Abstract:
Against the difficult problem of the transient temperature measurement, by using the radiation thermometry technology and contact thermometry technology combined method, we designed a transient high temperature measuring device which consisted of the blackbody radiation temperature sensitive body, the cylindrical metal housing of high strength and the signal conditioning circuit in the housing. Though the proper selection of thermal sensing thin film special material and the rational design of the overall structure, as well as using ANSYS software, we analyzed the transient high temperature heat conduction of the blackbody temperature thin film. Analysis shows that when temperature load of 2 000 ℃, 2 500 ℃, 3 000 ℃ applied, the temperature sensor response time was 487.001 s,545.001 s,590.001 s,respectively.This device can overcome the traditional transient temperature sensor shortcoming of bulky, slow response, inconvenience to install and susceptibility to harsh environment factors and so on. It has a good application value in the field of thermometry technology.

Abstract:
An optical system for trapped 199Hg+ in linear ion trap was designed by the Zemax software. The optical system consists of two parts which are optical excitation system and fluorescence collection system. The optical excitation system is composed of 202Hg electrodeless lamp and excitation lens system. The diameter of 15 mm surface light which is produced by 202Hg electrodeless lamp is transformed into rectangular light of 23 mm4 mm by the excitation lens system. The rectangular light excites 199Hg+ atomic transition and then the 199Hg+ radiates fluorescence. The fluorescence is collected by the fluorescence collection system which is composed of collection lens system, filter and photomultiplier tube (PMT). The design results show that the fluorescence emitting surface is imaged well in the PMT whose diameter is 23 mm by the collection lens system. So the fluorescence collection is quite efficient and the collection efficiency is about 3%. Experimental results show that the optical system is completely satisfied for present experiment and it has a high signal to noise ratio (SNR) which is about 20. It makes necessary preparation for application of highperformance 199Hg+ microwave frequency standard.

Abstract:
In consideration of inadequate research on photoelectric direct reading spectrometer used for steel detecting,we presented the Czerny-Turner system design method, discussed the optimization method and verifying method, as well as developed the spectrometer. It adopted cubic polynomial to fit calibration wavelength, and the tested resolution reached 0.225 nm in 436 nm~608 nm all band and 0.135 nm in mid band which could meet the demands of steel detecting. Furthermore, the qualitative analysis method based on multi-frame judgment guaranteed a 1.5% detective limit of 7 kinds of elements. The half quantitative analysis based on fitting spectrum database could offer 2% detective precision of the 25 kinds of samples. They could provide an important reference for the recognition of steel mark.

Abstract:
In order to get the holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal (HPDLC) grating with high diffraction efficiency and perfect morphology, the effect of surface vertical alignment on the properties of HPDLC grating was investigated. Firstly, the effect of the vertical surface treatment on the orientation of liquid crystal molecules was studied. It is found that the vertical anchor effect of liquid crystal decreases with the increase of cell gap and the orientation depth is about 3 m ~ 5 m. Secondary, the characterization experiment of separation was done.And results show that as the cell gap increases, the surface effect on the bulk LC droplets reduces due to the longer distance. For the thinner cell, almost all the LC droplets are confined on the inner surfaces of the substrates which cannot flow and coalesce with the neighboring droplets, so the phase separate is not good. However, if the cell is too thick, the effect of vertical alignment on the LC droplets in the middle of the cell is very small and the bulk droplets are less ordered so that the morphology is similar to those of conventional (without vertical alignment) HPDLC cells. Experimental results indicate that only in the condition of certain surface vertical alignment strength(cell gap is 12 m), the HPDLC with high diffraction efficiency and low scattering loss can be realized.

Abstract:
Aiming at the problem for losing boundary information within the region near the corner point during boundary tracking,the method for judging and searching corner point was studied. On the basis of analyzing the relationship between the radius of extended neighborhood and the location of the corner, the corner point judging rule was proposed and the range in which corner point existed was deduced. The region searching algorithm was proposed to detect the corner point in the deduced range. From the relationship of 5 known boundary points, the algorithm estimated the neighborhood in which the corner point was included, and made the neighborhood contracted to the corner point by selecting appropriate radius. Examinations were performed at test images and side face image. Results show that the boundary points increase form 13 to 21 for test image and from 19 to 37 for side face image, the new method can detect the corner point accurately and can also detect right seeds so that the boundary tracking algorithm can include all contour information.

