Resolution limits for imaging through multi-mode fiber.
We experimentally demonstrate endoscopic imaging through a multi-mode fiber (MMF) in which the number of resolvable image features approaches four times the number of spatial modes per polarization propagating in the fiber. In our method, a sequence of random field patterns is input to the fiber, generating a sequence of random intensity patterns at the output, which are used to sample an objec...
متن کاملNoise-reduction algorithms for optimization-based imaging through multi-mode fiber.
Three modifications are shown to improve resolution and reduce noise amplification in endoscopic imaging through multi-mode fiber using optimization-based reconstruction (OBR). First, random sampling patterns are replaced by sampling patterns designed to have more nearly equal singular values. Second, the OBR algorithm uses a point-spread function based on the estimated spatial frequency spectr...
متن کاملUltra-thin rigid endoscope: two-photon imaging through a graded-index multi-mode fiber.
Rigid endoscopes like graded-index (GRIN) lenses are known tools in biological imaging, but it is conceptually difficult to miniaturize them. In this letter, we demonstrate an ultra-thin rigid endoscope with a diameter of only 125 μm. In addition, we identify a domain where two-photon endoscopic imaging with fs-pulse excitation is possible. We validate the ultra-thin rigid endoscope consisting ...
متن کاملSuperimposed multi-resolution imaging
We present a novel approach to foveated imaging based on dual-aperture optics that superimpose two images on a single sensor, thus attaining a pronounced foveal function with reduced optical complexity. Each image captures the scene at a different magnification and therefore the system simultaneously captures a wide field of view and a high acuity at a central region. This approach enables arbi...
متن کاملPolarimetric multi-mode tilted fiber grating sensors.
The polarimetric sensing characteristics of multi-mode-fiber based tilted fiber Bragg gratings (MMF-TFBG) have been analyzed and experimentally demonstrated. The larger diameter fiber core and graded index core/cladding profile enable the tilted gratings to excite multiple high-order core modes with significantly different polarization dependence and to form a well-defined "comb" of spectrally ...
