Liu Huanlin, Zhu Pingxin, Chen Yong, and Lin Zhenyu
Indoor visible light communication (VLC) based on light-emitting diodes (LED) can meet the needs of illuminance and high-rate data communications. However, the optical power and illuminance intensity distributions for the downlink of a VLC system on the same receiving plane are nonuniform owing to the LED Lambertian raIndoor visible light communication (VLC) based on light-emitting diodes (LED) can meet the needs of illuminance and high-rate data communications. However, the optical power and illuminance intensity distributions for the downlink of a VLC system on the same receiving plane are nonuniform owing to the LED Lambertian radiation pattern, the inherent ray multipath effect, and so on. Thus, it is difficult to ensure the fairness of communication services. An improved genetic simulated annealing algorithm (IGSAA) is proposed to search a set of optimal power regulating factors and adjust the transmitting power of LED arrays. In the IGSAA, the adaptive function is designed in the view of the received power differences among different positions on the receiving plane. A two-point crossover operation mode is used and a adaptive mutation probability is designed based on the optimal chromosome information of the population and the evolutional generation to enhance the search ability of the algorithm. Besides, to maintain the diversity of population, the probability crossover and mutation methods based on subgroup division are used to increase the population diversity. The numerical results show that the proposed IGSAA can effectively improve the coverage uniformity of an indoor VLC system within limited evolutional generations..

Based on the principle of optical mixer, the relationship among the polarization state of the signal light, the intermediate frequency signal and the mixing efficiency is deduced, The amplitude of the intermediate frequency signal is used as feedback control signal to increase the mixing efficiency, and a single particle optimization algorithm for coherent optical communication systems is designed. Experimental results show that in closed loop state, the amplitude of the intermediate frequency signal increases rapidly, the mixing efficiency increases about 64%, and the fluctuation variance of amplitude of intermediate frequency signal decreases to 0.001.

First, a small aperture filter and an annular pupil filter are used as two pupils to form a composite light field for scanning an object and extracting the edge information of an object. Then, the selective extraction of the anisotropy of an object is achieved by moving and destroying the symmetry of an annular pupil filter and simultaneously selecting two identical annular pupil filters. The computer simulation results show that the selective edge extraction of isotropy and anisotropy can be well achieved by using annular pupil filters in an optical scanning holography system..

The complexity and volume of the microwave photon radar system can be greatly reduced if the phase shift is completed while the microwave photon frequency conversion is realized. A microwave photonic frequency conversion and phase-shifting method is proposed based on the optoelectronic oscillator loop. The fundamental frequency microwave signal is up-converted by using the photoelectric oscillation loop. The 1.6-21.16 GHz tunable up-conversion signal is regenerated by adjusting the frequency of the optoelectronic oscillator. The tuning range can reach 50.4° by adjusting the output wavelength of the tunable laser and using the delay effect of dispersion compensating fiber to change the phase of up-conversion signal. The two technologies of microwave photon frequency conversion and phase shifting are combined, which not only extend application scope of optoelectronic oscillator, but also give some references to the application of microwave photon radar..

An unpumped polarization maintaining Tm-doped fiber (PM-TDF) and a narrowband F-P filter are combined to realize the single longitudinal mode lasing operation and ultra narrow linewidth. Experimental results show that the proposed laser is stably operating at central wavelength of 1942.03 nm and the optical signal-to-noise ratio is 63 dB at room temperature. Through 100 minutes of continuous measurement, the output power fluctuation is less than 0.62 dB and the center wavelength shift is less than the minimum resolution of the spectrometer of 0.05 nm. This indicates that it has good stability for a certain period of time. Through the linewidth measurement based on frequency noise, linewidth of the laser under the measuring time of 0.01 s and 0.1 s are 300 Hz and 3 kHz, respectively. The proposal will be applied significantly in the field where the longitudinal mode and linewidth specificity of a laser are strictly required for 2 μm wave band..

And a servo-hydraulic fatigue test machine is employed to implement the fatigue experiments on samples without and with LSP to obtain the fatigue crack growth rate curves. In addition, a scanning electron microscope (SEM) is applied to detect the fracture morphology at different crack growth stages. The experimental results indicate that LSP can not only cause plastic deformation to a maximum value of 25 μm and form compressive residual stress with a maximum value of -218 MPa on the sample surface, bust also transfer the crack source to the inside of the sample. And the crack growth rate at the shocked region is significantly retarded by LSP. The validity of utilizing LSP to improve the fatigue resistance of 304 stainless steel can be verified according to the fatigue crack growth rate curves..

