However, the accuracy of interferometry measurement is limited to the accuracy with which the surface of the reference mirror employed in the interferometer system is known, and the influence of gravity-induced deformation cannot be ignored. This is addressed in the present work by proposing a three-flat testing method based on multiposition rotation interference absolute surface measurement technology that combines the basic theory of N-position rotation with the separability of surface wavefront functions into sums of even and odd functions. These functions provide the rotational symmetric components of the wavefront, which then enables the absolute surface to be reconstructed based on the N-position rotation measurements. In addition, we propose a mechanical clamping combined with computational method to compensate for the gravity-induced deformations of the flats in the multiposition rotation absolute measurements. The high precision of the proposed absolute surface measurement method is demonstrated via simulations. The results of laboratory experiments indicate that the combination compensation method provides the high-precision surface reconstruction outcomes. The present work provides an important contribution for supporting the interferometry measurement of large aperture, high-precision optical component surfaces.","PeriodicalId":55995,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Optics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42050464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on ab initio to rationalize Franck–Condon filtering, the optimal target states of photoassociation have been obtained. The corresponding vibrational transitions from X1Σ+g to the excited state (A1Σu+, B1Πu, C1Σu+, and D1Πu) are \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 v\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 ′\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 = 23, 50, 55, and 0, respectively. By using quantum wave packet dynamic methods, we calculated the yields with time evaluation for the selected target states. The projections of time-dependent wave functions of initial states on the target vibrational eigenstates reflected the synthetic yields of Yb2. For target A1Σu+, we used Gaussian pulse to make the yield of \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 v\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 ′\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 = 23 up to 97% at 725 fs. After a laser pulse, the positive chirp promoted the yield of vibrational states to increase, but the negative chirp inhibited its decrease. For the D1Πu state, when laser intensity is 1.0 × 1014 W/cm2, the purity and yield of target state \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 v\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 ′\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 = 0 reached the maximum at 1350 fs. That is to say, changing the laser parameters and pulse shapes could control the photochemical reaction along our desired direction. These conditions will provide an important reference and suggest a scheme for a feasible photoassociation of further experimental and theoretical research studies.

This study aims to understand the interactions between solid amino acid molecules and between amino acid and water molecules and to determine the changes in their microstructure. By observing the intensity of the time domain spectra in the range of 0.2–2.6 THz, we found that, as the concentration of glycine and arginine increased, the THz transmission gradually decreased. It can be inferred that the molecular structure and quantity of different amino acids have different influence on the hydrogen bond, which affects the absorption coefficient in solution. It was also found that the terahertz technique is able to identify the solid amino acid species better, and it can also perform some species identification for liquid amino acids. These results provide a reference for future studies on the terahertz absorption properties of amino acid samples. Moreover, Gaussian16 software was used to calculate the terahertz spectra using the density functional theory, B3LYP functional, and 6-31G basis set. Additionally, Gaussian View6 video software provided the frequency values, molecular vibration modes of the theoretical absorption peaks of glycine, arginine, and its aqueous solutions in the frequency range of 0.2–2.6 THz, which offers theoretical support for future studies.","PeriodicalId":55995,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Optics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45459151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The numerical determination of the evanescent field optimal configuration formed near the quartz rough surface in the gaseous medium saturated with chlorine molecules when illuminated from the quartz side has been considered. The finite-element approach is used to solve the Helmholtz two-dimensional vector equation. It was found that at the initial stage of photochemical polishing different electrodynamic conditions are created for the etching process depending on the profile height standard deviation value. In particular, when the standard deviation is less than 1 nm, all surface protrusions, for which the spatial spectrum harmonics of the profile are located in the region of the maximum slope of the spectral function, are most actively etched. This leads to a decrease in the effective width of the spatial spectrum of a rough quartz surface and an increase in its correlation length. Therefore, simultaneously with decreasing the height of the protrusions, the surface becomes flatter. The paper shows the different character of quartz surface nano-polishing process conditions depending on the initial standard deviation of the profile height.","PeriodicalId":55995,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Optics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42657501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Response time of temperature modulation was tested which is suitable for the tuning requirements of gas detection systems. Laser current can be injected within the range from 40 to 80 mA.

The physical principles of laser modulation theory are discussed before experiments. Experiments show that the output wavelength of the laser can be tuned accurately through changing the working current and temperature. The wavelength can be linearly controlled by temperature at 0.115 nm/°C (I = 70 mA) and be controlled by current at 0.0140 nm/mA (T = 25°C).

Because of slow progress, the disease exhibits a small number of symptoms in the initial stages, therefore causing the disease identification to be a complicated task. So, a fully automatic framework is mandatory, which can support the screening process and increase the chances of disease detection in the early stages. In this paper, we deal with the localization and segmentation of the OD and OC for glaucoma detection from blur retinal images. We have presented a novel method that is Densenet-77-based Mask-RCNN to overcome the challenges of the glaucoma detection. Initially, we have performed the data augmentation step together with adding blurriness in samples to increase the diversity of data. Then, we have generated the annotations from ground-truth (GT) images. After that, the Densenet-77 framework is employed at the feature extraction level of Mask-RCNN to compute the deep key points. Finally, the calculated features are used to localize and segment the OD and OC by the custom Mask-RCNN model. For performance evaluation, we have used the ORIGA dataset that is publicly available. Furthermore, we have performed cross-dataset validation on the HRF database to show the robustness of the presented framework. The presented framework has achieved an average precision, recall, F-measure, and IOU as 0.965, 0.963, 0.97, and 0.972, respectively.
