Self-consistent method for calculation of reflection coefficients of the interface with the dielectric tensor’s rotation

We give an interface between two same media whose orientation of optical axis, however, is rotated, and describe a method in detail to show how to calculate reflectance coefficient in this interface. We also give the theoretical simulation of the reflectance coefficient and discuss the effect of the rotation angle and the direction of electron vector on the reflectance coefficient. For the un-polarized lights the theoretical calculated results show that the reflectance coefficients (r _x1 and r _y1) are very small when the rotated angle is small, and they arrive at the maximum value as the rotation angle is equal to a decided value. For the polarized light, when the rotation angle is small, the reflectance coefficients (r _x1 and r _y1) are also small. Only when the rotation angle increases to a certain extent, they can reach the maximum values and be strongly affected by the direction of electronic vector. However, this effect on the reflectance coefficient in the direction of the maximum refraction is different from that in the direction of minimum refraction.     

Determination of the Asymmetry Parameter and Scattering Coefficient of Turbid Media from Spatially Resolved Reflectance Measurements

We present a technique for determining the asymmetry parameter and scattering coefficient of turbid media from spatially resolved reflectance measurements. This technique will contribute to the development of medical applications in which it is necessary to predict the distribution and propagation of light in tissue. Based on Monte Carlo simulations, we derived correlations which relate the reduced scattering coefficient and the asymmetry parameter to the relative reflectance curve. Initial estimates of the optical properties are obtained from these correlations. Final values are obtained by adjusting the optical parameters and repeating the Monte Carlo simulations until the simulated reflectance pattern matches the measured reflectance pattern. Preliminary experimental results indicate that this technique can be used to determine the asymmetry parameter to within 10% and the reduced scattering coefficient to within 5%.

Method for measuring the diffusion coefficient of homogeneous and layered media

A method for measuring the diffusion coefficient of homogeneous and layered media, based on multidistance measurements of time-resolved reflectance, is proposed. The diffusion coefficient is retrieved from the logarithm between two measurements of reflectance at two different distances. The proposed procedure is simpler than others usually employed and also provides a reliable criterion for retrieval of information on the layered structure of a diffusive medium.     

Broad Stopband Characteristic of Dielectric Chiral Photonic Crystals

In this paper, a novel chiral photonic crystal structure is presented. The formula of reflection coefficient of multi-layer chiral media is applied to dielectric-chiral photonic crystal structure, which is composed of thin chiral layers sandwiched by conventional media. To compare with previous literature, we consider the dielectric structure with alternate glass and GaAs layers. The power reflectance as a function of wavelength for this photonic crystal structure has been calculated. The results are in good agreement with that of Reference. However, our method is simpler. From these graphs, it is found that 100% reflectance is only in finite wavelength ranges, and reflection bandwidth is also small for conventional photonic crystal structure. For chiral photonic crystal, the results show that the chiral photonic band gap (PBG) structure gives nearly 100% reflections in the near-infrared region in addition to some parts of the visible region of the wavelengths. Therefore, it can be used as a broadband reflector and filter.     

Identification of radiative properties of reticulated ceramic porous inert media using ray tracing technique

The radiative properties of reticulated porous inert media are computationally identified using the real three-dimensional structural data of porous media. The computational grids data are reconstructed from three-dimensional computer tomography scans and magnetic resonance image scans of different reticulated porous media. A ray tracing algorithm is used to track the rays inside the grid structure. Statistically large numbers of rays are traced for their path length and incident angle, which are used to find the probability based equivalent extinction coefficient and scattering phase function. The equivalent extinction coefficients are found for porous media with different porosities and pore densities. The dependency of specular and diffuse scattering phase functions on the porous structure and surface reflectance are also studied.     

