文摘AIM:To assess the variations in photoreceptor cell packing density(PCPD)across the retina among young healthy individuals with emmetropia,low and moderate myopia.METHODS:High-resolution adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy(AOSLO)systems were utilized for retinal imaging with a large sampling window of 700μm×700μm.The study cohort included 14 emmetropic[spherical equivalent(SE)ranged+0.5 to-0.5 D],15 low myopic(SE ranged-0.5 to-3 D)and 21 moderate myopic(SE ranged-3 to-6 D)healthy young adults.Photoreceptors at 3°temporal,6°superior and inferior 6°were captured.Statistical analysis was then performed to obtain PCPD and cell spacing.RESULTS:The average age of participants was 22.54±2.86(ranged 20–30y)with no difference among 3 groups.At 3°temporal,the emmetropic group exhibited the highest PCPD of 15186.16±2050.54 cells/mm^(2),while the low and moderate myopic groups had PCPD of 14009.15±1073.01 and 13466.92±1121.71 cells/mm2,respectively.At 3°temporal,the emmetropic group also had the smallest cell spacing at 6.66±0.26 mm,compared to 6.85±0.26 and 6.91±0.28 mm for the low and moderate myopic groups,respectively.Compared to the emmetropic group,at 3°temporal,the myopic groups showed significantly reduced PCPD(low myopia:P=0.032;moderate myopia:P=0.001).At 6°inferior,the moderate myopic group exhibited a significant decrease in PCPD(P=0.013),while at 6°superior,there were no significant statistical differences in PCPD for the low and moderate myopic groups(P>0.05).In comparison to the emmetropic group,only the moderate myopic group showed significantly increased cell spacing at all three positions(temporal 3°:P=0.011,superior 6°:P=0.046,inferior 6°:P=0.013).Correlation analysis revealed a positive correlation between PCPD and axial length changes(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Reduced PCPD and increased cell spacing strongly correlated with refractive error in mild to moderate myopic eyes,especially at 6°inferior to the fovea and the decreased PCPD in the macular region of myopic patients may be associated with increased axial lengthinduced retinal stretching.

文摘Manufacturing-robust imaging systems leveraging computational optics hold immense potential for easing manufacturing constraints and enabling the development of cost-effective,high-quality imaging solutions.However,conventional approaches,which typically rely on data-driven neural networks to correct optical aberrations caused by manufacturing errors,are constrained by the lack of effective tolerance analysis methods for quantitatively evaluating manufacturing error boundaries.This limitation is crucial for further relaxing manufacturing constraints and providing practical guidance for fabrication.We propose a physics-informed design paradigm for manufacturing-robust imaging systems with computational optics,integrating a physics-informed tolerance analysis methodology for evaluating manufacturing error boundaries and a physics-informed neural network for image reconstruction.With this approach,we achieve a manufacturing-robust imaging system based on an off-axis three-mirror freeform all-aluminum design,delivering a modulation transfer function exceeding 0.34 at the Nyquist frequency(72 lp/mm)in simulation.Notably,this system requires a manufacturing precision of only 0.5λin root mean square(RMS),representing a remarkable 25-fold relaxation compared with the conventional requirement of 0.02λin RMS.Experimental validation further confirmed that the manufacturing-robust imaging system maintains excellent performance in diverse indoor and outdoor environments.Our proposed method paves the way for achieving high-quality imaging without the necessity of high manufacturing precision,enabling practical solutions that are more cost-effective and time-efficient.

文摘Adaptive optics(AO)has significantly advanced high-resolution solar observations by mitigating atmospheric turbulence.However,traditional post-focal AO systems suffer from external configurations that introduce excessive optical surfaces,reduced light throughput,and instrumental polarization.To address these limitations,we propose an embedded solar adaptive optics telescope(ESAOT)that intrinsically incorporates the solar AO(SAO)subsystem within the telescope's optical train,featuring a co-designed correction chain with a single Hartmann-Shack full-wavefront sensor(HS f-WFS)and a deformable secondary mirror(DSM).The HS f-WFS uses temporal-spatial hybrid sampling technique to simultane-ously resolve tip-tilt and high-order aberrations,while the DSM performs real-time compensation through adaptive modal optimization.This unified architecture achieves symmetrical polarization suppression and high system throughput by min-imizing optical surfaces.A 600 mm ESAOT prototype incorporating a 12×12 micro-lens array HS f-WFS and 61-actuator piezoelectric DSM has been developed and successfully conducted on-sky photospheric observations.Validations in-cluding turbulence simulations,optical bench testing,and practical observations at the Lijiang observatory collectively confirm the system's capability to maintain aboutλ/10 wavefront error during active region tracking.This architectural breakthrough of the ESAOT addresses long-standing SAO integration challenges in solar astronomy and provides scala-bility analyses confirming direct applicability to the existing and future large solar observation facilities.

