摘要:Liquid crystal wavefront corrector can easily achieve 10 μm phase stroke correction through kinoform diffraction pattern. Therefore, the liquid crystal adaptive optics (LCAO) system is very promising in the field of astronomical observations in the 21st century. Disadvantages of the liquid crystal wavefront corrector are low response speed and low energy efficiency. Our group not only solves the energy problem, but also continuously improves the performance of speed. The LCAO system developed by our group is connected to the 1.23 m telescope. As a result, Saturn and its planetary ring was clearly observed, and the α-Com binary was also resolved. The imaging resolution is up to 1.8 times of the diffraction limit of the 1.23 m telescope. Currently the system is only a 2 ms delay, and it has entered the engineering stage. Therefore, the LCAO system has potential applications in 8 to 10 m large diameter astronomy telescope.
摘要:On the basis of Berreman 4×4 matrix,the theoretical model of optical rotatory rate of short pitch CLC(Cholesteric Liquid Crystal) was established and calculated. Variations of the optical rotation angle with external factors like incident angle,pitch and the thickness of LC cell were simulated by MATLAB and also verified by experiments. Experimental research on temperature sensor of CLC optical rotatory was studied as well. The optical rotatory angle curves with temperature of CLC from pitch 250 nm to 310 nm in different conditions were measured by polarimeter to get the thermal sensing rotatory characteristics of CLC. Results illustrated that CLC optical rotatory angle varies obviously and regularly with temperature in different conditions even though there's differences on different pitch. The stability of its thermal sensing effect was verified by experiments too. The results proved that CLC can be used as a potential thermal sensing materiels. The study provided experimental basis for CLC's use on temperature sensor.

摘要:In order to obtain fast response liquid crystal optics devices, six kinds of single fluorinated isothiocyanate phenyl-tolane liquid crystal compounds were synthesized via couple reaction and reduction. Δn value of these LCs is very high, about 0.432~0.681. IR and HNMR spectrograms indicated that the structure was correct. DSC test results showed that these LCs became into liquid crystal phase at about 90 ℃. When these LC compounds were mixed in the commercial alkyne LCs respectively, the LCs compounds with its fluorine atom at 2 position exhibited low viscosity, but the LCs compounds with its fluorine atom at 3 position had better figure of merit. Of course, these LCs compounds could be used in the LC optics devices.

摘要:In order to meet the different demands of the LCD, six novel polyflurinated dielectric anisotropy liquid crystalline compounds were synthesized. These compounds were synthesized from 2,3-difluoro-propylbenzene or 2,3-difluoro-1-ethoxybenzene by several steps. Their constructions were confirmed by NMR,elemental analysis and GC-MS. The parameters and the performances of these products were measured by DSC, Abbe refractometer and capacitance inductance tester. These polyfluorinated compounds have large optical anisotropy(Δn=0.22~0.33)and large negative dielectric anisotropy(Δε=-7.63~-12.02). These compounds can be used in the LCD matrix to improve partial performance of the LCD. The preparation method is of simple operation and low cost (totle yield: 50%), which can also realize industrialization easily.

摘要:The performance of vanadyl phthalocyanine (VOPc) thin film transistor with different modified surfaces is studied. The surface morphology of VOPc films on different modified surfaces were observed through atomic force microscopy (AFM) maps, and the electrical properties of VOPc OTFT were also observed through semiconductor parameter test instrument. The experimental results reveal that the VOPc film on octadecyltrichlorosilane(OTS-18) modified substrate has much larger crystal size and better film than those on octyltrichlorosilane(OTS-8) and phenyltrichlorosilane(PTS). The VOPc TFT with bottom-gate top-contact type on OTS-18 treated substrate has the highest mobility (0.52 cm2/V·s) in the four devices, which is 40 times relative to that on non modified. The interaction force between VOPc and SiO2 can be effectively isolated by the length of alkyl chain, conducive to the formation of large grain size and less film quality defects, the high mobility of TFT device can be achieved. The thickness of the self-assembled monolayer on the insulating layer can significantly affect the growth of VOPc films and the performance of device. This conclusion could be supplied as experiment and theory foundations for the fabrication of high-performance TFT and the growth of organic semiconductor thin film.
摘要:Liquid Crystal Display requires low power consumption, good uniformity of light as a backlight. In order to reduce power consumption and improve the quality of the display image, the future of Liquid Crystal Display backlight needs to realize that time and array can be modulated. Compared with conventional Liquid Crystal Display backlight, zinc oxide field emission backlight has been researched. In this field emission backlight, zinc oxide nanostructure has been taken on as field emission cathode, a planar gate structure to achieve luminance modulation, a metal grid with magnesium secondary electron emitting layer as a focus electrode to achieve uniform illumination. The results showed that a zinc oxide field emission backlight with a focus electrode having a low turn-on field (1.1 V/μm), a relative small voltage modulation range (less than 150 V), a high luminous intensity (greater than 1 000 cd/m2), and the electron focusing structure design would achieve a uniform and stable illumination, which could improve the image quality of the liquid crystal display. With this zinc oxide electron focused field emission backlight, the light emission from backlight could be modulated by time and array independence, while the uniformity of light emission could also be improved, zinc oxide electron focused field emission backlight would be ideal as the LCD backlight.

摘要:To eliminate the impact of chip supply constraint to equipment manufacture, an LCD controller compatible with the original driver is developed based on FPGA, which collaborates with mainstream memory chip of SDRAM, and updates the corresponding hardware circuit of the equipment. The LCD controller employs modularized design, and the system is split into many sub functional blocks such as host interface, memory controller, arbiter, registers, asynchronous FIFO and so on. The sub blocks are modeled with the finite state machine method and programmed with Verilog. Via parameterized configuration, the LCD controller can flexibly support display modes of different resolutions and can effectively meet the requirement of application diversity in the case of keeping original software system untouched. The LCD controller has been tested on demo circuit, and the result shows a stable running, clear image and good visual effect. The practice has proved that the design of the LCD controller is of good configurability, reusability and portability, and can act as an effective solution to similar issues.

