Liquid crystalline blue phases (LCBP) and their diffraction patterns were investigated experimentally and theoretically. We measured the diffraction pattern for different wavelengths of monochromatic light with the help of a conoscopic setup of a polarizat ...
We present what we believe to be a new digital holographic imaging method that is able to determine simultaneously the distributions of intensity, phase, and polarization state at the surface of a specimen on the basis of a single image acquisition. Two re ...
We propose a new spectral prediction model as well as new approaches for modeling ink spreading which occurs when printing ink layer superpositions. The spectral prediction model enhances the classical Clapper-Yule model by taking into account the fact tha ...
We propose and demonstrate a widely tunable optical filter, realized by angle tuning a volume holographic grating. The volume holographic grating selectively drops a narrow portion of the signal bandwidth into a fiber while passing through the rest of the ...
The coupling and transmission of transverse and longitudinal fields into apertureless microfabricated near-field optical probes is investigated. Two kinds of probes with different metal coating roughness are considered. Transverse and longitudinal field di ...
The dynamic range, sensitivity and dark decay of holographic recording in LiNbO3 crystals doped with 0.2 atomic% Mn with different oxidation states have been measured. The sensitivity is 0.5 cm/J and found to be independent of the oxidation states, while t ...
The dynamic range, sensitivity, and dark decay of holographic recording of wavelength 458 nm in LiNbO3 crystals doped with 0.2-at. % Mn with different oxidation states have been measured. The measured sensitivity is 0.5 cm/J and is found to be independent ...
Diode-pumped solid body laser comprises an acoustic-optical modulator, a laser crystal, a delay plate and a crystal that doubles the frequency of the laser beam. Pulse lengthening is carried out by internal coupling of a doubler mechanism within the laser ...
Metalation/trapping sequences applied to relatively inert, tert-alkyl substituted arenes tend to give poor yields unless the reagent is used in high concns. Under optimized conditions, even 1,4-bis(tert-butyl)benzene, 1,1,3,3-tetramethylindane and 1,1,2,2, ...
On many tokamaks the reconstruction of the magnetic field structure in the plasma is supported by polarimetric measurements. Recent proposed and realized methods are based on a far-infrared laser beam with a rotating polarization ellipse. The same instrume ...
