    Abstract: Interferometric focusing (IF), rather than conventional geometric focusing, of excitation light onto a guide-star that is embedded deeply in tissue, increases its fluorescence intensity. The method can extend the depth of wavefront measurement and improve correction inside of tissues because of its ability to suppress both scattering of diffuse light and aberration of ballistic light. The results showed more than two times improvement in SNR and RMS error of the wavefront measurement. Although only ballistic light in the excitation path is corrected, the intensity after wavefront correction increased by 1.5 times. When applying IF to a two-photon microscope with a near infra-red laser, this method would further extend the measurement depth and achieve high SNR for the wavefront sensor.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide an imaging system and method using adaptive optics and optimization algorithms for imaging through highly scattering media in oil reservoir applications and lab-based petroleum research. Two-/multi-photon fluorescence microscopy is used in conjunction with adaptive optics for enhanced imaging and detection capabilities in scattering reservoir media. Advanced fluorescence techniques are used to allow for super-penetration imaging to compensate for aberrations both in and out of the field of interest, extending the depth at which pore geometry can be imaged within a rock matrix beyond the current capability of confocal microscopy. The placement of a Deformable Mirror or Spatial Light Modulator for this application, in which scattering and index mismatch are dominant aberrations, is in an optical plane that is conjugate to the pupil plane of the objective lens in the imaging system. The invention images stationary and dynamic nanoparticles, surfactants, fluid-fluid interfaces and tracers which can be used to study properties such as diffusion, mobility, adhesion, stickiness and wettability within the 3D structure of cores and thin sections.

    Abstract: An imaging or sensor system comprises a transmitter assembly, a receiver assembly and a control unit. The transmitter assembly defines an outgoing optical beam transmission path with respect to a target surface and the receiver assembly defines a return optical signal transmission path from the target surface. Each of the paths includes transmission through or reflection from at least one microdisplay device comprising a plurality of controllable elements for selective placement in a transmit mode for transmission of light along the transmission paths. A control unit selectively places the microdisplay device elements in the transmission mode.

    Abstract: In order to investigate a specimen (30) with the aid of a microscope (20), dye particles (40, 42) in the specimen (30) are excited to fluoresce with the aid of a first illumination light beam (24). Fluorescent light proceeding from the specimen (30) is directed via an optical arrangement (34) onto an areal sensor (36), the optical arrangement (34) acting on the fluorescent light in such a way that sub-beams of the fluorescent light interfere with themselves, so that interference patterns produced as a result of the interference are imaged on a sensitive surface of the areal sensor (36) and sensed thereby. Positions of the dye particles (40, 42) within the specimen (30) are ascertained as a function of the interference patterns.