动态应力场作用下线性啁啾光栅光谱特性研究

目前柔性结构损伤检测需多个传感器,且需要探测器具有极高的采集频率。光纤光栅具有动态响应快、易实现分布式测量等特点,为解决上述问题提供了有效的途径,提出采用线性啁啾光栅(LCFBG)实现动态应力场探测。首先,用传输矩阵理论建立了LCFBG反射光谱应变传感模型,用衰减正弦函数模拟沿LCFBG分布的动态应力场。通过仿真实验,详细研究了LCFBG反射光谱对不同振幅、不同衰减系数与不同传播速度动态应力场的响应特性。实验结果表明,LCFBG反射光谱的反射率、波长变化与光谱形状均与动态应力场上述参数有关,但是LCFBG反射光谱对动态应力场不同参数的响应规律不同。在一定范围内,LCFBG反射光谱的最大反射率随动态应力场幅值与速度的增大而增大,最终趋于一稳定值,但其随阻尼系数增大而减小。最后,研制了以LCFBG为敏感元件的传感器,并构建了动态应力场实验平台,实验结果与仿真实验数据基本一致。提供了一种通过实时采集LCFBG全光谱信息探测动态应力场的新方法。     

Method to quantitate absorption coefficients from single fiber reflectance spectra without knowledge of the scattering properties

This study presents a methodology to accurately extract the absorption coefficient from single fiber reflectance spectra measured in turbid media without a priori knowledge of either the reduced scattering coefficient or the phase function. This novel approach accounts for the interrelated effects these properties have on the photon path length, yielding estimates of an absorption coefficient on average within <7.5% of true values over a wide range of biologically relevant optical properties.     

Influence of the third-order parameter on diffuse reflectance at small source-detector separations

Spatially resolved reflectance close to source has received a great deal of attention recently. This research is considered to develop a new noninvasive technique for measuring the optical properties of biological media. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we investigated the influence of third-order parameter 5 on diffuse reflectance and found that the reflectance decreased with an increase of delta at a short source-detector separation of approximately 0.7-2 transport mean free paths. We show that the effects of two parameters, y and second-order parameter delta, on the reflectance are contrary. As a result the influence of the second-order parameter y on the reflectance is irregular when the condition delta delta相似文献   

Reflectance Measurement of Lossy Metal Meshes in the Millimeter-Wave Range

The method of power reflectance measurement of small lossy metal meshes is suggested by evaluating the measured reflection coefficient in the vicinity of a resonance mode of quasi-optical resonator. The resonator is described by the equivalent circuit that includes coupling ohmic losses of the mesh. The multi-points reconstructing algorithm is suggested to restore power reflectance. This particular technique is suitable for reflectance measurements of lossy metal meshes and wire grids having overall small dimensions which are not relevant when employing standard free space techniques. Its validity is illustrated by reflectance measurements in W-band.     

Accurate calculation of reflectance spectra for thick one-dimensional inhomogeneous optical structures and media: stable propagation matrix method

Numerical instability is usually observed when the propagation matrix method is used to calculate the reflectance and transmittance spectra for the thick one-dimensional inhomogeneous optical structures and media. To remove this numerical instability we applied two procedures, the normalization and the singular-value decomposition, for the propagation matrix and the matrix involved in calculating the matrix of reflection coefficients, respectively. Examples of a cholesteric liquid crystal and a helical structure of ferroelectric liquid crystals with a twist defect show that the modified propagation matrix method is able to accurately calculate the reflectance spectra for thick structures.     

Optical path-length matrix method for estimating skin spectrum

In this article, we propose a new method??the optical path-length matrix method (OPLM)??as a faster alternative to the Monte Carlo for multi-layered media (MCML), which is often used to simulate the skin spectrum. Theoretically, peripheral oxygen saturation can be estimated by iterating MCML, but it is not a realistic strategy because it requires huge computation time. The optical path-length matrix is obtained as the probabilistic density histograms of the optical path length in skin using MCML, and once the matrix is obtained, skin spectral reflectance can be calculated by accumulating all combinations of elements in the matrix and by setting an absorption coefficient based on the Beer-Lambert law. The computational time of OPLM was approximately 26,000 times faster than that of MCML.     

