A three-dimensional single-lens model based on finite element solver was built to evaluate the focal shift in this study, when the temperature of surface was raised from the initial temperature to the specified temperature. An experimental method based on a Hartmann-Shack wavefront sensor was proposed to verify the rationality of the model. The nearly same results between simulations and experiments for N-BK7 and fused silica were obtained, which proves that it is feasible to analyze focal shifts of optical lenses by simulation methods..

In this structure, HCG serves as the top mirror of the RCE-PD, whereas InGaAs serves as a sacrificial layer to achieve monolithic integration. During the bandwidth optimization, the ratio of the thickness of the total intrinsic region and the absorption layer is introduced to realize the simultaneous optimization of the thickness of spacing layers and absorption layer. After structural optimization, the quantum efficiency of the device with diameter of 20 μm is 82% at 1 550 nm, and the 3-dB bandwidth is 34 GHz at a bias of 3 V..

In this paper, a new design method for moire magnifier based on depth cues from disparity is proposed. By using of the proposed method, the period magnification, the rotation angle of moire pattern can also be calculated, and the moire depth can be analyzed, too. According to the design and analysis results using MATLAB, the period of arrays and the cross angle are the important influence factors as the moire pattern above or below the microlens array. Moreover, with our 3D design method, we can design different moire magnifier with different size, direction angle and depth of moire pattern as required..

The waveguide mode characteristic was evaluated using a charge-coupled device (CCD) camera. It shows that the waveguide is single mode transmission at a wavelength of 1 550 nm. The transmission spectra of the long period waveguide gratings were measured by optical spectrum analyzer (OSA) and show an extinction ratio of ~17 dB and a 3 dB bandwidth of ~10 nm at the resonant wavelength. The resonant wavelength moves toward to the long wavelength direction as the waveguide width-difference increases in the same period, and also shifts toward to the long wavelength direction with the increase of the period in the case of the same waveguide width-difference. The method of fabricating a long period waveguide grating based on a patterned annealed proton exchange technique simplifies the fabrication process, and at the same time, reduces the fabrication cost..

The finite difference time domain evaluation of the design exhibit strong field confinement at the center of the ring and introduces tunable and sensitive notches in the transmission spectrum. The planar tunable architecture which performs well over the range of micro fluid detection, holds the promise of developing multi-analyte label-free biosensors and compactness towards a complete on-chip integrated sensing system. The performance of the proposed refractive index sensor is evaluated by placing different analytes such as saline water and ethanol at the center of the hybrid plasmonic ring which exhibits sensitivity of 847.50 nm·RIU-1 with a figure of merit of 563.25 RIU-1..

Furthermore, in order to search for an effective means of achieving localized laser broadcasting communication within At present, there has been great progress in the field of the point-to-point laser communication technology, in other words, the traditional laser communication technology has been advanced day by day. Furthermore, in order to search for an effective means of achieving localized laser broadcasting communication within a limited range, an effective method of horizontal link laser broadcasting communication is presented, and the corresponding verifiable broadcast communication system is designed. In addition, the laser broadcasting is systematically studied by one physical model built at the optimal distribution of optical power. First of all, the theoretical model of laser beam expansion and the theoretical model of parallel light curtain are made comparisons and analyzed from the angle of attenuation of optical power, and the optical power loss model of the parallel light curtain is established as a result. Secondly, combined with the theory of optical imaging transformation based on Gaussian beam, the field distribution of far field of parallel light curtain is simulated by one leading optical and illumination design software and the relation between the filed distribution of far field of light curtain and the distance of transmission is revealed. Finally, the superiority and feasibility of the parallel light curtain theory model are verified by field communication experiments in different information channels..

In the proposed scheme, a two-dimensional (2D) logistic-sine-coupling map (LSCM) is employed to generate two chaotic sequences. One is used to scramble the 16 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) symbols, and the other is used to scramble the rows of standard Walsh-Hadamard transform (WHT). The simulation results show that the proposed scheme can not only reduce the peak-average-power ratio (PAPR) but also achieve the image secure transmission over OFDM-based VLC systems..