文摘Fourier Ptychographic Microscopy(FPM)is a high-throughput computational optical imaging technology reported in 2013.It effectively breaks through the trade-off between high-resolution imaging and wide-field imaging.In recent years,it has been found that FPM is not only a tool to break through the trade-off between field of view and spatial resolution,but also a paradigm to break through those trade-off problems,thus attracting extensive attention.Compared with previous reviews,this review does not introduce its concept,basic principles,optical system and series of applications once again,but focuses on elaborating the three major difficulties faced by FPM technology in the process from“looking good”in the laboratory to“working well”in practical applications:mismatch between numerical model and physical reality,long reconstruction time and high computing power demand,and lack of multi-modal expansion.It introduces how to achieve key technological innovations in FPM through the dual drive of Artificial Intelligence(AI)and physics,including intelligent reconstruction algorithms introducing machine learning concepts,optical-algorithm co-design,fusion of frequency domain extrapolation methods and generative adversarial networks,multi-modal imaging schemes and data fusion enhancement,etc.,gradually solving the difficulties of FPM technology.Conversely,this review deeply considers the unique value of FPM technology in potentially feeding back to the development of“AI+optics”,such as providing AI benchmark tests under physical constraints,inspirations for the balance of computing power and bandwidth in miniaturized intelligent microscopes,and photoelectric hybrid architectures.Finally,it introduces the industrialization path and frontier directions of FPM technology,pointing out that with the promotion of the dual drive of AI and physics,it will generate a large number of industrial application case,and looks forward to the possibilities of future application scenarios and expansions,for instance,body fluid biopsy and point-of-care testing at the grassroots level represent the expansion of the growth market.

文摘Nano-optics is an emergent research field in physics that appeared in the 1980s,which deals with light–matter optical interactions at the nanometer scale.In early studies of nano-optics,the main concern focus is to obtain higher optical resolution over the diffraction limit.The researches of near-field imaging and spectroscopy based on scanning near-field optical microscopy(SNOM)are developed.The exploration of improving SNOM probe for near-field detection leads to the emergence of surface plasmons.In the sense of resolution and wider application,there has been a significant transition from seeking higher resolution microscopy to plasmonic near-field modulations in the nano-optics community during the nano-optic development.Nowadays,studies of nano-optics prefer the investigation of plasmonics in different material systems.In this article,the history of the development of near-field optics is briefly reviewed.The difficulties of conventional SNOM to achieve higher resolution are discussed.As an alternative solution,surface plasmons have shown the advantages of higher resolution,wider application,and flexible nano-optical modulation for new devices.The typical studies in different periods are introduced and characteristics of nano-optics in each stage are analyzed.In this way,the evolution progress from near-field optics to plasmonics of nano-optics research is presented.The future development of nano-optics is discussed then.

文摘Optical imaging systems have greatly extended human visual capabilities,enabling the observation and understanding of diverse phenomena.Imaging technologies span a broad spectrum of wavelengths from x-ray to radio frequencies and impact research activities and our daily lives.Traditional glass lenses are fabricated through a series of complex processes,while polymers offer versatility and ease of production.However,modern applications often require complex lens assemblies,driving the need for miniaturization and advanced designs with micro-and nanoscale features to surpass the capabilities of traditional fabrication methods.Three-dimensional(3D)printing,or additive manufacturing,presents a solution to these challenges with benefits of rapid prototyping,customized geometries,and efficient production,particularly suited for miniaturized optical imaging devices.Various 3D printing methods have demonstrated advantages over traditional counterparts,yet challenges remain in achieving nanoscale resolutions.Two-photon polymerization lithography(TPL),a nanoscale 3D printing technique,enables the fabrication of intricate structures beyond the optical diffraction limit via the nonlinear process of two-photon absorption within liquid resin.It offers unprecedented abilities,e.g.alignment-free fabrication,micro-and nanoscale capabilities,and rapid prototyping of almost arbitrary complex 3D nanostructures.In this review,we emphasize the importance of the criteria for optical performance evaluation of imaging devices,discuss material properties relevant to TPL,fabrication techniques,and highlight the application of TPL in optical imaging.As the first panoramic review on this topic,it will equip researchers with foundational knowledge and recent advancements of TPL for imaging optics,promoting a deeper understanding of the field.By leveraging on its high-resolution capability,extensive material range,and true 3D processing,alongside advances in materials,fabrication,and design,we envisage disruptive solutions to current challenges and a promising incorporation of TPL in future optical imaging applications.

