Isotropic Two-Dimensional Differentiation Based on Dual Dynamic Volume Holograms

Elasto-Thermodiffusive Response in a Two-Dimensional Transversely Isotropic Medium

The present article investigates the elasto-thermodiffusive interactions in a transversely isotropic elastic medium in the context of thermoelasticity with one relaxation time parameter and two relation time parameters. The resulting non-dimensional coupled equations are applied to a specific problem of a half-space in which the surface is free of tractions and is subjected to time-dependent th...

Volume Holograms

Multifunctional and compact spectrometers based on cylindrical beam volume holograms.

We propose a new class of slitless spectrometers using cylindrical beam volume holograms. These holograms disperse an input beam in one direction in an output plane while they do not affect the beam in the perpendicular direction. We show that the spectral mapping of the input beam can be obtained in one direction and the beam can be independently modified in the perpendicular direction. Using ...

Fully interconnected, two-dimensional neural arrays using wavelength-multiplexed volume holograms.

We present a compact method to provide independent weighted interconnections between every pixel in a two-dimensional input array and every pixel in a two-dimensional output array. The two input dimensions and two output dimensions are connected by a four-dimensional weight matrix consisting of wavelength-multiplexed volume holograms that use cryogenic spectral hole burning in a single holograp...

Control of volume holograms

Received May 9, 1991; revised manuscript received February 14, 1992; accepted February 25, 1992 The mismatch in the number of degrees of freedom supported by volume holograms and the boundary fields that control them limits the dynamic range of recorded holograms. For holograms controlled by using fractal sampling grids, the maximum dynamic range falls inversely with the minimum number of expos...
