All-Dielectric Programmable Huygens' Metasurfaces

Hatice Altug, Andreas Tittl, Aleksandrs Leitis

Low-loss nanostructured dielectric metasurfaces have emerged as a breakthrough platform for ultrathin optics and cutting-edge photonic applications, including beam shaping, focusing, and holography. However, the static nature of their constituent materials ...

Compact lensless digital holography

Manon Rostykus

Microscopy is of high interest for biology since it allows imaging features that are too small to be seen with naked eyes. However, cells are mostly transparent to visible and infrared light which makes it difficult to see with a traditional microscope. To ...

Coherent imaging from bacteria to multicellular organisms

Séverine Coquoz

Structural and functional imaging of cells, tissues and organisms is crucial for understanding biomedical processes. Fluorescence microscopy is an established tool and has contributed to many discoveries in the life sciences. This technique provides molecu ...

Variational Phase Imaging Using the Transport-of-Intensity Equation

Michaël Unser, Daniel Sage, Emrah Bostan, Masih Nilchian, Emmanuel Augustin Julien Froustey

We introduce a variational phase retrieval algorithm for the imaging of transparent objects. Our formalism is based on the transport-of-intensity equation (TIE), which relates the phase of an optical field to the variation of its intensity along the direct ...

Hermite Snakes with Control of Tangents

Michaël Unser, Julien René Pierre Fageot, Virginie Sophie Uhlmann

We introduce a new model of parametric contours defined in a continuous fashion. Our curve model relies on Hermite spline interpolation and can easily generate curves with sharp discontinuities; it also grants direct access to the tangent at each location. ...

In Digital holography Microscopes (DHM) implemented in the so-called "off axis" configuration, the object and reference wave fronts are not co-planar but form an angle of a few degrees. This results into two main drawbacks. First, the contrast of the inter ...

The present study evaluated the potential of using the phase of T-2* weighted MR images to characterize myelination during brain development and pathology in rodents at 9.4 T. Phase contrast correlated with myelin content assessed by histology and suggests ...

High-resolution cell outline segmentation and tracking from phase-contrast microscopy images

Jean-Jacques Meister, Charles Brepsant, Mark Etienne Ambühl

Accurate extraction of cell outlines from microscopy images is essential for analysing the dynamics of migrating cells. Phase-contrast microscopy is one of the most common and convenient imaging modalities for observing cell motility because it does not re ...

Differential Phase-Contrast X-Ray Computed Tomography: From Model Discretization To Image Reconstruction

Michaël Unser, Masih Nilchian

Our contribution in this paper is two fold. First, we propose a novel discretization of the forward model for differential phase-contrast imaging that uses B-spline basis functions. The approach yields a fast and accurate algorithm for implementing the for ...
