An optical-frequency synthesizer using integrated photonics

Tobias Kippenberg, Nicolas Volet, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer

Optical-frequency synthesizers, which generate frequency-stable light from a single microwave-frequency reference, are revolutionizing ultrafast science and metrology, but their size, power requirement and cost need to be reduced if they are to be more wid ...

Integrated angular tracking and plasmonic membrane surfaces for a point of a care refractive index sensor

Hatice Altug, Harry Heinzelmann, Cenk Ibrahim Özdemir, Marie-Claude Bay

We present an optical system which integrates a plasmonic sensing surface and an angular tracking system to enable a compact refractive index measurement. A refractive index change at the surface of the sensing membrane causes a change in the angle at whic ...

Heinrich Wild's Polaristrobometer: An early form of chemical polarimeter

Jean-François Loude

The year 2011 having been proclaimed by UNESCO and IUPAP “International Year of Chemistry”, it seems fitting to have a close look at a physical chemistry instrument, the Polaristrobometer, an early form of polarimeter/saccharimeter, at its inventor, the Sw ...

Compressed sensing for wide-field radio interferometric imaging

Yves Wiaux, Jason Douglas McEwen

For the next generation of radio interferometric telescopes it is of paramount importance to incorporate wide field-of-view (WFOV) considerations in interferometric imaging, otherwise the fidelity of reconstructed images will suffer greatly. We extend comp ...

Optofluidic pressure sensor based on interferometric imaging

Demetri Psaltis, Wuzhou Song

We present a chip-scale optofluidic interferometric sensor for measuring liquid pressure based on an imaging method. The chip was constructed with a polymer by multilayer soft lithography. It consists of a flexible air gap optical cavity, which, upon illum ...

Beam-width-dependent filtering properties of strong volume holographic gratings

Demetri Psaltis, Wei Liu

The finite dimension of the incident beam used to read out volume holographic gratings has interesting effects on their filtering properties. As the readout beam gets narrower, there is more deviation from the ideal response predicted for monochromatic pla ...

Matrix optics approach for liquid crystalline blue phases

Toralf Scharf

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 ...
