In the research of color digital holography with CCD-recording and lens-imaging, each monochromatic image could be regarded as an objective image projected on the CCD sensitive plane. Based on single fast Fourier transform (1-FFT) reconstruction method via zero-padding, a new reconstruction method in color digital holography is proposed. According to this method, not only the size of reconstructed images in different monochromatic light is same, but also the influence of lens′s chromatic aberration can be taken into account. The study demonstrates that the influence of lens′s chromatic aberration is equivalent to an offset of reconstructed image apart from ideal imaging plane. Fortunately, in digital holography the reconstructed image has a certain focal depth. Thus, the influence of lens′s chromatic aberration may be ignored in most cases. Depending on nominal lens′s focal length supplied by manufacturer, a reconstructed color image that meets practical requirement can be got..

Defect detection of three-dimensional structures is essential for intelligent laser robot system. A method to detect structural damages in robot laser remanufacturing is presented, and a high precision algorithm is proposed to predict edge locations of damaged part. Initial edge points of the damaged parts are identified using normal-vector technique based on accumulation of the characteristic areas of the mesh vertices. A three-step optimization strategy is proposed to solve gaps, branches, and serrated boundaries of the initial edges. Finally, closed defect edges are predicated with high accuracy. The proposed method is fast for structural damage detection with high precision, which is necessary for industrial applications of intelligent laser robot system..

AZ31B magnesium alloys and 201 stainless steel are joined by laser welding-brazing process with Mg based filler. The welding characteristics including influence of processing parameters on weld appearance, mechanical properties and fracture behavior are studied. Results indicate that satisfactory appearance of welds without evident defects can be achieved by dual beam laser-brazing process with filler. A wide processing window is obtained. The tensile-shear test shows that fracture occurred at two places, weld seam and heat affect zone (HAZ) at the welding side of Mg alloys. The maximum shear strength can reach 193 MPa, which is 71% of that of Mg base metal. The microstructure observed indicates that seam and HAZ are weak parts, which results in failure of joint due to presence of coarse grains. Metallurgical reaction occurs at the brazing side, where reaction layer with thickness of 1~2 μm forms..

Finally, with the developed powder feeding nozzle for powder together, laser cladding forming test and so on, validates the experimental effect of powder feeding nozzle..

The fluxless fusion welding-brazing result between 6061 aluminum alloy and galvanized steel with filler material is studied by using rectangular laser beam. The dependence of the mechanical properties on solidification behavior is established based on the joint formation and the weld microstructure. The results indicate that a fusion welding-brazing weld of AA6061 and galvanized steel without flux can be achieved using the welding with filler powder. By optimizing the welding parameters, the favorable weld without crack and porosity can be achieved. The weld width and the thickness of intermetallic compounds layer increase with laser energy input increasing. The intermetallic in the weld is composed of Al-Fe and Al-Fe-Si system phases. Specimens are fractured at the weld/steel interface with the brittle characteristic during tensile test. The weakness of the joint is the weld interface. The maximum intensity of 152.5 N/mm is obtained. Al5Fe2Zn0.4 and α-Al are found in the fracture surface on the aluminum side. The intensity of joint is both determined by weld width and the thickness of intermetallic compound layer..

Supersonic chemical oxygen iodine laser is a complex process including flow, chemical reactions and lasing. In process of power extraction, output of laser has a direct influence on flow fields and species, which will affect beam quality and power of lasers. Influence of power extraction on inner flow field of the laser has been numerically investigated based on computational fluid dynamic coupling procedures of paraxial wave function. Numerical results show that as power extraction process takes place, consumption of singlet delta oxygen is enhanced since pumping reaction is accelerated, concentration of iodine molecule is elevated, and changing direction of intracavity temperature via power extraction process depends on extraction efficiency. Intracavity temperature arises in high extraction efficiency cases and decreases in low extraction efficiency cases. Computational method in this paper provides an effective tool for research and development of chemical oxygen iodine lasers..

