In the field of optical communication, laser and its modulation bandwidth and modulation rate are very important for optical wireless communication. There are two main modulation modes for semiconductor laser signal: internal modulation and external modulation. These two modulation technologies have their own characteristics and are suitable for different fields of optical fiber communication. Internal modulation laser, also known as direct modulation laser, has become a cost-effective light source for the Fifth Generation Mobile Communication Technology (5G) fronthaul and data center because of its high-speed transmission and low cost. There is no additional Chirp of light source in external modulation laser, so the Composite Second Beat (CSB) distortion caused by fiber dispersion can be effectively overcomed. On the basis of reviewing the development history of communication laser and its modulation technology, this paper introduces the work and main progress made by Xi’an University of Technology in this field. This paper discusses the internal and external factors of nonlinear distortion of semiconductor laser, simulates the effects of various parameters of response characteristics, linearization compensation method and power control system on the output light source of light emitting device, and analyzes the influence of temperature fluctuation on the output power of laser and modulation device. Based on the basic theory of refractive index ellipsoid and numerical analysis, the variation trend of emitted light intensity with temperature is discussed under the longitudinal and transverse modulation, respectively. The results show that the variation trend of outgoing light intensity with temperature under longitudinal modulation is only related to the refractive index of Lithium Niobate (LN) crystal. Under transverse modulation, the variation trend of outgoing light intensity with temperature is affected not only by the refractive index of the crystal, but also by the crystal size and its expansion coefficient. Therefore, the special size crystal can be used to improve the temperature stability of the electro-optic modulator.

【Objective】Deformable Mirror(DM) is a key device in adaptive optics system for wavefront correction, and its performance directly determines the wavefront correction capability of the system. By studying DM and their control algorithm, the wavefront correction capability of adaptive optics system can be continuously improved. On one hand, the accuracy and response speed of DM can be enhanced to better correct various complex wavefront distortions. On the other hand, the control algorithm can be improved to increase the efficiency and accuracy of the correction. These studies will directly affect the imaging quality and performance of adaptive optics system. Therefore, investigating the DM and their control algorithm is of great significance for improving the wavefront correction capability, expanding application fields, and enhancing imaging quality and performance of adaptive optics system.【Methods】The article aims to summarize the research progress on DM and their control algorithm both domestically and internationally, as well as analyze the correction accuracy of different control algorithm for wavefront distortion, establishing the groundwork for the advancement of adaptive optics. Firstly, several typical DMs are used as examples to model the DM and provide detailed introductions to the structures and working principles of separate actuator DM, splicer DM, thin film DM, dual piezoelectric DM, Micro Electromechanical System (MEMS) DM and voice coil DM.

This will help improve imaging quality and drive the development of adaptive optics technology.

【Objective】Coherent optical communication is a high-speed, high-quality, and highly secure communication method, and coherent detection plays an extremely important role in coherent optical communication. High sensitivity coherent detection systems can significantly increase the distance of coherent optical communication. By studying the factors that affect the sensitivity of coherent detection, targeted corrections can be made to improve the detection sensitivity.【Methods】This paper first briefly describes the principle of the coherence detection, and summarizes the research progress in this field at home and abroad. Then the paper analyzes the influence of thermal noise, shot noise, wavefront distortion, polarization loss, spot size deviation, optical axis deflection, coupling efficiency, detector performance, preamplifier and other aspects on coherence detection sensitivity of wireless optical coherence detection system.【Results】The results show that the influence of the thermal noise and shot noise of the system on the detection sensitivity can be minimized by controlling the local oscillator power. The wavefront distortion of signal light can be suppressed by adding an adaptive correction system. The polarization control compensation device can be used to compensate the polarization mismatch between signal light and local oscillator light. The deviation of spot size and optical axis deviation requires improving the processing level of hardware to reduce this error. The use of new detectors can improve the performance of detectors to a certain extent. The pre-amplifier can amplify weak signal light, which is crucial for improving detection sensitivity.【Conclusion】This article analyzes the factors that affect the sensitivity of wireless optical coherent detection, and summarizes the methods used by domestic and foreign scholars to improve detection sensitivity in recent years. It provides theoretical reference for improving the sensitivity of detection systems in practice, which has important significance for improving the performance of coherent optical communication systems.
