  Abstract:In order to improve the ability of the star sensor to detect limited magnitude, a combination of the improved Cassegrain system, aperture-corrected spherical lens group and field-of-view corrected spherical lens group is adopted to design an optical system of a large aperture catadioptric star sensor capable of correcting astigmatism, field curvature and distortion, with the spectral range of 450~950 nm, the semifield of 1.4°, an entrance pupil diameter of 250 mm and the focal length of 425 mm. According to the calculation of the initial structure parameters of the system based on the aberration theory and the optimization design of Ray tracing in Zemax software, the blocking ratio of the secondary mirror of the optical system reaches 0.43, the energy concentration of the imaging point is 80% within 30 μm, and the maximum distortion is 0.081%. The modulation transfer function is greater than 0.75 at a Nyquist frequency of 34 lp/mm, and the maximum magnification chromatic aberration is 1.138 μm, which meets the imaging requirements of star sensor pairs. Through the tolerance analysis of optical system, in the 20 Monte Carlo analysis results, the best structure is the 13th structure with the performance function of 4.975 16 μm, the worst structure is the 20th structure with the performance function of 7.799 57 μm. Through the performance function analysis of 20 times Monte Carlo structure, the selected tolerance value can well meet the basic requirements of optical system performance, and provide the basis for the errors in the process of processing and installation. © 2020, Science Press.

  Abstract:In this paper, the influence models of different diffraction elements on diffraction efficiency were established, and the diffraction efficiency among single diffraction element, harmonic diffraction element and double diffraction element was compared. The advantages of using double diffraction elements in infrared optical system were analyzed. The average diffraction efficiency of different material combinations was calculated. Based on this, a hybrid infrared dual-band and dual-field optical system suitable for airborne platform was designed. The resolution of the large field of view was 1.5 m@16 km. The long and the short focal length were 960 mm and 480 mm respectively. The zoom function was realized by switching the mirror to ensure the optical axis stability. The simulation results show that the MTF curves are smooth and close to the diffraction limit under the large temperature difference of −40 - +60 ℃. The RMS radius is within the radius of airy spots, and the minimum characteristic size of the binary diffraction surface is 6.9 μm. The design results meet the engineering requirements.

  Abstract:We conduct a power scaling study for the femtosecond dissipative soliton generation with a 10-μm core diameter, fiber-based, compact-sized, and low-cost all-normal-dispersion laser configuration. Laser performance, in terms of spectra distribution, temporal characteristic, average power, and stability in 8 h, for different filtering bandwidths has been, respectively, investigated. In the experiment, the obtainable highest output power and shortest pulse duration are 4.5 W and 85 fs, respectively. To our best knowledge, this is the shortest pulse duration among the reported all-fiber pumped Watt-level mode-locked fiber lasers. © Copyright © 2020 Lv, Yang, Li, Li, Yang, Wang and Zhao.

  Abstract:In this study, a three-dimensional (3D) in-situ laser machining system integrating laser measurement and machining was built using a 3D galvanometer scanner equipped with a side-axis industrial camera. A line structured light measurement model based on a galvanometer scanner was proposed to obtain the 3D information of the workpiece. A height calibration method was proposed to further ensure measurement accuracy, so as to achieve accurate laser focusing. In-situ machining software was developed to realize time-saving and labor-saving 3D laser processing. The feasibility and practicability of this in-situ laser machining system were verified using specific cases. In comparison with the conventional line structured light measurement method, the proposed methods do not require light plane calibration, and do not need additional motion axes for 3D reconstruction; thus they provide technical and cost advantages. The in-situ laser machining system realizes a simple operation process by integrating measurement and machining, which greatly reduces labor and time costs. © 2020 THE AUTHORS

  Abstract:Graded bandgap AlxGa1-xAs/GaAs photocathode with enhanced quantum efficiency is analyzed in this study. We present the relevant quantum efficiency equations by solving onedimensional continuity equations for transmission-mode graded bandgap AlxGa1-xAs/GaAs and standard AlGaAs/GaAs photocathodes. The results show that the built-in electrical field from bandgap gradation efficiently collects photogenerated electrons in the buffer layer such that quantum efficiencies in the short regions are improved in transmission-mode AlxGa1-xAs/GaAs photocathode. The results also show that a thinner buffer layer improves the short-wavelength response of transmission-mode photocathode. Increasing the active layer thickness improves long-wavelength responses but reduces short-wavelength responses. The method presented in this work may provide better estimate of performance and guide the optimum design of graded bandgap AlxGa1-xAs/GaAs photocathode. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

  Abstract:Chirality is common in nature, describing not only the geometrical property of a three-dimensional object, but also an intrinsic feature of an optical field. Chiral optical fields are attracting increasing attention due to their potential applications in chiral light-matter interaction. Here we demonstrate a strategy to realize a controllable chiral optical field by tightly focusing two tailored vector beams in a 4π optical microscopic system. By modulating the wavefronts of the incident vector beams with appropriately designed phase masks, a chiral optical field with multiple spots carrying switchable handedness or controllable chirality can be generated. The location, the number and the handedness of such chiral spots can be arbitrarily adjusted depending on the actual application requirements. In addition to trapping and manipulating multiple particles, this controllable chiral optical field may find applications in enantioselective separation, chiral detection and chiral sensing at the nanoscale. © The Royal Society of Chemistry.

  Abstract:A two-dimensional fluid model was used to investigate the characteristics of a multiple-current-pulse dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) equipped with ring electrodes in helium at atmospheric pressure. The simulation results show that the discharge at peak moment follows the Townsend mode in the DBD with two current pulses in each half cycle. However, when there are three or four current pulses in each half cycle, the discharge mode at the first current peak transforms to the glow mode. Additionally, for the first and third current pulse, the breakdown first occurs in the radial center of the ring electrodes. But for the discharge in the second and fourth current pulse, it ignites from the periphery of the ring electrodes. Moreover, the discharge structure, i.e., the radial spatial distributions of current density, electron density, and electric field at peak moments, shows a feature of alternation between (1) higher current density, electron density, and electric field locating in the radial center of ring electrodes (center-advantage) and (2) higher current density, electron density, and electric field locating in the periphery of ring electrodes (periphery-advantage). This behavior is attributed to the fact that non-uniform surface charge accumulation during the previous discharge has different effects on the electric field in the gas gap in the subsequent discharge. © 2020 Author(s).

  Abstract:Waveguide fabrication with an ultrafast laser system and the mechanism of index modification have been investigated in Corning Gorilla glass. Type I waveguides were obtained when the pulse duration was in the range of 250 fs to 15 ps. With the increase of pulse energy, single-mode waveguides converted to ring-mode waveguides. The variation tendency of Raman peak at 580 cm−1 band is nonmonotonic with the increase of pulse energy, and the negative index change appears finally in the waveguide core. The alkali ions migrated towards the outside with different diffusivities after the laser irradiation. Finally, bend waveguides and hexagon-link waveguide connectors were produced. © 2020 Optical Society of America
