Phase resolved characterization of nanoscale features in optical microstructures

Michail Symeonidis

In this study, we apply interferometric microscopy to study the phase, alongside the intensity, of the light field transmitted through a wide variety of samples. Additionally, we conduct those interferometric measurements at different wavelengths within th ...

Inverse Analysis of Radiative Flux Maps for the Characterization of High Flux Sources

Sophia Haussener, Clemens Gregor Suter, Gaël Jean Clément Levêque

The reconstruction of the angular and spatial intensity distribution from radiative flux maps measured in high flux solar simulators or optical concentrators is an ill-posed inverse problem requiring special solution strategies. We aimed at providing a sol ...

Computational Super-Sectioning for Single-Slice Structured-Illumination Microscopy

Michaël Unser, Emmanuel Emilien Louis Soubies

While structured-illumination microscopy (SIM) is inherently a three-dimensional (3-D) technique, many biological questions can be addressed from the acquisition of a single focal plane with high lateral resolution. Unfortunately, the single-slice reconstr ...

Heterogeneous Target Assignment to Robotic Fiber Positioner Systems

Denis Gillet, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Matin Macktoobian

The target assignment methods applied to robotic fiber positioners are only applicable to homogeneous sets of targets to be observed. However, different batches of robotic fiber positioners available at the focal plane of a telescope can be simultaneously ...

Stepwise Luneburg Lens for Bloch Surface Waves

Myun Sik Kim, Babak Vosoughi Lahijani

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 ...

Geometric calibration of Colour and Stereo Surface Imaging System of ESA's Trace Gas Orbiter

François Fleuret, Anton Ivanov, Stepan Tulyakov, Nicolas Thomas, Thomas Weigel

There are many geometric calibration methods for "standard" cameras. These methods, however, cannot be used for the calibration of telescopes with large focal lengths and complex off-axis optics. Moreover, specialized calibration methods for the telescopes ...

Assessing microlens quality based on 3D irradiance measurement at the focal spot area

Toralf Scharf, Wilfried Noell, Jeremy Béguelin, Michail Symeonidis

During the fabrication process of microlenses, characterization is essential for two purposes: evaluate the optical quality of the element and provide surface information feedback for process optimization. However, no technique can fulfill these two object ...

Light refocusing with up-scalable resonant waveguide gratings in confocal prolate spheroid arrangements

Olivier Martin, Benjamin Gallinet, Zdenek Benes, Giorgio Quaranta, Guillaume Basset

Resonant waveguide gratings (RWGs) are thin-film structures, where coupled modesinterfere with the diffracted incoming wave and produce strong angular and spectral filtering. The combination of two finite-length and impedance matched RWGs allows the creati ...

Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Fiber Positioner Production

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib

The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is under construction to measure the expansion history of the Universe using the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation technique. The spectra of 35 million galaxies and quasars over 14000 sq deg will be measured during ...

A smartphone application to determine body length for body weight estimation in children: a prospective clinical trial

Davide Scaramuzza

The aim of this study was to test the feasibility and accuracy of a smartphone application to measure the body length of children using the integrated camera and to evaluate the subsequent weight estimates. A prospective clinical trial of children aged 0–< ...

Scaling effect and its impact on wavelength-scale microlenses

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

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 ...
