Application of coupled equation method on resonance processes of atomic lithium
Zengke Fang, and Xiaoguang Ma
The coupled equation method (CEM) has been applied to investigating the resonance structures for the ground state 1s2 2s 2S of the neutral lithium from the first threshold up to 64.5 eV. Resonance structures of atomic lithium due to single excitations of the 1s and 2s electrons are studied by infinite-order calculationThe coupled equation method (CEM) has been applied to investigating the resonance structures for the ground state 1s2 2s 2S of the neutral lithium from the first threshold up to 64.5 eV. Resonance structures of atomic lithium due to single excitations of the 1s and 2s electrons are studied by infinite-order calculations in detail. The effect of spin-orbit splitting is also included for some of the low-lying 1s 2s np resonance, and the influence of the interference between 1s 2s 3S np and 1s 2s 1S np states on the resonance structure has been confirmed theoretically. The results show that the presented technique can give the reasonable resonance structures very well in photoionization processes..

With this method, A new system of multi-channel single-output joint fractional Fourier transform correlator (JFRTC) for color pattern recognition is proposed based on the conventional system of multi-channel single-output joint transform correlator (JTC). The theoretical analysis and optical experiments are performed. With this method, one can obtain three correlation peaks at the output plane which show a pair of desired cross-correlation peaks and one auto-correlation peak. In comparison, the conventional system leads to more correlation peaks playing a noise role in color pattern recognition..

Guoping Zeng, and Ruizhen Zhao
We propose a new method for image denoising combining wavelet transform and support vector machines (SVMs).

ExperimWe propose a new method for image denoising combining wavelet transform and support vector machines (SVMs). A new image filter operator based on the least squares wavelet support vector machines (LS-WSVMs) is presented. Noisy image can be denoised through this filter operator and wavelet thresholding technique. Experimental results show that the proposed method is better than the existing SVM regression with the Gaussian radial basis function (RBF) and polynomial RBF. Meanwhile, it can achieve better performance than other traditional methods such as the average filter and median filter..

The unobservable problem of bearing-only tracking in blind spot is analyzed. A modified maximum likelihood method, which uses the redundant information of multi-sensor system to calculate the target position, is investigated to estimate the biases. Monte Carlo simulation results show that the modified method eliminates the effect of unobservable problem in the blind spot and can estimate the biases more rapidly and accurately than maximum likelihood method. It is statistically efficient since the standard deviation of bias estimation errors meets the theoretical lower bounds..

A technique is described for the dynamic measurement of selected thermophysical properties of electrically conducting solids in the temperature range from 1100 K to the melting point. Based on rapid resistive self-heating of the specimen from room temperature to any desired high temperature in several seconds by the paA technique is described for the dynamic measurement of selected thermophysical properties of electrically conducting solids in the temperature range from 1100 K to the melting point. Based on rapid resistive self-heating of the specimen from room temperature to any desired high temperature in several seconds by the passage of an electical current pulse through it, this technique measures the pertinent quantities such as current, voltage, randiance temperature, with sub-millisecond time resolution. The pulse-heating technique is applied to strip specimens. The radiance temperature is measured by high-speed pyrometry, normal spectral emissivity of the strips is measured by integrating sphere reflectometry. The normal spectral emissivity results are used to compute the true temperature of the specimens. The heat capacity, electrical resistivity, total hemispherical emissivity are evaluated in the temperature range from 1100 K to the melting point..

It can test large-aperture and large-relative-aperture aspheric surfaces at high resolution, low cost, and high efficiency without auxiliary null optics. The basic principle of the method is described, the synthetical optimization stitching model and effective algorithm are established based on simultaneous least-square fitting. A hyperboloid with an aperture of 350 mm is tested by this method. The obtained peak-to-valley (PV) and root-mean-square (RMS) values of the surface error after stitching are 0.433'lambda' and 0.052'lambda' ('lambda' is 632.8 nm), respectively. The reconstructed surface map coincides with the entire surface map from null test, and the difference of PV and RMS errors between them are 0.031'lambda' and 0.005'lambda', respectively. This stitching model provides another quantitive method for testing large aspheric surfaces besides null compensation..

Marangoni and buoyancy convection and gravity force were considered, and the effects of laser power and spot size on the spreading process were evaluated. Special attention was focused on the free surface of the droplet, which determines the profile of the brazing spot. The simulated results indicate that surface tension is the dominant flow driving force and laser spot size determines the droplet spreading domain..

In virtuel of equi-frequency contour analysis and finite-difference time-domain calculations, self-collimation behaviors for Polarization independent bends and beam splitters for transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) polarizations have been demonstrated in two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals (PhCs). In virtuel of equi-frequency contour analysis and finite-difference time-domain calculations, self-collimation behaviors for TE- and TM-polarizations are achieved at the same frequency. Simulation results show a 90-degree bend with 90% efficiency and beam splitters with about 96% total efficiency for both TE- and TM-polarizations, where the light is self-guided by the self-collimation effect. Such bends and beam splitters are expected to play important roles in optical devices where polarization insensitivity is needed..

A fiber taper can evanescently couple to whispering gallery modes (WGMs) in a planar silica microdisk for observing the optical properties of the microdisk cavity. It is revealed that WGMs have very high quality (Q) factors by controlling the air gap between the taper and the microdisk. The best coupling efficiency froA fiber taper can evanescently couple to whispering gallery modes (WGMs) in a planar silica microdisk for observing the optical properties of the microdisk cavity. It is revealed that WGMs have very high quality (Q) factors by controlling the air gap between the taper and the microdisk. The best coupling efficiency from the taper to the microdisk is as high as 98%, and can be continuously adjusted from the under-coupling, critical-coupling to over-coupling regimes. The influence of the laboratory circumstance such as surface contamination on the microdisk is also discussed. It is experimentally shown that the high-Q-factor (100000) modes can be kept for a long period in a general laboratory circumstance..

Through using actual parameters of three media, CCl4, acetone, and CS2, the waveforms of transmitted pulses are simulated. The result shows that different media have little effect on the front peak of waveform, while have an obvious effect on the height of power limiting platform. When the medium which has short phonon lifetime and small gain coefficient is used, the height of power limiting platform is comparatively high. In experiment, by focusing 1064-nm, 8-ns, 18-mJ pulses into these three media, the waveforms of transmitted pulses are obtained. The experimental results are in good agreement with conclusions of theoretical simulations..

TiO2/SiO2 dielectric mirrors with high reflection at 1064 nm are deposited by the electronbeam evaporation method and their LIDTs are measured in vacuum and atmosphere, respectively. It is found that the contamination in vacuum is easily attracted to optical surfaces because of the low pressure and becomes the source of damage, O2 molecules in vacuum with contamination can accelerate the laser-induced damage by observing LIDT and damage morphologies. LIDTs of mirrors have a little change in vacuum compared with in atmosphere when the organic contamination is wiped off. The results indicate that organic contamination is a significant reason to decrease the LIDT in vacuum..
