Combined depth- and time-resolved autofluorescence spectroscopy of epithelial tissue

A time-resolved confocal fluorescence spectroscopy system is built to measure the fine structure and localized biochemistry of epithelial tissue. It is found that the autofluorescence excited at 405 nm is sensitive to the cellular metabolism and can be used to sense the metabolic status of epithelial tissue. The decay of autofluorescence excited at 405 nm can be accurately fitted with a dual-exponential function consisting of short lifetime (0.4-0.6 ns) and long lifetime (3-4 ns) components. The ratio of the amplitudes of the two components provides information on the fine structure of epithelial tissue. We demonstrate that the combined depth- and time-resolved measurements with single excitation can potentially provide accurate information for the diagnosis of tissue pathology.     

Particle swarm optimization and its application to the design of diffraction grating filters

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is an evolutionary, easy-to-implement technique to design optical diffraction gratings. Design of reflection and transmission guided-mode resonance (GMR) grating filters using PSO is reported. The spectra of the designed filters are in good agreement with the design targets in a reasonable computation time. Also, filters are designed with a genetic algorithm (GA) and the results obtained by the GA and PSO are compared.     

Delayed observation of laser-induced fluorescence for imaging of tumors

We report on a technique to improve fluorescence images of superficially growing tumors marked with photosensitizers. Exploiting the longer fluorescence decay times of porphyrin-based photosensitizers compared to average decay times of tissue autofluorescence, delayed detection of laser-induced fluorescence allows to suppress the autofluorescence background. The feasibility of delayed fluorescence imaging of tumors has been demonstrated in-vitro. It follows from an analysis of delayed fluorescence spectra that autofluorescence background falling into the photosensitizer fluorescence band can be reduced by up to one order of magnitude.     

Creation of Multiple Subwavelength Focal Spot Segments Using Phase Modulated Radially Polarized Multi Gaussian Beam

Based on the vector diffraction theory,the effect of complex phase filters on intensity distribution of a radially polarized multi Gaussian beam in the focal region of high NA lens is theoretically investigated.It is observed that a properly designed multi belt complex phase filter can generate subwavelength novel focal patterns including splitting of focal spots and generation of multiple focal spot segments such as eight,six and four focal spots along the optical axis are obtained.We expect that such an investigation is useful for optical manipulation and material processing,multiple high refractive index particle trapping technologies.

Steady state and time-resolved autofluorescence studies of human colonic tissues

Steady state and time-resolved autofluorescence spectroscopies are employed to study the autofluorescence characteristics of human colonic tissues in vitro. The excitation wavelength varies from 260 to 540 nm, and the corresponding fluorescence emission spectra are acquired from 280 to 800 nm. Significant difference in fluorescence intensity of excitation-emission matrices (EEMs) is observed between normal and tumor colonic tissues. Compared with normal colonic tissue, low nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (phosphate) (NAD(P)H) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), and high amino acids and protoporphyrin Ⅸ (PpⅨ) fluorescences characterize high-grade malignant tissue. Moreover, the autofluorescence lifetimes of normal and carcinomatous colonic tissues at 635 nm under 397-nm excitation are about 4.32±0.12 and 18.45±0.05 ns, respectively. The high accumulation of endogenous PpⅨ in colonic cancers is demonstrated in both steady state and time-resolved autofluorescence spectroscopies.     

Ultra-narrow bandwidth optical filters consisting of one-dimensional photonic crystals with anomalous dispersion materials

We present a new type of optical filter with an ultra-narrow bandwidth and a wide field-of-view （FOV）. This kind of optical filter consists of one-dimensional photonic crystal （PC） incorporating an anomalous-dispersion-material （ADM） with, for instance, an anomalous dispersion of 6P3/2←6S1/2 hyperfine structure transition of a caesium atom. The transmission spectra of optical filters are calculated by using the transfer-matrix method. The simulation results show that the designed optical filter has a bandwidth narrower than 0.33GHz and a wide FOV of ±30°as well. The response of transmission spectrum to an external magnetic field is also investigated.

Design and application of three-zone annular filters

We design three-zone annular filters to be applied to optical storage system. The designed filters extend the depth of focus and realize transverse superresolution simultaneously, which will improve the performance of optical storage system greatly. And we propose two feasible schemes to improve imaging resolution of three-dimensional imaging system. One scheme depends on a complex filter formed by cascading of a three-zone phase filter and a three-zone amplitude filter. The complex filter converge the optimized transverse superresolution and the optimized axial superresolution of two different filters onto a single filter. It can improve the three-dimensional imaging performances greatly. Another scheme depends on a single three-zone complex filter. We propose a three-zone complex filter with phase shift 0.8π, which presents bigger design margin, better imaging quality and stronger three-dimensional superresolution capability.     

Determination of gyrotropic characteristics in tetragonal zinc and cadmium diphosphide crystals

We have reported on the results of an investigation of the gyrotropic properties of zinc and cadmium diphosphide tetragonal crystals. It has been found that the regime of obtaining crystals affects the specific rotation of the light polarization plane in a cadmium diphosphide. It has been shown that the dispersion of optical activity in the polarizer–optically active crystal–analyzer system leads to oscillations in the transmission spectra under certain conditions. The peculiar optical properties of gyrotropic crystals placed in between two polarizers can be used to construct optical filters.     

