Abstract:
Quantum time synchronization is an interdisciplinary frontier technology that integrates quantum technology with time-frequency technology. By leveraging the intrinsic nonlocal time correlation of frequency-entangled biphoton sources, two-way quantum time synchronization not only improves the precision of existing time synchronization by 1~2 orders of magnitude but also possesses inherent security advantages. This provides a new generation of transformative technical solutions for significantly enhancing time service precision and ensuring time service security. This paper focuses on the research progress achieved by the National Time Service Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the field of two-way quantum time synchronization: a model for evaluating the accuracy of two-way quantum time synchronization has been established; the first international demonstration of 10-femtosecond-level ultra-high-precision quantum time synchronization was reported; successful demonstrations of sub-picosecond-level time transfer were achieved on a 2 km free-space + 7 km field fiber hybrid link, hundred-kilometer field fiber link, and a 250 km ultra-long-distance fiber link, fully validating the high-precision synchronization ability of this technology under high-loss and strong-noise environmental conditions; meanwhile, the security advantages of the quantum time transfer system have been experimentally verified. These research achievements not only mark significant progress in the field of long-distance fiber-based quantum secure time transfer in China but also provide a highly compatible time synchronization solution for the future construction of large-scale quantum networks.

Abstract:
This review introduces Rydberg excitons as highly excited electron-hole pairs in semiconductors, highlighting their core characteristics: hydrogen-like energy levels, macroscopic quantum properties, strong interactions, and nonlinear optical response. It elaborates on cuprous oxide (Cu2O) as an ideal platform for observing high-order Rydberg states due to its low defect density and dipole-forbidden transitions. The analysis covers key properties of Rydberg excitons revealed through spectroscopic techniques and external field manipulation: micron-scale radii, high polarizability, long lifetimes, and large dipole moments. It further discusses the significantly enhanced long-range interactions between excitons at high principal quantum numbers, which lead to phenomena like excitonic blockade and nonlinear refraction. The discussion extends to the modulation of excitonic properties by external fields, including field-induced energy level splitting, alteration of transition selection rules, and selective excitation of specific states, while also noting the impact of environmental perturbations on spectral features. It is pointed out that Rydberg excitons have great potential for applications in cutting-edge fields such as weak-field sensing, on-chip single-photon devices, quantum simulation, and microwave-to-optical signal conversion due to their distinctive physical attributes and extreme sensitivity to external fields and the environment. The review proposes that in-depth research and exploitation of these properties represent a crucial direction for advancing high-performance quantum information technologies and precision sensing in the future.

Abstract:
To address the challenges of speckle image blurring and noise coupling caused by thermal airflow disturbances in high-temperature environments, a collaborative restoration method that integrates image degradation theory and multi-frame signal processing is proposed. Firstly, by constructing an adaptive loss function optimization model based on the Structural Similarity Index (SSIM), the degradation parameters are adaptively estimated, breaking through the limitations of the mismatch between the traditional fixed degradation model and the actual thermal disturbances. Then, by combining Wiener filtering and grayscale averaging techniques, the joint optimization of deblurring and denoising is achieved, solving the technical problem of balancing noise suppression and detail preservation. The verification results on a 600 °C high-temperature experimental platform show that the root mean square error of image displacement measurement processed by the traditional grayscale averaging method is 0.006 4 mm; the root mean square error of image displacement measurement processed by the high-temperature Digital Image Correlation (DIC) measurement method based on adaptive optimization of the degradation function and grayscale averaging is 0.004 7 mm, and the image quality is significantly improved, meeting the sub-pixel accuracy requirements. This method does not require the use of complex hardware and does not need to know the parameters of the heat flow field in advance, significantly improving the robustness of high-temperature DIC measurement. It provides a low-cost and high-precision solution for material deformation analysis under extreme working conditions and has important engineering application value.

