文摘Liquid crystal Pacharatnam-Berry phase optical elements(PBOEs)have found promising applications in augmented reality and virtual reality because of their slim formfactor,lightweight,and high optical efficiency.However,chromatic aberration remains a serious longstanding problem for diffractive optics,hindering their broader adoption.To overcome the chromatic aberrations for red,green and blue(RGB)light sources,in this paper,we propose a counterintuitive multi-twist structure to achieve narrowband PBOEs without crosstalk,which plays a vital role to eliminate the chromatic aberration.The performance of our designed and fabricated narrowband Pacharatnam-Berry lenses(PBLs)aligns well with our simulation results.Furthermore,in a feasibility demonstration experiment using a laser projector,our proposed PBL system indeed exhibits a diminished chromatic aberration as compared to a broadband PBL.Additionally,polarization raytracing is implemented to demonstrate the versatility of the multi-twist structure for designing any RGB wavelengths with high contrast ratios.This analysis explores the feasibility of using RGB laser lines and quantum dot light-emitting diodes.Overall,our approach enables high optical efficiency,low fabrication complexity,and high degree of design freedom to accommodate any liquid crystal material and RGB light sources,holding immense potential for widespread applications of achromatic PBOEs.

文摘Position sensitive device(PSD)sensor is a vital optical element that is mainly used in tracking systems for visible light communication(VLC).Recently,a new reconfigurable PSD architecture emerged.The proposed architecture makes the PSD perform more functions by modifying its architecture.As the PSD is mainly formed of an array of photodiodes.The primary concept involves employing transistors to alternate between the operating modes of the photodiodes(photoconductive and photovoltaic).Additionally,alternating among output pins can be done based on the required function.This paper presents the mathematical modeling and simulation of a reconfigurable-multifunctional optical sensor which can perform energy harvesting and data acquisition,as well as positioning,which is not available in the traditional PSDs.Simulation using the MATLAB software tool was achieved to demonstrate the modeling.The simulation results confirmed the validity of the mathematical modeling and proved that the modified sensor architecture,as depicted by the equations,accurately describes its behavior.The proposed sensor is expected to extend the battery's lifecycle,reduce its physical size,and increase the integration and functionality of the system.The presented sensor might be used in free space optical(FSO)communication like cube satellites or even in underwater wireless optical communication(UWOC).

文摘Optical singularities are topological defects of electromagnetic fields;they include phase singularity in scalar fields,polarization singularity in vector fields,and three-dimensional(3D)singularities such as optical skyrmions.The exploitation of photonic microstructures to generate and manipulate optical singularities has attracted wide research interest in recent years,with many photonic microstructures having been devised to this end.Accompanying these designs,scattered phenomenological theories have been proposed to expound the working mechanisms behind individual designs.In this work,instead of focusing on a specific type of microstructure,we concentrate on the most common geometric features of these microstructures—namely,symmetries—and revisit the process of generating optical singularities in microstructures from a symmetry viewpoint.By systematically employing the projection operator technique in group theory,we develop a widely applicable theoretical scheme to explore optical singularities in microstructures with rosette(i.e.,rotational and reflection)symmetries.Our scheme agrees well with previously reported works and further reveals that the eigenmodes of a symmetric microstructure can support multiplexed phase singularities in different components,such as out-of-plane,radial,azimuthal,and left-and right-handed circular components.Based on these phase singularities,more complicated optical singularities may be synthesized,including C points,V points,L lines,Néel-and bubble-type optical skyrmions,and optical lattices,to name a few.We demonstrate that the topological invariants associated with optical singularities are protected by the symmetries of the microstructure.Lastly,based on symmetry arguments,we formulate a so-called symmetry matching condition to clarify the excitation of a specific type of optical singularity.Our work establishes a unified theoretical framework to explore optical singularities in photonic microstructures with symmetries,shedding light on the symmetry origin of multidimensional and multiplexed optical singularities and providing a symmetry perspective for exploring many singularity-related effects in optics and photonics.
文摘In this study,we design and numerically investigate a novel all optical D flip-flop(AODFF)based on linear photonic crystal(LPhC)structure that is composed of optical waveguides using the finite difference time domain(FDTD)method.The proposed structure has the hexagonal close packed of 16×20 circular rods that are suspended in the air substrate with a lattice constant of 606 nm.The plane wave expansion(PWE)method is used to obtain the band diagram for AODFF at an operating wavelength of 1550 nm.The proposed optical flip-flop achieves a low delay time of 0.2 ps and a high contrast ratio(CR)of 10.33 dB.The main advantage of this design is that the input power as low as 1 mW/μm^(2) is sufficient for its operation,since no nonlinear rods are included.In addition,the footprint of the proposed AODFF is 100μm^(2),which is smaller compared to the structures reported in the literature,and it has a fast switching frequency of 5 Tbit/s.