In order to describe the acoustic wave quantitatively induced by laser breakdown, an improved method for computing underwater acoustic wave induced by laser breakdown is presented based on model of point source. Acoustic wave induced by laser breakdown with single and multiple regions is computed based on wave equation and underwater explosion theory. The characteristic of acoustic signal such as pressure waveform, sound source level, transmitting and directivity is analyzed quantitatively, and it is verified through the experiment data contrast. The results show that the coincidence between the computed and experimental data validates the theoretical model. As the laser energy increases from 0.1 J to 0.8 J, the sound source level increases from 182.4 dB to 188.2 dB, but when the laser energy exceeds 0.3 J, sound source changes slightly. The power of acoustic signal is highest in vertical direction of cylindrical region of plasma, and lowest in parallel direction. The intensity of acoustic wave makes an inverse proportion to the square of distance in all directions..

In order to resolve the complicated structure and higher cost problems with current vectorial polarized beams (VPB) generating devices, a new method of generating vectorial polarized beams is proposed by using a ring device with many linear polarizer components concentric circles which is called polarization axis finder (PAF). Based on the special structure property of PAF, nature light emitted by a light emitting diode (LED) encounters the PAF, and then the azimuthally polarized beam (APB) is formed. A polarization transformation of APB to radially polarized beam (RPB) is consisted of two half-wave plates with angle of 45° between the two fast axes. The intensity distributions with different polarizer directions for vectorial polarized beams are observed. The experimental results generally agree with the results previously reported, which can verify the validity and practicality of this method..

The diffraction efficiency of compression gratings in chirped-pulse amplification is very crucial to obtain terawatt femtosecond laser. Although the gratings are located in vacuum chamber with oil free, the gratings illuminated by laser beam are still subjected to carbon contamination in the vacuum condition, and results in degradation of diffraction efficiency. Moreover, additional energy deposition on the surface of grating will lead to irreversible changes of the grating structure or even catastrophic damage. A plasma cleaning technique is introduced to realize cleaning of carbon layer on the grating. The diffraction efficiency of grating is obviously improved after cleaning. It is demonstrated that the plasma cleaning is an effective on-line technique to repeatedly recover the high efficiency of compression gratings before damage occurs due to excessive carbon deposition..

In order to solve the manual detection drawbacks of laser gyroscope cavity adjustment, such as low quality and low efficiency, a multi-sensor information fusion detection method is proposed using a CCD camera and a photomultiplier. The center of the facula and the diaphragm and the loss of laser gyroscope are obtained and then transmitted to the fusion center. After fusion calculation, the integrated judgment is produced. The fusion system utilizes the momentum back-propagation neural network (BPNN) to fuse the multi-source information and output the final decision. And according to the modes of the detected signals and output decision, a three layers topology structure including an input layer, a hidden layer and an output layer is designed. The experimental results indicate that the accuracy of the proposed cavity adjustment detection method is 93.81%, which is higher than the manual step detection method using a single sensor about 6%..

The evolution of spikes formed on silicon surface by irradiating femtosecond laser pulses in SF6 as the increase of incident pulse energy is experimentally investigated. The spike height increases with the increase of pulse energy at first and then decreases with the pulse energy continuously increasing. The increase of spike height is all due to the material ejection at the initial stage. While the high energy can not penetrate into the deep layer of silicon completely during the initial several hundreds of laser pulses, more and more energy accumulates on the topmost layer and the silicon surface is maintained in the molten state, which hinders the formation of spike structure. This leads the decrease of the effective number of pulses interacting with silicon, together with the decrease of the spike height..

A series of TiO2 single films with different oxygen partial pressures and baking temperatures are prepared by electron beam evaporation. Both the absorption and the laser induced damage threshold (LIDT) at the wavelength of 1064 nm are measured. The results show that by improving oxygen partial pressure or reducing baking temperature, the film absorption can be reduced obviously. As for the LIDT of the TiO2 films at 1064 nm, it is affected by not only the absorption but also the quality of the substrate surface. When the absorption of the coating is high, the intrinsic absorption is dominant in the laser damage process. However, when the absorption of the coating is low enough, even bits of impurities at the surface of the substrate lead to a sharp decline of the LIDT..

