As a key factor in a testing system, sensor nonlinearity has always been the study focus in the field of engineering and techniques. In order to accurately reflect the practical characteristics of a fiber-optic micro-bend sensor, Levenberg-Marguardt (LM) algorithm is used to optimize the correction of the weight values of standard back propagation neural network (BPNN). The learning process of improved BPNN based on LM algorithm (LM-BPNN) is also illustrated mathematically, and LM-BPNN is applied in fitting the input and output characteristic curve of a fiber-optic micro-bend sensor. The simulation results show that LM-BPNN is superior both in its convergence rate and fitting precision over standard BPNN.

Optical splitter modules have been prepared based on 1x8 single mode silica planar waveguide optical splitter chips with 250 µm spacing and v-groove fiber arrays for applications in fiber optic communications. We report the technology of precise optical coupling and packaging of the splitter modules and the measurements of the insertion loss (< 11 dB),  uniformity (< 0.80 dB) and polarization dependence loss (PLD < 0.10 dB) as well as the lateral profile and the image of the input and output lights for the wavelengths of 1310 nm and 1550 nm. The main characteristics of the prepared splitter modules are about the same for the commercial available products. The prepared modules have been tested for operation in the conditions of wide temperature range (5–80°C) and humidity range (50–98%) and no changes in the main characteristics were observed.

Some of the most important applications of STEM depend on the variety of imaging and diffraction made possible by the versatility of the detector system and the serial nature, of the image acquisition. A special detector system, previously described, has been added to our STEM instrument to allow us to take full advantage of this versatility. In this, the diffraction pattern in the detector plane may be formed on either of two phosphor screens, one with P47 (very fast) phosphor and the other with P20 (high efficiency) phosphor. The light from the phosphor is conveyed through a fiber-optic rod to an image intensifier and TV system and may be photographed, recorded on videotape, or stored digitally on a frame store. The P47 screen has a hole through it to allow electrons to enter a Gatan EELS spectrometer. Recently a modified SEM detector has been added so that high resolution (10Å) imaging with secondary electrons may be used in conjunction with other modes.
