Article Abstract
We present a fast NlogN time algorithm for computing quadratic-phase integrals. This three-parameter class of integrals models propagation in free space in the Fresnel approximation, passage through thin lenses, and propagation in quadratic graded-index media as well as any combination of any number of these and is therefore of importance in optics. By carefully managing the sampling rate, one need not choose N much larger than the space-bandwidth product of the signals, despite the highly oscillatory integral kernel. The only deviation from exactness arises from the approximation of a continuous Fourier transform with the discrete Fourier transform. Thus the algorithm computes quadratic-phase integrals with a performance similar to that of the fast-Fourier-transform algorithm in computing the Fourier transform, in terms of both speed and accuracy.

We proposed a numerical and accurate quadratic phase aberration compensation method in digital holography. A phase imitation method based on Gaussian 1σ-criterion is used to obtain the morphological features of the object phase using partial differential, filtering and integration successively. We also propose an adaptive compensation method based on a maximum-minimum-average- α-standard deviation (MMAαSD) evaluation metric to obtain optimal compensated coefficients by minimizing the above metric of the compensation function.

Low-noise integrated all-optical wavelength converters that can be operated in short pulse regime are essential tools to overcome contention resolution in a modern communication network, based on wavelength division multiplexing. Any imperfect functionality in such devices causes non-ideal optical power transfer to the converted data pulses. All imperfections during the preparation and operation of the wavelength converters can be addressed to the waveguide inhomogeneity which distorts data pulses to be converted.

Optical phased array (OPA), as a promising beam steering technology, however, usually suffers from a narrow field of view (FOV) that limits its performances in applications. A miniaturized compact strategy to enlarge the beam steering angle is quite desirable for the solid-state OPA technique. Here an on-chip metasurface-doublet is proposed to offer angle magnification integrated with a port-selected optical phased array.

Here, we demonstrate a harmonic metalens with a quadratic phase profile that enables WFOV imaging and achromatic imaging at certain discrete wavelengths. First, we quantitatively explain why the quadratic phase enables WFOV imaging using its Fourier Transform (FT).
