Introduction to Electromagnetics; Maxwell's Equations and Derivation of the Wave Equation for Light; Polarization Justificat The 3D wave equation Plane wave Spherical wave MIT 2.71/2.710 03/11/09 wk6-b-13 Planar and Spherical Wavefronts Planar wavefront (plane wave): The wave phase is constant along a planar surface (the wavefront). As time evolves, the wavefronts propagate at the wave speed without changing; we say that the wavefronts are invariant to propagation in this case. Spherical wavefront (spherical wave): The wave phase is constant along a spherical surface (the wavefront). As time evolves, the wavefronts propagate at the wave speed and expand outwards while preserving the wave’s energy. MIT 2.71/2.710 03/11/09 wk6-b-14 Wavefronts, rays, and wave vectors Rays are: k 1) normals to the wavefront surfaces 2) trajectories of “particles of light” Wave vectors: At each point on the wavefront, we may assign a normal vector k This is known as the wave vector; k it magnitude k is the wave number and it is defined as k MIT 2.71/2.710 03/11/09 wk6-b-15 3D wave vector from the wave equation wavefront x kx k wave vector kz z ky y MIT 2.71/2.710 03/11/09 wk6 -b-16 3D wave vector and the Descartes sphere The wave vector represents the momentum of the wave. Consistent with Geometrical Optics, its magnitude is constrained to be proportional to the refractive index n (2π/λfree is a normalization factor) In wave optics, the Descartes sphere is also known as Ewald sphere or simply as the k-sphere.

To correct for the distortions caused by wind flow or small varying temperature regions in the at- mosphere, the new generation of Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs) uses Adaptive Optics (AO) techniques. An AO system consists of wavefront sensors, control algo- rithms and deformable mirrors. A wavefront sensor measures incoming distorted wave- fronts, the control algorithm links the wavefront sensor measurements to the mirror actuator commands, and deformable mirrors mechanically correct for the atmospheric aberrations in real-time. Reconstruction of the unknown wavefront from given sensor measurements is an Inverse Problem. Many instruments currently under development for ELT-sized telescopes have pyramid wavefront sensors included as the primary option. For this sensor type, the relation between the intensity of the incoming light and sensor data is non-linear. The high number of correcting elements to be controlled in real-time or the segmented primary mirrors of the ELTs lead to unprecedented challenges when designing the control al- gorithms.

  • Wavefront Coding Fluorescence Microscopy Using High Aperture Lenses
    Wavefront Coding Fluorescence Microscopy Using High Aperture Lenses Matthew R. Arnison*, Carol J. Cogswelly, Colin J. R. Sheppard*, Peter Törökz * University of Sydney, Australia University of Colorado, U. S. A. y Imperial College, U. K. z 1 Extended Depth of Field Microscopy In recent years live cell fluorescence microscopy has become increasingly important in biological and medical studies. This is largely due to new genetic engineering techniques which allow cell features to grow their own fluorescent markers. A pop- ular example is green fluorescent protein. This avoids the need to stain, and thereby kill, a cell specimen before taking fluorescence images, and thus provides a major new method for observing live cell dynamics. With this new opportunity come new challenges. Because in earlier days the process of staining killed the cells, microscopists could do little additional harm by squashing the preparation to make it flat, thereby making it easier to image with a high resolution, shallow depth of field lens. In modern live cell fluorescence imag- ing, the specimen may be quite thick (in optical terms). Yet a single 2D image per time–step may still be sufficient for many studies, as long as there is a large depth of field as well as high resolution. Light is a scarce resource for live cell fluorescence microscopy. To image rapidly changing specimens the microscopist needs to capture images quickly. One of the chief constraints on imaging speed is the light intensity. Increasing the illumination will result in faster acquisition, but can affect specimen behaviour through heating, or reduce fluorescent intensity through photobleaching.

  • Adaptive Optics: an Introduction Claire E
    1 Adaptive Optics: An Introduction Claire E. Max I. BRIEF OVERVIEW OF ADAPTIVE OPTICS Adaptive optics is a technology that removes aberrations from optical systems, through use of one or more deformable mirrors which change their shape to compensate for the aberrations. In the case of adaptive optics (hereafter AO) for ground-based telescopes, the main application is to remove image blurring due to turbulence in the Earth's atmosphere, so that telescopes on the ground can "see" as clearly as if they were in space. Of course space telescopes have the great advantage that they can obtain images and spectra at wavelengths that are not transmitted by the atmosphere. This has been exploited to great effect in ultra-violet bands, at near-infrared wavelengths that are not in the atmospheric "windows" at J, H, and K bands, and for the mid- and far-infrared. However since it is much more difficult and expensive to launch the largest telescopes into space instead of building them on the ground, a very fruitful synergy has emerged in which images and low-resolution spectra obtained with space telescopes such as HST are followed up by adaptive- optics-equipped ground-based telescopes with larger collecting area. Astronomy is by no means the only application for adaptive optics. Beginning in the late 1990's, AO has been applied with great success to imaging the living human retina (Porter 2006). Many of the most powerful lasers are using AO to correct for thermal distortions in their optics. Recently AO has been applied to biological microscopy and deep-tissue imaging (Kubby 2012).

  • Shack–Hartmann Wavefront Sensor with Array of Phase Coded Masks
    Shack–Hartmann wavefront sensor with array of phase coded masks NITIN DUBEY,* RAVI KUMAR, JOSEPH ROSEN School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, P.O. Box 653, Beer-Sheva 8410501, Israel *Corresponding author: [email protected] Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensors (SHWS) are generally used to measure the wavefront curvature of light beams. Measurement accuracy and the sensitivity of these sensors are important factors for better wavefront sensing. In this study, we demonstrate a new type of SHWS with better measurement accuracy than the regular SHWS. The lenslet array in the regular SHWS is replaced with an array of coded phase masks and the principle of coded aperture correlation holography (COACH) is used for wavefront reconstruction. Sharper correlation peaks achieved by COACH improve the accuracy of the estimated local slopes of the measured wavefront and consequently improve the reconstruction accuracy of the overall wavefront. Experimental results confirm that the proposed method provides a lower mean square wavefront error by one order of magnitude in comparison to the regular SHWS. Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHWS) was developed for pattern created by illuminating a single CPM with a plane wave. The optical metrology purposes [1] and later has been used in various intensity response in each cell of the array is shifted according to the other fields, such as adaptive optics [2], microscopy [3], retinal average slope of the wavefront in each corresponding cell. Composing imaging [4], and high-power laser systems [5]. Usually, in SHWS a the entire slopes yields a three-dimensional curvature used as an microlens array is used to measure the wavefront local gradients.
