چکیده

We report the first measurement of zodiacal light (ZL) polarization spectrum in near-infrared between 0.8 and 1.8 $\mu$m. Using low-resolution spectrometer (LRS) on board Cosmic Infrared Background Experiment (CIBER), calibrated for absolute spectrophotometry spectropolarimetry, we acquire long-slit spectral images total diffuse sky brightness towards five fields. To extract ZL spectrum, subtract contribution other radiation, such as galactic (DGL), integrated star (ISL), extragalactic background (EBL). The measured shows little wavelength dependence degree clearly varies a function ecliptic coordinates solar elongation. Among observed fields, North Ecliptic Pole maximum $\sim$ 20$\%$, which is consistent with an earlier observation from Diffuse (DIRBE) aboard Explorer (COBE). its elongation are reproduced by empirical scattering model visible band also Mie large absorptive particles, while Rayleigh ruled out. All our results suggest that interplanetary dust dominated particles.

The Cosmic Infrared Background Experiment (ciber): a Sounding Rocket Payload to Study the near Infrared Extragalactic Background Light

The Cosmic Infrared Background Experiment (CIBER) is a suite of four instruments designed to study the near infrared (IR) background light from above the Earth’s atmosphere. The instrument package comprises two imaging telescopes designed to characterize spatial anisotropy in the extragalactic IR background caused by cosmological structure during the epoch of reionization, a low resolution spec...

Near-infrared light photoacoustic ophthalmoscopy

We achieved photoacoustic ophthalmoscopy (PAOM) imaging of the retina with near-infrared (NIR) light illumination. A PAOM imaging system with dual-wavelength illumination at 1064 nm and 532 nm was built. We compared in vivo imaging results of both albino and pigmented rat eyes at the two wavelengths. The results show that the bulk optical absorption of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is on...

Near-infrared electronic spectrum of CH2+.

Four vibronic bands of the A 2B1(Piu)<--X 2A1 electronic transition of CH2+ have been observed in the near infrared from approximately 11,000-13,000 cm(-1) using a highly sensitive spectrometer based on a Ti:sapphire laser and a positive column plasma. The two states are derived from the lowest 2Piu state of the linear conformation as a result of a strong Renner-Teller effect. As expected, the ...

Manipulating polarization of light with ultrathin epsilon-near-zero metamaterials.

One of the basic functionalities of photonic devices is the ability to manipulate the polarization state of light. Polarization components are usually implemented using the retardation effect in natural birefringent crystals and, thus, have a bulky design. Here, we have demonstrated the polarization manipulation of light by employing a thin subwavelength slab of metamaterial with an extremely a...
