Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optical imaging of biological systems has undergone spectacular development in recent years, producing a quantity and a quality of information that, just twenty years ago, could only be dreamed of by physicists, biologists and physicians. Unconventional imaging systems provide access to physical quantities – phase, absorption, optical index, the polarization property of a wave or the chemical composition of an object – not accessible to conventional measurement systems. To achieve this, these systems use special optical setups and specific digital image processing to reconstruct physical quantities. This field is also known as computational imaging. This book presents various non-conventional imaging modalities developed for the biomedical field: wave front analysis imaging, digital holography/tomography, optical nanoscopy, endoscopy and singlesensor imaging. Experimental setups and reconstruction algorithms are presented for each modality.
Download or read book Unconventional Optical Elements for Information Storage Processing and Communications written by Emanuel Marom and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of optics has been accelerating at an unprecedented rate, due both to the tremendous growth of the field of fiber-optic communications, and to the improvement of optical materials and devices. Throughput capabilities of fiber systems are accelerating faster than Moore's law, the famous growth rate of silicon chip capability, which has propelled that industry relentlessly over decades. In addition, new optical storage techniques push the limits of information density, with an ever decreasing cost per bit of storage. Economic investment in photonics is at an all-time high. At the same time, other fields of optics, adaptive optics for instance, are bringing new capabilities to more classical applications such as astronomical imaging. New lasers continue to be developed, with applications in display, sensing, and biomedicine following at ever-shorter intervals after the initial discoveries. Given this background, the NATO Mediterranean Dialog Advanced Research Workshop on Unconventional Optical Elements for Information Storage, Processing and Communications, held in Israel on October 19-21, 1998, came at an opportune moment in the history of optics. Its aim was to overview the current state-of-the-art and encourage cooperation in the Mediterranean region, with a view to highlighting and enhancing the existing potential for further development and innovation. The workshop included participants from Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, Israel, Italy, Jordan, Morocco, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom and USA.
Download or read book Estimation Theoretic Methods for Unconventional Imaging written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this program was to perform basic research on the application of estimation-theoretic processing methods for unconventional imaging systems. Imaging applications involving both incoherent (passive) and coherent (active) illumination were investigated, and results are described in this report for i) lower bounds on the estimation accuracy for multi-channel phase retrieval; and ii) dual-channel signal recovery from auto- and cross- correlation data. As a result of i), insight is gained into the relative merits of a Hartmann sensor for wavefront estimation, and the surprising result is obtained that a conventional image encodes more information about a wavefront than does a Hartmann sensor. As a result of ii), a novel processing method is derived for recovering two object functions from measurements of their auto- and cross-correlation functions.

Book excerpt: The main theme of this contract is the development of unconventional imaging techniques. The imaging methods advocated result in complicated nonlinear relations between the object and its image, inversion techniques are required to translate the measured data into a meaningful estimate of the object. Although these methods require a large amount of computation, they are relatively cheap compared to the costs of large aperture optical systems. The technical approach is two-fold: first development of the theory of the unconventional imaging scenario in question; second adaption of the latest techniques from numerical analysis to carry out the inversion from measured data to reconstructed object. One problem was completed and written up for publication: Inversion of the modulus and phase of a coherently illuminated object from its measured diffraction image. This constitutes the main body of the report along with representative numerical calculations. The inversion techniques developed here should be of great use in various biomedical imaging techniques and could result in replacing phase contract microscopy. (MM).
