Optical differential operation is an ultra-fast edge information extraction technology that enables identifying the image features, whereas current optical differentiators mainly operate along one or two differential orientations and is incompetent for switching the differential orientation. A reflection-type orientation-switchable optical differentiator is proposed and the BK7-MoS interface is used as an example to analyze the edge detection performance. Theory suggests that there are dual modulation methods, one is tuning the incident polarization angle with a Brewster incident angle, and the other one is altering the incident angle with a nearly vertical incident polarization angle. The reason is that the term r/r tan α ≪ 1 is an ignored small quantity under these two situations and the spatial spectral transfer function is closely related to the scale coefficients C and C, whose magnitudes are both the incident polarization angle and incident angle dependent. Our optical differentiator can be combined with other tuning means since some two-dimensional materials are responsive to external stimuli, such as electrical or magnetic fields and defect engineering, these findings have potential applications in optical sensing, machine vision, and biomedical imaging.

Analog optical computing based on Fourier optics has attracted ever-growing attention, offering unprecedented low power consumption and high parallelism computation at the speed of light. Typically, classical optical 4F systems have been widely employed as one of the most common approaches for analog optical computing. However, most existing schemes replicate the original architecture relying on two Fourier transforms and one spatial-frequency filtering, resulting in bulky size and complex structure.

Optical differential operations have recently attracted considerable attention owing to the capabilities of ultrafast speed and low power consumption. The transfer function, which embodies the frequency-domain characteristics of differential systems, plays an important role in differentiator design. Here, we report a super-Gaussian aperture differential filter, and we reveal unique characteristics of odd- and even-order transfer functions and corresponding differential effects via spatial spectrum modulation.

To explore the neuromelanin depigmentation of locus coeruleus (LC) and substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) in the isolated rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) using neuromelanin-sensitive MRI (NM-MRI), and to evaluate its utility for iRBD diagnosis. A total of 25 iRBD patients and 25 healthy controls were recruited and underwent NM-MRI. The contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) of SNc and LC, and the volume of SNc were compared between groups and evaluated visually.

Magnetoencephalography based on optically pumped magnetometers can passively detect the ultra-weak brain magnetic field signals, which has significant clinical application prospects for the diagnosis and treatment of cerebral disorders. This paper proposes a brain magnetic signal measurement method on the basis of the active-passive coupling magnetic shielding strategy and helmet-mounted detection array, which has lower cost and comparable performance over the existing ones. We first utilized the spatially-grid constrained coils and biplanar coils with proportion-integration-differentiation controller with tracking differentiator to ensure a near-zero and stable magnetic field environment with large uniform region.
