Optical imaging through complex scattering media is one of the major technical challenges with important applications in many research fields, ranging from biomedical imaging to astronomical telescopy to spatially multiplexed optical communications. Various approaches for imaging through a turbid layer have been recently proposed that exploit the advantage of object information encoded in correlations of the random optical fields. Here we propose and experimentally demonstrate an alternative approach for single-shot imaging of objects hidden behind an opaque scattering layer. The proposed technique relies on retrieving the interference fringes projected behind the scattering medium, which leads to complex field reconstruction, from far-field laser speckle interferometry with two-point intensity correlation measurement. We demonstrate that under suitable conditions, it is possible to perform imaging to reconstruct the complex amplitude of objects situated at different depths.
We propose an experimental technique for two dimensional Jones matrix imaging of transparent and anisotropic sample using polarization interferometer. Employing this technique, the Jones matrix components are measured for polarizer and quarter wave plate and results are compared with theoretical results of the samples.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
