Geometrical aberrations of self-imaged line gratings

We analyze the properties of a self-imaging system from the point of view of aberration theory. We examine analytically and numerically the geometrical aberrations that are observed in the self-image of a parallel-line grating. We first derive the raytracing equations for determining the optical path of a self-imaging ray with the order of diffraction l. We then obtain the third- and fifth-order contributions to ray aberrations which arise from the difference between the optical paths of a self-imaging ray and of an actual ray. We show that the overall ray aberrations are entirely undercorrected. The ray aberrations approach zero as the ratio of the grating constant to the wavelength of light becomes large enough. In a case of unit magnification, no curvatures are observed in the self-imaged lines. If the magnification is bigger than unity, the light rays passing through the point in a positive or negative domain of the aperture variable contribute to the formation of the curved images. The image evaluation technique discussed here can be useful in the various applications related to the self-image formation of a parallel-line grating and it can also provide insight into the self-imaging of other periodic objects.

Ray aberrations of two-dimensional oblique lattices on the self-image plane

We extend the geometrical theory of aberration for a self-imaging system to the case of two-dimensional oblique lattices. In our approach, the fundamental translation vectors of the lattice are not restricted in both length and orientation. Evaluating the disturbance of light through the oblique lattice under coherent illumination, we find the conditions of constraint which limit the self-imaging of the oblique lattice. Various types of oblique lattices are shown to obey the self-imaging conditions. We derive the equations to trace the optical paths of self-imaging rays and then analyze the ray aberrations which arise from the difference between the optical paths of a self-imaging ray and of the corresponding actual ray. The ray aberrations are shown to disappear when the periods of the lattice are large compared with the wavelength of light. We find that the ray aberrations carried by self-imaged oblique lattices are totally undercorrected and the aberrated image patches are displaced along the direction tangent vector of a chief ray.

Optical encoder based on Fractional-Talbot effect using two-dimensional phase grating

This work presents an optical encoder that uses a two-dimensional phase grating. Rather than using a four-windowed scanning grating, this design with a special two-dimensional phase index grating generates two sinusoidal signals that are mutually phase-shifted by 180°. Afterwards, two large-areas, specially structured index grating generates the four 90° electrically phase-shifted scanning signals. The special design of the two-dimensional phase index grating provides more accuracy of phase-shift by using the fact that the  + 1 and −1 diffraction orders are intrinsically phase-shifted from one another by 180°. The gap between the phase index grating and mail scale was increased to three quarters of Talbot distance. The tolerance of gap between the index and main grating is 0.1 mm. The tolerance of yaw motion is ± 0.25°.     

Gain Assisted Raman Induced Classical and Quantum Talbot Imaging

2D Raman generated classical and quantum Talbot imaging is proposed in a three-level gain assisted system. First, a 2D Raman induced grating (RIG) will be constructed by modulating transmission function in the weak probe channel using a strong control standing wave field. Furthermore, RIG will diffract a probe field, by shining a probing light beam on an optically generated lattice within a rubidium vapor cell. This study uses gain assisted Raman medium [Nature 406 , 277 (2000)] to examine classical and quantum Talbot imaging. In the case of Raman-induced classical imaging, the diffraction pattern repeats itself at planes with integer multiple Talbot lengths. Additionally, by taking into account entangled photon pairs, the scenario of Raman-induced quantum imaging is investigated. This study also looks at the RIG's amplitude and phase information with adjustable image size variation. As a result of the gain feature and zero absorption, this system is anticipated to be more suitable from the perspective of application. This analysis may pave the way for further research into the Talbot effect's nonlinear and quantum dynamical properties. Also, it provide a non-destructive, lensless method for imaging very cold atoms or molecules.

Talbot effect under illumination of double femtosecond laser pulses

The Talbot effect under illumination of double femtosecond laser pulses has been reported. Spectrums of double femtosecond laser pulses with phase differences are quite different from that of one single femtosecond laser pulse. Therefore, the Talbot images of the double femtosecond laser pulses with phase differences are different from that of one single femtosecond laser pulse. Specifically, for the phase difference corresponding to π, the Talbot image shows the largest difference from that of one single pulse. Experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical analysis. The behaviors of Talbot images under double femtosecond laser pulses illumination cannot be obtained under one femtosecond laser pulse, monochromatic or polychromatic light illumination. Therefore, it is a new interesting optical phenomenon for the Talbot effect which should have potential applications.
