Abstract:Multimode fibers (MMFs) have a very large number of propagating modes per unit area and therefore allow for imaging with a very large number of pixels relative to their diameter. This makes MMFs perfect candidates for ultrathin endoscopes in applications such as deep brain imaging. However, the accuracy of the input-output relation that is needed, e.g., for distal spot scanning without moving parts, requires a new calibration after the fiber position or temperature has been significantly altered.While neural n… Show more
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.