The microstructure and the high-temperature oxidation behaviors are analyzed in detail under the condition of 750 ℃/100 h. The results show that the ultrasonic vibration does not change the phase compositions of cladding layers and only more uniform and fine equiaxed structures are formed in the near surface layers. After high-temperature oxidation for 100 h, the coating follows the parabolic oxidation rule. Compared with those of traditional laser cladded coatings, the oxidation films on the surfaces of coatings by ultrasonic vibration assisted laser cladding are finer and denser, and there are no obvious oxidative cracks and spalling defects. Meanwhile a large number of high-temperature CoCr2O4 spinel phases with good stability are generated. The oxidation weight gain and oxidation index are reduced by 19.2% and 50.8%, respectively.

The influence of laser linear energy density η on microstructures, carbon loss and micro-hardness of samples is investigated. The results show that the microstructures of SLM-formed 4Cr5MoSiV1 die steel samples are mainly martensite and a little amount of residual austenite. The decarburization reaction, splashing behavior and elemental ablation together cause carbon loss, and the carbon loss rate is as high as 17.7% at η=950 J·m-1. With the increase of η, the grain sizes of samples increase, the carbon loss rate increases and the martensite content decreases. Under the same η, the grain size and the carbon loss rate in the transition zones of samples are the smallest, while those in the heat affected zones are the highest. With the decrease of η, the pore defects become more. When η is too large, the cold cracks appear. When η is 905 J·m-1, the samples possess uniform microstructures, high densities, and relatively high micro-hardness (that in central zone of molten pool is 710.3 HV and that in transition zone is 732.4 HV)..

The effects of process parameters such as laser power, cutting speed, defocusing distance and assistant gas pressure on the kerf quality are systematically investigated. The kerf quality is assessed by the dross height and the fraction of oblique striation zone of the lower part of kerf. The experimental results show that the kerf quality is mainly determined by laser power and assistant gas pressure. The dross height of the kerf is reduced to minimum when laser power increases to 5.4 kW and the range of gas pressure increases to 1100-1500 kPa. Moreover, in order to further improve the kerf quality of medium-thickness aluminum alloys, a simple Laval nozzle is designed and made by the hydrodynamics simulation based on the aerodynamics theory. The experiment with this nozzle discloses shows that the fraction of oblique striation zone is reduced from 0.5 to 0.14, while the dross height does not nearly change..

The results show that the main phaTi-based composite coating is successfully fabricated on Ti811 titanium alloy surface by laser cladding. The phases, microstructures, microhardness, friction and wear resistance of the coating are studied, and the formation mechanism of TiB2-TiC composite mosaic structure is analyzed. The results show that the main phases of the coating are reinforced phases of TiC and TiB2, intermetallic compound Ti2Ni and matrix α-Ti. The misfit between the (0001) face of TiB2 and the (111) face of TiC is only 1.057%, which indicates that TiB2 can be the most effective heterogeneous nucleation core of TiC to form a TiB2-TiC composite structure. Due to dispersion strengthening, solid solution strengthening and fine-grain strengthening effect, the microhardness of the coating can reach 617 HV, which is 1.62 times that of Ti811 titanium alloy. The coating has good friction and wear resistance, its wear volume, wear depth and average friction coefficient are 175×10-3 mm3, 80.13 μm and 0.39, respectively, and the wear volume of the coating is about 26% lower than that of the substrate..

In addition, the Doppler shift is introduced into this beat-frequency signal, which results in the serious broadening and frequency shift in the spectrum of beat-frequency signals. Thus the distance cannot be calculated according to the beat-frequency. To solve this problem, we propose a vibration compensation method based on the four-wave mixing effect, in which the four-wave mixing technology is utilized to generate a new frequency-sweeping signal opposite to the sweeping direction of the original frequency-sweeping signal, and the distance value can be calculated according to the measured beat-frequency signal of two frequency-sweeping signals. The results show that when the sweeping bandwidth is 10 nm, the measurement distance is 5 m and the target has a periodic displacement of 100 μm at a frequency of 2 Hz, the influence of vibration on laser ranging can be effectively eliminated with the vibration-compensation method based on the four-wave mixing effect, and the measurement standard deviation is reduced from 1.062 mm before compensation to 29 μm. In this method, the distance value after elimination of vibration influence can be directly obtained without the need of measuring vibration displacement, and the hardware part of the system is greatly simplified..

