Dispersion is a common phenomenon in optics due to the frequency dependence of the refractive index in polychromatic light. This issue, if left untreated in optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging, leads to signal broadening of the…
The common and traditional method for dispersion compensation in optical domain is concatenating the transmit optical fiber by a compensating optical fiber having high-negative dispersion coefficient. In this paper, we take an opposite…
Nonlinear SU(1,1) quantum interferometers based on non-degenerate optical parametric down-conversion exhibit strong unbalanced group velocity dispersion (GVD). This feature is intrinsic to this type of interferometer as correlated photons…
Within the expansive domain of optical sciences, achieving the precise characterization of light beams stands as a fundamental pursuit, pivotal for various applications, including telecommunications and imaging technologies. This study…
We demonstrate experimentally a novel technique for characterizing transverse spatial coherence using the Wigner distribution function. The presented method is based on measuring interference between a pair of rotated and displaced replicas…
Wigner function tomography is indispensable for characterizing quantum states, but its commonly used version, balanced homodyne detection, suffers from several weaknesses. First, it requires efficient detection, which is critical for…
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a prevalent non-invasive imaging method which provides high resolution volumetric visualization of retina. However, its inherent defect, the speckle noise, can seriously deteriorate the tissue…
Blind deconvolution problems are severely ill-posed because neither the underlying signal nor the forward operator are not known exactly. Conventionally, these problems are solved by alternating between estimation of the image and kernel…
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) was originally conceived as a volumetric imaging method. Quickly, OCT images went beyond structural data and started to provide functional information about an object enabling for example visualization of…
We demonstrate experimentally quantum-inspired, spectral-domain intensity optical coherence tomography. We show that the technique allows for both axial resolution improvement and dispersion cancellation compared to conventional optical…
We propose a phase-space representation concept in terms of the Wigner function for a quantum harmonic oscillator model that exhibits the semiconfinement effect through its mass varying with the position. The new method is used to compute…
Artefacts in quantum-mimic Optical Coherence Tomography are considered detrimental because they scramble the images even for the simplest objects. They are a side effect of autocorrelation which is used in the quantum entanglement mimicking…
Chromatic dispersion is a common problem to degrade the system resolution in optical coherence tomography (OCT). This study is to develop a deep learning network for automated dispersion compensation (ADC-Net) in OCT. The ADC-Net is based…
Quantum-optical coherence tomography (Q-OCT) provides a dispersion-canceled axial-imaging method, but its practical use is limited by the weakness of the light source and by artifacts in the images. A recent study using chirped-pulse…
This paper presents a blind detection and compensation technique for camera lens geometric distortions. The lens distortion introduces higher-order correlations in the frequency domain and in turn it can be detected using higher-order…
We propose a new technique, called quantum optical coherence tomography (QOCT), for carrying out tomographic measurements with dispersion-cancelled resolution. The technique can also be used to extract the frequency-dependent refractive…
We first review the usefulness of the Wigner distribution functions (WDF), associated with Lindblad and pre-master equations, for analyzing a host of problems in Quantum Optics where dissipation plays a major role, an arena where weak…
We propose the feed-forward perturbation-based nonlinearity compensation method using the received signal, which outperforms conventional decision-based ones and eliminates the need for decision feedback. Additionally, combining half-half…
We investigate the capabilities of loss-tolerant quantum state characterization using a photon-number resolving, time-multiplexed detector (TMD). We employ the idea of probing the Wigner function point-by-point in phase space via photon…
I present a novel algorithm for reconstructing the Wigner function from homodyne statistics. The proposed method, based on maximum-likelihood estimation, is capable of compensating for detection losses in a numerically stable way.