Study of both fingerprint and high wavenumber Raman spectroscopy of pathological nasopharyngeal tissues

High wavenumber (HW) Raman spectroscopy has weaker fluorescence background compared with fingerprint (FP) region. This study aims to evaluate the discrimination feasibility of nasopharyngeal non‐cancerous and nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) tissue with both FP and HW Raman spectroscopy. HW Raman spectra of nasopharyngeal tissue were obtained for the first time. Raman spectra were collected to differentiate nasopharyngeal non‐cancerous (n = 37) from NPC (n = 41) tissues in FP (800–1800cm⁻¹), HW (2700–3100cm⁻¹), and integrated FP/HW region. First, to assess the utility of this method, the averaged Raman spectral intensities and intensity ratios of corresponding Raman bands were analyzed in HW and FP regions, respectively. The results show that intensities as well as the ratios of specific Raman peaks might be helpful in distinguishing nasopharyngeal non‐cancerous from NPC tissue with the HW Raman spectroscopy, as with FP Raman reported before. The multivariate statistical method based on the combination of principal component analysis–liner discriminant analysis (PCA‐LDA), together with leave‐one‐patient‐out, cross‐validation diagnostic algorithm, was used for discriminating nasopharyngeal non‐cancerous from NPC tissue, generating sensitivities of 87.8%, 85.4%, and 95.1% and specificities of 86.5%, 91.9%, and 89.2%, respectively, with Raman spectroscopy in the FP, HW, and integrated FP/HW regions. The posterior probability of classification results and receiver operating characteristic curves were utilized to evaluate the discrimination of PCA‐LDA algorithm, verifying that HW Raman spectroscopy has a positive effect on the differentiation for the diagnosis of NPC tissue by integrated FP/HW Raman spectroscopy. What's more, the potential of Raman spectroscopy used for differentiating different pathology NPC tissues was also discussed. The results demonstrate that both FP and HW Raman spectroscopy have the potential for diagnosis and detection in early nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and HW Raman spectroscopy may improve the discrimination of NPC tissue compared with FP region alone, providing a promising diagnostic tool for the diagnosis of NPC tissue.

Spectral filtering of femtosecond laser pulses by interference filters

Phase properties of optical thin film interference filters are discussed from the aspect of their usage for phase-error free wavelength separation of broadband femtosecond laser pulses. It is shown that both transmissive or reflective interference filters with high contrast ratios exhibit high cubic phase shifts on transmission or reflection, respectively, causing intolerable distortion in the temporal pulse shape. We show, however, that high efficiency wavelength separation of broadband femtosecond laser pulses can be achieved by using low contrast, properly designed reflective optical interference filters directly built into the cavity of the broad spectrum, femtosecond pulse lasers or parametric oscillators. For demonstrative purposes, we implemented the idea for a Kerr-lens mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser, and obtained two-color, inherently synchronized, unchirped, femtosecond pulse outputs from a single laser oscillator.     

Realization of THz dualband absorber with periodic cross-shaped graphene metamaterials

A dualband terahertz(THz) absorber including periodically distributed cross-shaped graphene arrays and a gold layer spaced by a thin dielectric layer is investigated.Numerical results reveal that the THz absorber displays two perfect absorption peaks.To elucidate the resonant behavior, the LC model is introduced to fit the spectra.Moreover, the strength and linewidth of the absorption peak can be effectively tuned with structural parameters and the relaxation time of graphene.Owing to its rotational symmetry, this THz absorber exhibits polarization insensitivity.Our designed absorber is a promising candidate in applications of tunable optical sensors and optical filters.     

Simultaneous time- and wavelength-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy for near real-time tissue diagnosis

A novel fiber-optic-based method for simultaneous time- and wavelength-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy for the rapid diagnosis of diseased tissue is demonstrated. By combining multiple bandpass and dichroic filters (405/40, 460/50, and 550/50) with different lengths of optical fiber (1, 10, and 19 m) acting as an optical delay this system enables the near real-time acquisition and characterization of time-resolved fluorescence spectra using a single detector and excitation input. The recording of multiple fluorescence response pulses at selected wavelengths can be completed in hundreds of nanoseconds, which provides the capability of a real-time characterization of biological systems.     

光电混合相关识别系统中匹配滤波器缩放比例的确定方法

在光电混合匹配滤波相关识别系统中,由于输入图像的频谱与匹配滤波器的形成方式不同,不能直接实现对应频率成份的准确对准。这个问题需要通过对匹配滤波器进行缩放来解决。根据透镜的傅里叶变换性质和计算全息理论,分别推导出输入图像的频谱的表达式和滤波空间光调制器加载了匹配滤波器后的透射函数的表达式,并根据这两个表达式得到匹配滤波器的缩放比例的公式,然后在实际的光学识别系统中对根据该公式计算的缩放比例进行了验证。实验结果表明,在该缩放比例下,相关峰的质量有较大改善,这说明此时输入图像的频谱与匹配滤波器对应频率成份实现了较好地对准。     

Distinguishing Structure Change of Cells Based on Analysis of Light Scattering Patterns

We develop a new method to distinguish structural change of cells based on light scattering and Fourier spectra analysis. The light scattering detection system is composed of a laser source, an optical microscope, a CCD with high resolution and low distortion. After the scattering patterns of cells are recorded by the CCD, the Fourier spectra are obtained by the intensity distribution of scattered light. In the experiment, the change of cell structure is designed by sonication treatment. It is found that different typical peaks can be shown in the Fourier spectra of MCF7 cells with and without sonication treatment, which indicates that this method can be used to distinguish the structural change of cells.
