This approach capitalizes on the advantages of high speed, exceptional precision, and absolute distance measurement, and incorporates a spatial optical configuration featuring a cylindrical mirror and focusing path. Initially, the structure and principles underlying the external reference measuring device based on dual-comb ranging are presented. Subsequently, an analysis is conducted regarding the influence of curvature radius and alignment errors of the cylindrical mirror target on the precision of dynamic radius measurements, accompanied by the proposal of a method for mutual compensation error correction. An experimental system has been constructed to assess the dynamic radius of the precision centrifuge across various acceleration levels.

Experimental results demonstrate that the system effectively measures dynamic radius variations under accelerations ranging from 0g to 15g. With 20 sliding averages at a repetition frequency difference of 2 kHz, the dynamic measurement accuracy exceeds 0.56 μm, with a maximum dynamic radius recorded at 204.90 μm. This methodology satisfies the stringent requirements for high-speed and high-precision dynamic radius measurements, thereby enhancing the accuracy of centrifuge acceleration calibration.
摘要:To address the pressing need for highly sensitive detection of gaseous pollutants in nuclear facilities, a detection technique employing cavity-enhanced absorption spectroscopy of 14CO2 was developed. This method incorporates a standing wave V-shaped cavity alongside a quantum cascade laser. A mid-infrared absorption spectroscopy detection system was constructed, successfully achieving highly sensitive detection of 14CO2 gas. The system utilizes a standing wave V-shaped cavity comprising three high-reflectance mirrors, which effectively doubles the spectral resolution without necessitating an increase in the physical length of the optical cavity. By incrementally scanning the laser wavelength to sequentially provoke the absorption events of adjacent cavity modes, comprehensive molecular spectral measurements are obtained while maintaining a high signal-to-noise ratio of cavity absorption spectroscopy signals. Furthermore, to mitigate variations in trigger positions caused by fluctuations in cavity length and laser frequency drift, dynamic correction of the step voltage values was implemented during the experiment, resulting in long-term stability of 14CO2 spectral measurements. Allan variance analysis revealed that the detection limit of this system is 2.5×10-10 cm-1, corresponding to a minimum detectable concentration of 1.2×10-12 for 14CO2. This technology holds significant promise for monitoring the emission of radioactive carbon dioxide in the exhaust gases from nuclear power plants.
摘要:In order to investigate the relationship between variations in carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration and seed vitality during respiration, a CO2 photoacoustic sensing system utilizing a differential Helmholtz photoacoustic cell was designed. The system's performance was evaluated by measuring the CO2 production rate of south japonica rice seeds exhibiting varying levels of vitality. An independent signal processing module based on a field programmable gate array (FPGA) development board was developed to facilitate precise regulation of laser drive current and demodulation of photoacoustic signals. Through optimization of modulation frequency, laser modulation depth, working pressure, and other system parameters, optimal performance was achieved, with an integration time of 1 089 s and a detection limit of 0.6×10-6. In accordance with national standard GB/T 3543.1, a germination experiment involving 30 g of south japonica rice seeds was conducted. Linear fitting analysis was performed using CO2 evolution concentration data obtained from the photoacoustic sensing experiment. The results demonstrate that the seed respiration rate of south japonica rice is directly proportional to seed vitality, with a correlation coefficient of 0.979. This finding provides a valuable reference for assessing rice seed vitality through photoacoustic spectroscopy.
摘要:To address the challenges associated with slow imaging speed, limited imaging range, and the complexity and high costs of existing non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging technologies, a novel real-time NLOS imaging method based on array time-of-flight (ToF) principles was proposed. A theoretical model for three-dimensional (3D) scattering NLOS imaging utilizing a planar array configuration was established, facilitating the investigation of the effects of imaging distance and light source illumination angle on system reconstruction outcomes and overall performance. An evaluation index for ToF NLOS 3D imaging was developed. This method employs an 850 nm modulated laser as the optical signal source, with a ToF camera functioning as the sensor to capture third-order forward scattering signals from concealed targets illuminated through an intermediate plane. The hidden target is reconstructed using depth information obtained from a demodulation algorithm. Experimental results demonstrate that the system can achieve real-time NLOS reconstruction of small targets, such as a plaster statue measuring 15 cm × 19 cm × 30 cm, when both the intermediate plane and NLOS objects are approximated as Lambertian surfaces within a distance of 3.5 m. The illumination angle of the light source can be adjusted between 60 and 90 degrees, resulting in a real-time imaging speed of 2.056 5 frame/s. The system features a pixel resolution of 320 × 240, with a maximum target area pixel size of 150 × 100, and a minimum horizontal distance for multiple target images without aliasing of 3.5 cm. This paper introduces key technologies for real-time NLOS imaging using array ToF, highlighting significant advancements in imaging range, speed, resolution, and interference resistance.
摘要:The wafer positioning mark is characterized by its small size and diverse shapes. Traditional focus evaluation functions exhibit limitations, including poor stability and low sensitivity during computation. To address these challenges, an adaptive focus evaluation algorithm based on multi-directional gradient variance was proposed in this paper. Initially, feature edge pixel points of the mark image were adaptively sampled and extracted. Subsequently, a multi-directional gradient function, tailored for wafer positioning marks, was developed by integrating the Brenner function and the Roberts function. The sampled pixel points were then evaluated to derive the initial focus evaluation function value. Finally, the variance of the initial focus evaluation function values across the image set was computed, thereby enhancing the robustness of the function against noise and yielding the final focus evaluation function value. Experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm reduces fluctuations in flat areas by 61.49% and enhances sensitivity by a factor of 2.56 compared to traditional evaluation algorithms. This innovative approach provides a superior calculation strategy for achieving high-sensitivity automatic focusing of wafer positioning marks and other micro-nano mark images characterized by distinct edge feature structures.

