A new kind of CMOS image sensor test method, which is different from test standards EMVA1288 and ESCC 25000, is proposed in this paper based on photo transfer theory by using the rough adaptive genetic algorithm (RAGA). This test method can measure both system gain and dark signal together by utilizing dark field grey value only in dark field. In this way the complexity of test is reduced, and high and low temperature tests and dynamic burn-in test become easy to be carried out. Without light field exposure, the stability and reliability of dark signal testing are improved in certain extent. The experiment result shows that, this new test method is available and dependable. It reduces the complexity of test equipment and environment, simplifies test flow, shortens test duration, and decreases test cost.
Based on the situation that imported low quality level of the semiconductor pump lasers are selected for most China space applications ,via analyzing the basic characters and failure mechanisms, and researching on relative international standards, this paper provides a quality assurance test items and procedures that applies to the imported low quality level semiconductor pump lasers, and introduces techniques and conditions for each tests. It is proved by an actual case that the quality assurance methods this paper provided are effective and feasible, and can be adopted by all the quality assurance for the imported low quality level pump lasers for China space application in the future.

A cost-effective carrier-suppressed return-to-zero (CSRZ) code generation scheme is proposed by employing a directly modulated laser (DML) module operated at 1.5 μm wavelength. Furthermore, the performance of CSRZ code signal in free-space optical (FSO) link transmission is studied by simulation. It is found from the results that the atmospheric turbulence can deteriorate the transmission performance. However, due to have lower average transmit power and higher spectrum efficient, CSRZ code signal can obtain better amplitude suppression ratio compared to the Non-return-to-zero (NRZ) code.
In this paper, the influence of packaging on the high speed performance of photodetector (PD) is systematically and comprehensively studied. Combined with the equivalent circuit, the RF attenuation induced by packaging in PD module is investigated in detail. The microwave transmission performance of the PD module has been analyzed and optimized in three regions: the RF substrate, the connection between the coaxial connector and the substrate, and the parasitic parameters introduced by packaging. With the optimized scheme, a packaged PD module with a 3dB bandwidth of 23GHz is fabricated and its bandwidth has no degradation compared to the photodiode chip. The results indicate that the performance of the PD module can be compensated by optimizing the packaging design and the optimized scheme can be used for PD module which has a higher response speed.
