Ultraviolet decontamination of personal protective equipment, particularly masks, is important in situations where mask reuse is practiced. To assist in the development of UV-C decontamination chambers, we have constructed ray tracing models in Zemax OpticStudio v20.1 for two distinct geometries, namely, a rectangular cabinet and a cylindrical can. These models provide irradiance distributions that can be used for comparison with experiment, as well as to predict local irradiance variation over the surface of a mask. In this paper we describe the model details, including: (1) a mask object in CAD format; (2) our assumptions for modeling surface properties; (3) the use of polygon object detectors for local irradiance analysis; and (4) experimental results that compare favorably to the simulations.

The rapid advancement of portable electronics has created enormous demand for compact optical imaging systems. Such systems often require folded optical systems with beam steering and shaping components to reduce sizes and minimize image aberration at the same time. In this study, we present a solution that utilizes an inverse-designed dielectric metasurface for arbitrary-angle image-relay with aberration correction.

Though the problem of bio integration was addressed partially by strategic utilization of synthetic polymers and native tissue, major challenges like optical performance and design-associated post-operative complications of KPro were overlooked. Herein, a novel intralamellar KPro design is conceptualized to address these challenges using a light-transparent poly(2-hydroxy ethylmethacrylate) (pHEMA) hydrogel with good shape memory.

Sequentially timed all-optical mapping photography is one of the main emerging ultra-fast detection technologies that can be widely applicable to ultra-fast detection at the picosecond level in fields such as materials and life sciences. We propose a new optical structure for an all-optical spatial mapping module that can control the optical field of two-dimensional imaging while improving spectral resolution and detector sensor utilization. The model of optical parameters based on geometrical optics theory for the given structure has been established, and the theoretical analysis of the inter-frame energy crosstalk caused by incident beam spot width, chromatic aberration, and main errors of the periscope array has been conducted.
