  Abstract:In this paper, a novel type of in-fiber optofluidic Raman self-assembly graphene oxide (GO)/PDDA/Ag NPs SERS sensor for the adenine in DNA is proposed. The microstructured hollow fiber (MHF) has a channel and a suspended core in microscale, which allows the sample to flow into the fiber. Meanwhile, the GO/PDDA/Ag NPs SERS substrates are modified on the MHF core by chemical bond. When the sample is interacted with the evanescent field excited by the suspended core, the on-line SERS signals can be coupled back to the core and be detected. Here, we carry out on-line optofluidic detection on the adenine samples. The results show that the detection limit (LOD) of the samples of is about 1 × 10−14 M. The unwound DNA solution extracted from biological blood is injected into the MHF. Under the action of the hydrogen bond between PDDA with adenine, the adenine base in DNA is successfully detected and the interference of guanine, cytosine and thymine is eliminated. Significantly, this work provides an integrated self-assembled GO/PDDA/Ag NPs SERS adenine sensor in an optofluidic fiber. This rapid, convenient and sensitive Raman detection sensor of adenine in DNA is expected to have more potential applications in HIV, genetics and other fields. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.

  Abstract:The luminescence modulation behavior of lanthanide ion doped materials possesses great potential for applications in sensing, display and anti-counterfeiting devices. Unlike traditional tuning methods for chemical compositions, novel rare-earth doped ferroelectric oxides exhibit attractive luminescence modulation effects via electric polarization engineering, and enrich the development of multifunctional devices. In this work, Sm3+ doped KSr2Nb5O15 ceramics with abundant ferroelectric and luminescent properties were synthesized. The samples show different relaxation behaviors and ferroelectric features upon chemical and structural factors caused by Sm3+ doping, such as average ionic radii, local tolerance factors, and chemical bonds. After polarization at 20 kV/cm for 20 min, a considerable increase (~40%) in the luminescent emission intensity was obtained in 4 mol. % Sm3+ doped KSr2Nb5O15 ceramics. The related luminescence modulation mechanism was attributed to controlling the environmental symmetry around Sm3+ by the electric polarization. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.

  Abstract:According to the real demand of image real-time storage display and real-time tracking display for large field of view and high-speed camera, which was with Camera Link interface, a large field of view image acquisition and SDI display system based on FPGA was designed. FPGA EP2S90F1020 of Altera Company as the core processor and two pieces of SDRAM MT48LC4M32 were used. A method of image real-time zooming based on FPGA and real-time conversion of Bayer format color image to SDI display was proposed. The real-time display of large field of view color video image, which was Camera Link interface, was realized on SDI video image. The experimental results show that the design method can convert the 2 048×2 048, 100 Hz video image of Camera Link interface into 1 920×1 080, 25 Hz or 1 280×720, 25 Hz, or 720×576, 50 Hz SDI display in real time. In the FPGA environment, the whole image processing time is 8.7 ms, which meets the real-time requirements of the system, and provides an effective implementation method for the real-time display of large field of view video image in embedded system. © 2021, Editorial Board of Journal of Infrared and Laser Engineering.

  Abstract:Semiconductor lasers with high power conversion efficiency (PCE) and output power are heavily investigated driven by more energy-efficient commercial applications. In this paper, an asymmetric broad area laser (A-BAL) design is studied and compared with a conventional symmetric broad area laser (S-BAL) design for 808 nm single emitter laser diodes. We present a comparative theoretical and experimental investigation by studying the thermal effects on the laser parameters. The output characteristics and efficiency loss paths for the designs were analyzed. The leakage of carriers was identified as the primary source of the PCE reduction with temperature. Suppressing this leakage by optimization of the A-BAL design, a record continuous-wave PCE of 68% at 25 C and 60.4% at 75 C were achieved for a single emitter laser with 10 W output power. These devices deliver high efficiency at high temperatures with reliable operation achieving 2000 h of an accelerated aging lifetime without failures. © 2021 IOP Publishing Ltd.

  Abstract:Coaxial optical system has a symmetry of revolution. Alignment for this kind of optical system is easy. The desired image quality can be rapidly converged. As for off-Axis optical system, traditional optical alignment method can not be used due to the loss of rotational symmetry. Low initial position accuracy makes installation and adjustment more difficult than usual. In this paper, we aim to solve the alignment problem for off-Axis optical system with the help of machine learning and its powerful numerical fitting ability. We carried out our research on alignment method for an Gregorian off-Axis system. The location of primary mirror is fixed as the optical reference. Alignment process is to adjust posture of secondary mirror to acquire ideal image quality. We use Zemax and Python co-simulation technology to get simulated data. Then multi-layer artificial neural network is utilized to fit the mathematical relationship between misalignments and Zernike coefficients. Given the coefficients, the misalignments can be calculated by the neural network. Finally we conduct alignment experiment to verify the proposed method. The result has proved that this method is a fast and efficient alignment solution for the off-Axis optical systems. © COPYRIGHT SPIE. Downloading of the abstract is permitted for personal use only.