Influence of the phase function on determination of the optical properties of biological tissue by spatially resolved reflectance

Spatially resolved reflectance measurements are widely used for determination of the optical properties of biological media. However, the influence of the phase function on these measurements has not been quantified. We show that errors in the derived reduced scattering and absorption coefficients are as great as 100% for both absolute and relative spatially resolved reflectance measurements if a standard solution of the diffusion equation is used in the analysis. In addition, we investigated nonlinear regressions, using Monte Carlo simulations and an additional fitting parameter that characterizes the phase function, and found that the errors in the obtained optical coefficients were 相似文献

Temporal reflectance from a light pulse irradiated medium embedded with highly scattering cores

This paper presents a new approach to utilize ultrashort pulsed laser for optical diagnostics with numerical simulations. The method is based on the use of ultrafast pulses with a pulsewidth selected according to the probed medium's radiative property and/or size. Our previous work in nonhomogeneous media has shown that the resulting time-resolved reflectance signal will have a unique characteristic: it will show a direct correlation of ballistic photon travel time and interface location, which is in between different layers or nonhomogeneous regions. The premise is based on utilizing the medium's structural information carried by the ballistic and snake photons without being masked by the diffuse photons. In this study, the space-time correlation is further explored in the case of minimally scattered photons from a large scattering coefficient core region embedded within a less-scattering medium. Time-resolved reflectance signals of the single scattering core and multiple scattering cores within a three-dimensional medium demonstrate the concept and illustrate the additional effect due to the scattered photons from the core region. A unique temporal signal profile's correlation at various detector positions with respect to the scattering core is explained in detail. The result has important implications. This approach will lead to a much simpler and more precise determination of the probed medium's composition or structure. Due to the large computational requirement to obtain the physical details of the light pulse propagation inside highly scattering multi-dimensional media, the reverse Monte-Carlo method is used. The potential applications of the method include non-destructive diagnostics, optical imaging, and remote sensing of underwater objects.     

Resolving the wave vector and the refractive index from the coefficient of reflectance

We resolve the existing controversy concerning the selection of the sign of the normal-to-the-interface component of the wave vector k(z) of an electromagnetic wave in an active (gain) medium. Our method exploits the fact that no ambiguity exists in the case of a film of the active medium, since its coefficient of reflectance is invariant under the inversion of the sign of k(z). Then we show that the limit of the infinite film thickness determines a unique and physically consistent choice of the wave vector and the refractive index. Important practical implications of the theory are identified and discussed.

Single layer homogeneous model for surface roughness by polarized light scattering

In this paper a homogeneous single layer model for surface roughness by polarized light has been developed. It has been shown that the reflectance change in non-absorbing layer is directly proportional to the refractive index of the ambient and substrate media for s polarization but inversely proportional to the p polarization and it is directly proportional to the square of the thickness of the layer for both the polarization. In an absorbing layer, it has been shown that the thickness of the layer is equal to the twice of surface roughness of the single layer identical system for s polarization but it is ratio of twice of surface roughness to the square of refractive index of thin film for p polarization. The extinction coefficient of the layer is directly proportional to the thickness of that layer for both the polarization. The consequence of the scattered light on the specular reflectance and transmittance for oblique incidence shows that there is reduction in reflectance (in both non-absorbing and absorbing cases) and transmittance (in the absorbing case for p polarization only), due to roughness on the surface under the Drude effective-medium approximation. Thus such an absorbing layer provides a valid model for the effect of scatter on the transmittance for p polarization only.     

水体背景对湿地水生植物冠层光谱影响研究

水生植被是湿地生态系统的核心,也是影响湿地生态系统功能的最主要因素。近年来,卫星遥感技术在湿地植被资源调查、分类和保护等领域中已得到广泛的应用。由于水生植被独特的生长环境,其冠层光谱会受到水体背景要素包括大气—水界面、水中浮游生物以及泥沙含量、透明度、水体深度、底质和其他光学活性成分的影响,因此遥感技术应用于湿地水生植被冠层光谱研究时,需考虑到水生植被不同于陆生植被的生长环境,这一点在以往的相关研究中并没有得到应有的重视。以典型的挺水植物鸢尾(Iris tectorum Maxim)为研究对象,模拟湿地水生植被的生长环境,使用地物光谱仪测定了鸢尾植被冠层在不同水深梯度背景下的光谱反射率(400~2 400 nm)。实验结果表明,背景水深与鸢尾冠层反射率之间存在着显著的负相关性,其中可见光波段绝对相关系数在0.9以上,近红外波段的绝对相关系数在0.8以上。在可见光和近红外波段,随着背景水深的增加,鸢尾冠层反射率下降均比较明显。最后分别依据可见光和近红外区域相关性最高的波段(505,717,1 075和2 383 nm)建立了背景水深与冠层反射率之间的线性方程,并得出了相关参数。
