Shaping the Amplitude and Phase of Laser Beams by Using a Phase-only Spatial Light Modulator08:39

Shaping the Amplitude and Phase of Laser Beams by Using a Phase-only Spatial Light Modulator

10.3K
We show how to encode the complex field of laser beams by using a single phase element. A common-path interferometer is employed to mix the phase information displayed into a phase-only spatial light modulator to finally retrieve the desired complex field pattern at the output of an optical imaging...

Lensfree On-chip Tomographic Microscopy Employing Multi-angle Illumination and Pixel Super-resolution

11.9K
Lensfree optical tomography is a three-dimensional microscopy technique that offers a spatial resolution of <1 μm × <1 μm × <3 μm in x, y and z dimensions, respectively, over a large imaging-volume of 15-100 mm3, which can be particularly useful for integration with lab-on-a-chip...

Amplitude-Modulated Electrodeformation to Evaluate Mechanical Fatigue of Biological Cells

2.1K
Presented here is a protocol for mechanical fatigue testing in the case of human red blood cells using an amplitude-modulated electrodeformation approach. This general approach can be used to measure the systematic changes in morphological and biomechanical characteristics of biological cells in a suspension from cyclic deformation.

Bioinorganic chemistry is the field of study that investigates the role that metals play in biology. Approximately half of all proteins contain metals and it is estimated that up to one third of all proteins rely on metal-containing active sites to function. Proteins that feature metals, called metalloproteins, play a vital role in a variety of cell functions that are necessary for life. Metalloproteins...

    Area of Science:

    • Optics
    • Photonics
    • Liquid Crystal Displays

    Background:

    • Twisted nematic LCDs are crucial for optics but often struggle with independent phase and amplitude modulation.

    • To propose and demonstrate a high spatial resolution light-synthesis structure for full-complex amplitude modulation using a twisted nematic LCD.
    • To achieve independent control over both the phase and amplitude of light.

    Main Methods:

    • The proposed structure utilizes sparse lateral-shift pixel arrays in both x and y directions.
    • It forms images using superpixels composed of adjacent pixel pairs, effectively halving spatial resolution.
    • Experimental validation of precise amplitude and phase control was performed.

    Main Results:

    • Demonstrated a functional light-synthesis structure capable of full-complex amplitude modulation.
    • Achieved independent modulation of both light phase and amplitude using a twisted nematic LCD.
    • The spatial resolution was reduced by half, maintaining appropriate image quality for the technique.