文摘In recent years,machine learning(ML)techniques have been shown to be effective in accelerating the development process of optoelectronic devices.However,as"black box"models,they have limited theoretical interpretability.In this work,we leverage symbolic regression(SR)technique for discovering the explicit symbolic relationship between the structure of the optoelectronic Fabry-Perot(FP)laser and its optical field distribution,which greatly improves model transparency compared to ML.We demonstrated that the expressions explored through SR exhibit lower errors on the test set compared to ML models,which suggests that the expressions have better fitting and generalization capabilities.
文摘AIM:To investigate the impact of preoperative anterior corneal topographic parameters on the morphology of the postoperative effective optical zone(EOZ)in patients undergoing keratorefractive lenticule extraction(KLEx)and wavefront-guided LASIK(WG-LASIK).METHODS:This retrospective study included 310 eyes from patients who underwent either KLEx(via small incision lenticule extraction,171 eyes)or WG-LASIK(139 eyes).Patients were stratified into subgroups based on the median values of spherical equivalent(SE)and anterior corneal topographic parameters.Postoperative EOZ parameters were measured 1mo after surgery and compared across subgroups.Correlation analysis and multivariable linear regression analysis were performed to explore the associations between preoperative anterior corneal topographic parameters and EOZ parameters.RESULTS:A total of 310 eyes were included(KLEx:171 eyes from 88 patients;WG-LASIK:139 eyes from 82 patients).The mean age was 30.65±5.67y in the KLEx cohort and 29.06±5.94y in the WG-LASIK cohort.In the KLEx cohort,SE,preoperative mean keratometry(Km),steep keratometry(K2),and anterior corneal astigmatism(K2-K1)were positively correlated with the postoperative optical zone reduction ratio(RR=EOZ/planned optical zone×100%;all P<0.01).Multivariable regression identified SE[β=0.027,95%confidence interval(CI):0.022-0.032,P<0.001],Km(β=0.009,95%CI:0.002-0.016,P=0.014),and anterior corneal astigmatism(β=0.031,95%CI:0.013-0.049,P<0.001)as significant predictors of RR(R²=0.456,P<0.001).In the WG-LASIK cohort,SE was positively correlated with RR(P<0.01);K2 and anterior corneal astigmatism were positively correlated with both RR(P<0.05)and EOZ eccentricity(P<0.01).Multivariable regression showed SE(β=0.015,95%CI:0.007-0.023,P<0.001)and anterior corneal astigmatism(β=0.029,95%CI:0.012-0.047,P=0.001)were significant predictors of RR(R²=0.121,P<0.001).CONCLUSION:Preoperative anterior corneal topographic parameters,particularly anterior corneal astigmatism,significantly affect postoperative EOZ morphology in both KLEx and WG-LASIK.Additionally,Km is a predictor of EOZ reduction specifically in KLEx.

文摘Optical solitons,as self-sustaining waveforms in a nonlinear medium where dispersion and nonlinear effects are balanced,have key applications in ultrafast laser systems and optical communications.Physics-informed neural networks(PINN)provide a new way to solve the nonlinear Schrodinger equation describing the soliton evolution by fusing data-driven and physical constraints.However,the grid point sampling strategy of traditional PINN suffers from high computational complexity and unstable gradient flow,which makes it difficult to capture the physical details efficiently.In this paper,we propose a residual-based adaptive multi-distribution(RAMD)sampling method to optimize the PINN training process by dynamically constructing a multi-modal loss distribution.With a 50%reduction in the number of grid points,RAMD significantly reduces the relative error of PINN and,in particular,optimizes the solution error of the(2+1)Ginzburg–Landau equation from 4.55%to 1.98%.RAMD breaks through the lack of physical constraints in the purely data-driven model by the innovative combination of multi-modal distribution modeling and autonomous sampling control for the design of all-optical communication devices.RAMD provides a high-precision numerical simulation tool for the design of all-optical communication devices,optimization of nonlinear laser devices,and other studies.

