High efficiency nanohole based immersion metalens for light concentration
6 August 2021 ASELSAN


Abstract


Design and performance analysis of a high efficiency, nanohole based, polarization-insensitive, all-dielectric, immersion metalens is presented, which is to be monolithically integrated into a backside illuminated HgCdTe based photodetector with CdZnTe (4%) as the substrate material for MWIR (3-5 μm) applications. Although HgCdTe based IR imaging dominate the high-performance end of the market, enhancing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) performance is still one of the challenges. This is typically dealt with either by improving the quantum efficiency (QE) with the employment of AR surfaces and photon trapping schemes or by decreasing the noise level with a reduction in detector volume. Decreasing either the thickness or the area of the detector, which comes with a performance degradation in QE in return, does the volume reduction. Nevertheless, the reduced QE can be recovered through light concentration with the employment of microlenses in the case of reduced area, which is typically realized with curved lenses presenting curve formation and packaging related issues. These issues can be overcome with the utilization of lithography-compatible metalenses carved into the substrate material. Thus, in this study, a nanohole based array of 40×40 is optimized to be monolithically integrated into CdZnTe (4%) substrate with a placement period of 1.0μm, a depth of around 4.9μm in order to construct a metalens structure with a numerical aperture of 0.63, and operation wavelength of 4.0μm. The nanohole width changes within a range of 0.35μm to 0.83μm in order to provide 2π phase coverage. Single layer of SiO2 based antireflective surface is introduced to the design in order to enhance the focusing efficiency, which is determined to be around 91%.

Optical design of triple-mode seeker (Interpretation of the OMTAS anti-tank project with imported detectors. There is no information on national detector work.)

In missile applications, new counter measure methods are getting more complex. To discriminate and detect
counter measure and to understand target signature from scene is getting harder. Because of all that concerns,
using triple-mode seeker for a system solution is a good solution for system total performance. By this way, tridifferent wavelength could be used for same system and same scene. In this study, triple mode system’s optical
designs have been made for mid-wave infra-red imaging, long-wave infra-red imaging and short-wave infrared
imaging. Optical designs performances have been illustrated in simulation results. Finally, conceptual design of
triple mode seeker will be summarized.

The effects of M2 factor on steel

This paper presents the effects of M2 (M square) factor of the laser source on steel materials in terms of spot size, duration of exposure and power density. Generally, laser sources are modelled as a Gaussian beam. M2 factor is known as the beam quality factor and it represents the degree of variation of a laser beam from an ideal Gaussian beam. It determines how well a laser beam will focus or diverge. According to ISO 11146-1, M2 is defined as BPP (Beam Parameter Product) divided by λ/π. It is also related to beam waist and divergence angle. A perfect beam would be a single mode TEM00 laser beam. Single mode fibers have smaller core diameter. It means that it can focus more easily than multi mode fiber laser can. In this study damage effects of CW lasers, which have 1070 nm wavelength, on 1 mm thick steel target plate are examined. Effects of using two different M2 values at different output powers are investigated experimentally and the results are discussed. These results will help compare the theory with experimental results.

Research on the cutting-edge application of high energy laser CUAS technology (This article was not Roketsan's. At the last moment, it's escaped my eye)

In order to further study the application of laser technology in Counter-Unmanned Aerial System (C-UAS), this paper
makes a systematic, analytical, comprehensive and cutting-edge summary of a large number of literatures. On this basis, about 545 C-UAS products from 38 countries of origin and 277 manufacturers around the world are analyzed, with emphasis on products with laser interception capability. In the process of discussion, on the one hand, the development of laser C-UAS systems in different countries and their successful applications in practical tasks are reviewed longitudinally with time as a clue; on the other hand, the data statistics from multiple angles of existing laser C-UAS systems around the world are carried out horizontally. Finally, on the basis of a large number of literature analysis, several main bottlenecks in the future development of HEL systems are extracted, and the future development trend are prospected.

