Laser-based manufacturing of freeform glass micro-optics through topological transformation

Glass has been the material of choice for making optical elements, in large part due to its intrinsic properties: a temperature-dependent viscosity, which enables shaping the material into a broad variety of functional and artistic glassware. Silica glass ...

Searching for Strong Gravitational Lenses

Frédéric Courbin, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon

Strong gravitational lenses provide unique laboratories for cosmological and astrophysical investigations, but they must first be discovered - a task that can be met with significant contamination by other astrophysical objects and asterisms. Here we revie ...

The uniformity of large microlens arrays in Fused Silica is governed by the production process. It comprises photolithographic patterning of a spin-coated layer of photoresist on a 200mm wafer with a molten resist reflow process and subsequent dry etching. ...

OPTICAL SOC AMER2019

In order to enlarge the capability for in-plane manipulation of the Bloch surface wave (BSW), we investigate 2D gradient index (GRIN) optical components using a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) numerical method. To ease difficulties in fabrication to a ...

We revisit the scaling laws in micro-optical systems to highlight new phenomena arising beyond a conventional optical regime, especially when the size of the system approaches to the operational wavelength. Our goal is to visualize the impact of the scalin ...

Refraction limit of miniaturized optical systems: a ball-lens example

Hans Peter Herzig, Roland Andreas Bitterli, Toralf Scharf, Wilfried Noell, Myun Sik Kim

We study experimentally and theoretically the electromagnetic field in amplitude and phase behind ball-lenses across a wide range of diameters, ranging from a millimeter scale down to a micrometer. Based on the observation, we study the transition between ...

MULTISCALE GUIDED DEBLURRING: CHROMATIC ABERRATION CORRECTION IN COLOR AND NEAR-INFRARED IMAGING

Sabine Süsstrunk, Yue Lu, Zahra Sadeghipoor Kermani

Chromatic aberration, caused by photographic lens imperfections, results in the image of only one spectral channel being sharp, while the other channels are blurred depending on their wavelengths difference with the sharp channel. We study chromatic aberra ...

Origin and nature of measurement bias in catadioptric parallel goniophotometers

Marilyne Andersen, Boris Clément Karamata

We briefly categorize and compare parallel goniophotometers, which are instruments capable of simultaneously measuring the far-field distribution of light scattered by a surface or emitted by a source over a large solid angle. Little is known about the acc ...

Light ﬁeld panorama by a plenoptic camera

Martin Vetterli, Paolo Prandoni, Loïc Arnaud Baboulaz, Zhou Xue

Consumer-grade plenoptic camera Lytro draws a lot of interest from both academic and industrial world. However its low resolution in both spatial and angular domain prevents it from being used for ﬁne and detailed light ﬁeld acquisition. This paper propose ...

A new device for dynamic luminance mapping and glare risk assessment in buildings

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Laurent Deschamps, Apiparn Borisuit

High dynamic range imaging has been shown to be a reliable tool to assess luminance maps and glare risk probability in buildings. However, there are some limitations of image capturing time, especially when dealing with highly dynamic and contrasted daylig ...
