Blood is a non-Newtonian, shear-thinning fluid owing to the physical properties and
behaviors of red blood cells (RBCs). Under increased shear flow, pre-existing clusters of …

A leukocyte recognition method for human peripheral blood smear based on island-
clustering texture (ICT) is proposed. By analyzing the features of the five typical classes of …

In this paper we present our study regarding changes of human red blood cells (RBCs)
immersed in solutions with different tonicity, monitored using digital holographic microscopy …

Helical phase distributions used for optical information transfer increase its capacity by
offering a characteristic spatial intensity arrangement for the diffracted beam. Here we …

A method to measure the dimensions of objects below the optical diffraction limit using
diffraction analysis of out-of-focus bright-field images is presented. The method relies on the …

A Microscopia Holográfica Digital (MHD) é uma poderosa ferramenta para análise não
destrutiva de superfícies e caracterização morfológica e estrutural de materiais. Várias …

We probe the natural complex structures in the transparent insect wings by a simple, non-
invasive, real time optical technique using both monochromatic and broadband …

In the past few years, the state-of-the-art additive manufacturing (AM) via femtosecond laser
direct writing (FsLDW) has become a powerful tool for flexible microfabrication of complex …

We present the digital inline holographic microscopy for blood cell counting. The microscope
unit contains a pinhole chip for illumination, a micro-fluidic chip, and a CMOS-chip for …

The diffraction patterns (DPs) from helical phase distributions were intensively studied due
to their peculiar capability of carrying orbital angular momentum. In the present study, we …
