Dual-shot approach for polarization retrieval through a scattering medium

A dual-shot technique based on the field basis addition of two statistically independent speckle patterns is developed to recover an input polarization through a scattering layer. It is proposed theoretically, and demonstrated both numerically and experime ...

Multipolar Pseudochirality-Induced Optical Torque

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Andrei Kiselev, Mintae Chung

It has been observed that achiral nanoparticles, such as flat helices, may be subjected to an optical torque even when illuminated by normally incident linearly polarized light. However, the origin of this fascinating phenomenon has so far remained mostly ...

Spun fibres: a quasi circularly birefringent medium

Luc Thévenaz, Ana Gabriela Correa Mena, Xu Cheng

A simplified model describing the polarisation characteristics of spun fibres is proposed, aiming at determining how close to a circularly birefringent medium such a fibre is. This is of crucial importance regarding the interest of such a medium for magnet ...

Layered metals as polarized transparent conductors

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Maja Deborah Bachmann, Matthias Carsten Putzke, Chunyu Guo

The quest to improve transparent conductors balances two key goals: increasing electrical conductivity and increasing optical transparency. To improve both simultaneously is hindered by the physical limitation that good metals with high electrical conducti ...

Exploring Novel Modalities for Optical Diffraction Tomography

Amirhossein Saba Shirvan

In the past decade, optical diffraction tomography has gained a lot of attention for its ability to create label-free three-dimensional (3D) images of the refractive index distribution of biological samples using scattered fields measured through holograph ...

Optical metasurfaces: synthesis, nanofabrication, and colorful applications

Hsiang-Chu Wang

In this thesis, we mainly utilize silver to construct the meta-atoms. Although suffering from easily oxidized, its excellent lossless property throughout the visible range makes it suitable for study. When preserved properly, silver-made metasurfaces can s ...

Polarization-sensitive optics diffraction tomography

Demetri Psaltis, Joowon Lim, Elizabeth Elena Antoine, Amirhossein Saba Shirvan, Ahmed Ayoub

Polarization of light has been widely used as a contrast mechanism in two-dimensional (2D) microscopy and also in some three-dimensional (3D) imaging modalities. In this paper, we report the 3D tomographic reconstruction of the refractive index (RI) tensor ...

Vibration monitoring based on optical sensing of mechanical nonlinearities in glass suspended waveguides

Yves Bellouard, Tao Yang, Pieter Vlugter, Enrico Casamenti

Vibration monitoring plays a key role in numerous applications, including machinerypredictive maintenance, shock detection, space applications, packaging-integrity monitoring andmining. Here, we investigate mechanical nonlinearities inherently present in s ...

Extreme polarization-dependent supercontinuum generation in an uncladded silicon nitride waveguide

Camille Sophie Brès, Eirini Tagkoudi, Caroline Gaëlle Amiot

We experimentally demonstrate the generation of a short-wave infrared supercontinuum in an uncladded silicon nitride (Si3N4) waveguide with extreme polarization sensitivity at the pumping wavelength of 2.1 µm. The air-clad waveguide is specifically designe ...

A Computational Framework For Two-Dimensional Random Walks With Restarts

Stefano Massei

The treatment of two-dimensional random walks in the quarter plane leads to Markov processes which involve semi-infinite matrices having Toeplitz or block Toeplitz structure plus a low-rank correction. We propose an extension of the framework introduced in ...
