In this Letter, we describe a newly developed synchronized dual-wavelength laser speckle contrast imaging system, which contains two cameras that are synchronously triggered to acquire data. The system can acquire data at a high spatiotemporal resolution (up to 500 Hz for ~1000×1000 pixels). A mouse model of stroke is used to demonstrate the capability for imaging the fast changes (within tens of milliseconds) in oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin concentration, and the relative changes in blood flow in the mouse brain, through an intact cranium. This novel imaging technology will enable the study of fast hemodynamics and metabolic changes in vascular diseases.

Motion recognition based on vision detectors requires the synchronous encoding and processing of temporal and spatial information in wide wavebands. Here, the dual-waveband sensitive optoelectronic synapses performing as graded neurons are reported for high-accuracy motion recognition and perception. Wedge-shaped nanostructures are designed and fabricated on molybdenum disulfide (MoS) monolayers, leading to plasmon-enhanced wideband absorption across the visible to near-infrared spectral range.

Article Synopsis
- Gallium arsenide (GaAs) microwires, with an average diameter of 1.1 μm, have been successfully grown and show promise for nonlinear optical devices by allowing for bandgap engineering.
- The microwires exhibit significant strain, measured between 1.61% to 2.03%, which reduces their bandgap compared to bulk GaAs, extending the operational wavelength range to 1.1 μm.
- These GaAs microwires function as effective saturable absorbers in laser applications, demonstrating capabilities like Q-switching and mode-locking in Yb-bulk lasers, highlighting their potential for advanced optical technologies.
An all-solid-state single-frequency continuous-wave (CW) 355 nm ultraviolet (UV) laser based on a dispersion-compensated doubly resonant resonator is presented in this Letter that is achieved by employing homemade high-stability all-solid-state frequency-correlated dual-wavelength lasers at 1064 and 532 nm and a temperature-controlled type-I critical-phase-matching LiBO (LBO) to act as the fundamental laser source and the nonlinear medium, respectively. The frequency-correlated dual-wavelength single-frequency CW laser supplies the fundamental frequency 1064 and 532 nm lasers with good frequency synchronization. And the temperature-controlled LBO acts as the dispersion-compensation element to realize double resonance of the 1064 and 532 nm laser.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFWe demonstrate a versatile dual-wavelength synchronous mode-locking of a diode-pumped Cr:LiSAF laser for the first time, to our knowledge. A two-color mode-locked operation is achieved by using intracavity birefringent filters (BRFs) or etalons as frequency-selective elements. Using filters with different thicknesses and hence different free spectral ranges (FSRs), wavelength separation in two-color mode-locking could be selected between 1 and 9 nm, with corresponding beating frequencies in the 0.
