A simple demonstration of frustrated total internal reflection
We describe a quantitative and inexpensive method of demonstrating frustrated total internal reflection based on the attenuation of a laser beam through a wedge-shaped air gap between two glass prisms. An advantage of this method is that the thickness of the air gap can be determined by observing interference effects with only a slight modification of the setup. The experiment avoids the need t...
متن کاملTime-domain measurements of reflection delay in frustrated total internal reflection.
We present experimental evidence that the contribution of the Goos-Hänchen shift to tunneling delay is suppressed in frustrated total internal reflection. We use a Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer to perform direct time measurements of reflection delays with femtosecond resolution at optical frequencies, and take advantage of a liquid-crystal-filled double-prism structure to dynamically change the...
متن کاملTotal internal reflection fluorescence.
Total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) is an optical effect particularly well-suited to the study of molecular and cellular phenomena at liquid/solid interfaces. Such interfaces are central to a wide range of biochemical and biophysical processes: binding to and triggering of cells by hormones, neurotransmitters, and antigens; blood coagulation at foreign surfaces; electron transport in ...
متن کاملTunable Wide-Angle Tunneling in Graphene-Assisted Frustrated Total Internal Reflection.
Electrically tunable permittivity of graphene provides an excellent tool in photonic device design. Many previous works on graphene-based photonic devices relied on variable absorption in graphene, which is naturally small in the optical region, and resonant structures to enhance it. Here we proposed a novel scheme to control evanescent coupling strength by inserting two graphene layers to a fr...
متن کاملWatch your step! A frustrated total internal reflection approach to forensic footwear imaging
Forensic image retrieval and processing are vital tools in the fight against crime e.g. during fingerprint capture. However, despite recent advances in machine vision technology and image processing techniques (and contrary to the claims of popular fiction) forensic image retrieval is still widely being performed using outdated practices involving inkpads and paper. Ongoing changes in governmen...
