RESUMEN
This Letter presents the frequency-domain searching algorithm in deflectometry (FSAD). By encoding specialized multi-frequency fringe patterns and employing a correlation searching algorithm, the limitations of existing frequency-domain methods can be overcome to some extent, thereby separating front and back surface reflections to obtain complete measurement data. The principles of FSAD are described in detail. In the experiment, a piece of window glass with thickness of 10â mm and a square area of 96 × 96â mm is measured to verify the proposed method.
RESUMEN
A method based on deflectometry to measure the refractive index distribution of radial gradient refractive index (GRIN) lens is proposed in this paper. The method establishes the relationship between the refractive index distribution and the direction of light ray by deriving the propagation equation of light in a non-uniform medium. By measuring the deflection angle using the principle of deflectometry and the assumption of central refraction, the refractive index distribution of the radial GRIN lens is determined. The specific principle of refractive index measurement deflectometry (RIMD) is described in detail, and the correctness and accuracy of the method are verified through numerical simulations. Furthermore, the effects of calibration error, lens surface shape on the accuracy of the measurement results are analyzed. In the experimental section, the proposed method is applied to measure a radial GRIN lens, and the results are compared with the nominal parameters in terms of shape distribution and numerical values, demonstrating good consistency. The measurement error is controlled within the order of 10-3. This method enables rapid and convenient acquisition of full-field information of GRIN lens and holds promising potential for playing an important role in lens manufacturing and production.
RESUMEN
Antibiotics, the persistent organic pollutants, have brought serious pollution to the aquatic environment. Therefore, it is necessary to select rapid adsorbents to remove them from their long-term threat. Herein, the introduction of defects in BN was employed to enhance its surface chemical activity for rapid capture of tetracycline via hydrothermal and calcination methods. The defect content in BN can be controlled by adjusting the volume ratio of ethanol to water. Among them, when the volume ratio of H2O/ethanol is 4/1 (BN-3), BN-3 has the most N defects at 33%, which increases the adsorption rate of h-BN for TC and promotes the adsorption capacity to 302.15 mg g-1, which is due to the introduction of nitrogen defects significantly regulates the electronic structure of BN. The corresponding theoretical calculations confirm that BN with N defects decreases the absorption energy of BN for TC. Additionally, the adsorption removal rate of tetracycline still reached 95.5% after 5 cycles of TC adsorption by BN-3, indicating that the defect-modified BN has good reusability and is beneficial for its use in pollutant adsorption.
RESUMEN
As a highly accurate metrology, phase measuring deflectometry (PMD) can be used for in-situ surface shape measurement. However, due to the reflection off the back surface, PMD cannot measure both the front and back surfaces of the transparent planar element simultaneously. Therefore, this paper proposes a method for measuring the front and back surfaces of the transparent planar element. The phase distribution corresponding to the front and back surfaces can be firstly acquired by multi-frequency fringe deflectometry. Then, the front and back surface shapes can be obtained by inverse ray-tracing and nonlinear optimization. Numerical simulation and experiment verify the proposed method. The surface shape of window glass with a thickness of 10 mm is measured in the experiment. The surface shape error is around 50â nm in the root mean square with a diameter of 51 mm.
RESUMEN
A camera calibration method for phase measuring deflectometry (PMD) based on the entrance pupil center (EPC) of the camera lens is proposed. In our method, the position of the entrance pupil of the camera lens is first measured; next the absolute coordinates of the EPC are calibrated by using a reference flat and an external stop that is mounted in front of the camera lens; then the EPC as the camera coordinates is used for PMD. The feasibility of the proposed method is verified by simulation. The surface shapes of a planar optical element and a planar window glass are separately measured in our experiments, and a subwavelength accuracy level is achieved. Meanwhile, the effects of the camera lens with different aperture settings on captured images are investigated (including exposure time, image contrast, and measurement accuracy). The experimental results show that the exposure time required declines with the decrease in the f-number, and the measurement accuracy is higher than others when the f-numbers are changed from f/5.6 to f/11.
