All‐Optical Phase Recovery: Diffractive Computing for Quantitative Phase Imaging [PDF]
Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) is a label‐free computational imaging technique that provides optical path length information of specimens. In modern implementations, the quantitative phase image of an object is reconstructed digitally through numerical

A direct comparison between a MEMS deformable mirror and a liquid crystal spatial light modulator in signal-based wavefront sensing [PDF]
Aberrations degrade the performance of optical systems in terms of resolution and signal-to-noise ratio. This work explores the feasibility of a signal-based wavefront sensor, which employs a search algorithm to estimate Zernike coefficients of given ...

Simultaneously improving multiple imaging parameters with scattering media [PDF]
Traditional optical imaging systems can provide high-quality imaging with complicated and expensive optical design by eliminating aberrations. With the help of optical memory effect (ME), not independently improving single imaging parameter, but simultaneously improving several imaging parameters by adding scattering media to the imaging systems was ...

Non-Hermitian Multimode Interference [PDF]
Multi-mode interference (MMI) and self-imaging are important phenomena of diffractive wave optics with major applications in optical signal processing, beam shaping and optical sensing. Such phenomena generally arise from interference of normal modes in lossless dielectric guiding structures, however the impact of spatially-inhomogeneous optical gain ...
