Realization of Tip Tilting By 8-Step Line Tilting

By direct calculation of rotation matrices of SO（3）, we show how certain specific sequence of eight consecutive rotations of digital angles can yield a tilting of a facet mirror. We also design a detailed program specifically to tilt an array of mirrors from planar orientation to the required focusing orientation. We describe how to use the 8-step to realize the focusing of the mirror array. We have found, in our designed program, an important feature of row-sharing during the rotations for the columns and similarly the column-sharing during the rotations for the row. This feature can save a lot of operating time during the actual realization of the mechanical movements.     

Digitalized Mirror Array and Its Application in Large Telescope： Principle and Case Studies

In this article, we report the principle and conceptual design of a fundamentally different technology in fabricating high precision aberration free optical devices. The tip-tilt of facet in a mirror array is produced by digitally controlled line-tilts of rows and columns. It has not only provided a cost-effective designing methodology in optical physics but also led to a much finer precision of 1 mili arc sec or less. As examples of the application of the proposed digitalised optics, two case studies have been given： a 10 m Schmidt telescope （off-axis） and an 8 m Cassegrain telescope （on-axis）.     

Complete Solution of Sun Tracking for Heliostat

A general solution of sun tracking for an arbitrarily oriented heliostat towards an arbitrarily located target on the earth is published. With the most general form of solar tracking formulae, it is seen that the used azimuth-elevation, spinning-elevation tracking formulae etc. are the special cases of it. The possibilities of utilizing the general solution and its significance in solar energy engineering are discussed.     

Silicon Purification by a New Type of Solar Furnace

We propose a new method to reveal a direct transformation from solar energy to solar electricity. Instead of using electricity in the process, we use concentrated solar rays with a crucibleless process to upgrade metallurgical silicon into solar-grade silicon feedstock.

On the Possibility to Construct Gravitational Eye

The possibility of modifying a conventional Cavendish torsion pendulum into a half-armed pendulum oscillator to measure the horizontal gravitational acceleration is discussed. A new kind of gravitational detector, gravieye, as we named, can be made by a proper combination of such oscillators to ＂see＂ remote objects and to be used, e.g. to detect the movement of huge mass at a long distance.     

Development of silicon purification by strong radiation catalysis method

Using a new type of solar furnace and a specially designed induction furnace,cost effective and highly efficient purification of metallurgical silicon into solar grade silicon can be achieved.It is realized by a new method for extracting boron from silicon with the aid of photo-chemical effect.In this article,we discussed the postulated principle of strong radiation catalysis and the recent development in practice.Starting from ordinary metallurgical silicon,we achieved a purification result of 0.12 ppmw to 0.3 ppmw of boron impurity in silicon by only single pass of a low cost and simple process,the major obstacle to make ’cheap’ solar grade silicon feedstock in industry is thus removed.

Realization of Fine Tip Tilting by 16-Step Line Tilting

Following Chen＇s method [Commun. Theor. Phys. 52 （2009） 549] to use ＆step line tilting to realize tip tilting, to achieve finer rotation, it is discovered that a 16-step line tilting method may realize a rotation two order smaller than that achieved by ＆step.
