot (F-P) cavity, which restricts the linear measurement in most traditional pressure sensors. The sensor is based on F-P interferometer and phase demodulation method. The structural parameters have been ascertained, which will be dealt with during sensor fabrication through numerical simulation. The main sensing elements of the designed model include a silicon membrane and a square column on it. The membrane is with diaphragm thickness of 100 μm and radius of 1500 μm. Meanwhile, the square column is with the dimension of 100 μm×100 μm×400 μm. The sensitivity of the structure model is presented as 2.606 μm/MPa from simulation. Under the guidance of the simulations, the fundamental processing is defined..

Through the analysis of electric polarization angle difference between surface and bulk scattering by first-order perturbation angle-resolved scattering theory, the electric polarization angle between surface and bulk scattering is constant when incidence angle and scattering angle are decided. So polarization angle of polarizer and analyzer are controlled to eliminate surface scattering or bulk scattering, and the bulk scattering or surface scattering can be detertal independently. A method in theoritical is applied to eliminating surface or bulk scattering of transparent substrate in this paper, when scattering plane in the incident plane and polarizer angle is 45°, through the numerical study, the analyzer angle is gotten in s-p plane. Thus, the surface scattering or bulk scattering is obtained to study surface roughness or bulk inhomogeneous..

At present, Some devices based on subwavelength metallic structures and working in microwave regime have been designed due to the special optical properties of subwavelength artificial materials. However, in terahertz (THz) regime, because of the small size and the limit of source and detection of THz wave, THz functional devices develop slowly. For developing THz filters, by finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method, the optical properties of an array of subwavelength metallic bars′ combinations are studied in this article. The results show that several absorption peaks appear in the transmission spectra when a unit cell of the structure contains several bars. So, multi-band filter can be made on the basis of the property. In addition, by changing the structure, wideband filter can be realized in THz regime..

A new detection system for detecting terahertz (THz) wave radiation is described. The niobium nitride and aluminium are used to fabricate the bi-material micro-cantilever arrays. The role of the niobium nitride is to absorb THz wave radiation, and the aluminium is the deformation material. The bi-material of niobium nitride and aluminium has the characters of a large difference in thermal expansion coefficient and deformation after absorbing heat, so it can combine the technology of bi-material micro-cantilever arrays detecting infrared and realize the detection of THz wave. The micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) technology is adopted to fabricate the substrate-free bi-material micro-cantilever arrays. In order to prevent the heat diffusion, the micro-cantilever is placed in a vacuum chamber which has the function of vibration prevention, and the mechanical pump and molecular pump are used to keep the high vacuum for improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the detection system. The reflection-type visible light optical readout way is used to acquire the THz wave information indirectly. Furthermore, the method of difference processing is used to process image for improving resolution of the system..

A terahertz (THz) imaging system and the image formation is based on the theory of compressed sensing (CS) is described. CS combines sampling and compression into a single non-adaptive linear measurement process, and then reconstructs the original image by using measurements based on reconstruction algorithm. It is abtained that a single intensity value by measuring the inner of a single mask and original image and a series of measurements with the same number of masks. CS permits the reconstruction of a N pixel×N pixel image using much fewer than N2 measurements to reduce the imaging time. This approach eliminates the need for raster scanning of the object or the THz beam, while maintaining the high sensitivity of a single-element detector. The experiment using a backward wave oscillator (BWO) which is a continuous-wave THz source and get a preliminary test result..

A reference-free spectroscopic analysis method for terahertz (THz) transmission and reflection measurement is presented. The absorption features of weakly polarized materials (RDX, 2,4-DNT and HMX) are extracted without the reference signal. For transmission spectroscopy, the absorption peaks can be located from the negative first-order derivative of the sample signal phase divided by the frequency. The absorption signatures of the reflection spectroscopy of the materials are extracted directly from the second-order derivative of the phase of the sample beam with respect to frequency. For reflection spectroscopy, the absorption signatures of the materials are extracted directly from the second-order derivative of the phase of the sample beam with respect to frequency. This technique provides a straightforward and fast solution to solve the phase-retrieval problem in reflection fime-domain spectroscopy (RTDS) and eliminates the “misplacement error”..

