When it comes to “phase measurement” or “quantitative phase imaging”, many people will
automatically connect them with “laser” and “interferometry”. Indeed, conventional …

Optical wireless communication (OWC) refers to transmission in unguided propagation
media through the use of optical carriers, ie, visible, infrared (IR), and ultraviolet (UV) bands …

Ghost imaging (GI) facilitates image acquisition under low-light conditions by single-pixel
measurements and thus has great potential in applications in various fields ranging from …

Single-photon detectors are ubiquitous in quantum information science and quantum
sensing. They are key enabling technologies for numerous scientific discoveries and …

High-power laser delivery with near-diffraction-limited beam quality is typically limited to tens

Polarized Light and Optical Systems presents polarization optics for undergraduate and
graduate students in a way which makes classroom teaching relevant to current issues in …

Porosity plays a clearly important role in geology. It controls fluid storage in aquifers, oil and
gas fields and geothermal systems, and the extent and connectivity of the pore structure …

Lensless imaging provides opportunities to design imaging systems free from the constraints
imposed by traditional camera architectures. Due to advances in imaging hardware …

Polarization, the path traced by light's electric field vector, appears in all areas of optics. In
recent decades, various technologies have enabled the precise control of light's polarization …

Optical rogue waves are rare, extreme fluctuations in the value of an optical field. The
term'optical rogue wave'was first used in the context of an analogy between pulse …
