چکیده

Objective: To measure various optical parameters in skin sample of chicken. Methods: We illuminated the chicken breast skin tissues with collimated radiation of 400-700 nm Nd-YAG pumped dye laser, and measured skin optical properties for dry and hydrated sample in vitro. Total reflectance and transmitted intensities were recorded by which scattering, absorption and anisotropic factors of the sample obtained using double integrating sphere setup. Results: The in vitro optical parameters are higher then in vivo measurements. Hydration of skin is found to influence its scattering properties. Dry sample scatter less then hydrated sample. Conclusion: Our in vitro results are in agreements with other data available in literature. (Rawal Med J 2005;30:5-8).

Towards Measurement of Polarization Properties of Skin using the Ellipsometry Technique

Introduction: The human skin is an active medium from the optical point of view. Therefore, the diagnostic and therapeutic techniques employing light are increasing. Current optical techniques are based on the measurement of the intensity of reflected absorbed or backscattered light from or within skin. Studies have shown that biological tissues, and in particular skin, demonstrate polarization...

Investigation to Reliability of Optical Communication Links using Auto-Track Subsystems in Presence of Different Beam Divergences

In this paper, we investigate the effects of auto-tracking subsystem together with different beam divergences on SNR, BER and stability of FSO communication links. For this purpose we compute the values of power, SNR and BER on receiver, based on analytic formula of Gaussian beam on receiver plane. In this computation the atmospheric effects including absorption, scattering and turbulence are c...