  Abstract:In the field of hyperspectral remote sensing imaging, the demand of indicators for hyperspectral remote resolution, hyperspectral resolution and large width of imaging loads are improved. To solve the problem that the electromagnetic interference (EMI) of the high-speed electronics of spaceborne hyperspectral imaging is becoming more and more intensive, the target design method to enhance the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) capability of the spaceborne hyperspectral imager is proposed, and the implementation of the load on a specific series of high resolution hyperspectral imager verified the effectiveness of the targeted design. In order to seek the theoretical methods and technical implementation methods of EMI design for high-speed hyperspectral imagers, the useful explorations is made to provide a useful reference for the design of other spaceborne high-speed imaging loads for remote sensing. © 2021, Editorial Office of Systems Engineering and Electronics.

  Abstract:The limited depth-of-field (DOF) in optical microscopic imaging systems prevents them from capturing an entirely focused images when the imaged scene is thick and covers a wide range of depth. Specimens lying outside the DOF is defocused and thus blurred, hindering the subsequent observation and analysis. Extended focused imaging aims at yielding a single all-in-focus image by combining the in-focus information from a stack of partially focused images. In this paper, we present a new algorithm for digitally extending the low DOF of a microscopic imaging system. The method is based on the two-scale decomposition of an image into a base layer and a detail layer, both of which contain information of different scales. Then, with the structure tensor, which is uniquely advantageous for autofocusing multi-focal planes, as the focus measure, initial weight maps are generated. The guided filtering is then employed to optimize the weighted averaging scheme for the fusion of the base and detail layers. We examine the proposed algorithm under incoherent and coherent imaging modalities, i.e., bright-field microscopy and digital holographic microscopy. Qualitative and quantitative comparisons with the existing approaches are carried out using extensive experimental data. The results show the advantages and superior performance of the proposed scheme even in the presence of coherent noise. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd

  Abstract:Based on binocular vision, this paper proposes an algorithm for fast and accurate three-dimensional measurement. The binocular 3D measurement system is mainly divided into four parts: binocular calibration, binocular correction, binocular matching and pose calculation. In this paper, an international softwareM is used to achieve camera calibration, the FAST algorithm is used to achieve the extraction of feature points, and the matching method that combines gray-level correlation coefficient (cc) and epipolar constraint is selected. Experiments have verified that this algorithm can accurately achieve three-dimensional pose measurement. © 2021 Journal of Physics: Conference Series.

  Abstract:Polarimetric dehazing methods have good ability in restoring images contaminated by haze. But noise and color distortion come along with the dehazing process, and those methods lack the ability to recover targets of long-distance. Our previous study has shown that the penetration ability of light is related with wavelength, light of long wavelength, especially in the infrared band, receives less attenuation from haze. Based on that fact, we decompose the dehazing process into 16 different spectral bands to achieve the optimized dehazing performance. An infrared band is added to enhance the dehazing performance in short-wavelength channels, thus increases the range of visibility and corrects the color distortion. The dehazed image is reconstructed through image fusion of the dehazed bands. Experimental analyses reveal enhanced details and reduced noise of dehazed images. Particularly, our method works well in retaining the color information of haze contaminated images. The amount of blueshift can be reduced by 71% at least. © 2021 IEEE.

  Abstract:Broad-area diode lasers with high output power and low lateral divergence angle are highly desired for extensive scientific and industrial applications. Here, we report on the epitaxial design for higher output power and a flared waveguide design for reduced divergence, which leads to high power operation with a low lateral divergence angle. A vertically asymmetric epitaxial structure was employed and optimized for low internal optical loss and high efficiency to realize high output power operation. Using a flared waveguide design, the lateral divergence angle was efficiently reduced by decreasing the number of high-order lateral optical modes significantly. The flared waveguide design introduces a smooth modification of the ridge width along the cavity without deteriorating laser performance. Based on the optimized epitaxial and waveguide design, we scaled the waveguide width to realize high continuous-wave power of 34.5 W at 25 °C. A low lateral divergence angle of 8° and high power conversion efficiency of 60% were achieved at the operating power level of 25 W. The life test data (30 A at 45 °C for 39 units, 0 failures in 1000 h) demonstrated reliable operation illustrating the efficient design for reduced lateral divergence angle and high operating power. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd

  Abstract:Feature selection is a machine learning technique that selects a representative subset of all features available in order to reduce the time and space needed to process high-dimensional data. Traditional feature selection methods include filter, wrapper, and embedded approaches. However, many conventional methods' performances are not suitable in many contexts. This paper proposes a new unsupervised feature selection model based on pseudo label approximation. The new derived model incorporates a projection error, a sparsity regularization, and a manifold regularization term that preserves the manifold structure of the original data. Finally, implementation of the new model onto five distinct datasets validates the effectiveness of the proposed model. © 2021 ACM.
