We will present experimental and theoretical studies of optical fields with subwavelength structures, in particular phase singularities and coherent detection methods with nanometric resolution. An electromagnetic field is characterized by an amplitude, a ...
We present a new digital two-step reconstruction method for off-axis holograms recorded on a CCD camera. First, we retrieve the complex object wave in the acquisition plane from the hologram's samples. In a second step, if required, we propagate the wave f ...
Few models, based on the diffraction theory, are proposed in order to evaluate the point spread function of different microscope objectives used in a digital holographic microscope. Because in holography the phase information is essential, a 3D amplitude p ...
A simple system for optical and microwave signals analysis based on the optical sampling technique is presented. It is novel in requiring only low-frequency detection and electronic components. This is made possible by the use of a commercially available L ...
In this paper we present recent single molecule detection experiment using a solid immersion lens (SIL) for fluorescent correlation spectroscopy measurements. We compared the performance of the SIL in combination with an air objective (40×, numerical apert ...
A simple model is proposed in order to evaluate the complex amplitude point spread function (intensity and phase) of a microscope objective. The model is based on the Fresnel diffraction theory and takes also into account the possible optical aberrations. ...
A simple system for optical and microwave signal analysis developed based on the optical sampling technique. The system was a commercial Lithium Niobate travelling wave Electro-optical modulator as an optical gate. The ultimate performance of the system wa ...

Digital holograms are recorded by a CCD camera and are numerically reconstructed, in intensity and phase, by means of an algorithm which calculates their discrete Fresnel transform. By using a low-coherence source, the tomography of a 3D scene can be perfo ...
A volume hologram has two degenerate Bragg-phase-matching dimensions and provides the capability of volume holographic imaging. We demonstrate two volume holographic imaging architectures and investigate their imaging resolution, aberration, and sensitivit ...