文摘The parafoveal area,with its high concentration of photoreceptors andfine retinal capillaries,is crucial for central vision and often exhibits early signs of pathological changes.The current adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope(AOSLO)provides an excellent tool to acquire accurate and detailed information about the parafoveal area with cellular resolution.However,limited by the scanning speed of two-dimensional scanning,thefield of view(FOV)in the AOSLO system was usually less than or equal to 2,and the stitching for the parafoveal area required dozens of images,which was time-consuming and laborious.Unfortunately,almost half of patients are unable to obtain stitched images because of their poorfixation.To solve this problem,we integrate AO technology with the line-scan imaging method to build an adaptive optics line scanning ophthalmoscope(AOLSO)system with a larger FOV.In the AOLSO,afocal spherical mirrors in pairs are nonplanar arranged and the distance and angle between optical elements are optimized to minimize the aberrations,two cylinder lenses are orthogonally placed before the imaging sensor to stretch the point spread function(PSF)for sufficiently digitizing light energy.Captured human retinal images show the whole parafoveal area with 55FOV,60 Hz frame rate and cellular resolutions.Take advantage of the 5FOV of the AOLSO,only 9 frames of the retina are captured with several minutes to stitch a montage image with an FOV of 99,in which photoreceptor counting is performed within approximately 5eccentricity.The AOLSO system not only provides cellular resolution but also has the capability to capture the parafoveal region in a single frame,which offers great potential for noninvasive studying of the parafoveal area.
文摘Our Portable Adaptive Optics(PAO)system designed for high-contrast imaging of exoplanets with current 2-4 m class telescopes achieves a correction speed of nearly 1000 Hz,utilizing a Shack-Hartmann Wave Front Sensor(WFS)in a 9×9 sub-aperture configuration.As we look towards adapting the PAO system for larger telescopes,an increase in the number of sub-apertures in the WFS and enhanced precision in wave front detection are imperative.Originally programmed in LabVIEW,our initial PAO software is based on a traditional centroid calculation module for nighttime wave front sensing and lacks adaptive processing of background noise.To address these limitations and to boost the PAO system's performance and accuracy in wave front detection,we propose a compressive neural network(Th-Net)combined with a specialized hybrid parallel programming approach for wave front detection.Our experimental results indicate that this hybrid parallel technique and Th-Net significantly enhance the PAO system's operational speed and wave front detection precision under uneven background noise.This work paves the way so that a duplicable and low-cost PAO system can be used for direct imaging of exoplanets with large telescopes.

文摘We present preliminary investigations of a potential optics system for wideband X-ray telescopes.The optical design adopts the conical approximation of the Wolter-I configuration and a combination of multilayer coatings and silicon pore optics.The total number of mirror modules is 79,distributed in 8 rows with the radii at the intersection plane between 250 mm and 500 mm.The optimization of the total effective area using the figure of merits method suggests that the focal length is 30 m and the mirror coating is a combination of the W/Si and Pt/C multilayers.This fulfills the on-axis effective area requirements of 2000 cm^(2) at 10 keV and 300 cm^(2) at 60 keV and provides a broad energy response between 3 keV and 78.4 keV.With the current geometry and coating compositions,we implement a mass modeling of the telescope in Geant4 to predict mirror performances via the ray-tracing algorithm,including the angular resolution and effective area.With the presumed metrological data as input,this can provide precision and finishing requirements for the manufacture of optics.This work demonstrates the feasibility of combining multilayer coatings and silicon pore optics for potential use in wideband X-ray telescopes and advances the development and progress of such missions.

文摘We present what we believe is the first conjugate adaptive optics(AO)extension that can be retrofitted into a commercial microscope by being positioned between the camera port and the image sensor.The extension features a deformable phase plate(DPP),a refractive wavefront modulator,and indirect wavefront sensing to form a completely in-line architecture.This allows the axial position of the DPP to be optimized by maximizing an image quality metric,which is a cumbersome task with deformable mirrors as the correction element.We demonstrate the performance of the system on a Zeiss AxioVert 200M microscope equipped with a 20×0.75 NA air objective.To simulate sample-induced complex aberrations,transparent custom-made arbitrary phase plates were introduced between the sample and the objective.We demonstrate that the extension can provide high-quality full-field correction even for large aberrations,when the DPP is placed at the conjugate plane of the phase plates.We also demonstrate that both the DPP position and its surface profile can be optimized blindly,which can pave the way for plug-and-play conjugate-AO systems.

文摘We propose a joint look-up-table(LUT)-based nonlinear predistortion and digital resolution enhancement scheme to achieve high-speed and low-cost optical interconnects using low-resolution digital-to-analog converters(DACs).The LUT-based predistortion is employed to mitigate the patterndependent effect(PDE)of a semiconductor optical amplifier(SOA),while the digital resolution enhancer(DRE)is utilized to shape the quantization noise,lowering the requirement for the resolution of DAC.We experimentally demonstrate O-band intensity modulation and direct detection(IM/DD)transmission of 124-GBd 4∕6-level pulse-amplitude modulation ePAMT-4∕6 and 112-GBd PAM-8 signals over a 2-km standard single-mode fiber(SSMF)with 3∕3.5∕4-bit DACs.In the case of 40-km SSMF transmission with an SOAbased preamplifier,124-GBd on-off-keying(OOK)/PAM-3/PAM-4 signals are successfully transmitted with 1.5∕2∕3-bit DACs.To the best of our knowledge,we have achieved the highest net data rates of 235.3-Gb∕s PAM-4,289.7-Gb∕s PAM-6,and 294.7 Gb∕s PAM-8 signals over 2-km SSMF,as well as 117.6-Gb∕s OOK,173.8-Gb∕s PAM-3,and−231.8 Gb∕s PAM-4 signals over 40-km SSMF,employing low-resolution DACs.The experimental results reveal that the joint LUT-based predistortion and DRE effectively mitigate the PDE and improve the signal-to-quantization noise ratio by shaping the noise.The proposed scheme can provide a powerful solution for low-cost IM/DD optical interconnects beyond 200 Gb∕s.