WSx solid lubrication films are deposited on monocrystalline silicon substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The composition, morphology and microstructure of the films are characterized by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffractometer respectively. The tribological behavior is investigated using a ball-on-disk tribometer in atmosphere (relative humidity is 50%~55%). The results show that the composition of the film was controllable while the atom fraction ratio of sulfur to tungsten ranges from 1.05 to 3.75 and the friction coefficient ranges from 0.1 to 0.2. The friction coefficient and film quality deteriorates dramaticly when the ratio of sulfur to tungsten exceeds 2.0. It is well-established that the rank of main influence factors related to the ratio of sulfur to tungsten of the WSx films are argon pressure, temperature, target-substrate distance and laser flux by orthogonal test, and a near-stoichiometric WSx film with dense structure could be grown under optimized growth conditions, including deposit temperature at 150 ℃, distance between target and substrate at 45 mm and laser flux at 5 J/cm2 and argon pressure at 1 Pa..

In order to realize precise diagnostics for pico-second pulse of peta-watt laser, an auto-correlator especially for single shot pico-second pulse is developed. Optical elements with no dispersion are used in this pico-second auto-correlator′s design, which could improve its precise. Three methods are adopted to testify its characters. Self-calibration is used for time resolution. Over-range is used for time range. Limitation is used for impulse response function. Experiments results show that its time resolution is 0.1 ps/pixel, its time range is 26 ps, and its impulse response function value is 300 fs. So this auto-correlator can fulfill the requirement of precised measurement on pulse width for chirped pulse of pico-second peta-watt laser..

Frequency stability of two independent lasers with the same model is measured by using beat frequency technology. By using the theory of beat frequency, frequency stability of the beat signal is deduced, which can be expressed by the sum of squares of the frequency stability of the reference laser and the measured laser. From the above relationship, the frequency stability of measured laser with the same model with reference laser can be obtained. Two independent lasers (TLB-6017) with the same model produced by New Focus company are used in the experimental measurement, and the results show that the frequency stability of the measured laser is about 1.36×10-8 and the frequency shift is 5.1 MHz at the averaging time of 1 s. Frequency stability is in the same level with the technical specification (frequency stability is about 1×10-8 and frequency shift is about 5 MHz at the averaging time of 1 s), and the relative error of frequency shift is about 2%. The provided method avoids conventional limitations which need a higher stability laser as reference laser..

Based on the rotating-compensator ellipsometry (RCE), a method of phase retardation measurement of wave plates based on the self-calibration method is presented. The new method takes retardation of compensator as an unknown parameter, constructs four nonlinear equations, and calculates the retardation of wave plates under test. The method uses the self-calibration of compensator to eliminate the systematic error caused by its retardation′s inaccurate calibration. Especially, it is more convenient for retardation measurement in many wavelengths. Based on this, the measuring accuracy of system is analyzed and simulated. It is found that the maximal systematic error and random error are 0.036° and 0.04°, respectively, over all the samples. Besides, a quarter wave plate (QWP), a half wave plate (HWP), a 127° wave plate and the air (without sample) are measured at 517.3, 525.0 and 532.4 nm, respectively, to evaluate the performance of the system, where the retardation of air indicates the measuring accuracy of the system, and is consistent with error analysis..

Based on coupled-mode theory and transfer matrix method, the general transfer matrix for evaluating cascaded long-period grating and fiber Bragg grating system (CLBG) is obtained. Through general transfer matrix, the reflection spectrum of CLBG is simulated, and the theoretical simulations agree well with the relationship of two reflected peaks given in the known paper. Effects of the length of fiber between long-period fiber grating (LPG) and fiber Bragg grating (FBG), film refractive index and thickness on coated CLPG are discussed. From simulation results, reflection peaks affected by LPG and FBG in CLBG are sensitive to changes of the film parameters, and resolution on the film refractive index is 2 orders of magnitude higher than that of single coated LPG, which shows that coated CLBG has important application value in sensing field..

A scheme for generation of frequency quadruple optical millimeter-wave signal to overcome chromatic dispersion is proposed. With radio frequency signal phase, bias, modulation index, and base-band signal gain adjustment, a dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator is used to generate frequency quadruple optical millimeter-wave signal only carried by one second-order sideband which solves the problem of time shift of code caused by chromatic dispersion, so the transmission distance is extended greatly. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the eye diagram keeps open and clear even when the optical millimeter-wave signals are transmitted over 120 km and the power penalty is about 0.45 dB after fiber transmission distance of 60 km. Furthermore, due to one pure optical component carrying no signals, a full duplex radio-over-fiber (RoF) link based on frequency reuse is also built to simplify the base station. The bidirectional 2.5 Gbit/s data is successfully transmitted over 40 km standard single mode fiber with less than 0.6 dB power penalty in the simulation..