For any point in the point cloud, the symmetrical center is the data point in a given direction, and the symmetrical window is constructed with a certain distance.The Kernel function about distance is defined in symmetric windows, and the weighted mean of elevations for the data points within the two windows is calculated. The absolute value of difference between the two weighted mean values is employed as edge magnitude of data point in the direction, and the maximum edge magnitude in all directions is selected as criterion for edge points. Then variances of elevations for the data points within the two windows in the direction corresponding to maximum edge magnitude is calculated, and the boundary points between buildings and ground are extracted by combining the absolute value of the difference between the two variances and the criterion of the edge points. By adjusting the distance between two windows, the maximum absolute value of the difference between the elevation variance in all directions is obtained, and this absolute value is used as the criterion of tree points. The absolute value of the difference between the two variances is used as the criterion of tree points, and the tree points are extracted after removing the junction between the building and the ground from the set of points detected by the criterion. The tree points in point cloud data are filtered by laser propagation characteristics, and then the complete building edges are extracted. The experimental results show that the proposed method effectively overcomes the influence of trees, and the accuracy of building edge extraction is about 80%..

Based on the aerodynamics theory and the related researches abroad, a gas sheath flow jet is designed to achieve the effective measurement of high concentration aerosol particles. First, a group of optimal design parameters are determined according to the simulation analysis by the Gambit and Fluent modules in the large-scale general finite element analysis software of ANSYS, and a real sheath flow jet is made as well. In addition, the simulation results show that the sheath flow jet can compress the diameter of sample air flow from 1 mm to 0.34 mm, and the compression effect is obvious. Then, a kind of experiment scheme is put forward, in which the compression effect of a sheath flow jet is indirectly analyzed using the size distribution errors of a particle counter. Finally, the comparison and analysis of 0.3 μm particle distributions are achieved for 1.0 mm ordinary jet, 0.5 mm ordinary jet and sheath flow jet on the same particle counter. The experimental results show that the sheath flow jet designed here can effectively reduce the overlap rate of dust particles and significantly increase the concentration detection limit of a particle counter. These results verify the feasibility of hydrodynamic analysis and provide an important basis for the optical measurement of high concentration aerosol particles..

Mao Ning, Wei Hongyan, Cai Dongmei, and Jia Peng
The measurement of the topological charges of a composite vortex beam is challenging. Therefore, this study proposes a method to detect the orbital angular momentum of each sub-beam using the light intensity distribution characteristics and diffraction patterns with an elliptical aperture occluding partial azimuth. SimThe measurement of the topological charges of a composite vortex beam is challenging. Therefore, this study proposes a method to detect the orbital angular momentum of each sub-beam using the light intensity distribution characteristics and diffraction patterns with an elliptical aperture occluding partial azimuth. Simulation results reveal that the number of bright stripes and the direction of the tail in the intensity distribution of the composite beam represent the absolute value of the topological charge difference and the symbols of the higher order topological charge, respectively. The number of dark stripes and their distribution characteristics in the diffraction patterns reflect the size and symbol of the low-order topological charge, respectively. Thus, the proposed method can successfully detect the topological charges of composite vortex beams..

We first develop an energy model for the system using optical elements to transform its polarization characteristics. We then establish an optical-system model based on ZEMAX to analyze the influence of the non-ideal performance of optical elements on the visibility of fringe pattern. The simulation results show that the interference pattern is most obvious when the splitting ratios of the beam splitters in the spectroscopic part of the system, the tracking part, and the receiving part are 2∶8, 6∶4, and 5∶5, respectively. The polarization beam splitters in the optical system have little influence on the visibility of the fringe pattern under non-ideal conditions..

The Fano resonance occurs due to the destructive interference between the narrow discrete state formA T-shaped cavity coupled metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide structure with a rectangle cavity is proposed based on the transmission characteristics of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) in a sub-wavelength structure. The Fano resonance occurs due to the destructive interference between the narrow discrete state formed by the T-shaped cavity and the broad continuous state formed by the rectangular cavity. The coupled mode theory (CMT) is adopted to analyze the formation mechanism of Fano resonance. The finite element method is used to simulate this structure and analyze the influences of structural parameters on its refractive index sensing characteristics. The results show that after the optimization of structural parameters, its figure of merit is 6.04×104, and the sensitivity is 1120 nm/RIU. This research can provide a theoretical reference for the integration of photonic circuits and the design of nanoscale sensors in the future..

