Deformable Membrane Mirror for Wavefront Correction

open access: yesDefence Science Journal, 2009
Deformable or adaptive mirrors are used in modern adaptive optics systems for direct correction of the aberrations in the light wavefront. Conventional deformable mirrors used for this purpose are expensive electromechanical devices. Deformable membrane mirror fabricated using microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology is a low cost, compact ...

Bio‐inspired nanophotonics: Structural color, chirality, and resonance metasurfaces

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
A butterfly‐wing‐inspired anisotropic plasmonic flatband resonant metasurface. Insets, photo of the butterfly, Sasakia charonda, and the SEM image of its wing scale (above); the SEM image of the metasurface (below). Abstract The dazzling colors of butterfly wings and hummingbird feathers are not painted with pigments, but crafted by nature's invisible ...

Advances in Position‐Momentum Entanglement: A Versatile Tool for Quantum Technologies

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Position–momentum entanglement constitutes a high‐dimensional continuous‐variable resource in quantum optics. Recent advances in its generation, characterization, and control are reviewed, with emphasis on spontaneous parametric down‐conversion and modern measurement techniques.

Optical Skyrmions with Tunable or Reconfigurable Topology Using Spin‐Decoupled Metaoptics

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
The work introduces advanced optical elements capable of generating and dynamically reconfiguring complex light patterns known as optical skyrmions. By precisely shaping light polarization at the nanoscale, a single engineered metasurface can generate and manipulate robust and tunable polarization textures in an efficient and scalable way.

Precise 3D Tracking of Highly Non‐Planar Eukaryotic Flagellar Beating Patterns Using Digital Holographic Microscopy

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
The 3D beating dynamics of eukaryotic flagella drive motility, sensory functions, and resource acquisition, yet highly non‐planar beating patterns remain poorly characterized. Based on Digital Holographic Microscopy, holoV3C enables label‐free 3D reconstruction of such complex dynamics with 53 nm axial resolution, demonstrated on mouse sperm and ...

Focal plane wavefront sensor achromatization : The multireference self-coherent camera

open access: yes, 2016
High contrast imaging and spectroscopy provide unique constraints for exoplanet formation models as well as for planetary atmosphere models. But this can be challenging because of the planet-to-star small angular separation and high flux ratio. Recently,

Shaped electrodes for adaptive X‐ray optics

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
For adaptive X‐ray optics on high‐performance beamline optical systems, we describe an approach to mirror figure and slope control using patterned, shaped electrodes to control the local curvature on a lithium niobate substrate from a single applied voltage. Longitudinally continuous electrode patterns achieve target shapes without discontinuities, and
