On the phase of plasmons excited by slits in a metal film
The excitation of surface plasmons by subwavelength slits in metal films is studied using a rigorous diffraction model. It is shown that the plasmon is launched by a slit in... -
Polarization-sensitive swept-source optical coherence tomography with continu...
We present fiber-based polarization-sensitive swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) based on continuous source polarization modulation. The light source is a... -
Ultrasmall spot size scanning laser ophthalmoscopy
An ultrasmall spot size scanning laser ophthalmoscope has been developed that employs an annular aberration-corrected incident beam to increase the effective numerical aperture... -
Dark adaptation in relation to choroidal thickness in healthy young subjects:...
Abstract Background Dark adaptation is an energy-requiring process in the outer retina nourished by the profusely perfused choroid. We hypothesized that variations in choroidal... -
A cure for the blues: opsin duplication and subfunctionalization for short-wa...
Abstract Background Arthropods have received much attention as a model for studying opsin evolution in invertebrates. Yet, relatively few studies have investigated the diversity... -
Ultrahigh speed 1050nm swept source / Fourier domain OCT retinal and anterior...
We demonstrate ultrahigh speed swept source/Fourier domain ophthalmic OCT imaging using a short cavity swept laser at 100,000 – 400,000 axial scan rates. Several design...
