In this work, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has been used for the quantitative and qualitative analysis of the sage sample using the calibration-free LIBS (CF-LIBS) technique. The sage plasma is generated by focusing the second harmonics (532 nm) of a Q-switched NdYAG laser with a repetition rate of 10 Hz and pulse duration of 5 ns. The emission spectra are recorded using a LIBS 2000 detection system spectrometer consisting of five high-resolution spectrometers covering a wavelength range from 200 to 720 nm. The optical emission spectra of the sage sample reveal the spectral lines of Fe, Ca, Ti, Co, Mn, Ni, and Cr. The plasma temperature and electron number density of the neutral spectral lines of the pertinent elements have been deduced using the Boltzmann plot and Stark-broadening line profile method, with average values 8855±885K and 3.89×1016cm-3, respectively. The average values of the plasma parameters were used for the quantification of the detected elements in the sample. Based on the calibration-free method, the measured results demonstrate that Fe is the major constituent in the sample, having a percentage concentration of 48.1%, while the remaining elements are Ca, Ti, Co, Mn, Ni, and Cr, with percentage concentrations 0.7%, 5.3%, 8%, 11%, 12.3%, and 14.6%, respectively. This study demonstrates the feasibility of LIBS for the compositional analysis of major and trace elements present in the plant samples and its further applications in medicine.We present the design and characterization of a zinc-indiffused periodically poled lithium-niobate ridge waveguide for second-harmonic generation of ∼390nm light from 780 nm. We use a newly developed, broadband near-infrared vertical external-cavity surface-emitting laser (VECSEL) to investigate the potential for lower-footprint nonlinear optical pump sources as an alternative to larger commercial laser systems. We demonstrate a VECSEL with an output power of 500 mW, containing an intracavity birefringent filter for spectral narrowing and wavelength selection. In this first demonstration of using a VECSEL to pump a nonlinear waveguide, we present the ability to generate 1 mW of ∼390nm light with further potential for increased efficiency and size reduction.A large transparent liquid crystal display (LCD) prototype with ultrahigh transmittance and good see-through property is demonstrated in this paper. The transmittance reaches more than 20% by introducing the RGBW pixel arrangement, a thin color filter process, a large aperture ratio design, as well as antireflective polarizer film. The see-through image quality is also greatly improved by suppressing the blurring by using domain reduction pixel design. All these approaches are applicable for large LCD panel products, and we expect broad applications of large transparent LCDs in the near future.Astronomical imaging with micro-arcsecond (µas) angular resolution could enable breakthrough scientific discoveries. Previously proposed µas x-ray imager designs have been interferometers with limited effective collecting area. Here we describe x-ray telescopes achieving diffraction-limited performance over a wide energy band with large effective area, employing a nested-shell architecture with grazing-incidence mirrors, while matching the optical path lengths between all shells. click here We present two compact nested-shell Wolter Type 2 grazing-incidence telescope designs for diffraction-limited x-ray imaging a micro-arcsecond telescope design with 14 µas angular resolution and 2.9m2 of effective area at 5 keV photon energy (λ=0.25nm), and a smaller milli-arcsecond telescope design with 525 µas resolution and 645cm2 effective area at 1 keV (λ=1.24nm). We describe how to match the optical path lengths between all shells in a compact mirror assembly and investigate chromatic and off-axis aberrations. Chromatic aberration results from total external reflection off of mirror surfaces, and we greatly mitigate its effects by slightly adjusting the path lengths in each mirror shell. The mirror surface height error and alignment requirements for diffraction-limited performance are challenging but arguably achievable in the coming decades. Because the focal ratio for a diffraction-limited x-ray telescope is extremely large (f/D∼105), the only important off-axis aberration is curvature of field, so a 1 arc sec field of view is feasible with a flat detector. The detector must fly in formation with the mirror assembly, but relative positioning tolerances are on the order of 1 m over a distance of some tens to hundreds of kilometers. Although there are many challenges to achieving diffraction-limited x-ray imaging, we did not find any fundamental barriers.Head-up displays (HUDs), as one kind of the augmented reality (AR) applications, enable users to enhance the situational awareness. In this paper, we propose a design of a HUD employing the freeform off-axis four-mirror construction, in which the eyebox and eye relief as large as 120mm×80mm and 400 mm, respectively, are derived. In the part of system design, the biocular parallax is evaluated and corrected. An optimization strategy in forward ray-tracing mode is presented to directly govern the biocular parallax, and the convergence, divergence, and dipvergence are finally constrained within 3.5 mrad, 1.5 mrad, and 2.0 mrad, respectively. An overall design procedure of a HUD, including initial configuration, structure constraints, optimization method, and parallax correction, is illustrated in detail. After analyzing the tolerance, a proof-of-concept prototype with the field of 24∘×15∘ is developed to demonstrate the image quality.The far-field pattern of an optical wave