Article Abstract

Phase-coded optical correlation storage in photorefractive crystals, using a crossed cylindrical-collimating lens system, has been realized. It possesses the advantages of both storage and correlator. It can perform real time and fast selection of the information correlated to the input information from a great amount of stored information. In Zn:Fe:LiNbO(3)(0.03 wt. % Fe, 3 mol. % Zn), combining this rotational phase-coded multiplexing with angular multiplexing, 36 holograms have been successfully multiplexed and exactly identified in the same crystal volume. The cross talk and angular selectivity of such phase-coded multiplexing are discussed.

Prefrontal working memory signal primarily controls phase-coded information within extrastriate cortex.

In order to understand how prefrontal cortex provides the benefits of working memory (WM) for visual processing we examined the influence of WM on the representation of visual signals in V4 neurons in two macaque monkeys. We found that WM induces strong β oscillations in V4 and that the timing of action potentials relative to this oscillation reflects sensory information- i.e.

Depth and spectral imaging are essential technologies for a myriad of applications but have been conventionally studied as individual problems. Recent efforts have been made to optically encode spectral-depth (SD) information jointly in a single image sensor measurement, subsequently decoded by a computational algorithm. The performance of single snapshot SD imaging systems mainly depends on the optical modulation function, referred to as codification, and the computational methods used to recover the SD information from the coded measurement.

Metasurfaces consisting of planar subwavelength structures with minimal thickness are appealing to emerging technologies such as integrated optics and photonic chips for their small footprint and compatibility with sophisticated planar nanofabrication techniques. However, reduced dimensionality due to the 2D nature of a metasurface poses challenges to the adaptation of a few useful methods that have found great success with conventional optics in 3D space. For instance, Bragg diffraction is the foundation of the well-established technique of phase-coded multiplexing in volume holography.