文摘The optical soliton characteristics of GaSb-based~2μm wavelength integrated optical chips have broad application prospects in optoelectronic fields such as optical communications,infrared countermeasures,and gas environment monitoring.In the research of two-section integrated optical chips,more attention is paid to their passive mode-locked characteristics.The ability of its structure to generate stable soliton transmission has not yet been studied,which will limit its further application in high-performance near-mid infrared optoelectronic technology.In this paper,we design and prepare a GaSb-based~2μm wave-length two-section integrated semiconductor laser chip structure,and test and analyze its related properties of soliton,includ-ing power−injection current−voltage(P−I−V),temperature and mode-locked characteristics.Experimental results show that the chip can achieve stable mode-locked operation at nearly~2μm wavelength and present the working characteristics of near opti-cal soliton states and multi-peak optical soliton states.By comparing and analyzing the measured optical pulse sequence curve with the numerical fitting based on the pure fourth order soliton approximation solution,it is confirmed that the two-section integrated optical chip structure can generate stable transmission of multi-peak optical soliton.This provides a research direc-tion for developing near-mid infrared mode-locked integrated optical chips with high-performance property of optical soliton.
文摘AIM:To evaluate the choroidopathy in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE)using enhanced depth imaging spectral domain optical coherence tomography(EDI SD-OCT)and optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA).METHODS:A total of 74 patients with SLE and 40 healthy volunteers were included in this cross-sectional study.SLE patients were further divided into three subgroups based on clinical and blood biochemistry findings.Ocular parameters obtained on ophthalmologic examination and optical imaging(EDI SD-OCT and OCTA)included the best corrected distance visual acuity(logMAR CDVA),subfoveal choroidal thickness(SCT),choroidal vascularity index(CVI)and vessel density(VD)of superficial capillary plexus(SCP)and deep capillary plexus(DCP).RESULTS:SLE patients had significantly lower values for CVI and VD of DCP(DVD)than control subjects.Amongst SLE patients,gender and chloroquine dose were found to be independent determinants of CVI while age predicted SCT.Steroid dose was a significant predictor for foveal VD of SCP(SVD),chloroquine dose for parafoveal SVD,gender for total DVD,and gender and steroid dose for perifoveal DVD.No correlation of logMAR CDVA and SCT was noted between SLE patients and control subjects.No correlation of SCT was noted with disease duration,Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index(SLEDAI)score,hydroxychloroquine(HCQ)dose or steroid dose.No correlation of CVI was noted with patient age,disease duration,SLEDAI score,HCQ dose or steroid dose.No significant difference was noted between SLE subgroups in terms of any of the ocular parameters studied.CONCLUSION:The findings reveal the presence of ocular findings suggestive of early onset choroidopathy on EDI SD-OCT and OCTA in SLE patients,in the absence of ocular manifestations or active disease.

文摘Multi-band optical networks are a potential technology for increasing network capacity.However,the strong interference and non-uniformity between wavelengths in multi-band optical networks have become a bottleneck restricting the transmission capacity of multi-band optical networks.To overcome these challenges,it is particularly important to implement optical power optimization targeting wavelength differences.Therefore,based on the generalized Gaussian noise model,we first formulate an optimization model for the problems of routing,modulation format,wavelength,and power allocation in C+L+S multi-band optical networks.Our objective function is to maximize the average link capacity of the network while ensuring that the Optical Signal-to-Noise(OSNR)threshold of the service request is not exceeded.Next,we propose a NonLinear Interferenceaware(NLI-aware)routing,modulation format,wavelength,and power allocation algorithm.Finally,we conduct simulations under different test conditions.The simulation results indicate that our algorithm can effectively reduce the blocking probability by 23.5%and improve the average link capacity by 3.78%in C+L+S multi-band optical networks.

