Broadband and polarization reflectors in the lookdown, Selene vomer.
Predator evasion in the open ocean is difficult because there are no objects to hide behind. The silvery surface of fish plays an important role in open water camouflage. Various models have been proposed to account for the broadband reflectance by the fish skin that involve one-dimensional variations in the arrangement of guanine crystal reflectors, yet the three-dimensional organization of th...
متن کاملPolarization independent broadband reflectors based on cross-stacked gratings.
We report here a broadband reflector based on a two cross-stacked grating structure. This type of broadband reflector is polarization-independent, with ~100% reflectance over a designed spectral range of 1.4 to 1.6 μm. The reflection phase differences between TE and TM polarizations remain almost a constant value of 1.2π over the same high reflection spectral range. The reflector performance to...
متن کاملNon-polarizing broadband multilayer reflectors in fish
Dielectric multilayer reflectors that are non-polarizing are an important class of optical device and have numerous applications within optical fibres [1], dielectric waveguides [2] and LEDs [3]. Here we report analyses of a biological non-polarizing optical mechanism found in the broadband guanine-cytoplasm "silver" multilayer reflectors of three species of fish. Present in the fish stratum ar...
متن کاملBroadband Metamaterial Reflectors for Polarization Manipulation based on Cross/Ring Resonators
We presented the investigation of broadband metamaterial reflector for polarization manipulation based on cross/ring resonators. It is demonstrated that the metamaterial reflector can convert the linearly polarized incident wave to its cross polarized wave or circularly polarized wave. Due to the multiple resonances at neighboring frequencies, the proposed reflector presents broadband property ...
متن کاملMyxoma of the vomer bone.
Myxomas of bone in the head and neck are rare tumors. We present a 68 year old female with pain and epistaxis who was found to have the first reported case of a myxoma arising within the vomer bone. Some atypical magnetic resonance imaging features are described, however, myxoma imaging features are often non-specific and typically evoke a benign differential diagnosis. Surgical excision is the...