Effects of tilt and decenter on power density in an optomechanics design for high-power laser systems

This paper presents effects of tilt and decenter caused by vibration on spot size and shape. The ideal spot shape for a laser source can be modeled as a Gaussian curve. In high-power laser systems, focusing the laser beam on a target is very crucial to increase the power density. The laser spot size should be small to focus the energy on a small area on the target adequately. Thus, it is necessary that the optomechanical system mustn’t be affected by environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, vibration, etc. In this study, the effect of vibration on optomechanical design is examined. Results of optomechanical design analysis performed by using the finite element method are take into account to get tilt and decenter values as an input. The analysis is based on the MIL-STD-810G standard. As a result of the analysis, tilt and decenter values exposed to optomechanical design are determined and these values were provided as the input to the optical design.



Comparison of passive athermalization results of LWIR optical designs utilizing different infrared optical materials

In this paper, different optical designs, which are composed of different LWIR optical materials, are utilized for passive athermalization and their performance in athermalization are analyzed. The optical designs are carried out by preserving the athermal property as well as keeping the image quality at higher levels within the working temperature between –40 ºC and +60 ºC. Our designs consist of two different infrared optical elements to maintain the focus positions as stable as possible within the working temperature. The passive athermalization process begins with the calculation of athermalization conditions of candidate material properties. By taking into account these conditions, athermal material pairs are chosen. The optical design begins with an optimization process using paraxial optics. In order to reduce aberrations such as coma, astigmatism, spherical and chromatic, aspherical surfaces are utilized during the optimization process. At the end of the design phase, the performance of different configurations of athermal optical material pairs, which are enclosed by aluminum alloy housing material, are presented.

OPTICAL DESIGN OF A DUAL BAND INFRARED SEEKER FOR PRECISION GUIDED SYSTEMS

Infrared guided systems are used to track the target and destroy it, by using the radiation emitted from it. The main components of the guided systems can be listed as follows: a dome, a lens-set (or mirrors) and a detector. In this study, the optical design of a seeker, operating in two bands of infrared (MWIR–LWIR), is performed. Dual-band optics design has been developed by using two softwares: Zemax, OpticStudio. Before the design the seeker-optics is started, the commercially available dual-band IR detectors are searched by comparing the performances of the latest detector technologies. By using the optical parameters of the selected detector, the design of the IR imaging seeker is completed for the operation within the wavelength range of 3 – 10 µm. The temperature dependence of the optical design is also examined by using four different body materials, for the large temperature interval ranging from –40 to +80 °C. The defocusing effect caused by using different materials is fixed by passive-optical-athermalization technique. The design is completed evaluating the cost and availability of the materials used in the design. The field of view of the optical system is found to be 16°. MTF value of each field is higher than 50% when the spatial frequency takes a value of 23 lp/mm. The results are analyzed and discussed in terms of spot-diagram, modulation transfer function (MTF), Seidel diagram and encircled energy distribution.

Investigation of the star tracker algorithms and kalman filter integration​


This research outlines the investigation of star tracker algorithms and Kalman Filter implementation of star tracker aided INS. In the first chapter, the usage areas of the star tracker sensor was investigated. The purposes to use this sensor were also included. Furthermore, the sensor architecture and algorithms were examined. In the second chapter, the three main steps of the star tracker algorithms were investigated. First of all, literature survey about centroiding algorithms was done and two of them were examined in detail. Then, the literature about star matching algorithms was searched. Liebe’s triangle method and Astrometry.net’s quad method were investigated in detail. Finally, the research about the attitude determination algorithms was made. The studies made about three of them which are SVD, Triad and Quest methods were shown. In the last chapter, the results of an Extended Kalman Filter implementation of star tracker aided INS were demonstrated. For this implementation, a high altitude aircraft was chosen because star tracker sensor gives more accurate results in high altitudes. To simulate a high altitude aircraft, X-15 aircraft simulation was used in the Airlib library of Simulink. Assumptions were made about the accuracies of the star tracker sensor and INS according to the sensors that can be used in the high altitude aircrafts. Moreover, the simulation architecture of the Kalman Filter implementation, which makes attitude correction, was investigated.
