The present thesis develops some specific aspects of digital holographic microscopy (DHM), namely the effect of shot noise on the phase image accuracy, the use of DHM in micro-tomography and in aberrations evaluation of a microscope objective (MO). DHM is ...
Information about the poloidal field inside the plasma and about the current density profile is essential for the understanding of the behavior of tokamak plasmas. The poloidal field outside the plasma edge is easily measured by a set of magnetic coils, wh ...
This work augments the proposal of Schwarzenbach & Flack [J. Appl. Cryst. (1989), 22, 601-605], who have advocated the use of a diffractometer-independent definition of the azimuthal angle ψ to specify the diffractiongeometry of a Bragg reflection. It ...
In this paper, we present a transmission polarization digital holographic microscope (Pol-DHM) that allows for imaging the state of polarization of a wave front with the acquisition of a single hologram. This apparatus records, using a CCD camera, the inte ...
In this thesis, we describe a method for the numerical reconstruction of the complete wavefront properties from a single digital hologram: the amplitude, the phase and the polarization state. For this purpose, we present the principle of digital holographi ...
The in-plane component of the wavefield provides valuable information about media properties from seismology to nondestructive testing. A new compact scanning laser ultrasonic interferometer collects light scattered away from the angle of incidence to prov ...
The polarization-related properties of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) processes in long, randomly birefringent, standard optical fibers are examined. Evolution equations for the pump and signal waves, in the presence of both birefringence and SBS, a ...
We present a comprehensive study of the anisotropic optical properties of nonpolar GaN/AlGaN multiple quantum wells intentionally designed to act as an active region of a planar microcavity operating in the strong-coupling regime. The strain induced by the ...
Based on liquid crystal polymers (LCP) a compact micro-optical polarizer with high efficiency has been designed and realized. By using cylindrical mierolens arrays made of LCP and index matching layer, a complete separation of both polarization components ...
A reflecting cell allowing the dynamic and independent control of the reflection phase of two perpendicular linearly-polarized waves is presented. This capability is useful for the implementation of dual-polarized beam-reconfigurable reflectarrays, as well ...