radiating from a grating coupler integrated in a directional coupler is discussed based on the coupled mode theory. It is shown that there are two types of intensity distributions with respect to the radiation angle. One type shows a simple single lobe, while the other has a deformed lobe or two lobes. Far-field patterns are discussed along with near-field patterns. They are determined by directional coupling strength as well as radiation decay strength. A parameter is introduced to indicate the type. The indicator is useful as a key parameter for device design.The aim of this study is to embed PANDA fiber into metal aluminum by using the ultrasonic additive manufacturing (UAM) technique. The functional sensing characteristics of the metallic structure were realized by structure design, precise positioning, and laying of the optical fiber and a tip coating (gold film) technique. The sensing characteristics of the metallic structure sensor including temperature, bending, tensile straining, and twist responses have been systematically investigated. Experimental results show that moderate sensitivity, good repeatability, and exactly linear spectral responses are obtained with -476.2pm/∘C for temperature, 1304pm/m-1 for bending, 0.6314pm/µε for tensile straining, and -332.3pm/(rad/m) for twisting. Based on its simple fabrication process and multifunctional measurement, it is clearly demonstrated that the metallic matrix structure with embedded PANDA fiber produced by the UAM technique is a functional structure with capabilities to monitor the structure health conditions and mechanical operation changes in applications.This paper presents a design for a high-efficiency, low-beam headlamp with Oliker's ellipses technology [Computing Lett.2, 29 (2006)1574-040410.1163/157404006777491981]. In addition to the one-time intrinsic light absorption of reflection, the designed low-beam lampshade can reflect all the light from the LED in the on-demand illumination range. This study proposes and adopts a matrix calculation method to accelerate the calculation speed of constructing an Oliker's composite ellipsoidal reflector, which in turn increases the ellipsoidal facet number of the compound ellipsoidal reflector. In the design of the low-beam headlamp, the illumination weight on the target plane is defined by the method of curve fitting, which ensures that the light-field pattern of the low-beam headlamp changes smoothly rather than in a patchy distribution. The content of this study itself also provides a design method and example for applying Oliker's ellipses technology to on-demand spatial lighting.Capillary electrophoresis coupled with sheath-flow laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection has been shown to offer outstanding sensitivity for chemical and biochemical analysis. However, a major drawback remains with the complexity of the optical configuration traditionally employed. Here we present a simplified confocal optics based on fiber optics and micro gradient-index (GRIN) lenses for modular optical design in capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence. We demonstrate the use of the optical system with a sheath-flow cuvette as the laser-induced fluorescence detector for capillary electrophoresis. The system's performance was established with concentration detection limits of 8±2pM and mass detection limits of 57 zeptomole for a standard sodium fluorescein sample.Broadband, coherent narrow-linewidth optical frequency synthesis is of crucial importance in dual-comb interferometric measurement. Here we present a detailed description of the construction and performance characterization of a hertz-level linewidth coherent optical frequency synthesizer across the optical telecommunication band. A narrow-linewidth cavity-stabilized laser at 1565.00 nm is built and coherently transferred through a fiber link with an additional fractional frequency instability of 2.0×10-16 at 1 s averaging time. Broadband, coherent optical frequency synthesis is then achieved by steering one mode of a laser frequency comb with the transferred optical frequency oscillation. By beating with a 1542.14 nm ultra-stable cavity-stabilized laser, the evaluated fractional frequency stability and absolute linewidth of the nearest synthesized optical oscillation are 3.5×10-15 at 1 s averaging time and 1.8 Hz, respectively. According to the ultra-low-noise feature of the utilized laser frequency comb of 4.7×10-17 at 1 s averaging time, the synthesized optical frequency oscillations could maintain the high coherence across the comb's output bandwidth.Microfacet-based material appearance models are commonly considered as a physical plausible representation of matter-light interaction. With such models, the microgeometry of a surface element is defined by a statistical distribution of microfacets. The mathematical formulation ensures physical plausibility, such as energy conservation and reciprocity. Many authors have addressed microfacet bidirectional scattering distribution function (BSDF) representations, with various normal distribution functions (NDFs) and their relationship with shadowing and masking, or the effects due to multiple light scattering on the microgeometry. However, an extensive study on how an actual microgeometry drives material appearance still is missing. This question is a key issue for inverse design and manufacturing. This paper contributes to filling this gap by proposing a complete pipeline composed of a microgeometry generation process and numerical lighting simulation. From any input NDF, our method generates a controlled and structured microgeometry, integrated within numerical light scattering simulation.
