    摘要: A see-through reflective optical device includes: a reflective metasurface configured for a targeted design optical wavelength, wherein the reflective metasurface comprises a sub-wavelength periodic arrangement of meta-atoms formed by patterned isolated gap surface plasmon (GSP) resonators, where the patterned isolated GSP resonators comprise a patterned optically thin metal layer for the design wavelength, an optically thick metal layer for the design wavelength, and an insulator layer between the patterned optically thin metal layer and the optically thick metal layer; and an array of apertures of random positions and diameters greater than the targeted design wavelength formed through the reflective metasurface providing a designed percentage of light transparency through the reflective metasurface. The reflective metasurface of the see-through reflective optical device may comprise, e.g., a reflective diffraction grating metasurface, and may be used as a combiner element surface in a near eye display assembly.

    摘要: Expanded performance opportunities for imaging spectrometers are described using φ-polynomial freeform surfaces in reflective and diffractive optics. The imaging spectrometers are generally of a type that include an entrance aperture for admitting radiation over a range of wavelengths, a detector array, a primary reflective optic with optical power, a secondary reflective diffractive optic, and a tertiary reflective optic with optical power for collectively imaging the entrance aperture onto the detector array through a range of dispersed positions. One or more of the primary reflective optic, the secondary reflective diffractive optic, and the tertiary reflective optic can include a φ-polynomial optical surface with no axis of symmetry and represented by a function that depends on both a radial component and an azimuthal

    摘要: a) A Gabor domain optical coherence microscopy (GD-OCM) system providing high resolution of structural and motion imaging of objects such as tissues is combined with the use of reverberant shear wave fields (RevSW) or longitudinal shear waves (LSW) and two novel mechanical excitation sources: a coaxial coverslip excitation (CCE) and a multiple pronged excitation (MPE) sources providing structured and controlled mechanical excitation in tissues and leading to accurate derivation of elastographic properties. Alternatively, general optical computed tomography (OCT) is combined with RevSW or LWC in the object to derive elastographic properties. The embodiments include (a) GD-OCM with RevSW; (b) GD-OCM with LSW; (c) General OCT with RevSW; and General OCT with LSW.

    摘要: A mechanically tunable reflective metamirror optical device for a targeted design optical wavelength includes a dynamically deformable substrate and a sub-wavelength periodic arrangement of patterned isolated gap surface plasmon (GSP) resonators positioned in or on the dynamically deformable substrate. The patterned isolated GSP resonators are movable relative to each other and comprise a patterned optically thin metal layer for the design wavelength, a patterned optically thick metal layer for the design wavelength, and a patterned insulator layer between the patterned optically thin and optically thick metal layers.

    摘要: A near eye display assembly includes (a) frame; (b) a combiner operably connected to the frame as a first reflective surface positionable in front of an eye of a user of the display assembly; (c) a secondary mirror operably connected to the frame as a second reflective surface positionable proximate a side of the nose adjacent to the eye of a user of the display assembly; (d) an image source operably connected to the frame and optically coupled to the secondary mirror along an optical path; and (e) an optical fold element between the image source and the secondary mirror in the optical path, and positionable proximate the temple adjacent to the eye of a user of the display assembly; wherein an intermediate image is formed in the optical path between the image source and the secondary mirror, wherein the combiner and the secondary mirror are in an off-axis folded geometry which directs images from the optical fold element to an eyebox of the near eye display assembly, and at least one of the combiner and the secondary mirror include a freeform surface, wherein the freeform component corrects optical aberrations induced by a tilting and decentering of the first reflective surface and the second reflective surface, and wherein at least the combiner includes a nanostructured meta-surface which further provides wavefront control of an image from the image source to be directed to the eyebox and enables the combiner to be positioned at a tilt angle so that unobscured images are conveyable between the optical fold element and the secondary mirror while providing an FOV of at least 30 degrees and an eyebox width of at least 5 mm.

    摘要: Systems and methods for assessing multi-layer structures in which a spectrum array is generated from low coherence interferometry and input into a statistical estimator, which determines the thickness and layer number based on the inputted spectrum and other information, including information about a source intensity noise, Poisson noise, and dark noise associated with the low coherence interferometry.
