Dispersion cancelled low coherence interferometry
Even-order dispersion cancellation, an effect previously identified with frequencyentangled photons, is demonstrated experimentally for the first time with a linear, classical interferometer. A combination of a broad bandwidth laser and a high resolution spectrometer was used to measure the intensity correlations between anti-correlated optical frequencies. Only 14% broadening of the correlatio...
متن کاملLow-coherence optical fibre speckle interferometry
This paper describes the development of optical fibre low-coherence speckle interferometers capable of three-dimensional surface profiling with a resolution of 10–20 μm and a depth range of typically tens of centimetres. The technique is absolute, enabling the measurement of steps and through holes. The inclusion of optical fibres enables compact, flexible configurations to be realized, allevia...
متن کاملLow coherence interferometry approach for aiding fine needle aspiration biopsies.
We present portable preclinical low-coherence interference (LCI) instrumentation for aiding fine needle aspiration biopsies featuring the second-generation LCI-based biopsy probe and an improved scoring algorithm for tissue differentiation. Our instrument and algorithm were tested on 38 mice with cultured tumor mass and we show the specificity, sensitivity, and positive predictive value of tumo...
متن کاملFourier-domain low-coherence interferometry for light-scattering spectroscopy.
We present a novel method for obtaining depth-resolved spectra for determining scatterer size through elastic-scattering properties. Depth resolution is achieved with a white-light source in a Michelson interferometer with the mixed signal and reference fields dispersed by a spectrograph. The spectrum is Fourier transformed to yield the axial spatial cross correlation between the signal and ref...
متن کاملSpectral-domain low coherence interferometry/optical coherence tomography system for fine needle breast biopsy guidance.
A novel technology and instrumentation for fine needle aspiration (FNA) breast biopsy guidance is presented. This technology is based on spectral-domain low coherence interferometry (SD-LCI). The method, apparatus, and preliminary in vitro/in vivo results proving the viability of the method and apparatus are presented in detail. An advanced tissue classification algorithm, preliminarily tested ...
