Optical coherence tomography by all-optical MEMS fiber endoscope
This paper presents the first successful demonstration of all-optical MEMS (microelectromechanical system) fiber endoscope for OCT (optical coherence tomography) measurement. A MEMS optical scanner for spatial light modulation has been assembled in the endoscope probe head (φ 6mm) with optical components and a photovoltaic cell. Actuation energy for the MEMS scanner is optically supplied by usi...
متن کاملOptically-modulated MEMS Scanning Endoscope for Optical Coherence Tomography
This paper presents a novel configuration of a MEMS scanning endoscope that is actuated by external optical modulation. Light at a wavelength in the 1550nm range is used to modulate a scanning MEMS mirror, and wavelength of 1310nm, commonly used for optical coherence tomography (OCT), is used for the probe beam. This novel approach provides for the operation of a scanning endoscope without the ...
متن کاملMEMS scanning micromirror for optical coherence tomography.
This paper describes an endoscopic-inspired imaging system employing a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) micromirror scanner to achieve beam scanning for optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging. Miniaturization of a scanning mirror using MEMS technology can allow a fully functional imaging probe to be contained in a package sufficiently small for utilization in a working channel of a sta...
متن کاملFiber-optic-bundle-based optical coherence tomography.
A fiber-optic-bundle-based optical coherence tomography (OCT) probe method is presented. The experimental results demonstrate this multimode optical fiber-bundle-based OCT system can achieve a lateral resolution of 12 microm and an axial resolution of 10 microm with a superluminescent diode source. This novel OCT imaging approach eliminates any moving parts in the probe and has a primary advant...
متن کاملComment on "Optical-fiber-based Mueller optical coherence tomography".
We comment on the recent Letter by Jiao et al. [Opt. Lett. 28, 1206 (2003)] in which a polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography system was presented. Interrogating a sample with two orthogonal incident polarization states cannot always recover birefringence correctly. A previously presented fiber-based polarization-sensitive system was inaccurately characterized, and its method of el...
