Considering the serious risks posed by the heavy metals present in pig diets, monitoring and controlling the amount of these metals is crucial. The laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a promising technique for performing elemental analysis due to its unique advantages, such as rapid, in situ, nondestructive, and online detection of various minerals. In order to improve the detection accuracy and detection limit (LOD) of elements, the spatial constraint combined with laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (CC-LIBS) is used to detect the quantity of zinc in pig feed and achieve the detection of samples with lower concentrations.

The results show that the optimal conditions include a circular constrained cavity D5H2, a delay time of 2.08, and an enhancement factor of 3.01 associated with the analytical spectral line. The detection limit of zinc in samples under CC-LIBS is 62.67 mg/kg (the recommended quantity of zinc in pig diet mentioned in the safe use of feed additives is 43-80 mg/kg), which is 35.65% lower than that under the LIBS (97.39 mg/kg). Therefore, this work provides a new test basis and idea for the detection of zinc in pig feed.

We analysis the generation of entangled biphotons by symmetric and antisymmetric phase modulation to obtain the corresponding joint spectral amplitude functions(JSAF) during the spontaneous parametric down-conversion(SPDC). With the help of Schmidt decomposition, the distribution probabilities of different modes are analyzed and the degree of entanglement is improved, which in turn leads to the effective regulation of entanglement, entropy, Schmidt coefficient and Schmidt number. Through simulations, we find that the antisymmetric phase modulation can slightly broaden the spectrum width, and the symmetric phase modulation distribution is more advantageous when the crystal is shorter.

Abstract: The reflectance of an object is a physical quantity that is related to a variety of factors such as wavelength, direction of light source, direction of detection, and weather conditions.If complete spectral information about the target is to be obtained, this can only be done by measuring the spectral reflectance in all angular directions. Obviously, this method of acquiring spectral data has the disadvantages of complex operation, low efficiency and poor timeliness in military applications. The Semi-Empirical kernel-driven model captures the main factors affecting the bidirectional reflective properties of an object and uses physically meaningful kernel parameters to characterise the reflective properties of an object. By measuring these kernel parameters and combining them with a small number of measurements, it is possible to extrapolate and fit the spectral reflectance of the target in all directions, improving the efficiency of information acquisition and processing. Semi-empirical kernel-driven models were initially used to study the composition and structure of vegetation and its spectral reflectance properties with some results. However, whether the Semi-empirical kernel-driven model can be effectively used to study the spectral reflectance properties of military materials has not been verified. This paper first introduces three commonly used semi-empirical kernel-driven models, namely RossThick-LiSparseR(RTLSR), RossThick-LiTransitN (RTLT) and RossThick-Roujean (RTR). Then, the spectral reflectance of four typical military materials was measured using an imaging spectrometer, and the fitting effects of different models were evaluated. Experiments show that the three semi-empirical kernel-driven models have good data fitting ability for different types of military materials.Overall, RTLSR model has the best data fitting ability and the best stability of inversion results.

We investigate the atom−field system in the framework of harmonic oscillators based on deformed Heisenberg algebras. We explore the dynamic characteristics of the considered system under the effect of a nonlinear field. In particular, we consider the atomic population, atomic coherence, and atom−field entanglement for a system that comprises a single five−level atom interacting with a single−mode nonlinear field when the deformation effect is taken into account. We examine the time evolution of the quantum quantifiers in the presence of deformation when the initial state of the quantized field is defined to be a nonlinear coherent state (CS) or a superposition state

In this article we describe the implementation of FORMIDABLE: an optical design library capable of simulating optical systems by ray-tracing. Optical performance can be quantified and optimised using third-party optimisation algorithms. Compared to available commercial optical design software and similarly to FANO, our code can simulate and optimise non-uniform rational B-splines surfaces. It also implements generalized differential capabilities that allows faster convergence compared to state-of-the-art. The implementation of FORMIDABLE and its innovative capabilities are described and illustrated with a representative case-study.

