Relativistic Scattering in the Funnel of Cygnus X-3
The Astrophysical JournalCygnus X-3 presents significant challenges to standard accretion models. Recent polarimetric observations by X-ray Polarimetry Explorer reveal high polarization degrees in the hard state (∼23%) and unexpectedly significant polarization in the soft state (

High-efficiency RGB achromatic liquid crystal diffractive optical elements
Opto-Electronic AdvancesLiquid crystal Pacharatnam-Berry phase optical elements (PBOEs) have found promising applications in augmented reality and virtual reality because of their slim formfactor, lightweight, and high optical efficiency. However, chromatic aberration remains a

Polarization ray tracing and polarization aberration compensation in reflective, astronomical telescopes [PDF]
Optical Modeling and Performance Predictions X, 2018 Assessing and optimizing polarization performance in the context of ray-based optical design can be challenging. We describe an approach to this problem that decouples polarization effects from optical system geometry for reflective systems.

Polarization Independent Achromatic Meta-Lens Designed for the Terahertz Domain
Frontiers in Physics, 2020 In recent years, metasurface-based focusing elements have gradually become an indispensable type of terahertz lenses. However, the meta-lens often suffers from chromatic aberration due to the intrinsic dispersion of each element, especially in the ...

Research of the polarization aberration on Smith prism
Physics Procedia, 2011 AbstractUsing the law of refraction and reflection of vector form to trace the light direction of propagation in the Smith prism. Be based on it, get the reflection phase shifter δs and δp on every planes, consequently obtain virtue matrix using Jones vector. The distribution of the polarization state of emergent light wave from Smith prism is analyzed

Polarization aberrations of electrically tunable liquid crystal mirrors
Optics Express, 2020 Curved mirrors are able to fold optical paths and play important roles in compact optical systems in general. In this paper, we investigate the polarization aberrations of electrically tunable liquid crystal (LC) mirrors with two kinds of configurations (flat and curved ones). The LC mirrors exhibit spatially-continuous tunable wavefronts. The detailed

, 2018 We observe that focusing a femtosecond laser beam simultaneously chirped in time and space domains in glass can efficiently suppress the optical aberration caused by the refractive index mismatch at the interface of air and the glass sample.

Aberration-free calibration for 3D single molecule localization microscopy
, 2017 We propose a straightforward sample-based technique to calibrate the axial detection in 3D single molecule localization microscopy (SMLM). Using microspheres coated with fluorescent molecules, the calibration curves of PSF-shaping- or intensity-based ...