According to the rigorous coupled wave theory, a suitable control of periodic size, smaller than the ratio between the incident wavelength and the refractive index of materials, makes the high-order diffracted wave as an evanescent wave, and thus the broadband antireflection efficiency of this moth-eye structure is enhanced. The finite difference time domain algorithm is used to investigate the effects of moth-eye structural period, bottom diameter, structural height and top diameter on spectral transmissivity. Moreover, four structural parameters are optimized. In addition, three characteristic wavelengths in the visible, near-infrared and middle-infrared regime are selected for the electric field analysis under a wide-angle incidence. The research results show that in the short-wavelength range, the moth-eye wide-angle anti-reflection performance is determined by the anti-reflection and forward-scattering ability of this structural surface, while in the long-wavelength range, the moth-eye structure is regarded as a ZnS MS plane film, and its spectral properties are mainly affected by the Fabry-Perot interference. This study provides a theoretical basis and a design method for the design of moth-eye wide-angle structures under different wavelengths..

Phase Mismatch Generated in Walk-Off Compensation and Its Compensation Method
Liu Xun, Shen Xueju, Diao Dongmei, and Huang fuyu

However, it is discovered that the conversion efficiency dramatically decreases when one of the cascaded crystals is rotated by 180° along the optical axis in the second harmonic generation experiment based on KTiOPO4 crystal cascading. The theoretical analysis indicates that the crystal rotation of 180° changes the sign of the effective nonlinear coefficient, which is equivalent to the generation of a phase mismatch of π and thus the second harmonic generation conversion efficiency decreases. A method based on air dispersion is proposed for the compensation of phase mismatch, which is characterized by simple configuration, solid temperature stability, low insert loss and low cost if compared with those for the compensation method based on wave plates. The experimental results show that the phase mismatch is compensated by air dispersion and the influence of crystal rotation on second harmonic generation conversion efficiency is eliminated. The validity of the theoretical analysis and the feasibility of the compensation method based on air dispersion are demonstrated..

In this paper, the effects of three factors such as ground reflectivity, emission waveform and laser profile array (LPA) on the echo simulation results are considered, and the contrast experiment is conducted. The optimal simulation method is discussed. In the experiment, a certain research area is selected, and the data of ice, cloud and land elevation satellite (ICESat)/geo-science laser altimeter system (GLAS) is used as the verification data, and the echo simulation accuracy is evaluated by the correlation coefficients. The results show that the echo simulation accuracy can be significantly improved after the actual ground reflectivity and emission waveform are considered, and the correlation coefficient of the simulation results is improved from 0.9337 to 0.9492. Due to the low spatial resolution of the pixels in the LPA, there exists a large error in simulation accuracy. With the increase of pixel resolution by cubic spline interpolation, the simulation accuracy can be improved to 0.9513..

TG-2/MAI CCD Dark Current Characteristics and Its ChannelDependence Analysis and Correction
Guo Junjie, Yao Zhigang, Han Zhigang, Zhao Zengliang, and Yan Wei
Multi-angle Polarization Imager (MAI) uses a back-illuminated area array CCD detector to quantitatively acquire cloud and aerosol parameters. Dark current is one of the main factors affecting the data quality of the area detector CCD and its quantitative application. In order to analyze the characteristics of CCD dark Multi-angle Polarization Imager (MAI) uses a back-illuminated area array CCD detector to quantitatively acquire cloud and aerosol parameters. Dark current is one of the main factors affecting the data quality of the area detector CCD and its quantitative application. In order to analyze the characteristics of CCD dark current and its channel dependence and improve the imaging quality of CCD, based on the analysis of the characteristics of MAI level 0 data, we propose a method for analyzing the dark current characteristics of each channel of MAI based on the nighttime scene. The period from February 2 to 16, 2018, MAI nighttime scene observation experiment is accomplished. Comparing the observations during daytime and nighttime of the MAI light blocking channels, the result shows that there is no significant difference in dark current characteristics observed in daytime and nighttime. Therefore, based on the night observation data, the dark current characteristics of 13 channels of MAI are analyzed. The results show that the distribution of dark current for each channel has some degree of non-uniformity and “bad points”, and the distribution within each channel has good stability, but it is significant difference for each channel. Based on the image method to correct “bad spots”, after correcting the non-uniformity distribution of pixels based on linear, non-linear relationship, the standard deviation of dark current images decrease from 12.1% to 6.9%. Taking the observation of the clear-air ocean as reference, the maximum possible impact of dark current and “bad points” on pixel observations decreased from 9.1% to 3.0%. The analysis results show that dark current monitoring based on nighttime observation can not only monitor the dark current characteristics of each channel, but also handle the channel dependence of dark current relative to setting dark current monitoring channel. Therefore, in the subsequent design of satellite-borne observation instruments, the dark current of each channel can be directly monitored and corrected by nocturnal observation, and there is not necessary to set a dark current monitoring channel separately, which will reduce the design weight of the load..

