Light propagation in human dentin exhibits a strong directional dependence featuring the long-known optical magnification property. We hypothesized that this anisotropic effect is caused by multiple scattering at the dentin tubules, and not by fiberoptic effects, as had been previously assumed. We performed measurements of the transmitted intensity from dentin disks and compared them with Monte...

We explore the spatial frequency property of the far-field diffraction intensity pattern of an optical vortex after passing through an annular aperture in detail. The result reveals that the spatial spectrum consists of alternate bright and dark rings and, in particular, the number of the bright rings is nicely identical to the absolute value of the topological charge. Based on this property, w...

This paper proposes a multiple hypothesis tracking for multiple object tracking with moving camera. The proposed model makes use of the stability of sparse optical flow along with the invariant colour property under size and pose variation, by merging the colour property of objects into optical flow tracking. To evaluate the algorithm five different videos are selected from broadcast horse race...

An Al-N system optical absorption layer has been developed, to be used for Al-based metal mesh electrodes on touch screen panels. The triple-layered electrode effectively suppresses the optical reflection in both visible light and the blue color region and exhibits excellent wet etching property that accommodates micro-fabrication. Due to its high noise immunity and contact sensitivity originat...

In this paper, we report our numerical simulation on the electronic-optical properties of the phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes (PHOLEDs) devices. In order to calculate the electrical and optical characteristics such as the transport behavior of carriers, recombination kinetics, and emission property, we undertake the finite element method (FEM). Our model includes Poisson’s equation...

The unique superiority of transformation optics devices designed from coordinate transformation is their capability of recovering both ray trajectory and optical path length in light manipulation. However, very few experiments have been done so far to verify this dual-recovery property from viewpoints of both ray trajectory and optical path length simultaneously. The experimental difficulties a...
