When observing chip-to-free-space light beams from silicon photonics (SiPh) to free space, manual adjustment of camera lens is often required to obtain a focused image of the light beams. In this Letter, we demonstrated an auto-focusing system based on the you-only-look-once (YOLO) model. The trained YOLO model exhibits high classification accuracy of 99.7% and high confidence level of >0.95 when detecting light beams from SiPh gratings. A video demonstration of real-time light beam detection, real-time computation of beam widths, and auto-focusing of light beams is also included.

Single-shot ptychography is a quantitative phase imaging method wherein overlapping beams of light arranged in a grid pattern simultaneously illuminate a sample, allowing a full ptychographic dataset to be collected in a single shot. It is primarily used at optical wavelengths, but there is interest in using it for x-ray imaging. However, constraints imposed by x-ray optics have limited the resolution achievable to date.

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of a chlorhexidine digluconate solution (CHX) applied as an antiproteolytic agent for controlling erosive tooth wear or as part of the adhesive treatment on long-term bond strength to eroded dentin. Dentin specimens were abraded with a 600-grit silicon carbide (SiC) paper for 1 min (sound dentin - S), subsequently treated with 2% CHX for 1 min (with excess removed, followed by a 6-hour rest), and eroded by exposure to Coca-Cola for 5 min, three times a day, for 5 days (CHX-treated and eroded dentin - CHXE), or only eroded (eroded dentin - E). The specimens were acid-etched (15 s), rinsed (30 s), dried (15 s), and rehydrated with 1.

3D Femtosecond Laser Beam Deflection for High-Precision Fabrication and Modulation of Individual Voxelated PCM Meta-Atoms.

Adv Sci (Weinh)

Laser Micro/Nano Fabrication Laboratory, School of Mechanical Engineering, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing, 100081, P. R. China.

Optical metasurfaces have found widespread applications in the field of optoelectronic devices. However, achieving dynamic and flexible control over metasurface functionalities, while also developing simplified fabrication methods for metasurfaces, continues to pose a significant challenge. Here, the study introduces a PCM-only metasurface that exclusively consists of voxel units crafted from different phases of phase-change materials.

Experimental arrangement to study the impact of atmospheric turbulence on user-defined beams.

Rev Sci Instrum

Applied and Adaptive Optics Laboratory, Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology, Thiruvananthapuram 695547, Kerala, India.

In the present work, we propose an experimental setup to investigate the effect of atmospheric turbulence on user-defined beams. The user-defined beams were formed by writing reconfigurable patterns on a spatial light modulator, allowing the impact of atmospheric turbulence to be investigated simultaneously and in real time. The programmable controllability provides several flexibilities to the system, such as the ability to create different beam types simultaneously, control the separation between different beams, compensate for aberrations, and easily switch between different beam types.
