Whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonantors are widely used as high sensitivity sensors due to their high quality factor, small microcavity volume and size. However, many WGM sensors are currently available only under laboratory conditions. Therefore, improving the anti-interference ability of coupling systems by packaging methods has received much attention in actual applications. For WGM sensors, the packaging method largely depends on the coupling method and sensing parameters. In this paper, we briefly introduce several coupling methods, especially the structural characteristics of coupling elements. Then, we review various packaging menthods, mainly including glue, holder, in fiber and microfluidic system packaging method. The final section provides a comprehensive overview of the sensing application of different packaged WGM sensors. It is hoped that this research will contribute to a clearer understanding of packaging methods and promote the practical application of WGM sensors.
Fluorescence film thickness and optical aberrations are important systematic error sources of curved surface metrology in fluorescence-aided scattering confocal microscopy (FSCM). In this paper, we established a tilted surface measurement model in FSCM to analyse the influence of fluorescent film thickness and aberrations on the measurement accuracy under different local slope angles of a curved surface. The simulation results demonstrate that the systematic errors caused by the fluorescence film thickness on free-form surface measurements increase with the local slope angle of the surface. The systematic errors caused by optical aberrations will lead to significant deviations between the measured and the actual surface when the local slope angle is greater than the complementary angle of the half aperture angle of the objective lens. Our studies allow for analysing the systematic errors caused by fluorescence film thickness and optical aberrations in different situations, thus contributing to the uncertainty evaluation of free-form surface measurement by FSCM.
In the domain of phase measuring deflectometry (or fringe projection profilometry), utilizing only a single-frame fringe pattern to achieve high-precision three-dimensional reconstruction has emerged as a focal point of ongoing research. To achieve four-step phase-shifting demodulation from a single-frame fringe pattern, this paper proposes a Polarization Interferometry Phase Measuring Deflectometry (PIPMD). This method primarily relies on a Michelson polarization interferometry structure to produce projected polarization interference fringes, which are then captured by a polarization camera as modulated single-frame deformed fringe patterns. These single-frame fringe patterns enable pixelated four-step phase shifting with adjacent 2 x 2 pixel units. To validate the proposed method, a series of experiments has been conducted, including surface shape detection of a concave spherical mirror and an off-axis parabolic mirror, as well as dynamic deformation measurements of a deformable mirror. All experimental results consistently indicate that the polarization interference-based fringe projection technique can achieve synchronized phase-shifting demodulation of single-frame fringe patterns, thereby facilitating high-precision reconstruction of the fringe patterns captured in a single frame. This synchronous phaseshifting technique can overcome the influence of air disturbances in traditional four-step phase-shifting methods, thereby enhancing the accuracy of phase demodulation. Additionally, this polarization interference-based Phase Measuring Deflectometry exhibits promising application prospects in dynamic measurements.

It is known that there are obvious fly-back zone errors in the area of 2 1r phase resets of spatial light modulators(SLMs). It reduces the diffraction efficiency of the SLM, as a result, the accuracy of the wavefront modulation will be reduced. To reduce the fly-back zone error, this paper proposes a zoning variable module phase wrapping method based on the grayscale segmentation, which is marked as the module-n1 1r-n2 1r method. The experimental results show that the root-mean-square (RMS) value of the astigmatism term's deviation is from 0.0413 2 reduced to 0.0277 2, which proves that the proposed method can improve the reconstruction accuracy of the non-rotationally symmetric aberrations and can effectively reduce the fly-back zone error. Compared with the traditional module-2 1r method, the module-n1 1r-n2 1r method does not need to consider the 2 1r correction of the modulation depth, therefore, it is more flexible and convenient. With the improvement of the wavefront modulation accuracy of SLMs, it will play a more important role in adaptive interferometry for optical freeform surfaces.

It is known that the phase response of spatial light modulators (SLMs) measured by double-beam interferometers is sensitive to mechanical and environmental disturbances. This paper proposes a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHWS) method to measure the phase response characteristics of the SLM. The results show that the phase modulation depth measured by the proposed method is 1.7581λ, and 1.7993λ by the Twyman-Green interferometer method. The difference in the phase modulation depth between the two methods is only 0.0412λ, and its relative error rate is 2.29%. It proves that the phase modulation accuracy obtained by the SHWS with lenslets of 73*73 used in this paper is equivalent to that of the Twyman-Green interferometer. Compared with the interferometer method, the SHWS method is simple, compact, and robust, has good real-time performance, and is relatively vibration insensitive. In the future, the SHWS method will play a more important role in the detection of the SLM's phase response.

The primary mirror component is an important part of the Cassegrain system. As the first-stage imaging component, the RMS surface error directly affects the image quality of the whole optical system. In this article, taking the primary mirror component of a certain type of Cassegrain aerial camera as the research object, the factors affecting the RMS precision of the primary mirror surface are analyzed in detail from aspects of back supporting structure design, platen elastic crimping design, simulation analysis, test verification and so on. Using the finite element method to simulate the primary mirror supporting structure, analyzes the influence on the primary surface error by the three-point supporting structure in different positions. Furthermore, analyzes the variations of the primary mirror surface error under the influence of three-point supporting structure and pressure plate. The last but not the least, analyzes the primary mirror surface error under the different pressure conditions, concludes the optimal supporting point position and the excellent elastic compression. After the primary mirror assembling, through test verification, the RMS is 0.0270λ, which is better than the original design requirement of λ/35(0.0286λ). And the RMS variation between before and after assembling is less than 0.005λ. Performing the high and low temperature test on the primary component, after test, the RMS values is 0.0269λ, it proves that the primary frame structure and its axial supporting structure have little effects on the RMS precision of the primary mirror. It can also meet the requirement of the large-aperture primary mirror surface in the co-optical system under complex conditions. The feasibility of the structure design has been verified.

Basing on analyzing the surface roughness with different grinding parameters, there are conclusions as follow: The modeling of the grinding wheel surface based on PSD could effectively simulate and analyze the grinding surface of the grinding wheel. Both the simulation experiment and the actual experiment show that the consistency of the trend. The surface roughness decrease with the increasing of the grinding speed and increase with the increasing of feed rate and the grinding depth.
In modern street battle, counter-sniper operations have become the main issue. However, due to the strong unidirectionality of laser beam, it is necessary to shape the laser beam to became useful. At the same time, in order to improve the detection efficiency, the energy of the laser beam is required to be as concentrated as possible, and the detection range is as wide as possible.

So as to achieve the laser detection efficiency and detection distance requirements.

Diffractive optical elements (DOEs),with their excellent optical properties,can modulate the ideal wavefront,and have greater advantages in correcting chromatic aberration than spherical or aspherical optical systems.The difficulty in the processing of DOE lies in the fact that its processing accuracy requires not only that the surface shape of the aspherical substrate satisfies the accuracy requirements,but also that the phase saltation position and the height of the diffractive structure satisfy the requirements.Due to the discontinuity of the surface and the phase saltation position,the traditional detection method is difficult to meet the requirements.The detection error source of the profiler was analyzed,and the machining error data was analyzed in combination with the detection data.Based on this,the data processing was performed.The error data obtained by this method was applied to the part processing,and the surface shape error of the 120 mm diffractive surface was 0.539 μm.