Abstract:
To achieve high-precision measurement of the complete three-dimensional (3D) shape of double-specular-surface objects, a global optimization method for system calibration is proposed. Firstly, a double-specular-surface shape measurement system is established using two direct phase measuring deflectometry subsystems without overlapping Field-of-View (FoV), which fully covers the measured FoV of the double-specular-surface object. Secondly, traditional methods are applied for depth calibration, lateral calibration of each subsystem, and calibration of the transformation between the measurement references of the two subsystems. Finally, a high-precision double-specular-surface calibrator is employed to optimize the initial calibration parameters. Three measurement errors are introduced to evaluate the 3D measurement accuracy of the calibrator. By minimizing the defined measurement errors, the optimal calibration parameters are calculated. Comparative experiments were performed to verify the application effects of the global optimization system calibration method. When the initial system calibration method was used to obtain the system parameters, and then the complete 3D shape of a gauge block was reconstructed, the root mean square error (RRMSE) of the distance between the two surfaces of the gauge block was 164 μm. When the global optimization system calibration method was employed to determine the system parameters and reconstruct the complete 3D shape of the gauge block, the RRMSE for the distance between the two surfaces was reduced to 34 μm. The global optimization system calibration method effectively improves the 3D shape measurement accuracy of double-specular-surface objects, providing a technical reference for enhancing the calibration precision of multi-sensor optical measurement systems under non-common-view conditions.

Abstract:
Aiming at the problem of the decline in the accuracy of ultrasonic wall thickness measurement caused by temperature fluctuations during the operation of high-temperature petrochemical pipelines, a measurement method based on the inversion of temperature and the compensation of wall thickness by ultrasonic guided wave signals is proposed. A two-dimensional steady-state heat transfer model was established, the temperature field distribution of the waveguide strip was analyzed, an ultrasonic flight time prediction model was constructed, the quantitative relationship between the pipe temperature and the ultrasonic flight time in the waveguide was characterized, and the real-time measurement of the temperature of high-temperature pipes was achieved. On this basis, the ultrasonic guided wave thickness measurement data was compensated to improve the accuracy of pipe wall thickness monitoring. An ultrasonic guided wave measurement platform was built and experiments were performed. The results show that within the range of 15 ~ 500 ℃, this method can achieve precise measurement of the temperature change of the pipeline, and the measurement error of the wall thickness after compensation is ± 0.1 mm. This method breaks through the application bottleneck of the existing guided wave thickness measurement devices in variable-temperature environments, providing technical support for the safe operation of petrochemical plants.

Abstract:
To address the unstable quality of processed bamboo and wood products caused by both the performance limitations of current processing machinery and the inherent defects of bamboo and wood materials, this study focuses on key defect detection technologies within intelligent wood manufacturing, and proposes an integrated quality assessment system based on an improved YOLO (You Only Look Once)object detection algorithm. Innovatively, the system incorporates a multi-parameter defect weighting mechanism, enabling quantitative analysis of critical indicators such as defect size, characteristics, and severity. Subsequently, a wood quality grading model was constructed using fuzzy comprehensive evaluation. Experimental results demonstrate that the system effectively categorizes wood products into three grades: superior (Grade A), qualified (Grade B), and unqualified (Grade C). For the Plywood wood defect dataset, the system achieved mean average precision@0.5 (mAP@0.5) of 91.3%. Moreover, the dynamic weighting-based grading strategy showed a deviation of less than 5% compared to manual evaluation results (Euclidean distance: 0.063; Jaccard index: 0.892). This research provides an efficient and scalable quality assessment paradigm for intelligent wood manufacturing, demonstrating significant engineering application value.

Abstract:
Traditional location methods based on microphone arrays have certain limitations in locating wide-area low-frequency acoustic signals at kilometer-scale distances. To improve location accuracy , field experiments were conducted using a 32-element acoustic array to investigate the locating performance of the time delay minimum variance (TDMV) method and the beamforming (BF) method in a 5 km outdoor environment, focusing on low-frequency sound signals from the same source. Experimental results indicate that compared to the traditional BF method, the TDMV method exhibits a significant advantage in location accuracy over wide-area ranges, achieving an improvement of more than 2.1% in precision. These findings extend the effective range of sound source location and provide a feasible solution for the accurate location of low-frequency sound sources.