The timing synchronization is realized by using only one training symbol which is composed of conjugated symmetric sequences. The timing estimation of the proposed algorithm is robust to poor frequency offset. The proposed algorithm is shown to eliminate the timing sidelobes of Park’s algorithm and has a more accurate timing estimation. In the condition of frequency offset, the timing metric of the proposed method still maintains its peak value at the correct timing point, while the values are almost zero at all other positions..

Aiming at the problem that quasi-cyclic low density parity check (QC-LDPC) codes may have the error floor in the high signal to noise ratio (SNR) region, a new construction method of the QC-LDPC codes with the low error floor is proposed. The basic matrix of the method is based on the progressive edge growth (PEG) algoAiming at the problem that quasi-cyclic low density parity check (QC-LDPC) codes may have the error floor in the high signal to noise ratio (SNR) region, a new construction method of the QC-LDPC codes with the low error floor is proposed. The basic matrix of the method is based on the progressive edge growth (PEG) algorithm and the improved eliminate elementary trapping sets (EETS) algorithm so as to eliminate the elementary trapping sets in the basic matrix, then the Zig-Zag method is used to construct the cyclic shift matrix which is used to extend the basic matrix in order to construct the parity check matrix. The method not only can improve the error floor in the high SNR region, but also can flexibly design the code length and code rate. The simulation results show that at the bit error rate of 10-6, the PEG-trapping-Zig-Zag (PTZZ)-QC-LDPC(3024,1512) codes with the code rate of 0.5, compared with the PEG-Zig-Zag (PZZ)-QC-LDPC(3024,1512) codes and the PEG-QC-LDPC(3024,1512) codes, can respectively improve the net coding gain of 0.1 dB and 0.16 dB. The difference among the bit error rate performance curves will become better with the increase of the SNR. In addition, the PTZZ-QC-LDPC(3024,1512) codes have no error floor above the SNR of 2.2 dB..

Isoe G. M., R. Leitch A. W., and Gibbon T. B.
Short-reach optical interconnects among massive serves in data centers have attracted extensive research recently. Increasing capacity, cost and power efficiency as well as wavelength switching between data center network nodes are still key challenges for current optical interconnects. In this work, we experimentally Short-reach optical interconnects among massive serves in data centers have attracted extensive research recently. Increasing capacity, cost and power efficiency as well as wavelength switching between data center network nodes are still key challenges for current optical interconnects. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate the real-time inter- mode optical wavelength switching technique, for high-speed wavelength flexible data center interconnects. A 10 Gbit/s 1 550 nm single mode vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) is optically injected and used to control a 10 Gbit/s multimode VCSEL carrier at 850 nm. Results show that a clearly open eye diagram is achieved at back-to-back analysis, implying a successful wavelength switch and error-free operation at 10 Gbit/s. A fully optical wavelength conversion of a multimode VCSEL operation at 850 nm using a single mode VCSEL subject to external optical injection at 1 550 nm is reported. This work opens new perspectives towards the development of a cost effective high-speed real-time inter-band wavelength switching technique between servers and network devices operating at different transmission windows at network nodes, for current and future optical interconnects..

In this letter, a new approach based on the discrete Hartley transform (DHT) post-coding technique is proposed to reduce PAPR of an O-OFDM signal in visible light communication systems. The proposed method is compared with Walsh-Hadamard transform (WHT) and discrete cosine transform (DCT) techniques in terms of PAPR reduction and bit error rate (BER) performance. Experimental results indicate that the proposed DHT post-coding method remarkably reduces the PAPR of an OFDM signal for optical intensity modulated direct detection systems without any corruption in the BER performance..

We first analyze the imaging principle of the experimental system for the true and false damage sites, then use kernel-based extreme learning machine (K-ELM) to distinguish them, and finally propose hierarchical kernel extreme learning machine (HK-ELM) to predict the damage size. The experimental results show that the classification accuracy is higher than 95%, the mean relative error of the predicted LID size is within 10%. So the proposed method meets the technical requirements for the damage online inspection..