Based on finite difference time domain (FDTD) method, the numerical simulation of filtering characteristics of the two dimensional metal grid which include the well-shaped grid, the array of complementary square metallic pill and the cross wire-hole array are carried out. The results show that the well-shaped metal grid structure achieves a high-pass of filter function, the array of square metallic pill achieves a low-pass of filter function, and the cross wire-hole array structure achieves a band-pass of filter function. Simulation results show that, with the increasing of the period the cut-off frequency of high-pass filter and low-pass filter move to low-frequency, and the center frequency allowed by the cross wire-hole array similarly moves to the low-frequency. The result of the multi-layer structure of the cross wire-hole array shows that, the rising edge and the falling edge become very steep when the spacing between layers is 20 μm and the more than 5 layers are used which greatly improved the filtering performance..

A real-time imaging system for terahertz (THz) radiation is presented. The key component of the system is the focal plane array (FPA). Which is a bi-material micro-electro mechanical systems (MEMS) detector array optimized for infrared wave lengths. In order to get a better THz image, the paper presents a modified FPA for THz region. Two main methods are explored to improve the detector performance in the THz region. The first way identified is the use of novel optical readout system based on surface plasma resonator (SPR). The second detector improvement approach involving the change of the micro-cantilever structure that the cantilever of each pixel can shift in vertical direction. A model of one pixel is set up to optimize the structure. Computer simulation results show that both approaches are effective. The manufacturing of the proposed detector are also discussed. The technological investigation shows that it is feasible to employ sacrificial layer technique related to MEMS technology..

The numerical simulation is applied to analyze Terahertz (THz) transmission properties of the asymmetrical cross periodic metallic structures, which is based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The results show that there exists the band elimination in the THz transmission spectrum for the cross metallic structures. When we investigate the effect of THz transmission properties caused by the offset and keep the length, width and period of the metallic structures unchanged, the frequency location of the transmission depression moves towards low frequency as increasing the offset of one metallic. By rotating the sample and changing the polarization of THz electric field related to the direction of one metallic, THz transmission of the asymmetrical cross metallic structure is strongly sensitive to the polarization, while the symmetrical cross structure is independent of THz polarization..

We present an experimental terahertz (THz) spectroscopic investigation of amino acid using an air-breakdown-coherent detection (ABCD) system. The strong and ultra-broadband (0.1~10 THz) terahertz radiations generated by two-color laser induced air plasma and measured by coherent heterodyne detection. The broadband THz reflection spectra of L-lysine (C6H14N2O2) and L-arginine (C6H14N4O2) are obtained. To solve the phase-retrieval problem in reflective THz time-domain spectroscopy (TDS), the absorption signatures of the materials are extracted directly from the first derivative of the relative reflectance with respect to frequency. The absorption features of the two amino acids are characterized in the 0.5~6 THz region. It is found that both the two amino acids have an absorption peak at 1.10 THz..

In order to improve the object identification capacity of our passive human terahertz imaging system, a passive terahertz image reconstruction algorithm is put forward using deconvolution method. First the main reasons of image degradation are analyzed according to the basic imaging principle of the system. Then the original terahertz images are de-noised as preprocessing course. Afterwards the images are reconstructed by deconvolution method using Gaussian point spread function, so the image resolution is improved. Their grayscales are corrected. The original human terahertz images are processed and resulting images with higher definition and better object identification capability are obtained. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is able to effectively improve the image quality of our passive human terahertz imaging system. It can help the observers detect the contrabands hidden in the clothes of imaging subjects more quickly and accurately, which consequently strengthens the practicability of our imaging system..
