Numerical parametric lens for shifting, magnification and complete aberration compensation in digital holographic microscopy

Tristan Colomb, Frédéric Montfort, Stéphane Bourquin, Etienne Cuche, Christian Depeursinge, Pierre Marquet, Nicolas Aspert, Jonas Kühn, Florian Charrière, Mihaela Marian

The concept of numerical parametric lenses (NPL) is introduced to achieve wavefront reconstruction in digital holography. It is shown that operations usually performed by optical components and described in ray geometrical optics, such as image shifting, m ...

WAVE FRONT SENSING METHOD AND APPARATUS

Tristan Colomb, Frédéric Montfort, Stéphane Bourquin, Etienne Cuche, Christian Depeursinge, Pierre Marquet, Nicolas Aspert, Florian Charrière, Mihaela Marian

A new way of mixing instrumental and digital means is described for the general field of wave front sensing. The present invention describes the use, the definition and the utility of digital operators, called digital wave front operators (DWFO) or ... A n ...

Parallel broadband fluorescent light source for optical coherence tomography

Stéphane Bourquin, René Salathé, Theo Lasser

We present a new light source for parallel Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) based on multiple waveguides written in Ti:sapphire. Each channel can generate a spectrum of 174 nm bandwidth centered at 772 nm, with an optical power on sample of 30 mu W. A sy ...

Multiple scattering in optical coherence tomography. II. Experimental and theoretical investigation of cross talk in wide-field optical coherence tomography

Stéphane Bourquin, Boris Clément Karamata, Marcel Leutenegger, Theo Lasser, Markus Laubscher

We present a comprehensive study of multiple-scattering effects in wide-field optical coherence tomography (OCT) realized with spatially coherent illumination. Imaging a sample made of a cleaved mirror embedded in an aqueous suspension of microspheres reve ...

Multiple scattering in optical coherence tomography. I. Investigation and modeling

Stéphane Bourquin, Boris Clément Karamata, Marcel Leutenegger, Theo Lasser, Markus Laubscher

We present a new model of optical coherence tomography (OCT) taking into account multiple scattering. A theoretical analysis and experimental investigation reveals that in OCT, despite multiple scattering, the field backscattered from the sample is general ...

Low-coherence interferometry based on customized detector arrays

Stéphane Bourquin

Many biological tissues and a lot of technical objects of interest are to a certain degree transparent to light in the visible and near infrared wavelength range of the electromagnetic spectrum. Nevertheless, it has not been possible for a long time to cre ...
