Band-specific phase engineering for curving and focusing light in waveguide arrays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Band specific design of curved light caustics and focusing in optical waveguide arrays is introduced. Going beyond the discrete, tight-binding model, which we examined recently, we show how the exact band structure and the associated diffraction ...

Minimum-Entropy Autofocusing Based on Re-PSO for Ionospheric Scintillation Mitigation in P-Band SAR Imaging

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
The spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system working at P-band, is vulnerable to the ionospheric effect. The ionospheric scintillation will introduce random phase fluctuations into the SAR signal and deteriorate the imaging performance.

Design and control of laser micromachining workstation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The production process of miniature devices and microsystems requires the utilization of non-conventional micromachining techniques. In the past few decades laser micromachining has became micro-manufacturing technique of choice for many industrial and ...

Accelerating and abruptly-autofocusing beam waves in the Fresnel zone of antenna arrays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We introduce the concept of spatially accelerating (curved) beam waves in the Fresnel region of properly designed antenna arrays. These are transversely localized EM waves that propagate in free space in a diffraction-resisting manner, while at the same ...

Graphics processing unit (GPU) aided wavefront-based autofocusing in microscopy

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2018
Based on the wavefront sensing and propagation, the wavefront-based autofocus approach is proposed for potentially adopted in rapid autofocusing since it can precisely locate the focal plane but only requiring much fewer multi-focal image captures ...

Autofocusing Algorithm for Pixel-Super-Resolved Lensfree On-Chip Microscopy

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2021
In recent years, lensfree on-chip microscopy has developed into a promising and powerful computational optical microscopy technique that allows for wide-field, high-throughput microscopic imaging without using any lenses.

Abruptly autofocusing vortex beams

open access: yesOptics Express, 2012
We generate abruptly autofocusing beams that produce vortices at the focus. We give explicit equations for the phase-only Fourier masks that generate these beams including explanations for controlling the focal distance and numerical aperture. We show experimental results for the focal distance, the vortex pattern and show that the diameter of the ...

A New Autofocusing Method Based on Brightness and Contrast for Color Cameras

open access: yesAdvances in Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2016
The autofocusing is one of the most important features of imaging devices. This feature directly affects the quality of the image taken by the imaging device. Currently, many studies are being performed to improve the feature of autofocusing.

Laguerre-Gaussian Beams with an Increased Dark Area and Autofocusing

open access: yesPhotonics, 2022
We introduce and investigate a novel Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beam, different from the conventional modal LG beams, which conserve the transverse intensity structure (up to scale) on propagation.

Lightweight smart autofocusing eyeglasses

open access: yesMOEMS and Miniaturized Systems XVII, 2018
More than 100 million people in the United States of America alone suffer from age-related presbyopia caused by a loss of focal accommodation of the eye crystalline lens as the lens stiffens with age. The resulting accommodative error or lag produces blurred images of objects placed at different distances.
