For wireless electric vehicle charging, the relative position of the primary and secondary coils has significant impacts on the transferred power, efficiency and leakage magnetic flux. In this paper, a magnetic positioning method using simultaneous power and data transmission (SWPDT) is proposed for power coil alignment. Four signal coils are installed on the primary coil to detect the secondary coil position. By measuring the positioning signal amplitudes from the four signal coils, the power coil relative position can be obtained. Moreover, all the communication needed in the positioning process can be satisfied well by SWPDT technology, and no extra radio frequency (RF) communication hardware is needed. The proposed positioning method can work properly both in power transfer online condition and in power transfer offline condition. Thus, a highly integrated wireless charging system is achieved, which features simultaneous power transfer, data transmission and position detection. A positioning experimental setup is built to verify the proposed method. The experimental results demonstrate that the positioning resolution can be maintained no lower than 1 cm in a 1060 mm × 900 mm elliptical region for a pair of 510 mm × 410 mm rectangular power coils. The three-dimensional positioning accuracy achieves up to 1 cm.

A general method is presented for determining and correcting nonlinear position detector responses in single particle tracking as used in three-dimensional scanning probe microscopy based on optical tweezers. The method uses locally calculated mean square displacements of a Brownian particle to detect spatial changes in the sensitivity of the detector. The method is applied to an optical tweezers setup, where the position fluctuations of a microsphere within the optical trap are measured by an interferometric detection scheme with nanometer precision and microsecond temporal resolution. Detector sensitivity profiles were measured at arbitrary positions in solution with a resolution of approximately 6 nm and 20 nm in the lateral and axial directions, respectively. Local detector sensitivities are used to reconstruct the real positions of the particle from the measured position signals.

During the last decade, new unusual physical phenomena have been discovered in studying the optics of dielectric mesoscale particles of an arbitrary three-dimensional shape with the Mie size parameter near 10 (q~10). The paper provides a brief overview of these phenomena from optics to terahertz, plasmonic and acoustic ranges. The different particle configurations (isolated, regular or Janus) are discussed, and the possible applications of such mesoscale structures are briefly reviewed herein in relation to the field enhancement, nanoparticle manipulation and super-resolution imaging. The number of interesting applications indicates the appearance of a new promising scientific direction in optics, terahertz and acoustic ranges, and plasmonics. This paper presents the authors’ approach to these problems.