The application of starlight refraction navigation to spacecraft and space weapons is a significant development direction. Observing enough refracted stars for the star sensor in a strong limb background is an urgent problem. The all-day optical system parameters are analyzed based on the star detection requirement and navigation accuracy. Combined with primary aberration theory, the prime-focus catadioptric optical system is selected to meet the design requirements of a wide field of view (FOV) and tight structure. An H-band (1.52um-1.78um) star sensor is designed with a FOV of 6°, a focal length of 831mm, an effective aperture of 253mm, and a relative distortion of 0.03%. The energy concentration of the star point is 85% within 30um, and the maximum lateral chromatic aberration is 2.9um, which meets the imaging requirements. Furthermore, a baffle is designed to avoid the influence of direct sunlight on stellar imaging. The proposed method can provide a theoretical foundation and technical support for the optical design of the refraction star navigation.

Metal parts with highly dynamic areas often appear in industrial production measurements. However, if the traditional fringe projection technique is used to project fringe onto the surface of these metal parts, the light energy will be excessively concentrated and the image will be saturated, resulting thus in the loss of fringe information. To effectively address the high reflectivity problem of the object under test in fringe projection, background normalized Fourier transform contouring was combined with adaptive fringe projection in this work and a new method for performing highly dynamic 3D measurements was proposed. To reduce the number of the acquired images by the camera, a monochromatic fringe of different frequencies was put into the RGB channel to make color composite fringe, and then a color camera was used to acquire the deformed color composite fringe map. The images acquired by the color camera were then separated into three channels to obtain three deformed stripe maps. The crosstalk was also removed from these three images, and the 3D shape of the object was reconstructed by carrying out Fourier transform contouring with background normalization. From our experiments, it was demonstrated that the root mean square error of the proposed method can reach 0.191 mm, whereas, unlike the traditional methods, the developed method requires four images.

The present study is devoted to investigate the chirped gap solitons with Kudryashov’s law of self-phase modulation having dispersive reflectivity. Thus, the mathematical model consists of coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) that describes pulse propagation in a medium of fiber Bragg gratings (BGs). To reach an integrable form for this intricate model, the phase-matching condition is applied to derive equivalent equations that are handled analytically. By means of auxiliary equation method which possesses Jacobi elliptic function (JEF) solutions, various forms of soliton solutions are extracted when the modulus of JEF approaches 1. The generated chirped gap solitons have different types of structures such as bright, dark, singular, W-shaped, kink, anti-kink and Kink-dark solitons. Further to this, two soliton waves namely chirped bright quasi-soliton and chirped dark quasi-soliton are also created. The dynamic behaviors of chirped gap solitons are illustrated in addition to their corresponding chirp. It is noticed that self-phase modulation and dispersive reflectivity have remarkable influences on the pulse propagation. These detailed results may enhance the engineering applications related to the field of fiber BGs.

Recently, Kumar Gerry et al. [Phys. Rev. A 90, 033427 (2014)] studied the coherence control in a six-level atom through solving the Schrödinger equation in the field-interaction representation. In this manuscript, we investigate the interaction between a six-level atomic system (SLAS) and a single-mode field initially prepared in a squeezed coherent state. We extend the Jeans-Cummings model to describe the interaction between the atom and the squeezed field (SF) and the system dynamics. We examine the time evolution of the atomic coherence, non-local correlation, statistical properties within the bipartite system in the presence and absence intensity-dependent coupling (I-DC) for different squeezing regimes of the field.

Line-field confocal optical coherence tomography (LC-OCT) is an imaging modality based on a combination of time-domain optical coherence tomography and reflectance confocal microscopy. LC-OCT provides three-dimensional images of semi-transparent samples with a spatial resolution of ∼ 1 μm. The technique is primarily applied to in vivo skin imaging. The image contrast in LC-OCT arises from the backscattering of incident light by the sample microstructures, which is determined by the optical scattering properties of the sample, characterized by the scattering coefficient μs and the scattering anisotropy factor g. In biological tissues, the scattering properties are determined by the organization, structure and refractive indexes of the sample. The measurement of these properties using LC-OCT would therefore allow a quantitative characterization of tissues in vivo. We present a method for extracting the two scattering properties μs and g of tissue-mimicking phantoms from 3D LC-OCT images. The method provides the mean values of μs and g over a lateral field of view of 1.2 mm × 0.5 mm (x × y). It can be applied to monolayered and bilayered samples, where it allows extraction of μs and g of each layer. Our approach is based on a calibration using a phantom with known optical scattering properties and on the application of a theoretical model to the intensity depth profiles acquired by LC-OCT. It was experimentally tested against integrating spheres and collimated transmission measurements for a set of monolayered and bilayered scattering phantoms.
