Cirrus clouds play an important role in atmospheric radiation. Cirrus clouds are mainly composed of tiny ice crystals. Due to the development of industrialization, the ice crystal particles in cirrus may contain some pollutants. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the scattering properties of nucleated ice crystal particles. The research method of this paper is to use Python to write a model file of nucleated long hexagonal prism and flat regular hexagonal ice crystal particles. DDSCAT, an open source software package developed based on DDA, was used to read the model file and calculate the variation of extinction, scattering and absorption efficiency factors with wavelength and effective radius of the two models illuminated by a plane wave. The results show that Qext, Qabs and Qsca are sensitive to the number of ammonium sulfate nuclei and the shape of ice crystals. The results of this paper are expected to provide theoretical support for the study of cirrus scattering characteristics.
In this article, the scattering transmission of laser beam in the dust haze with low visibility is studied, which provides a reference for the laser beam experiment under the condition of air conditions with dust haze. According to the gamma distribution of particle size of sand dust particles, the attenuation of laser beam at different wavelengths of sand dust particles with different water content is studied by using The Discrete Dipole Approximation (DDA) and Rayleigh approximation equivalent method of equal volume sphere. The results show that the greater the water content, the greater the attenuation of laser beam; the comparative calculation of dust particles and haze main components at different wavelengths. The results show that the absorption factor of dust particles is larger than that of other haze components except carbon sol, while the scattering factor is slightly smaller than that of haze components. Considering the different proportions of dust haze components and visibility, Monte Carlo method is used to study the transmission transmittance and reflectivity of dust particles in dust haze. The attenuation characteristics of the laser beam caused by the dust haze particles in the state of coated water layer and the dust haze particles in waterless coating condition layer are calculated. Through the research and calculation of this paper, we can clearly and intuitively see the attenuation characteristics of laser beam caused by dust haze. Therefore, it is very necessary to study the attenuation of laser beam caused by dust haze.
Optical properties of the fog haze of ammonium sulphate particles including sphere, ellipsoid and cluster consisting of 10 spheres are calculated by using Discrete dipole approximation method (DDA); The change of the efficiency factor with these particles of size parameters and the variation of the ratio of scattering field intensity and the incident field intensity with the scattering angle are obtained and analyzed. The calculation these parameters laid a solid foundation for the following processing of the scattering characteristics of complex particles and the light transmission in the medium of fog haze.
As an important part of almost all laser systems, optical film is so fragile that easy to damage because of
temperature rise. Based on temperature field theory and thermal conduction equation, the physical model of
temperature field of multiplayer films illuminated by Gaussian laser is built. By solving the Maxwell equation, the
average energy flow rate of plane wave with unit intensity propagation through the films is obtained. The numerical
calculation program of the temperature field of multiplayer films illuminated by 1064nm laser is built using
alternating direction-implicit technique. The simulation results show that laser spot radius, heat exchange coefficient,
laser power and film material have a great effect on the temperature field of multiplayer films. These are the key
factors to damage the optical films. The results obtained in this paper would be both theoretical basis and reference
for optical thin film components developing.
The laser diode(LD) beam propagate through the collimating lens is studied here beyond the paraxial approximation, the
ray from the LD entering the lens at coordinates on one face emerges at approximately the same coordinate on the
opposite face. The lens delays an incident wavefront by an amount proportional to the thickness of the lens at each point,
Further propagation of this field can be adequately represented by the calculation of the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld (RS)
diffraction integral, and the stationary-phase method is employed in order to find the asymptotic expansion of the
diffraction integral. The propagation optical field after the lens is obtained. The model employed to predict the light
intensity at various beam cross sections.
A new model is applied to describe the field distribution at the output of the
LDAs. Formalism describing of the far-field radiation patterns of a laser arrays is
presented, base on rigorous solutions of the Helmholtz equations. The
beam-divergence angles normal and parallel to the junction plane are concluded.
Theoretical results presented are in close agreement with the experiments. and the
final result is expressed in a form convenient for diffraction analysis of LDAs beams.
Beam quality is very important in laser technology and its application. In practice a good beam quality evaluating method can indicate which beam is good and which laser is suitable. Therefore evaluating beam quality is of huge significance. Because the beam of laser diode has many characteristics differ from other lasers, such as the angle of the beam is too big, and the angle in the direction parallel to the junction plane disagrees with it in the perpendicular direction, a new quality parameter Q(θ,ω,d) for evaluating beam quality of laser diode is given. The difficulty of collimation is well expressed by use of Q. The smaller the value of Q is, the more easily the beam is collimated.
The propagation characteristics of Hermite-cosine-Gaussian beams passing through an ABCD optical system with hard-edge aperture is studied, by means of expansion of the window’s function of the hard-edge aperture into a finite sum of complex Gaussian functions, the approximate analytical propagation equations of laser beams are derived.
