As an optical biopsy method, PZT fiber-optic scanning two-photon endomicroscopy holds significant importance for the early detection of gastrointestinal tumors. The scanning attributes inherent to the PZT fiber scanner wield direct influence over the electro-mechanical features of the two-photon endomicroscopy, rendering it a pivotal component of distal-scanning endoscopes. This study delves into a comprehensive analysis, both in the modal and frequency domains, of a forward-fixed PZT scanner from a theoretical standpoint. Additionally, we fabricated a forward-fixed PZT fiber scanner and validated its first- and second-order frequency domain characteristics experimentally. Theoretical simulations and experimental findings demonstrate that the forward-fixed scanner exhibits superior driving capability compared to the reverse-fixed scanner.

Beam-steering devices play a vital role in the realm of optical wireless communication (OWC). However, conventional beam-steering technologies based on spatial light modulators, digital micro-mirror devices, gratings, and waveguides have limited performance with tradeoffs between multi-functionalities, high modulation speed, and compactness, which significantly curtail the potential applications of OWC. Herein, a translation-controlled beam-steering metasurface consisting of two metalens arrays is designed, which can achieve high modulation speed, versatile functionalities, and ultra-compactness. In our simulation, multiple functionalities, such as single-angular-mode switching and switching between single-angular-mode and dual-angular-mode have been realized by shifting one of the metalens arrays. Moreover, the dimension of the meta-device is only 200 μm × 200 μm. Our preliminary experimental results show that the switching speed can reach up to 6 KHz. The proposed metasurface circumvents the previous issues, providing a new design paradigm for high-performance OWC.

Current astronomical detection of Positronium (Ps) atoms through gamma-ray emission is inherently limited by a 3-degree angular resolution. Alternatively, the triplet state of Ps is capable of producing a recombination spectrum in the near-infrared band, which would provide the potential to increase the angular resolution by a factor of 104 . The most promising signature is the Ps Balmer alpha line (Psα) at 1312.22nm. This observation scheme has never been implemented from ground-based telescopes due to the bright airglow. Now, the FBG-based OH suppression technique presents a promising solution for removing airglow emission lines surrounding the target signature. In this proceeding, we present the design and fabrication details of the first astronomy J-band FBG filters and early results of the OH suppression unit specifically developed for Ps detection.

Dual-station cross localization method is another promising technical route to realize cooperative localization in GNSSdenied environment, requiring only two anchor node UAVs instead of at least three nodes if inter-node distance measurement based localization method is used. Traditional Angle-of Arrival (AOA) estimation techniques cannot obtain accurate and highly available angle measurements used for position calculation, for example, optical measuring equipment can provide precise angle measurements but is restricted by weather condition, array antenna can be used in all situations but its measurement error would be too large. In order to acquire precise azimuth and pitch estimations, an optical phase scanning based AOA estimation method is utilized in this work. At the remote antenna unit (RAU), one received microwave signal is applied to a phase modulator (PM), and another received microwave signal coupled with a low-frequency large-voltage sawtooth-wave signal is applied to another PM, this sawtooth-wave signal is utilized to scan the phase of the optical sideband from 0 to 2π. By transmission through a segment of fiber link, the AOA value can be measured by processing the obtained low-frequency electrical signals at the central office (CO). Experimental results demonstrate that the AOA estimation precision could be less than 2.27° when the distance between array elements is half-wavelength of the microwave (d = λ/2 0.015 @10GHz), and smaller than 0.017° if the array elements spacing is bigger than 2m for medium-sized or large-sized UAV. Then the experimental result is applied into dual station cross localization simulation structure of UAV swarm, then localization precision distribution is evaluated in different scenarios, corresponding outcomes indicate that optical phase scanning based high precision AOA estimations are beneficial to cooperative localization, and in order to acquire more accurate cooperative localization results, the positions of anchor node UAVs need to be properly adjusted.

As a kind of common aspheric element, high-gradient aspheric surface is more and more used in high-tech fields because of its advantages of improving system accuracy and optimizing system comprehensive performance. At the same time, it also has higher requirements for its surface processing quality. The trajectory planning in polishing is an important part that affects the surface quality of the component. Due to the continuous change of the curvature radius of the high-steep aspheric surface and the large change rate of the vector height, the commonly used planar equidistant grating scanning trajectory is projected onto its surface. The distribution of trajectory points on the surface is obviously uneven, resulting in over polishing or under polishing in some areas. In order to ensure the machining accuracy of high-gradient aspheric surface, the concept of “common equal arc length point” is proposed and the equal arc length trajectory point planning model is established to make the spatial distance of any adjacent trajectory points on the aspheric surface consistent, and the spatial interval change rate is introduced to quantitatively analyze the distribution of trajectory points. Several aspheric surfaces with different vector height change rates are sampled by the equal arc length trajectory point model. Under the same sampling accuracy as the plane equidistant grid scanning trajectory point model, the change rate of the trajectory point spacing to the surface shape is reduced from 70.72 % ~ 33.03 %to 25.18%~8.75 %. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the model.

