Abstract:The optical field distributions for two types of aplanatic Solid Immerision Lenses(SILs) of hemisphere (h-SIL) and supersphere (s-SIL) were analyzed by using the vector diffraction theory. The focal depths and spot sizes of the SILs for four materials (glass, silicon, gallium-phosphide, and diamond) were simulated. The results show that the focal depth of the h-SIL is greater than that of the s-SIL. The focal depth of the system is sensitive to the refractive index of the SIL and the spot size is sensitive to the illuminating wavelength. As NA (numerical aperture of lens) increases, the focal depth of the h-SIL decreases rapidly and monotonously, whereas the focal depth of the s-SIL has a one-period-only oscillatory behavior. Compared with the h-SIL, the s-SIL has an advantage that it lowers the demands for large-NA lenses in some applications, so that it is preferable to the applications in high-density optical storage and subtle photolithography.

Abstract:A double film method was employed to accurately estimate the influence of substrate on shielding effectiveness. By using the equivalent film model of free-standing mesh and preparing a thin mesh film on its substrate, this paper considers its influence on substrate interference to overcome the uncertainty of Konin’s method that merely considers the interference of the substrate itself, and to avoid the inaccuracy of Kohin’s transmission formulas of free-standing mesh at high frequency and large incident angle. To identify its validity, the metallic mesh with line width of 4.5 μm and period of 320 μm was fabricated on quartz glass by UV-lithography. The measuring results show that the shielding effectiveness is greater than 16 dB under 30° S-polarized incidence at 12~18 GHz, it is slightly below the theoretical value and has the same change trend with that. The analysis using the new method shows that for S-polarization,the shielding effectiveness decreases with oblique incidence; for P-polarization, it decreases also when incident angle is less than Brewster angle θB, but it increases abnormally when inciclent angle is larger than θB,and the largest alteration value varies with incident angle. Optimal shielding effectiveness can be obtained by optimizing substrate thickness without affect on the transparent property.

Abstract:To compensate the nonlinear displacement of the giant magnetostrictive micro-displacement actuator caused by temperature and eddy current induced reverse magnetic field, a mathematic model used to describe the distributing and magnitude of eddy current in the giant magnetostrictive micro-displacement actuator was derived based on electromagnetic theory. Galerkin method and Newton-Laphson iteration were used to analyze the mathematic model of eddy current. The electromagnetic field distributing of cross-section in the giant magnetostriction micro-displacement was calculated by this mathematic model to gain the corresponding relation of eddy current and frequency of input current in actuator. When the frequency of input current is greater than 1 kHz, the difference of the dissipation of eddy current induced magnetic field calculated by eddy current model of finite element with magnetic field intensity measured actually is 4.6 mT,which shows that the model can effectively compensate the dissipation of the giant magnetostriction micro-displacement actuator caused by eddy current.

Abstract:The principle of laser-adjusting and the method of laser-measuring were described and applied to adjust the gaps of one model relay. A plenty of tests and measurements for adjusting relay’s springs by laser beam were finished. After data analyzed, several results were summarized and shown as follows: the laser-adjusting quantum h is in linear direct proportion to the distance x2 between measuring point and adjusting point, and the formula can be expressed by h=kx2. The laser power P and the irradiation time t are approximate parabola relation curves to adjusting quantum h. The stronger the power P and the longer the irradiation time t, the bigger the quantum h at the rise phase, But when it is over the inflexion, the results are opposite. The experimental results also show that there is no negative influence of laser-adjusting on the relay’s mechanical life. It is feasible for adjusting the relay’s gap by laser beam when the laser power P and the time t set equal each other. With combining the test data of the relay’s gap, it is known that the gap of the most relays on the assembly line can be adjusted correctly after adjusting the settled spring only, which will be more efficiency in comparon of laser-adjusting with manual-adjusting.

Abstract:It is necessary to improve the imaging quality and enhance the image resolution of the camera in photographing by Image Motion Compension(IMC),when the image motion is brought out in airplane’s continuing flight and altering airplane gesture angles including pitching angle,yawing angle and rolling angle. In this paper, a mathematical model was established in order to obtain the velocity of image motion while the gesture angles were changing, in which it is supposed that the rotation of the coordinate system is equal to the change of the gesture angles. The velocity of image motion was calculated out by analyzing the course of the gesture angle’s change and utilizing the matrix transform relation between the different coordinates of the same position after the coordinate system’s rotation in changing single angle. The method can be deduced to the situation of all the three angles’ changing. The result is proved that it is an efficient method to calculate the image motion’s velocity for the oblique frame aerial camera. This method is intuitionistic,practical and easy to be expanded to the camera fixed in satellite also.

Abstract:To improve the performance of image restoration algorithms, a modified Singular Value Decomposition(SVD) method was proposed to estimate the Point Spread Function (PSF) of an imaging system. Using the discrete image degradation model, a block-based SVD filter scheme was applied for the image denoising with an automatically determined singular value rank. After the spectra of PSF singular vectors were estimated under an exponential model for the averaged spectra of un-degraded image singular vectors, the IFFT was used to get the time-domain estimation of the PSF. The experimental results show that this proposed method can be applied to estimate the PSF of the imaging system under a wide SNR range and its performance is better than the original method. It may be used as an effective method for the image preprocessing in image restoration problems.