The results show that the By analyzing monitoring data of atmospheric pollutions in Meiyu season measured by AML-2 mobile lidar, we study the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of aerosol and ozone in troposphere over Hefei in Meiyu season, and analyze the effect of precipitation on pollution reduction. The results show that the aerosol extinction coefficient is small in Meiyu season and decreases with the increase of altitude on the whole. At 0.5 km, the extinction coefficient is from 0.1 km-1 to 0.18 km-1 in multiple days in Meiyu season. Continuous precipitation plays a significant role in reducing aerosol concentration, the mean aerosol extinction coefficient before Meiyu season and in Meiyu season is 0.37 km-1 and 0.14 km-1, respectively. The temporal and spatial variation characteristics of ozone are obvious in Meiyu season. The ozone concentration decreases with the increase of altitude and shows large daily variation. In June 20 and 24, 2008, the difference of mass concentration of ozone at 0.4 km is about 59.5 μg/m3. Compared with concentration of ozone before Meiyu season, the concentration in Meiyu season is greatly reduced with the maximum difference up to 41.8 μg/m3 at the same height..

The carbon target is ablated with a 1064 nm Nd∶YAG laser. The early emission spectrum is continuous spectrum, and the electron temperature of the carbon plasma is estimated by using the black body radiation formula. When the line spectrum appears, the electron temperature is calculated by Boltzmann mapping method, and the evolutions of electron temperature and density with time and the influence of different pressures on the evolutions are observed. The results show that the changes of the temperature and density of electrons are consistent with time under different air pressure conditions. And as the gas pressure increases, the plasma is limited. As the collision between particles increases, the electron temperature and electron density increase. Graphene films are deposited at pressure of 0.01 Pa..

For the library matching, especially for the mixture spectrum, the single matching feature can not fully reflect the similarity between the measured sample spectrum and the spectral spectrum in the library. The spectral matching needs to comprehensively consider multiple matching features. In this paper, a new spectral integration matching method is proposed by using the logistic regression mathematical model to fuse the peak matching coefficient, the non-negative least squares matching coefficient and the cosine matching coefficient. The new method takes into account both the spectral peak information and full spectrum information of the sample. The experiment results based on the Raman spectroscopy library matching of 20 kinds of amino acid mixtures show that the spectral integration matching method has lower false positive rate..

The photoelectric characteristics of gallium arsenide make the peripheral circular closed loop (PCCL) in a metamaterial structure respond to electromagnetic waves with different frequencies under An active electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) metamaterial is designed based on photosensitive gallium arsenide. The photoelectric characteristics of gallium arsenide make the peripheral circular closed loop (PCCL) in a metamaterial structure respond to electromagnetic waves with different frequencies under different illumination conditions. It is coupled with its central split ring resonators (CSRRs) and thus a strong EIT effect is produced at two frequencies of 0.7 THz and 1.5 THz. The conductivity of gallium arsenide is changed by adjustment of light intensity, and the structures of surface metal rings are dismantled and compared. The photosensitivity of this metamaterial structure and the physical mechanism for the realization of a multiband EIT are analyzed. At the same time, the influences of gallium arsenide width, CSRRs opening size and substrate thickness on EIT are investigated. The simulation results show that this metamaterial structure can be used to achieve a strong hysteresis effect at multiple frequency points and simultaneously a relatively high refractive index sensitivity in the terahertz frequency range under different illumination conditions. It has certain application value in the fields of terahertz buffer devices and refractive index sensing..