摘要:This study introduces a novel uniform polishing method for the ultra-precision finishing of the inner surfaces of thin-shell components, based on the principles of magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) polishing. The methodology involves the application of a magnetic field to the outer surface of the component, enabling precise control of the MRE pressure on the inner surface, thereby facilitating uniform polishing. Magneto-elastic coupling simulations of the MRE were conducted using COMSOL Multiphysics software to determine the polishing pressure, its distribution across the component surface, and the velocity distribution within the polishing area. A material removal function model was developed based on the Preston equation, which was subsequently discretized and sampled to derive the material removal vector. The residence time at each point in the polishing area was calculated using the non-negative least squares method. To validate the proposed approach, a polishing experiment was conducted under a magnetic field of 0.32 T, utilizing a magnetorheological MRE device to polish a fused quartz glass workpiece measuring 60 mm × 60 mm × 1 mm for a duration of 78 minutes. The experimental results indicated that controlling the residence time at each point achieved an average material removal depth of 84.4 nm, with a fluctuation range of 10.9%, thereby attaining a uniform surface finish. These findings substantiate the effectiveness of the proposed method in achieving uniform polishing of the inner surfaces of thin-shell components.

摘要:Vacuum adsorption clamping ensures a uniform distribution of force on the lens, mitigates the occurrence of surface scratches, and is widely utilized in the processing and assembly of optical machine systems. This study examines the impact of vacuum adsorption on the surface morphology of thin plane lenses. Initially, the theory of circumferentially simply supported flat plate deformation, in conjunction with thin plate theory, is applied to analyze how various contact states between the lens and fixture, as well as differing vacuum levels, influence lens deformation. Subsequently, a fluid-solid coupling model is established to investigate the effects of various negative pressure conditions on lens surface geometry, thereby validating the feasibility of employing vacuum adsorption to regulate lens shape. Finally, adsorption clamping experiments are conducted to assess changes in lens morphology before and after vacuum application. The findings reveal a reduction in the error of the lens adsorption surface shape from 10 μm to 7 μm, while the gap between the lens and fixture decreased from 9 μm to 4 μm, reaching a minimum of 0.8 μm. In conclusion, negative pressure adsorption enhances the conformity of the lens adsorption surface to the fixture surface, thereby substantiating the efficacy of vacuum adsorption as a method for regulating lens surface shape. The proposed vacuum adsorption clamping technique not only improves the precision of lens processing and assembly but also effectively minimizes the impact of initial surface shape errors on the optical system.
摘要:In addressing the performance requirements associated with macro-stroke applications, such as high precision, substantial load capacity, and multi-degree-of-freedom functionality for tasks involving cell puncture, micro-operation, and micro-assembly, a novel three-degree-of-freedom parallel stick-slip driving platform utilizing piezoelectric compliant mechanisms was proposed. The integration of macro fiber composite with the arch driving mechanism constructed a driving unit that facilitates stick-slip actuation, enabling large-scale, high-precision motion of the parallel platform. Furthermore, the implementation of cylindrical support significantly enhanced the platform's load capacity, while universal bearings mitigate non-driven friction, thereby improving overall motion performance. The finite element method was utilized to establish the static model of the compliant arch driving unit, followed by simulations and analysis of output displacement and natural frequency. An experimental test system was subsequently developed to validate the output performance of the platform. Experimental results indicate that the piezoelectric stick-slip platform, operating in stepping mode, achieves maximum single-step translation displacements of 294.7 μm and 304.5 μm along the X and Y axes, respectively, as well as a maximum single-step rotation angle of 9.96 mrad around the Z axis, with a maximum vertical load capacity of 110 N. In scanning mode, the displacement resolutions for translation and rotation are recorded at 6 nm and 0.28 μrad, respectively. Thus, the designed parallel piezoelectric stick-slip platform effectively satisfies the performance criteria required for precision micromanipulation tasks.

