Femtosecond laser-induced modifications and self-organization in complex glass systems

Gözden Torun

Ultrashort laser pulses, i.e., pulses emitted shorter than a picosecond, can tailor material properties by introducing permanent modifications locally in three dimensions. Remarkably, under a certain exposure condition, these modifications are accompanied ...

Estimating Nonplanar Flow from 2D Motion-blurred Widefield Microscopy Images via Deep Learning

Michael Stefan Daniel Liebling, Adrian Shajkofci

Optical flow is a method aimed at predicting the movement velocity of any pixel in the image and is used in medicine and biology to estimate flow of particles in organs or organelles. However, a precise optical flow measurement requires images taken at hig ...

Structured light generation by refractive-diffractive micro optical array illuminators

Maryam Yousefi

Structured light generation having broad applications in different optical fields, is the topic of this thesis. Our structured light generation strategy is based on applying periodic microoptical elements at the refraction-diffraction limit, under a focuse ...

ON THE DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION OF WIDE ANGLE DIFFRACTIVE OPTICAL ELEMENTS

Dong Cheon Kim

Diffractive optical elements (DOEs) which consist of microstructure surface relief permit the generation of the spatial distribution of light beams by using a single element. Due to their compact size, design flexibility, and mass productivity, they are us ...

Phase calibration of a basic bright-field microscope for 3D metrology of transparent samples at the nanoscale

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Daniel Migliozzi

Optical retrieval of the structure of transparent objects at the nano-scale requires adapted methods capable of probing their interaction with suitable light. Scattering events, for instance, depend on the content and the arrangement of the medium encounte ...

Correction of spherical surface measurements by confocal microscopy

Toralf Scharf, Wilfried Noell, Jeremy Béguelin

Refractive microlenses are nowadays widely used in optical systems. Characterizing their surface is essential to ensure their quality and to optimize their fabrication process. This is realized by optical surface profilers thanks to their vertical resoluti ...

Optical characterization of high numerical aperture microlenses for quality assessment and fabrication process optimization

Toralf Scharf, Wilfried Noell, Jeremy Béguelin

Accurate characterization of high numerical aperture aspheric microlenses currently is a nonstandard procedure that remains an open challenge. Here, we present and discuss a characterization method based on interferometric and point spread function measure ...

Realistic Constrained Multi-Objective Optimization Benchmark Problems from Design

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Cyril Picard

Multi-objective optimization is increasingly used in engineering to design new systems and to identify design trade-offs. Yet, design problems often have objective functions and constraints that are expensive and highly non-linear. Combinations of these fe ...

3D nanometrology of transparent objects by phase calibration of a basic bright-field microscope for multiple illumination apertures

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Daniel Migliozzi

Optical retrieval of the structure of transparent objects at the nanoscale requires adapted techniques capable of probing their interaction with light. Here, we considered a method based on calibration of the defocusing with partially coherent illumination ...

Raman imaging through multimode sapphire fiber

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Damien Claude-Marie Loterie, Georgia Konstantinou, Sunan Deng

We report on a sapphire fiber Raman imaging probe's use for challenging applications where access is severely restricted. Small-dimension Raman probes have been developed previously for various clinical applications because they show great capability for d ...

Custom Adapter For Extended Field-Of-View Microsphere-Based Scanning Super-Resolution Microscopy

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Gergely Huszka

We present a dielectric microsphere-based super resolution optical microscope that can image a sample beyond the classical diffraction limit [1]. The super resolution imaging capability of a single microsphere normally is restricted to an area of similar t ...

Compact lensless digital holography

Manon Rostykus

Microscopy is of high interest for biology since it allows imaging features that are too small to be seen with naked eyes. However, cells are mostly transparent to visible and infrared light which makes it difficult to see with a traditional microscope. To ...
