Low-noise broadband light generation from optical fibers for use in high-resolution optical coherence tomography.
Broadband light generation from a single-mode optical fiber was developed for high-resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT). No noise amplification was observed for light broadened by self-phase modulation. The investigation showed that the intensity noise of light broadened by self-phase modulation in a single-mode optical fiber was much lower than that of continuum light from a microstru...
متن کاملUltrahigh resolution optical coherence tomography using a superluminescent light source.
A superluminescent Ti:Al2O(3) crystal is demonstrated as a light source for ultrahigh resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT). Single spatial mode, fiber coupled output powers of ~40 microW can be generated with 138 nm bandwidth using a 5 W frequency doubled, diode pumped laser, pumping a thin Ti:Al2O(3) crystal. Ultrahigh resolution OCT imaging is demonstrated with 2.2 microm axial resol...
متن کاملUltrahigh Resolution Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography at 1.3 μm Using a Broadband Superluminescent Diode Light Source
We present an ultrahigh resolution spectral-domain optical coherence tomography imaging system using a broadband superluminescent diode light source emitting at a center wavelength of 1.3 μm. The light source consists of two spectrally shifted superluminescent diodes that are coupled together into a single mode fiber. The effective emission power spectrum has a full width at half maximum of 200...
متن کاملReproducibility of high-resolution optical coherence tomography in multiple sclerosis.
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive method to quantify neurodegeneration as an outcome in multiple sclerosis clinical trials; however, no data exist on Cirrus spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) reproducibility in patients with multiple sclerosis. The objective of this study was to determine the protocol for achieving optimal inter-visit, inter-rater, and intr...
متن کاملJBO LETTERS Combined multiphoton microscopy and optical coherence tomography using a 12-fs broadband source
A 12-fs broadband 100-nm source is used to combine multiphoton microscopy MPM and optical coherence tomography OCT in a single platform. An ultrafast Ti:sapphire laser simultaneously provides short pulses necessary for efficient MPM excitation and the broad bandwidth required for high-resolution OCT. Using 0.3m microspheres and a 63 , 0.95 numerical aperture objective, we demonstrate that MPM a...
