We have developed an accurate and robust phase-estimation method in phase-shifting electronic speckle pattern interferometry. Unlike other methods that assume a constant phase within a fitting window, our method treats the phase variation with a gradient. A cost function that can utilize the information of pixel positions is formulated on the basis of a least-squares criterion. Powell's iteration method is applied to it to derive the phase and its gradient. An automatic consistency-checking routine and an algorithm that improves the initial guess of the iteration are developed for severe situations with large noise and steep phase variations.

This paper explores a multi-directional (multiple directional) shearing synchronous polarization phase-shifting interferometer that utilizes a birefringent crystal displacer. This design effectively mitigates nonlinear issues and environmental influences commonly encountered in synchronous phase-shifting interferometry. Additionally, it enables the acquisition of shear wavefront information from multiple directions.

Phase shifter (PS) is a key component of a phased array antenna (PAA) system, which controls the microwave phase and realizes the antenna beam forming and scanning. A ferrite PS (FPS) is a current-controlled PS that uses the ferrite's gyromagnetic properties to realize phase shifting. It has the advantages of short phase switching time, low microwave loss, and high reliability and, therefore, has been widely used in low-power PAA systems.

Through AC-DC-AC conversion, the frequency of the three-phase AC input voltage is increased, the number of core and coil turns in the transformer is reduced to reduce the size of the phase-shifter transformer, a zigzag structure of the phase-shifter transformer is used to solve the unbalanced distribution of current between the diode bridges, and a passive harmonic suppression method on the DC side is used to generate a loop current by using a group of single-phase rectifier bridges to regulate the input line current of the phase-shifter transformer. The phase-shifted voltage is input into two three-phase diode rectifier bridges to rectify and supply power to the load.

Intracellular cargo delivery is crucial for drug evaluation, nanomedicine development, and gene therapy, in which high efficiency while maintaining cell viability is needed for downstream analysis. Here, an acoustic-mediated precise drug delivering mechanism is proposed by directly modulating cell micro-oscillation mode and membrane permeability. Through phase shifting keying-based spatiotemporal acoustic tweezers, controllable oscillating cell arrays can be achieved in shaking potentials.

The phase-shifting structured light illumination technique is widely used in imaging but often relies on mechanical translation stages or spatial light modulators, leading to system instability, low displacement accuracy, and limited integration feasibility. In response to these challenges, we propose and demonstrate an approach for generating far-field phase-shifting structured light using a polarization multiplexing metasurface. By controlling the polarization states of incident and transmitted light, the metasurface creates a three-step displacement of structured light, eliminating the need to move samples or illumination sources.