摘要:Due to the limitations of distance measurement from a single ultra-wideband (UWB) anchor, which provides only one-dimensional information, significant enhancement in system accuracy and robustness is constrained. To address this issue, a UWB multi-anchor resilient-assisted vision/inertial tightly coupled navigation method was proposed, which obviates the necessity of pre-obtaining UWB anchor positions and demonstrates universal applicability. Initially, based on the plug-and-play concept, an online asynchronous positioning estimation method was introduced to effectively and timely utilize UWB anchor information. Subsequently, a resilient factor graph optimization framework was employed to construct a tightly coupled factor graph model for vision-inertial UWB fusion, facilitating tightly coupled navigation that integrates information from vision, inertial sensors, and multiple UWB anchors. The proposed method was validated using both the open-source VIRAL dataset and datasets collected from real-world environments. Experimental results indicate that, in comparison to state-of-the-art open-source algorithms VINS-MONO and VIR-SLAM, the positioning accuracy of the proposed method improved by an average of 30.61% and 23.19%, respectively. These findings underscore that the UWB multi-anchor resilient-assisted vision/inertial tightly coupled navigation method provides enhanced positioning accuracy and improved robustness.

摘要:The traditional dark channel dehazing algorithm is limited by its inability to adequately remove haze from the distal regions of large-format oblique images and suffers from low processing efficiency. To address these challenges, an improved dark channel prior-based dehazing algorithm for oblique images was proposed in this paper. Initially, a rapid compensation method for the dark channel was employed, utilizing block-level and pixel-level window weighted fusion to enhance transmittance estimation. Subsequently, the dark channel prior was integrated with the radiative transfer equation to establish a haze distribution model and calculate transmittance. The atmospheric light value was then estimated to complete the dehazing process. Furthermore, a parallel computing scheme was designed to enhance dehazing speed. Experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm effectively mitigates the effects of uneven haze distribution, thus significantly improving the quality of hazy images. In scenes with dense haze, image entropy and average gradient values increase by approximately 22.7% and 30.0%, respectively. Additionally, the dehazing speed during batch processing is approximately 11 times faster than that of traditional dark channel algorithms, demonstrating a substantial enhancement in processing efficiency.

摘要:Wireless optical channel key extraction serves as an effective method for achieving physical layer security, wherein legitimate parties generate a key sequence by detecting and estimating the features of the optical channel. Eavesdroppers, however, may capture key-related information through optical signals outside the legitimate party's receiving aperture. To address this challenge, a novel key extraction scheme was proposed. Initially, an enhanced generative adversarial network model was utilized to enable legitimate parties to accurately estimate channel features relevant for key extraction from the measured channel sequences. Subsequently, a random quantization alternating method was employed on the estimated channel feature sequences to derive the initial keys independently. Experimental results demonstrate that the key sequences generated by the legitimate parties exhibit high consistency, with the correlation coefficient between the channel feature sequences estimated by Alice and Bob reaching 0.998 3 in a 25 dB SNR environment. Furthermore, the initial key disagreement rate produced by Alice and Bob is 1.3×10-4 ,which is significantly reduced by the proposed scheme. The shared key obtained after information negotiation by the legitimate parties successfully passes the NIST randomness test, underscoring the efficacy and robustness of the proposed method in enhancing key extraction reliability.