Abstract:
A method for separating the original image and the conjugate image in the reconstruction of Fourier computer generated hologram (CGH) was studied. According to the analysis on the process of CGH reconstruction by Fourier transform, the method which put the original sampling points into a larger null matrix was used to separate the original image and conjugate image. After the fast Fourier transform with the new matrix, CGH was obtained by Burch coding, then a high pass filter was used to eliminate the influences of interference of background light on the visual impression when image was reconstructed. The degree of separation of the original image and the conjugate image of CGH produced by this method can be controlled with the size of the null matrix, the larger the null matrix, the greater the degree of separation. The experimental results show that the original image and conjugate image of CGH can separate when the null matrix is 4 times of the original size. But in order to filter the zero order light spot easily, the null matrix should be more than 4 times of the original size slightly.

Abstract:
An image segmentation method for effective detection area based on region growing and Hough transformation was proposed in view of the features of actual endoscopic image. Firstly, region growth was used to segment the region of interest (ROI) roughly, there might be missed edge or false edges. Then the image was smoothed to remove noise by morphological processing. Next, the Canny operator was used to detect the edge and suppress the noise at the same time . In the end, Hough transformation, which was applied to detect circles, was conducted to determine the image position of the effective regions. The simulations of 90 groups of actual endoscopic images with Visual C++ 6.0 were done.The experimental result shows that the method can segment the strong light interference and extract the effective detection regions accurately of 88 groups;only 2 of them were not accurate enough.

Abstract:
In order to reduce the uncertainty caused by background light noise when measuring nighttime visibility using digital photogrammetric method, the system based on double light sources was improved. An effective method was adopted to limit CCD field angle by using the shading cylinder. For obtaining the grayscales of the double LED backlights at different distances taken by CCD, computerized image processing was applied for captured images. Then the visibility was derived from extinction coefficient acquired by Allard-s law. The contrast test was done to analyze the gray information in three conditions: in dark background, with or without shading cylinder in light background. Taken the visibility measured in dark background as the standard value,compared with the results from using shading cylinder ,the correlation coefficient and average relative errors are 0.911 3 and 6.87%, while they are 0.322 7 and 23.38% without shading cylinder.It can be seen that, the ability of restraining interference from background noise is enhanced by using shading cylinder, thus more accurate results can be got with measuring nighttime visibility.

Abstract:
The development and application of digital holography has been greatly limited by the insufficient pixel numbers and dynamic range of charge coupled device (CCD). To solve this problem, an arrangement scheme of dual-CCD-s mirroring overlapping position was put forward, based on the information fusion technology. Firstly, the interference image of two spherical waves was used to adjust the dual-CCD-s mirroring overlapping position, and the feasibility of this method was proved. Then in the experiment, the dual-CCD-s position was adjusted in real time by using the off-axis interferometry of spherical wave and plane wave, and the digital interference technology. Finally, the calibration parameters of the dual-CCD-s mirroring overlapping position were given by using the computer digital image processing technology. The experimental results show that, the dual-CCD-s mirroring overlapping position can be precisely adjusted and calibrated by this method, and the error is only 14 m.

Abstract:
A new high-precision assembly technique by combining traditional turnery technique with computer assisted assembly, in an attempt to meet the strict requirements on centering errors of high-precision standard lens, was introduced. First, the tilt-errors of optical axes were managed by turning centering initially, and then with the assistance of high-precision centering errors measurement,shift-error alignment for each lens was conducted. Last,through simulating the optical axis space state by computer,the ration abrade for circle was done precisely at given angle so as to control the tilt-error between each lens.The result indicates that by using this technology, the tilt-error of the lens is less than 5 and the shift-error is within 3 m, thus the design objectives are met.

Surface roughness measurement based on digital holography was carried out. The tested surface roughness parameters were calculated from the surface profile which was mapped from the reconstructed phase distribution of digital hologram. Firstly, the standard calibration plate and high-resolution panel were taken as the tested samples to reconstruct errors and test the repeatability of the digital holography measurement system,involving the lateral size error and the height error. The reconstruction error and repeatability error for lateral size were 1.11%, 0.61%, respectively. And the errors for height were 11%, 1.8%, respectively. Then an ordinary coated reflector was taken as a sample, and its surface roughness values along 3 segments of evaluation length were 0.010 37 m, 0.010 33 m, and 0.009 67 m, respectively(15 sampling lengths).

