光束发散度对紫外写入光纤光栅的影响

用傅里叶衍射光学分析了准分子激光束发散度对于光纤光栅制备的影响，发现光束发散角使光纤光栅的布拉格波长发生改变，相位版后干涉场沿光纤轴向和径向不均匀，对制备30dB高反射率光纤光栅造成困难。实验结果与理论分析基本一致，相对于理想平行光束情况，会聚光束使得光纤光栅布拉格波长出现在短波一边，发射光束使得光纤光栅布拉格波长出现在长波一边。

Stencil lithography of gold-black IR absorption coatings

Gold black coatings are deposited through a stencil shadow mask to produce infrared-absorbing patterns with sub-mm lateral dimensions. Such dimensions match the characteristic pitch of Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) array bolometers. Infrared spectral imaging with sub-micron spatial resolution reveals the spatial distribution of absorption across the pattern.

Surface analysis of ripple pattern on PS and PEN induced with ring‐shaped mask due to KrF laser treatment

The approach for ripple nanopattern construction on surface of two polymer substrates [polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) and polystyrene (PS)] exposed by a KrF pulse excimer UV laser through a contact lithographic mask with circular slit was proposed in this paper. Thin layer of gold was deposited on samples after the laser treatment. Changes in the morphology of the surface of both the shielded and exposed areas of the substrates, as well as the dimensions of the laser‐induced periodic surface structures, were determined (by atomic force microscopy, laser confocal microscopy and scanning electron microscopy), compared with observations and measurements made on samples treated directly (without a contact mask) under the same conditions. The morphology of the interface between the treated and untreated regions was also closely studied. Surface chemistry of treated samples was studied in detail by X‐ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy. The detailed study of surface chemistry of modified PEN and PS revealed a significant increase of oxygen concentration for laser treated PS and increase of carboxyl groups in case of PEN. The potential application of this research can be found in biotechnology, micro technology and several other fields. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Optical fabrication of three-dimensional photonic lattices in LiNbO3:Fe crystals with a single amplitude mask

We fabricate three-dimensional nonlinear photonic lattices in iron-doped lithium niobate photorefractive crystal for the first time by a single amplitude mask. The experimental setup of this method is very simple and flexible. The period of the lattices can be dominated easily. We analyze the three-dimensional photonic lattices by plane wave guiding and far field diffraction pattern imaging. The induced photonic lattices can exist stably for a long time in the photorefractive crystal.     

Concentration and refractive index sensor for methanol using short period grating fiber

This paper reports on the spectral (response) characteristics of fiber Bragg grating sensor to various methanol concentrations. A complete experimental analysis on the use of Ge-B co-doped fiber Bragg grating sensor for a concentration and refractive index measurement is presented. The spectral changes in the grating response due to variation of concentration have been investigated in relation to new sensing configurations. The results also highlight the possibilities of using the sensor for medical and biological applications.     

A fractional partial differential equation based multiscale denoising model for texture image

Traditional integer‐order partial differential equation based image denoising approach can easily lead edge and complex texture detail blur, thus its denoising effect for texture image is always not well. To solve the problem, we propose to implement a fractional partial differential equation (FPDE) based denoising model for texture image by applying a novel mathematical method—fractional calculus to image processing from the view of system evolution. Previous studies show that fractional calculus has some unique properties that it can nonlinearly enhance complex texture detail in digital image processing, which is obvious different with integer‐order differential calculus. The goal of the modeling is to overcome the problems of the existed denoising approaches by utilizing the aforementioned properties of fractional differential calculus. Using classic definition and property of fractional differential calculus, we extend integer‐order steepest descent approach to fractional field to implement fractional steepest descent approach. Then, based on the earlier fractional formulas, a FPDE based multiscale denoising model for texture image is proposed and further analyze optimal parameters value for FPDE based denoising model. The experimental results prove that the ability for preserving high‐frequency edge and complex texture information of the proposed fractional denoising model are obviously superior to traditional integral based algorithms, as for texture detail rich images.