文摘We present a compact optical delay line(ODL)with wide-range continuous tunability on thin-film lithium niobate platform.The proposed device integrates an unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometer(MZI)architecture with dual tunable couplers,where each coupler comprises two 2×2 multimode interferometers and a MZI phase-tuning section.Experimental results demonstrate continuous delay tuning from 0 to 293 ps through synchronized control of coupling coefficients,corresponding to a 4 cm path difference between interferometer arms.The measured delay range exhibits excellent agreement with theoretical predictions derived from ODL waveguide parameters.This result addresses critical challenges in integrated photonic systems that require precise temporal control,particularly for applications in optical communications and quantum information processing,where a wide tuning range is paramount.

文摘Electron cyclotron emission imaging(ECEI)is a critical diagnostic tool for measuring two-dimensional electron temperature fluctuations.The optical system,a key component of the ECEI diagnostic,determines the spatial resolution,field of view,and imaging performance of electron temperature fluctuations.In this study,comprehensive laboratory tests and characterizations of the optical system,including the local oscillator(LO)coupling optics and the radio frequency(RF)receiving optics,were conducted to ensure optimal performance during plasma discharge experiments.Laboratory testing of the LO optics revealed that the light intensity at the edge channels reaches 36%of that at the central channels;however,both are sufficient to effectively drive the down-converted mixers.The RF optics focus covers the entire non-harmonic overlap region,corresponding to a normalized plasma minor radius range of ρ=−0.2 to 0.9,and offers three zoom modes:narrow,medium,and wide,with poloidal resolutions of 1.5 cm,1.8 cm,and 2.1 cm,respectively.The characterizations for these zoom modes align well with the optical design specifications.It was observed that the imaging surfaces of all zoom modes are exceptionally flat,indicating high-quality ECEI measurements with excellent spatial resolution.The LO lens,focusing lens,and zoom adjustment lens are capable of remote independent control,which enhances the operational flexibility of the system.Preliminary analyses conducted with the ECEI system successfully captured the two-dimensional structure and spatiotemporal evolution of phenomena such as sawtooth crashes,demonstrating the robust capability of the system to provide valuable insights into plasma dynamics.

文摘Mitochondria play a crucial role in the physiological functions and energy metabolism of neurons,which can help in the understanding of complex biochemical reactions associated with various neurodegenerative diseases.Neurons,being highly differentiated terminal cells,require a greater number of mitochondria than ordinary cells to generate significant amounts of ATP,which is necessary for the growth of differentiated neuronal structures like axons and dendrites and the transmission of electrical signals along neuronal axons.Advancements in imaging technology,electrophysiology,and fluorescence targeting labeling have facilitated the study of mitochondrial movements in neurons and axons.However,disordered mitochondrial movements can hinder their analysis and characterization.Thus,it becomes necessary to artificially control their transport.Here,we demonstrate the utilization of scanning optical tweezers(SOTs)on the stable trapping and precise transport of soma or axon of neurons and enable.The presented method provides an optical approach to the control of mitochondria or other organelles in complex and variable biological environment.

文摘Integrating the magneto-optical effect into a waveguide-based photonic device becomes more and more interesting.In the work,the planar optical waveguide firstly was prepared in a terbium gallium garnet crystal(TGG)via the proton implantation with the energy of 4×10^(-1)MeV and the fluence of 6×10^(8)ions/μm^(2).Subsequently,a femtosecond laser with a central wavelength of 800 nm and a power of 3 mW was used to ablate the surface of the planar waveguide,forming the ridge optical waveguide.The dark-mode curve of the planar waveguide was measured by a prism coupling technique.The top-view morphology of the ridge waveguide was observed via a Nikon microscope.The mode field distributions of the planar and ridge waveguides were obtained by an end-face coupling system,and the propagation losses of the two waveguides were measured to be 2.26 dB/cm and 2.58 dB/cm,respectively.The Verdet constants were measured to be-72.7°/T·cm for the TGG substrate and-60.7°/T·cm for the ridge waveguide.The TGG waveguides have a potential in the fabrication of magneto-optical waveguide devices.