Abstract:
The accuracy of flash parameters is critical to visual electrophysiological examination. An equivalent circuit model of the flash measurement system was established according to the characteristics of visual electrophysiological flashes. The influence of parameters of the flash measurement system on measurement error of flash waveform, intensity and duration was analyzed theoretically and experimentally. Xeon lamp and LED flash sources were tested. Experiments were carried out to investigate how measurement errors varied with parameters of the measurement system. The method for reducing the measurement errors respect to different application requirements was proposed, as well as the method to eliminate the theoretical errors when measuring the flash duration of LED and the flash intensity, which were demonstrated by experiments. The intensity and duration of LED flash were measured at different system parameters by using the proposed methods. Results demonstrated that the standard deviation of the flash intensity is 0.17% and that of the duration is 0.07%, which can be regarded as constants, showing good consistence with theoretical analysis.

Abstract:
The ultra-precision diamond turning is a significant way to manufacture high- precision diffractive optical elements (DOE); however, this way is unable to achieve compensation machine currently that results in lower machining accuracy. Based on the study on the process of diamond turning and the compensation of surface shape error, and on the analysis of actual measurement data by the surface profile, the normal residual error was calculated between the actual turning curve and the ideal curve to get new machining trace of diamond turning in this paper. The compensation test on DOE of 78 with the diamond turning machine was done, and finally the value of peak value (PV) converges rapidly from 10.4 m to 4.3 m.

Abstract:
The spatial noise on staring array thermal imager restricts its capability in detecting, distinguishing and tracking the long distance targets. To solve the problem in measuring the thermal imager spatial noise, its measuring theory was analyzed and the mathematical model for measuring the spatial noise based on signal transfer function (SiTF) was presented. After removing the temporal noise equivalent temperature difference (NETD) from the noise of a certain group or district or the whole pixels in thermal imager, the spatial NETD model was calculated through analyzing statistically the noise of those pixels. In measuring the SiTF and spatial NETD of cooled MCT320256 thermal imager, when the temperature of the background blackbody is 5 ℃, the SiTF of central district in field of view(FOV) is 27.29 mV/℃, and the spatial NETD is 0.128 ℃. When the temperature of the background blackbody is 20 ℃, the SiTF of central district in FOV is 29.03 mV/℃, and the spatial NETD is 0.121 ℃。The measuring results show that the measuring method can evaluate the influence of spatial noise on the performance of thermal imager.

Abstract:
The determination method of laser damage of thin film and the evaluation method of damage threshold are indispensable for enhancing anti-laser ability of infrared system observation window and its operating performance. The damage characteristics and mechanism of film by pulse laser induced damage were researched. The experiments used by YAG pulsed laser for TiO2 thin film were offered for 1-on-1 way of laser induced. By using the two images taken from charge coupled device (CCD) before and after laser illumination, the matching of the damaged image and the undamaged image was realized, and the difference image measure algorithm was established. The experiments conclude that the different energy measures of TiO2 thin film samples can identify the damage situation:the measure value M0.1, no damage; 0.1M 0.2, mild injuries;0.2M0.5, moderate damage; M0.5, serious injuries. The roughness of thin film samples irradiated by the laser with the energy density of 0.5 J/cm2 increases obviously. The results show that the method of image matching test before and after laser irradiation can realize discrimination of laser-induced film damage.

Abstract:
Pump coupler is the key passive optical device of the high-power fiber laser. Its producing process is the side-fusing of the pump fiber and the main fiber. This producing process can keep the insertion loss of the main fiber low, but the angle between the pump fiber and the main fiber has a great influence on the coupling efficiency. In order to solve this problem, the theoretical model was established according to the structural characteristics of the fused sidepump coupler. The equations of the power and the fiber angle were derived. The simulation results were obtained and were demonstrated by the experiments. The conclusions are as follows: the pump coupling efficiency gradually increases with the decrease of the fiber angle between the pump fiber and the main fiber, but the critical fiber angle exists. When the numerical aperture (NA) of the pump fiber is smaller, the couple efficiency and the critical angle are larger. The critical fiber angle is 9.7 and the maximum coupling efficiency is 96.9% when the pump fiber NA is 0.22. The critical fiber angle is 11.5 and the maximum coupling efficiency is 97.8% when the pump fiber NA is 0.15. The conclusions are instructive for the designs and the productions of the highpower fiber coupler.