A filling material based on a similar refractive index with SiN is designed as the mode converter for thin film lithium niobate (TFLN). Such a design can realize an output mode field compatible with different sizes ranging from 3.5 um-9.2 um. The double-layer mode converter core with SiN has a similar height as the ridge waveguide of TFLN, which is helpful to increase the conversion efficiency. An overall coupling loss of less than 0.6 dB was achieved theoretically at 1310 nm for both modes. The proposed scheme avoids the disadvantage of high reflection when the inclined TFLN section result from dry-etching is directly used as the coupling end face and can improve the performance of integrated TFLN electro-optic modulation on the chip level. Three-dimensional simulation results show that the designed structure is insensitive to fabrication tolerance, which provides a feasible solution for reducing the volume of integrated devices, increasing overall performance and high-density integration.

The coupling efficiency between the backscattering light field received by the telescope and the single-mode fiber is one of the important parameters affecting the performance of the all-fiber water vapor Raman lidar system. In the process of using Raman lidar to detect water vapor, the telescope receives the backscattered light signal of the system, which is focused and coupled into the single-mode fiber through the microscopic objective lens. The mode field diameter of the selected single-mode fiber is only 4μm. The weak offset will lead to a decrease in coupling efficiency. When the no-load or space-borne lidar detects the atmosphere, the fluctuation of the airflow may cause the platform vibration to produce a position offset, which will reduce the efficiency of coupling the water vapor Raman scattering echo signal into the single-mode fiber. Based on the above problems, this paper designs a single-mode fiber automatic coupling system. In the closed-loop mode, the controller uses the piezoelectric effect to control the three-axis motion platform to automatically track the maximum brightness in the shooting spot, and realizes the coupling alignment between the single-mode fiber and the nitrogen Raman scattering echo (386.7nm) and the water vapor Raman scattering echo (407.8nm). The coupling efficiency is 49.7%, and the automatic adjustment accuracy is sub-micron. The influence of axial offset and lateral offset on the coupling efficiency is analyzed at the incident light wavelength of 407 nm. This provides a new solution for the continuous, stable and efficient acquisition of water vapor signals by all-fiber detection water vapor Raman lidar system.

In view of the demand for multi-format modulated signals from multifunctional radar, a reconfigurable pulse compression signal generation scheme based on dual-parallel Quadrature Phase Shift Keying modulator (DP-QPSK) is proposed. In this scheme, the phase coded signal and linear frequency modulation signal can be switched by changing the encoding format of the input electrical signal without altering the link structure. To generate pulse signals with flexible and tunable carrier frequencies, optical filtering is not employed in this scheme. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme successfully achieves the switching between phase-encoded signals and linear frequency modulation signals, and the Peak-to-side Ratios (PSR) and Pulse Compression Ratios (PCR) of the generated signals closely approximate.

In a recent experimental study, we investigated a homemade distributed side-coupled cladding-pumped (DSCCP) fiber using a master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) configuration and tandem-pumping technique. During the experiment, we observed an abnormal behavior of the residual pump power from the counter port of the pump core. This abnormal behavior exhibited a threshold-like characteristic, with both the residual power and corresponding power ratio to injected pump starting to increase exponentially above a specific value. Specifically, when the pump power injected into the system ranged from 7.2 kW to 11.77 kW, the corresponding residual power ratio increased from 4.05% to 11.01%. Simultaneously, the signal optical-to-optical conversion efficiency decreased from 84.11% to 75.33%. This sudden appearance of the phenomenon significantly limits the ability to further scale the power of the system. However, the underlying mechanism causing this abnormal behavior remains unclear and requires further investigation.

We propose and demonstrate a sub-gigahertz bandwidth photonic differentiator employing the self-induced optical modulation effect in a silicon-on-insulator micro-ring resonator. The all-passive DIFF is controlled through an all-optical pump-probe scheme. Input Gaussian-like pulses with 7.5ns pulse width are differentiated at high processing accuracy. A semi-analytical model that agrees with the experimental results is also derived. The DIFF’s energy efficiency is higher than 45%, far surpassing all previously reported schemes for sub-gigahertz bandwidth pulses. Our scheme expands the application potential of photonic DIFFs.
