The infrared spectral emissivity of selective radiators varies with wavelength. Selective radiators have good application prospects in solar energy utilization, camouflage, radiation refrigeration and other fields. In this paper, a selective radiator which has low emissivity in mid-far infrared band is designed by using frequency selective surface. The electromagnetic characteristics of the selective radiator in mid-far infrared band are calculated by using HFSS simulation software. Through calculation, it is found that the designed selective radiator has high reflectivity and low transmittance for the incident electromagnetic wave at 3-14μm band. In this paper, the reflection and transmission characteristics of the selective radiator to electromagnetic wave were calculated at three incident angles of 0o, 15o and 30o. The calculated results show that with the increase of incident Angle, the band stop filter bandwidth of the selective radiator increases, and the resonant wavelength moves to the short-wave direction, but the variation range is not large. The filtering characteristics of bands above 6μm show better band resistance with the increase of incidence Angle.
The spectral emissivity of the surface of the selective radiation body changes with the change of wavelength. Selective infrared radiator is designed based on frequency selective surface theory. Selective radiators can be achieved using periodic structures, which has the peculiar electromagnetic properties, and has a good regulating effect on the transmission of electromagnetic wave by scientific and reasonable design. Using HFSS software, a frequency selection surface based on periodic single-screen ring was constructed. The ring was made of metallic gold, the dielectric layer was made of silicon dioxide, and the parameters of the basic unit were in the order of micron. The modulation characteristics of electromagnetic wave transmittance of the surface in the infrared band are calculated. It is found that the designed selective radiator has an emissivity of less than 0.1 in the 6.44-10 micrometer band. It is found that with the increase of the interval, the bandwidth of the low transmittance at the long wave becomes narrow. If the inside diameter of the ring is kept unchanged, the outside diameter of the ring is increased. As the width of the ring increases, the resonance frequency of the electromagnetic wave at the long wave decreases and the bandwidth of the low emissivity increases. As the width of the ring decreases, the resonance frequency of electromagnetic wave moves from high frequency to low frequency and the bandwidth of low emissivity decreases. Bandwidth with a transmittance of less than 10% varies from 17.6THz to 16.6 THz. Finally, the application of selective radiator is discussed.
A fast and effective algorithm for designing the diffraction optical element (DOE) with a wide-diffraction angle is presented. DOE had been widely used in many fields in recent years, but there are finite methods which can design DOE with wide-diffraction angle quickly occupying a small quantity of computing resource. By the use of a nonparaxial scalar diffraction equation as the light transmission operator, a modified iterative algorithm is proposed. To verify our algorithm, the checkerboard image, binary image, and gray-scale image are numerically simulated, respectively. The simulation results show that the final variance between the preset image and final pattern is very small, the value is generally lower than 10−5, and the natural images even have a final variance less than 10−12. At the same time, the diffraction efficiency has been significantly increased to be larger than 90%, which indicates that the design method is effective and practical.
Interference mechanism of laser disturbing infrared detector is analyzed. The disturbing grade was
separated into four levels according to interference effect. The levels are saturation, melting,
vaporization and plasma. The responsivity of a detector will drop and it can’t work effectively when it was saturated. Its performance wills recovery when the interference disappeared. Melting, Vaporization
and plasma will lead to permanent damage. The main damage to detector is thermal damage for
induced laser. The reason is that the detector will melt or evaporate when it absorbed the energy of induced laser. For HgCdTe detector, the damage appeared as Hg precipitation. It appeared as In exfoliated from welding outlet line of HgCdTe crystal or HgCdTe melting when the temperature of detector is higher. Since Vanadium Oxide has reversible transformation characteristic between
semi-conductor, metal and insulator, it can be used to protect detector from laser damage. Vanadium Oxide can be made as thin film coatings on optical system to protect the detector. the phase transformation point temperature of VO2 is 68°C,a few doping method can decrease the transformation
temperature. These mean that less energy can make VO2 film’s temperature increase to transformation
point. VO2 film protecting HgCdTe detector was used as an example to estimate the protection effect.
For an HgCdTe detector, its responsivity will drop two orders of magnitude when its temperature raises 70K. This case be regard as that the detector was disturbed. When a CO2 pulsed laser beam with 0.1μ
s∼10μs pulse width was incidence an HgCdTe detector, its heat conduction depth is 0.32∼3.2μm and its thermal diffusion can be ignored. The damage energy density threshold value is Ein=1.55J/cm2.
When CO2 pulsed laser beam incidence the detector through certain thickness VO2 film, the VO2 film
will has transformed from semiconductor state to metallic state before the laser beam damage the
detector. The energy of the laser beam will be total reflected. VO2 can be used as an intelligent preventer to protect detector against laser.
A new face recognition system was proposed, which used active near infrared imaging system (ANIRIS) as face images acquisition equipment, used kernel discriminative common vector (KDCV) as the feature extraction algorithm and used neural network as the recognition method. The ANIRIS was established by 40 NIR LEDs which used as active light source and a HWB800-IR-80 near infrared filter which used together with CCD camera to serve as the imaging detector. Its function of reducing the influence of varying illuminations to recognition rate was discussed. The KDCV feature extraction and neural network recognition parts were realized by Matlab programming. The experiments on HITSZ Lab2 face database and self-built face database show that the average recognition rate reached more than 95%, proving the effectiveness of proposed system.
For accurate knowledge of the impact of ejector technique on infrared radiation of the plume, the physical model of the rectangular nozzle is established. The 3-D flow field outside the rectangular nozzle is simulated by numerical method with software Fluent6.3 pre and post the application of ejector technique, then the data of the flow fields, such as temperature, pressure and density and so on, are obtained, and according to the characteristic of the rectangular nozzle plume the computational domain of infrared radiation was established. This paper uses Lorentz linear statistical narrow-band model to calculate the mean absorption coefficient of the plume in the narrow band. Then it uses Finite Volume Method(FVM) to solve the radiation transmission equations in gas medium, and it obtains the total intensity distribution in 3~5μm of the plume radiation pre and post the application of ejector technique. The results shows that the infrared radiant of the rectangular nozzle decreases significantly by 80% after the application of ejector technique.
