Abstract:
The chirp parameter of modulators is an important index of performance evaluation in fiber-optic communicalion system. We deduced the expression of the chirp parameter of LiNbO_3 external modulator with Mach-Zehnder structure. It shows that frequency chirp in this structure modulator is not equal to zero and the effect of bias voltage on the chirp parameter can be eliminated. The effect of DC extinction ratio, applied electrical signal and DC bias voltage was analyzed. It shows that negative chirp can improve the dispersion characteristics of system.

Abstract:
A formula of the axial irradiance distribution of a binary annular aperture is derived in detail by using the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld diffraction integral that is valid to a few wavelengths of the aperture. We calculated and analyzed the axial irradiance distribution throughout the whole space behind the binary annular aperture. The results show that its maximum depth of modulation of the oscillation is sixteen times the incident irradiance and four times that of the circular or annular aperture,and that the optical sectioning strength in the near field is better than in the Fresnel region.In the very near field, the axial irradiance distribution has a variety of subtle effects as changing its aperture parameters. These are of potential interest in photonics and fiber-optics application.

Abstract:
In this paper,the polarization characteristic of the particle group scattering based on Mie scattering theory is analyzed, and the correlative experiment is done with two species of particle ball of different diameters(0.26μm,0.55μm). The result shows the polarity of scattering light of the bigger particle in horizontal direction is smaller than the smaller particle. On the contrary, the polarity of scattering light of the bigger particle in vertical direction is bigger than the smaller particle.

Abstract:
The OCAD optical design software package,which can carry out the national standards and military standards to draw optical system and various accessory (including prism) diagrams automatically according to the optical design data, is introduced. The optical diagrams drawn by OCAD are standard, practical and accurate, and can be used directly in production, which avoid the past hand-drawn work with the Auto CAD and other drawing benches. The OCAD can also use the data files of the other optical design software produced at home and abroad, and can form the data files for the other optical design software for calculation.

Abstract:
Methane is an inflammable and explosive gas and a major constituent of mine atmospheres, natural gas and gas fuels. Becuse gas explosion is a big problem in mining industry,real-time and on-line detection of methane has a critical function both for safety assessment and for control of combustion processes. Based on the mechanism near infrared spectral function both for safety assessment and for control of combustion processes. Based on the mechanism of near infrared spectral absorption of methane, a system using absorbent type optic-fiber for high sensitivity methane detection with DFB LD is demonstrated. Light source modulation harmonic measurement is presented in this paper. The ratio of the fundamental and second-harmonic signal presented can be used for eliminating optical interference. The mathematical model of gas concentration harmonic measurement is built up. The result of methane concentration is also shown. Optical fiber is used as transmission medium,thus the sensor part and measurement circuit can be isolated completely.The safety of the systems is inhanced.

Abstract:
For the unstable Gaussian noise of the CCD image, the conventional method of Fourier transform can not eliminate it,but the wavelet transform is the powerful tools of noise elimination,since the wavelet transform in both the time domain and frequency domain has the excellent localization features, and the arbitrary details of analyzed objects can be focused with gradually detailed time domain or frequency domain step at high frequency. Based on the analysis for the CCD image noise,the noise reduction and edge detection is realized with the method of wavelet transform and histogram division. The results show that the clear image edge can be made out after selecting a proper threshold with the histogram division method.

Abstract:
The multifocus image focus is discussed. Since light imaging system has a limited focus range,all other objects have blurry images to some different degrees besides the focused object,but we often want to acqurire a image on which all objects are clear. In order to get such a image, image fusion method can be applied and two multifocus image can be combined. The property of system function of multifocus imaging system is analyzed according to the circuit and system theory, and the conclusion is that the system function of the optical imaging system is a low pass filter.A multifocus images fusion method based on wavelet packet transform is presented according to the fusion perpose and the property of wavelet packet transform.Two practical multifocus images are fused with the fusion method and a satisfactory clear image is obtained. The experiment results show that the fusion method based on the wavelet packet transform can analyze both the low frequency and high frequency parts of the signal simultaneously at multifocus images.An image on which all objects are clear is provided.

Abstract:
Effect of substrate temperatures (from 120℃ to 300℃) and heat treatment temperature(400℃) on the structure and optical property of TiO2 thin film deposited by electron beam evaporation method is discussed. The XRD analysis results indicates that the structure of TiO2 thin films deposited on common glass at the substrate temperatures of 120℃, 200℃ and 300℃ is amorphous, and after the heat treatment at 400℃ for one hour,the amorphous structure crystallized and the crystal phase is anatase with strong preferred orientation(004) and the size of the crystalline is within 3.6~8.1nm.The analysis on transmittance spectrum of all samples shows that with the substrate temperature increasing, the refractive index of thin films increases, and after heat treatment higher refractive index of the films is raised due to its crystallizing.

Abstract:
At present, the application of optical measurement technique makes the measurement data increase tens of times. This can create the difficulty of reconstruction of CAD model. A new adoptive sampling method based on surface variation is proposed in order to reduce mass data acquired by fringe projection measurement.And the computation method of precision sampling is given. Depending on the surface variation,the adaptive sampling point cloud of object is acquired; the CAD model is reconstructed by the sampling point cloud. The sampling precision and the fitting precision reach 2.3μm and 7.2μm respectively.
