基于光程编码与相干合成的三维超分辨术

光学相干层析成像的轴向分辨率和横向分辨率是互为独立的,其轴向分辨率由系统光源带宽和探测光束的聚焦条件共同决定,而横向分辨率由系统样品臂的聚焦条件决定. 提高光学相干层析成像的轴向分辨率的方法主要基于宽带光源技术以及变迹术与相干门相结合的方法,而这些方法对于横向分辨率并没有提高. 提出了一种通过光程编码与相干合成的方法,可以同时提高其轴向分辨率和横向分辨率. 通过在光学相干层析成像系统的样品臂中加入光程编码分束器形成多种对应不同光程延迟的有效响应函数,基于光学相干层析成像术固有的光程分辨能力可以得到同一样品对应于不同有效响应函数的多幅图像. 通过数字控制不同有效响应函数的相对贡献对其进行相干合成,可以同时实现轴向和横向的超分辨效果. 与以前的方法相比,光程编码与相干合成方法简单易行、成本低廉,不仅可以避免系统复杂和价格昂贵等不足,而且可以同时较大幅度地提高系统的轴向分辨率和横向分辨率. 关键词： 光学相干层析成像 轴向超分辨 横向超分辨 光程编码

A simple way for improving the identification of the central fringe in a fibre-optic white-light interferometer

A white-light fibre-optic interferometer working in the spatial domain, using a special three-peak-wavelength LED as the light source, is presented. Based on the Gaussian spectrum distribution function, a simple spectrum decomposing method has been used to describe the special three-peak-wavelength LED source. Experimental and theoretical analyses show that the special three-peak-wavelength LED source can be used in white light interferometry to simplify the problem of central fringe identification.

Evaluation of spectral phase in spectrally resolved white-light interferometry: Comparative study of single-frame techniques

Spectral phase in a white-light interferogram contains information about the absolute optical path difference (OPD) in the interferometer. Evaluation of spectral phase is therefore important in applications such as profilometry with white light. In spectrally resolved white-light interferometry (SRWLI) the white-light interferogram is spectrally decomposed by a spectrometer in order to determine this phase. Several single-frame techniques in SRWLI have been proposed for the evaluation of the phase including Fourier transform, Hilbert transform, spatial phase shifting, windowed Fourier transform and wavelet transform. In this paper we present a comparative study of these techniques in this application in relation to the temporal phase-shifting technique which is a multi- frame method. Further, we also propose a modified method to remove the influence of source spectrum modulation in Hilbert transform procedure.     

Recent progress in single chip white light-emitting diodes with the InGaN underlying layer

Tremendous progress has been achieved in white light-emitting diodes (LEDs). To further improve the quality of white light and simplify the fabrication process, a single chip white-light LED with the InGaN underlying layer (UL) was studied and fabricated. The turn-on voltage of this type of LED was 2.7 V, and the spectrum at a forward bias current of 20 mA was comprised of blue (443 nm) and yellow (563 nm) lights. The intensity ratio of blue to yellow light was almost constant with the in- creasing injectio...     

Sensitive high-resolution white-light Schlieren technique with a large dynamic range for the investigation of ablation dynamics

We developed a modified Hoffman contrast technique with a 12 ns pulsed incoherent extended white-light source that enables an easily interpretable visualization of ablation plumes with high resolution, a large dynamic range, and color information. By comparison, a conventional dark-field setup with a slitlike laser light source provides large sensitivity but a small dynamic range, and it is difficult to interpret the filtered images.

Channeled spectropolarimetry using a coherent white-light continuum

We carry out polarization measurements using a coherent white-light continuum as a light source for channeled spectropolarimetry. The white-light continuum, whose spectrum ranges from the UV to the IR region, is generated in Kr gas by a terawatt femtosecond laser system. The complete set of Stokes parameters from 450-700 nm are reconstructed from one spectral measurement. Also, the effectiveness of channeled spectropolarimetry using a coherent white-light continuum is experimentally demonstrated with a highly attenuating sample whose transmittance is as low as 10(-6).     

Coherent Array of White-Light Continuum Generated by Microlens Array

We generated a white-light continuum array by directing femtosecond laser pulses into a liquid with a microlens array. Experimental evidence demonstrates that the spatial coherence is high within a single light source in the array. We also confirmed that all the light sources in the white-light continuum array are mutually coherent. We found that the simple self-phase modulation model cannot explain this high coherence between the white continuum sources.     

Investigation on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography using a tungsten halogen lamp as light source

The objective of this research was to investigate a new detection method using a thermal light source in a spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT) operation to improve both image acquisition rate and axial resolution economically. A tungsten halogen lamp was chosen as the illumination source and a Michelson fiber interferometer was employed to generate the interference pattern of an object collected by a spectrometer; the inner structure of the object was obtained from the interference pattern by a Fourier transform. An experiment was performed by measuring a thin film coated on a glass base with the system, and the experimental results indicated that the structure of the thin film could be clearly observed as expected. It was theoretically stated and experimentally verified that the technique was feasible and enables imaging to realize the reconstructions of internal structure of engineering and biological object.
