Polarisation optics for biomedical and clinical applications: a review [PDF]

open access: yesLight: Science & Applications, 2021
Many polarisation techniques have been harnessed for decades in biological and clinical research, each based upon measurement of the vectorial properties of light or the vectorial transformations imposed on light by objects.

Neural nano-optics for high-quality thin lens imaging [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Nano-optic imagers that modulate light at sub-wavelength scales could enable new applications in diverse domains ranging from robotics to medicine. Although metasurface optics offer a path to such ultra-small imagers, existing methods have achieved image

Nonlocal flat optics [PDF]

open access: yesNature Photonics, 2022
Nonlocal effects—in which the optical response of a system at a given spatial point depends on the field in the surrounding space—are reviewed in the context of metasurfaces and flat optics.

The language of Einstein spoken by optical instruments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Einstein had to learn the mathematics of Lorentz transformations in order to complete his covariant formulation of Maxwell's equations. The mathematics of Lorentz transformations, called the Lorentz group, continues playing its important role in optical ...

MICADO: the E-ELT adaptive optics imaging camera [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation, 2010
MICADO is the adaptive optics imaging camera for the E-ELT. It has been designed and optimised to be mounted to the LGS-MCAO system MAORY, and will provide diffraction limited imaging over a wide (~1 arcmin) field of view.

Quantum optics with bosons and fermions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Atom optics, a field which takes much inspiration from traditional optics, has advanced to the point that some of the fundamental experiments of quantum optics, involving photon correlations, have found atomic analogs.

Polarization singularities from unfolding an optical vortex through a birefringent crystal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Optical vortices (nodal lines and phase singularities) are the generic singularities of scalar optics but are unstable in vector optics. We investigate experimentally and theoretically the unfolding of a uniformly polarized optical vortex beam on ...

Inverse design enables large-scale high-performance meta-optics reshaping virtual reality [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Meta-optics has achieved major breakthroughs in the past decade; however, conventional forward design faces challenges as functionality complexity and device size scale up.

Transformation Optics and the Geometry of Light [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Metamaterials are beginning to transform optics and microwave technology thanks to their versatile properties that, in many cases, can be tailored according to practical needs and desires.