摘要:The traditional methods of saliency detection tend to blur the border and internal texture of interested target, which usually destroys the integrity of the target by applying the center-surround diffe-rences. As to this problem, this paper proposes a saliency detection method based on texture inhibition and continuous distribute estimation in order to obtain better saliency detection results. This paper proposes a saliency detection method based on texture inhibition and continuous distribute estimation. Firstly, bilateral filter is used to smooth texture disturbances of the target and background region, while retaining the major edges between the target and background. Then SLIC superpixel image segmentation algorithms are used to divide the pixels into groups which have lots of pixels with the same characteristics. Then features of segment region are extracted by multidimensional normal distribution, and the similarity of feature saliency is calcula-ted by two norm Wasserstein distance. At last, saliency region can be extracted by the local and global saliency detection. The experiment result shows that the experiment method in this paper can extract saliency region effectively. The experiment results show that our method can obtain better detection result.

摘要:For enhancing fusion accuracy of infrared and visible images, an adaptive fusion algorithm based on local area singular value decomposition (SVD) and pulse coupled neural networks (PCNN) is proposed. Local area singular value decomposition in each source image is done to construct a local structure information index which is served as linking strength of each neuron in PCNN. After the processing of PCNN with the adaptive linking strength, new fire mapping images of source images are obtained, the clear objects of source images are selected by the compare-selection operator with the fire mapping images pixel by pixel and then all of them are merged into a new clear image. Some fusion experiments on several sets of infrared and visible images are done and objective performance assessments are implemented to fusion results. The experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm performs better in subjective and objective assessments than a few existing typical fusion techniques in the literature and can obtain better fusion performance.

摘要:Traditional grayscale-based image edge detection algorithms generally suffer from the disadvantages in weak anti-noise ability, sensitivity to direction and coarse edge details. Based on the analysis of statistics and characteristics of color images, this paper presents a modified algorithm for color image edge detection that combines the Sobel operator and a fast median filtering. By expanding the direction templates of the edge detection operator, the modified algorithm can improve the abilities to adapt the complex texture images and resist strong noises. The modified algorithm is implemented on the Altera DE2-70 FPGA hardware development platform by programming with the Verilog HDL language and the Megafunctions of Quartus II. The experimental results show that the processing of the modified algorithm reasonably takes up only about 2% of system hardware resources to accurately locate the image edges and efficiently extract the edges of color images in real time under strong noises.
摘要:In order to realize a image steganography with a high hiding capacity and undetectability, based on the fact that the changes in image edges are insensitive to human eyes, a novel adaptive algorithm employing multiple edge detection and Minimum Error Replacement (MER) is presented. By Canny operator, large numbers of edge pixels are picked out and the secret information can be embeded into the edge pixels and common pixels to a certain proportion. To compensate for the resulting decrease in the Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), MER method is used. Experimental results indicate that when the Baboon is chosen as cover image and the proportion of embedding the secret information is 4:1, the hiding capacity is 525 612 bit and PSNR is 41.3 dB. This algorithm not only has a high hiding capacity and good visual qualities, but also easy to carry out.
摘要:As the brain is complicated, which has precision texture, and imaging technologies is limited, there will be an over segmentation issue if the traditional watershed algorithm is used to segment brain tumor. As a matter of method, some pre-processing is proposed before applying the watershed segmentation: firstly, morphological opening and closing reconstruction is used to reconstruct the original image and to filter the noise and fine texture; secondly, the multi-scale morphological gradient is used in the reconstructed image, and the watershed segmentation algorithm is used in the gradient image of modified marker. Experiments results indicate that the tumor can be separated completely when structural element radius size is used from 17 to 22. Compared with the traditional watershed segmentation algorithm, this method alleviates the over segmentation problem, and tumor can be separated easily from the original image.

摘要:Anti-aliasing of the triangle rasterization whose edge has ladder phenomenon obviously is proposed in this paper. The method of adding interpolation points outer the horizontal and the method of anti-aliasing line unilateral are discussed, based on Wu anti-aliasing algorithm. The advantages of both methods are considered in order to draw triangle rasterization. Wu anti-aliasing line is overlaid for the edge at the same time. And the gray value of background pixel is under consideration. The result shows that the improved edge anti-aliasing algorithm of triangle rasterization effectively improves the display of the triangle rasterization edge. The principle is simple and it is easy to implement on FPGA. Therefore the improved algorithm can be applied to cockpit display system which needs high display quality urgently.
摘要:An adaptive watermarking algorithm based on computer generated holography with strong robustness is proposed. Firstly, two original watermarks are converted to holograms using the computer generated holography by the conjugate-symmetric extension. And the holograms are encrypted by the pre-process method. Then, the original image is decomposed into two pyramidal levels by Contourlet transform, and the intermediate frequency is transformed into eight directional subbands. Finally, encrypted holograms are embedded into the directional subbands adaptively. Experiments demonstrate that the PSNR of watermarked image is 38.385 7 dB. The extracted watermarks can be well recognized when JPEG compression quality factor is bigger than 30 and cropping part is less than 30%. The proposed method also can well resist attacks such as Gaussian noise, salt & pepper noise, speckle noise, Gaussian filtering, median filtering and average filtering. And the watermarks extracted from print-scan experiment can be well recognized. In the phase of watermark extraction, original image is not needed. The watermarking technology proposed can be widely used in copyright protection of digital and printed images.
