Interference-assisted kaleidoscopic meta-plexer for arbitrary spin-wavefront manipulation

open access: yesLight: Science & Applications, 2019
Achieving simultaneous polarization and wavefront control, especially circular polarization with the auxiliary degree of freedom of light and spin angular momentum, is of fundamental importance in many optical applications.

Rhythmic Calcium Events in the Lamina Propria Network of the Urinary Bladder of Rat Pups

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2017
The lamina propria contains a dense network of cells, including interstitial cells (ICs), that may play a role in bladder function by modulating communication between urothelium, nerve fibers and smooth muscle or acting as pacemakers.

Measurement of the radius of curvature of a spherical surface based on the transport-of-intensity equation

open access: yesКомпьютерная оптика, 2022
The transport-of-intensity equation provides a new non-interferometric and non-iterative access to quantitative information about the phase of a light wave by measuring intensity distributions. This equation can be used to implement a simple and accurate

Ground-layer wavefront reconstruction from multiple natural guide stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Observational tests of ground layer wavefront recovery have been made in open loop using a constellation of four natural guide stars at the 1.55 m Kuiper telescope in Arizona.

The Deformable Mirror Demonstration Mission (DeMi) CubeSat: optomechanical design validation and laboratory calibration

open access: yes, 2018
Coronagraphs on future space telescopes will require precise wavefront correction to detect Earth-like exoplanets near their host stars. High-actuator count microelectromechanical system (MEMS) deformable mirrors provide wavefront control with low size ...

Possible Application of Wavefront Coding to the LSST [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Wavefront Coding has been applied as a means to increase the effective depth of focus of optical systems. In this note I discuss the potential for this technique to increase the depth of focus of the LSST and the resulting advantages for the construction

Demonstrating backflow in classical two beams’ interference

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2022
The well-known interference pattern of bright and dark fringes was first observed for light beams back in 1801 by Thomas Young. The maximum visibility fringes occur when the irradiance of the two beams is equal, and as the ratio of the beam intensities ...

Compressed wavefront sensing [PDF]

open access: yesOptics Letters, 2014
We report on an algorithm for fast wavefront sensing that incorporates sparse representation for the first time in practice. The partial derivatives of optical wavefronts were sampled sparsely with a Shack-Hartman wavefront sensor (SHWFS) by randomly subsampling the original SHWFS data to as little as 5%.

Deep Learning-Based Prediction Algorithm on Atmospheric Turbulence-Induced Wavefront for Adaptive Optics

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2022
Correction performance of an adaptive optics (AO) system is severely limited by its system latency under high temporal frequency distortions. Wavefront prediction methods has been proven to be an effective way to compensate system delay.

The coronagraphic Modal Wavefront Sensor: a hybrid focal-plane sensor for the high-contrast imaging of circumstellar environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The raw coronagraphic performance of current high-contrast imaging instruments is limited by the presence of a quasi-static speckle (QSS) background, resulting from instrumental non-common path errors (NCPEs).
