In this paper, an optofluidic phase modulator based on dielectrowetting is designed and fabricated to adjust the optical phase. Two liquids are filled in the device, and a transparent sheet is employed at the liquid interface to keep the interface flat. When different voltages are applied to the modulator, the flat interface moves up and down, leading to the variation of the optical phase. A theoretical model is constructed to predict the optical phase shift quantitatively, and the phase regulation ability is also tested experimentally. Our modulator realizes continuous adjustment of the optical phase in a certain range by the operation of voltage adjustment. When the voltage is increased to 150 V, the optical phase modulation range of our proposed modulator can reach 9.366 π.

In the search for new ultraviolet (UV) nonlinear optical (NLO) materials, two novel cadmium mixed halide compounds, (NH)CdClF and (NH)CdBrF, are successfully synthesized via hydrothermal methods. These compounds crystallize in the noncentrosymmetric (NCS) space group, R32, and are composed of distorted octahedral [CdXF] (X═Cl or Br) units, which extend into a 3D framework. Remarkably, both compounds demonstrate strong second-harmonic generation (SHG) efficiencies-3.

The segmented vortex beam with a single uniform-intensity ring and a combination of multiple topological charges is designed for information encoding. The radius of the beam can be designed to be arbitrary, with multiple orbital angular momentum states superimposed along the ring.

Frequency-domain near-infrared spectroscopy (FD-NIRS) is a noninvasive method for quantitatively measuring optical absorption and scattering in tissue. This study introduces structured interrogation (SI) as an interference-based approach for implementing FD-NIRS in order to enhance optical property estimation in multilayered tissues and sensitivity to deeper layers. We find that, in the presence of realistic noise, SI accurately estimates properties and chromophore concentrations with less than a 5% error.

August 2024
In this paper, a new theoretical model of a partially coherent Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) beam carrying multiple off-axis vortex phases was established. The evolution properties of the focused intensity of the beam after passing through a thin lens were theoretically studied, and then the modulation effect of multiple off-axis vortex phases on the beam with multiring structured intensity was explored. The results indicate that the multiple off-axis vortex phases can reconstruct the multiring structured intensity within the LG beam, thus generating a structured intensity with multilobe and multiring patterns.
