Fluorescence and optical-resolution photoacoustic imaging through capillary waveguides

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Salma Farahi, Nicolino Stasio, Emmanuel André Henri Bossy

Endoscopy can be used to obtain high-resolution images at large depths in biological tissues. Usually endoscopic devices have a diameter ranging from 1 to few millimeters. Using digital phase conjugation, it is possible to adapt ultrathin multimode fibers ...

Minimally Invasive Optical Photoacoustic Endoscopy with a Single Waveguide for Light and Sound

Demetri Psaltis, Ioannis Papadopoulos, Christophe Moser, Salma Farahi, Nicolino Stasio, Emmanuel André Henri Bossy

An endoscopic device for photoacoustic imaging, including a multimode optical fiber having a distal end and a proximal end, a light source to provide a light beam to the proximal end of the multimode optical fiber, a transducer to capture acoustic waves th ...

Methods and apparatus for imaging with multimode optical fibers

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Ioannis Papadopoulos, Salma Farahi

A multimode waveguide illuminator and imager relies on a wave front shaping system that acts to compensate for modal scrambling and light dispersion by the multimode waveguide. A first step consists of calibrating the multimode waveguide and a second step ...

Delivery of ultrashort spatially focused pulses through a multimode fiber for two photon endoscopic imaging

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Salma Farahi, Edgar Emilio Morales Delgado

Due to their high number of supported modes, multimode optical fibers carry large amount of spatio-temporal information. However, propagation of a light pulse through a multimode optical fiber suffers from spatial distortions due to superposition of the va ...

Towards new applications using capillary waveguides

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Salma Farahi, Nicolino Stasio, Emmanuel André Henri Bossy

In this paper we demonstrate the enhancement of the sensing capabilities of glass capillaries. We exploit their properties as optical and acoustic waveguides to transform them potentially into high resolution minimally invasive endoscopic devices. We show ...

Delivery of an ultrashort spatially focused pulse to the other end of a multimode fiber using digital phase conjugation

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Salma Farahi, Edgar Emilio Morales Delgado

Multimode optical fibers potentially allow the transmission of larger amounts of information than their single mode counterparts because of their high number of supported modes. However, propagation of a light pulse through a multimode fiber suffers from s ...

Digital confocal microscopy through a multimode fiber

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Ioannis Papadopoulos, Damien Claude-Marie Loterie, Salma Farahi, Alexandre Goy

Acquiring high-contrast optical images deep inside biological tissues is still a challenging problem. Confocal microscopy is an important tool for biomedical imaging since it improves image quality by rejecting background signals. However, it suffers from ...

Complex pattern projection through a multimode fiber

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Damien Claude-Marie Loterie, Salma Farahi

Wavefront shaping through multimode fibers has many interesting applications, such as micromanipulation and endoscopy, where the small diameter of fibers is an advantage in terms of miniaturization. However, pattern projection can suffer from deleterious i ...

Digital confocal microscopy through a multimode fiber

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Ioannis Papadopoulos, Damien Claude-Marie Loterie, Salma Farahi, Alexandre Goy

Confocal laser-scanning microscopy is a well-known optical imaging method where a pinhole is used in the illumination and detection pathways of a normal microscope, in order to selectively excite and detect a particular focal volume. The advantage of this ...
