In this tutorial, we combine the different scientific fields of information theory, thermodynamics, regularization theory and non-destructive imaging, especially for photoacoustic and photothermal imaging. The goal is to get a better…
Photoacoustic imaging has emerged in the past decades. Compared with the traditional medical imaging mode, it has better imaging performance and has great development potential in the field of biological imaging. In traditional…
Spectral imaging and detection of mid-infrared (mid-IR) wavelengths are emerging as an enabling technology of great technical and scientific interest; primarily because important chemical compounds display unique and strong mid-IR spectral…
Low-cost thermal cameras are inaccurate (usually $\pm 3^\circ C$) and have space-variant nonuniformity across their detector. Both inaccuracy and nonuniformity are dependent on the ambient temperature of the camera. The goal of this work…
A machine-learning non-contact method to determine the temperature of a laser gain medium via its laser emission with a trained few-layer neural net model is presented. The training of the feed-forward Neural Network (NN) enables the…
Photoacoustic image (PAI) quality improvement using a low frequency piezoelectric micromachined ultrasound transducer (PMUT) having the fundamental resonant frequency 1 MHz is being reported. Specifically, three different methods are…
Thermal and photothermal effects play an increasing role at the nanoscale due to the general decrease of thermal conductances and to the increasing role of interfaces. Here we present a non-contact optomechanical analysis of the thermal and…
Room temperature operation is mandatory for any optoelectronics technology which aims to provide low-cost compact systems for widespread applications. In recent years, an important technological effort in this direction has been made in…
Low fluence illumination sources can facilitate clinical transition of photoacoustic imaging because they are rugged, portable, affordable, and safe. However, these sources also decrease image quality due to their low fluence. Here, we…
Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) has been applied to many biomedical applications over the past decades. However, the received PA signal usually suffers from poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Conventional solution of employing higher-power…
Inelastic electron tunneling and surface-enhanced optical spectroscopies at the molecular scale require cryogenic local temperatures even under illumination - conditions that are challenging to achieve with plasmonically resonant metallic…
Photothermal-Induced Resonance (PTIR) is increasingly used in the measurement of infrared absorption spectra of sub-micrometer objects. The technique measures IR absorption spectra by relying on the photothermal effect induced by a rapid…
Photoacoustic imaging systems offer a platform with high resolution to explore body tissues, food, and artwork. On the other hand, plasmonics constitutes a source of resonant heating and thermal expansion to generate acoustic waves.…
The photoacoustic signal in a closed T-cell resonator is generated and measured using laser based photoacoustic spectroscopy. The signal is modelled using the amplitude mode expansion method, which is based on eigenmode expansion and…
A new development in photoacoustic (PA) imaging has been the use of compact, portable and low-cost laser diodes (LDs), but LD-based PA imaging suffers from low signal intensity recorded by the conventional transducers. A common method to…
In photoacoustic imaging, ultrasound waves generated by a temperature rise after illumination of light absorbing structures are measured on the sample surface. These measurements are then used to reconstruct the optical absorption. We…
Photoacoustic microscopy (PAM) is an emerging imaging method combining light and sound. However, limited by the laser's repetition rate, state-of-the-art high-speed PAM technology often sacrifices spatial sampling density (i.e.,…
It is shown that an optical parametric amplifier inside a cavity can considerably improve the cooling of the micromechanical mirror by radiation pressure. The micromechanical mirror can be cooled from room temperature 300 K to sub-Kelvin…
Long-baseline interferometry (LBI) is used to reconstruct the image of faint thermal objects. The image quality, for a given exposure time, is in general limited by a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). We show theoretically that a significant…
In ghost imaging with narrow-band signal in thermal light background, signal arm filters bring higher value and upper limit of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and faster speed to reach that limit. The narrower bandwidth, the better.
