In the far-ultraviolet (UV) region, optical materials are dispersive and absorbing. The previous successful design method utilized in the visible band should be re-examined. We report on the design and fabrication of a far-UV reflective broadband filter based on dielectric materials lanthanum fluoride (LaF3) and magnesium fluoride (MgF2). Extended bandwidth technology is utilized in designing this filter. The obtained filter has a high reflectance in the working wavelength range of 140–180 nm, meanwhile, with good suppression in shorter and longer wavelength regions. In 2016, this filter was employed in a wide-angle aurora imager (WAAI) installed in the Feng Yun III satellite that will be launched in China.

The ESA “Ultraviolet Bright Star Spectrophotometric Catalogue” (Jamar et al. 1976) and the “Catalogue of 0.2 A Resolution Far-ultraviolet Stellar Spectra Measured with Copernicus” (Snow and Jenkins 1976) have been used to try to separate, by means of simple diagrams, O-type stars belonging to different luminosity classes and having different temperatures. The ESA catalogue gives absolute fluxes for 43 O-type stars, mostly reddened, with a spectral resolution of 35–40 A, depending on the channel, in the wavelength range 1350–2550 A. The Copernicus catalogue gives spectra between 1000 and 1450 A for 17 O-type stars, with low reddening, at 0.2 A resolution.

Optical constants of olivine – (Mg, Fe)2SiO4 and magnetite – Fe3O4 are presented for the wavelength range from near infrared to far ultraviolet. A feature occurs in the optical constants of olivine at about 1460 Å, but no structure that could give rise to a 2200 Å interstellar feature is found. The most peculiar characteristic of the magnetite results is the large change of optical properties with temperature in the infrared.

AbstractFar ultraviolet (FUV) fluxes have been used for determining the effective temperatures of a number of DA white dwarfs hotter than 20,000 K. The spectra were obtained with the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE). The analysis consisted of comparing the observed FUV fluxes with model fluxes scaled to the V-band flux. After suitable corrections were performed for the time-dependent sensitivity degradation of the IUE, it was found that the available flux calibrations for the IUE were insufficiently accurate for precise temperature determinations. Accordingly, we used seven white dwarfs for which accurate, independent temperature determinations have been made from line profile analyses to improve the accuracy of the IUE flux calibration. The correction to the original calibration was as great as 20% in individual 5-Å wavelength bins, while the average over the IUE wavelength range was 5%. We present both our IUE flux correction and the temperatures obtained for the hot white dwarfs.

An ultrabroadband, omnidirectional, and polarization-insensitive absorber based on cascaded nanorod arrays (CNAs) is numerically demonstrated, and an average absorptivity of 98.2% with a relative absorption bandwidth (RAB) of 149.8% can be achieved in the 0.38–2.65 μm wavelength range. The proposed CNA-based absorber requires only several pairs of multilayers to achieve excellent absorption performance. More significantly, the physical mechanism for this intriguing ultrabroadband absorption results from the synergistic effect of localized surface plasmon (LSP) and plasmonic resonant cavity (PRC) modes, which is fundamentally different from the tapered metal/dielectric multilayer-based absorbers associated with the slow-light mode. We investigated the absorption properties of the CNA-based metasurface by using the impedance theory, which indicates that the impedance of the structure matches well with the impedance of the free space from the visible to near-infrared wavelength range. In addition, the absorption properties of the CNA-based metasurface are robust to the variation of the structural parameters and the metal/dielectric materials, and ultrabroadband absorption performance can be maintained within 0–60° for both TM and TE modes.
