Optical phase conjugation of weak signals by using degenerate four-wave mixing
Abstract:
We have measured the conjugation fidelity produced by four-wave mixing in sodium vapor using weak probe beams that were aberrated by simulated atmospheric turbulence. Near-diffraction-limited (1.3 times the diffraction limit) return beams were obtained for both moderate (D/r(0) approximately 10) and strong (D/r(0) approximately 25) simulated turbulence, down to probe-beam pulse energies of 200 pJ. We believe this to be the first systematic study of conjugation fidelity as a function of probe energy.

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...
