Abstract: A time-to-frequency converter transforms an initial single-photon pulse into a transformed pulse such that the temporal waveform of the initial pulse is mapped to the spectrum of the transformed pulse. The time-to-frequency converter includes a dispersive optical element followed by a time lens. The spectrum of the transformed pulse is then measured to determine the arrival time of the initial pulse. The spectrum can be measured using a photon-counting spectrometer that spatially disperses the transformed pulse onto an single-photon detector array. Alternatively. an additional dispersive element can be used with the time-to-frequency converter to implement a time magnifier. The arrival time of the resulting time-magnified pulse can then be measured using time-correlated single-photon counting. This arrival time can then be divided by the magnification factor of the time magnifier to obtain the arrival time of the initial pulsc.

Abstract: A fluorescent single molecule emitter simultaneously transmits its identity, location, and cellular context through its emission patterns. A deep neural network (DNN) performs multiplexed single-molecule analysis to enable retrieving such information with high accuracy. The DNN can extract three-dimensional molecule location, orientation, and wavefront distortion with precision approaching the theoretical limit of information content of the image which will allow multiplexed measurements through the emission patterns of a single molecule.

Abstract: A compact, portable Raman spectrometer makes fast, sensitive standoff measurements at little to no risk of eye injury or igniting the materials being probed. This spectrometer uses differential Raman spectroscopy and ambient light measurements to measure point-and-shoot Raman signatures of dark or highly fluorescent materials at distances of 1 cm to 10 m or more. It scans the Raman pump beam(s) across the sample to reduce the risk of unduly heating or igniting the sample. Beam scanning also transforms the spectrometer into an instrument with a lower effective safety classification, reducing the risk of eye injury. The spectrometer's long standoff range automatic focusing make it easier to identify chemicals through clear and translucent obstacles, such as flow tubes, windows, and containers. And the spectrometer's components are light and small enough to be packaged in a handheld housing or housing suitable for a small robot to carry.

Abstract: Systems for and methods for in situ optimization of tunable light emitting diode sources are disclosed herein. During operation, the systems and methods obtain real-time feedback from an image sensor, and that feedback is used to tune the tunable LEDs. By tuning the tunable LEDs, the best values for the LED spectral output can be selected based on the feedback from the image sensor, and an image with improved contrast is obtained. Alternatively, the amount of time to obtain an image with acceptable contrast is reduced.

Abstract: A spectroscopic camera includes a spectroscopic element and a light receiver, and a method for correcting the spectroscopic camera includes causing light having a first wave number from a spectroscopic light source to be incident on the spectroscopic element, causing the light receiver to receive light having a second wave number and outputted from the spectroscopic element, generating a matrix representing the spectral characteristics of the light having the second wave number based on the output from the light receiver, and generating a correction matrix based on the inverse matrix of the matrix and storing the correction matrix in a storage section.

Abstract: A full-range imaging method doubles imaging range of conventional techniques by removing mirror images of an imaged object that limit conventional images to a “half-range” and that are caused in part by the loss of phase information in a detected signal. Phase information of the detected signal is reconstructed with an averaging technique based on a modulated phase induced in the detected signal during scanning.

Abstract: Methods, systems and devices are described that enable measurement and characterization of complex laser pulses by relying on three interferograms that are measured simultaneously. The described three-phase spectral interferometry (3 PSI) can meet the growing demand for optical recorders with long record and 1 ps or finer resolution. An example three-phase interferometric system includes a three-output optical splitter with a first input port to receive the input optical signal, a second input port to receive a reference optical signal with one or more unknown spectral characteristics. The three output ports of the optical splitter produce interferograms that correspond to relative phase shifts of substantially 120 degrees. Detectors are positioned to receive and measure the interferograms, which allows determination of the amplitude and phase of the input optical signal with very high accuracy. The described techniques include may improvements in the alignment, calibration and signal retrieval procedures associated with the 3PSI system.