Abstract:
Three-dimensional combustion diagnosis based on tomography technology requires the use of flame images in multiple directions for three-dimensional reconstruction. The accuracy of lens angle calibration directly affects the qua-lity and precision of reconstruction. In order to reduce the error of angle calibration, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) lens angle calibration method based on cross calibration block is proposed. A new cross calibration block was designed. Compared with the traditional calibration block, it has more complex spatial structure characteristics, which can enhance the geometric information difference of the image during rotation, help CNN to extract angle features more accurately, and reduce the angle label error in the training set. A CNN based on the Residual Neural Network (ResNet) architecture was built for angle prediction, and CNN training was implemented based on the open-source framework PyTorch to avoid artificial feature design. Experiments were conducted to verify the application effect of the CNN lens angle calibration method based on the cross calibration block. The results show that when the traditional triangular prism calibration block is used for lens angle calibration, the angle label error is large, resulting in low accuracy of lens angle calibration; when the cross calibration block is used for lens angle calibration, the loss function converges faster during model training and the accuracy of lens angle calibration is higher. The convolutional neural network lens angle calibration method based on the cross calibration block shows higher robustness and stronger generalization ability, providing technical support for improving the accuracy of combustion image reconstruction.

LUO Guoxi, ZHANG Yuzhuo, JIA Zeng, LI Wenyan
Abstract:
Traditional strain gauges face challenges such as significant strain transfer errors and slow response time during monitoring, severely limiting the engineering effectiveness. To addresses the monitoring requirements for strain, vibration, and clamp looseness in aviation hydraulic pipelines, this paper proposed a design and manufacturing method for in-situ preparation of thin-film strain sensors on hydraulic pipelines. A finite element analysis model for strain transfer errors was established, and the structural parameters of the resistive strain grating were optimized. Multi-layer hetero-thin films, including the Ni80Cr20 strain-sensitive layer, were prepared using magnetron sputtering. Through a five-axis laser etching process, the laser incidence angle and focal position were adjusted, achieving a high-precision control over the etching depth. Testing revealed that the prepared thin-film strain sensor exhibited a drift rate (DR) of 8.4 × 10-5 / h, a temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) of 1.3 × 10-4 / ℃ in the range of -40 ~ 100 ℃, a gauge factor (GF) of 2.03 in the range of 0 ~ 500 με, and a response time of just 15 ns. Force hammer experiments confirmed the sensor's ability to detect and identify key information such as strain, vibration, and clamp tightness. This integrated manufacturing sensor holds promising applications in the field of aviation hydraulic pipeline condition monitoring.

Porous parameter inversion based on irregular sound incidence
Abstract:
Parameter inversion is an important means to obtain the material porous parameters, and the related principles and methods have been extensively investigated in recent years. The existing inversion researches are mainly based on the normal incidence acoustic model, while there is almost no investigation using irregular incidence sound model to invert porous parameters. This article studies the inversion method of porous materials under irregular sound incidence case. Here, the theoretical relationship was established between the porous parameter and irregular incidence absorption coefficient. The inversion study was conducted by using the established theoretical model, porous acoustic model and genetic algorithm, and the accuracy and astringency of inversed parameters was further analyzed. It's theoretically and numerically demonstrated that, the prediction and simulation results are in good agreement, and the inverted porous parameters by using irregular sound incidence model present high accuracy and astringency, which is expected to provide theoretical reference for porous parameter inversion analysis.

Revisiting Discussion for Inherent Characteristics of Quantization Error from Digital-to-Analogue Conversion
Lu Zuliang, Yang Yan, Zhang Zhonghua
Abstract:
To accurately achieve the desired phase angle during digital-to-analog conversion, a commonly used approach is to increase the conversion resolution. This method relies on finer amplitude-axis discretization to better approximate the original waveform. However, it comes with several disadvantages, such as high cost, slow conversion speed, and considerable power consumption. To address these limitations, this paper further explores a novel method—time-axis segmentation. A definition of quantization error is introduced, which includes both phase angle quantization error (PQE) and amplitude quantization error (AQE). Four essential conditions for the quantization process are presented. The paper also analyzes how the quantization error inherently varies with the phase angle. Simulation and experimental results are provided to validate the theoretical conclusions. The results show that the quantization errors exhibit a periodic distribution, with the error period being 1/N of the signal cycle, where N denotes the number of samples per signal cycle. Within each error period, the quantization errors are symmetrically distributed. Moreover, a series of zero-points of the phase angle quantization error is derived, which are independent of both the conversion resolution and the signal amplitude. By adjusting N to align these zero-points with the desired phase angle, new application opportunities arise. This study is expected to contribute to the advancement of phase angle standards and impedance bridge technology, and promote the use of high-speed, low-power, and cost-effective digital-to-analog converters.
