Multiwavelength parallel phase-shifting digital holography using angular mult...
We propose a single-shot digital holography for recording multiwavelength and complex amplitude information by using a single monochromatic image sensor. The zeroth-order wave... -
Thermo-optic tuning and switching in SOI waveguide Fabry-Perot microcavities
Compact silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguide thermo-optically tunable Fabry-Perot microcavities with silicon/air Bragg mirrors are demonstrated. Quality factors of Q=4,584 are... -
Parametric distortion-adaptive neighborhood for omnidirectional camera
Catadioptric omnidirectional images exhibit serious nonlinear distortion due to the involved quadratic mirror. Conventional pinhole model-based methods perform poorly when... -