Multilevel coded modulation (MLCM) scheme is proposed for the application of combination between pulse position modulation (PPM) and binary correct coding. The bits demodulated from one PPM symbol are divided into different subcode channels by using the multilevel labels structure of multilevel coding, and the multiple-step demodulation and decoding (MSDD) algorithm of the scheme is derived with signal set partitioning and maximum-likelihood detection of PPM. Simulation under weak turbulence shows that PPM MLCM gets 0.85 dB gain over single-level coded modulation under the bit-error rate (BER) of 10-6, and it can provide unequal error protection to in formation with different importance. When the subcode types are given, the system with the subcodes configuration in order of error corrective ability in levels, as well as MSDD being used, will have good error performance, much better than direct parallel decoding method..

In structural health monitoring, performance degeneration of optical fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor will seriously affect the whole monitoring system′s stability and accuracy. High temperature, high pressure and many other bad conditions may cause FBG sensor performance degeneration. Therefore, in this paper, the theory that fiber Bragg grating sensor performance degeneration caused by temperature is analyzed. Influences of different kinds of FBG sensor on performance degeneration are analyzed quantitatively by numerical simulation and temperature cycling experiment. The experimental results show that performance degeneration of FBG is related to its own reasons. For normal FBG sensors, its peak value of reflective spectrum decreases with the increasing of the cycle numbers. For FBG sensors containning some hydrogen molecules, with the numbers of cycle increasing, its peak value of reflective spectrum decreases, and its central wavelength shifts towards short wavelength..

Streak tube imaging lidar (STIL) is a new type of flash laser radar. The characteristic of STIL is wide field of view and high resolution. The exact streak data extraction is crucial in the three-dimensional reconstruction of the target. The deviation caused by the noise and CCD sampling has been ignored by the existing peak detection method. It causes deviation when the data of the streak image is extracted. Based on the analysis of the returned waveform and the theory waveform, a method of streak data extraction algorithm is presented and it not only eliminates the deviation but also filters the system noise effectively. A ladder imaging experiment is designed to verify the accuracy of the algorithm. It shows that this algorithm can improve the accuracy of streak data extraction obviously..

The detection performance of range detection laser radar which uses a single Geiger-mode avalenche photodiode (Gm-APD) with single-pulse is reported. Based on the model of single photon detection with a Gm-APD, research on the detection and false alarm probabilities (PD and PFA) with accumulated single-pulse detection at long dead-time is done. Research on the influence on PD and PFA is done, when the location of target bin in the strobe gate and the mean signal photoelectrons vary. The PD and PFA under different numbers of accumulated detection are compared and analyzed. Theory and numerical results show that accumulated detection can improve the detection performance, and when the accumulated number increases to three times, the detection performance can be very significantly improved; good control of the opening time of the strobe gate can significantly improve the detection performance; when Gm-APD receives a laser pulse, only four photoelectrons can make the detection performance best..

Because the signal noise ratio (SNR) of the optoelectronic information in the Brillouin scattering spectrum of distributed sensing systems is too low, the measured inversion becomes very difficult. In order to extract features for Brillouin scattering spectrum of distributed sensing systems in high accuracy, a novel hybrid algorithm based on Levenberg-Marquardt (L-M) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) is proposed. PSO is applied to get a volume of gross unites which served as the initial value of L-M, then output the result of L-M as the final result. This algorithm overcomes the premature local extremum of PSO and excessive dependence for initial value of L-M. It can ensure the efficiency and precision of the value. Numerical results show that the algorithm can be used in different weight ratios, different line widths, low SNR and scattering spectrum parameter estimation in large scope. The error of the hybrid algorithm is 2.18838 MHz with SNR of 10 dB, which is better than the other two. The experimental results indicate that the new algorithm can extract features for Brillouin spectrum with different pulse widths. It can increase the accuracy of Brillouin scattering spectrum..
