RESUMO

Diffraction from volume reflection gratings written in bulk photorefractive lithium niobate is modeled for the case of longitudinally varying index modulation depths. Numerical solutions to the Helmholtz equation are found in the spatial frequency domain, leading to transfer functions for the volume reflection grating. These transfer functions are then used to show the spatial frequency filtering effect of the volume reflection grating on input light fields containing 2D spatial information. It is shown, first through simulations and then by experiment, that the 0th order transmitted beam undergoes a 2D edge enhancement.

RESUMO

We first review transport of intensity and phase and show their use as a convenient tool to directly determine the unwrapped phase of an imaged object, either through conventional imaging or using digital holography. For both cases, either the traditional transport of intensity and phase, or with a modification, viz., electrically controllable transport of intensity and phase, can be used. The use of digital holography with transport of intensity for 3D topographic mapping of fingermarks coated with columnar thin films is shown as an illustrative application of this versatile technique.

RESUMO

Interference from co-propagation of the object and reference beams can be digitally recorded for a digital transmission hologram (DTH). Volume holograms, as in display holography, which have been traditionally recorded in bulk photopolymer or photorefractive materials using a counter-propagating object and writing beams, are read out using multispectral light and offer the advantage of excellent wavelength selectivity. In this work, the reconstruction from a single digital volume reflection hologram (DVRH) and wavelength multiplexed DVRHs derived from respective single and multi-wavelength DTHs is investigated, using coupled wave theory and an angular spectral approach. The dependence of the diffraction efficiency on volume grating thickness, wavelength, and incident angle of the reading beam is studied.

RESUMO

The transport of intensity equation (TIE) is a non-interferometric phase retrieval method that originates from the imaginary part of the Helmholtz equation and is equivalent to the law of conservation of energy. From the real part of the Helmholtz equation, the transport of phase equation (TPE), which represents the Eikonal equation in the presence of diffraction, can be derived. The amplitude and phase for an arbitrary optical field should satisfy these coupled equations simultaneously during propagation. In this work, the coupling between the TIE and TPE is exploited to improve the phase retrieval solutions from the TIE. Specifically, a non-recursive fast Fourier transform (FFT)-based phase retrieval method using both the TIE and TPE is demonstrated. Based on the FFT-based TIE solution, a correction factor calculated by the TPE is introduced to improve the phase retrieval results.

RESUMO

A simple non-interferometric incoherent light ray propagation model is introduced to perform three-dimensional profiling of transparent objects with typical thicknesses of the order of mm to cm by analyzing the distorted captured image behind the object. A two-dimensional cosine fringe is used as the incident reference image, whose periodicity is markedly altered by the shape of the object. By monitoring the local change in the period, the surface profile is simulated and optimized to achieve minimal error with experimental data and thus determine the final morphology. Our proposed method is simple, robust, straightforward, and single-shot, and can be used with coherent or incoherent illumination. Its feasibility for more complex applications is verified experimentally through rigorous error calculation. Moreover, the application of this technique for arbitrary transparent objects is theoretically attainable and promising.

RESUMO

Despite impressive advances in the treatment of prostate cancer with various efficacious inhibitors along the androgen/androgen receptor axis, eventual development of incurable metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) is inevitable and remains a major clinical challenge. Constitutively active androgen receptor (AR) spliced variants have emerged as primary means of resistance to anti-androgens and androgen synthesis inhibitors. The alternatively spliced AR variant, ARv7, has attracted significant interest due to its constitutively active status in CRPC that drives androgen-independence. Factors that are involved in regulating ARv7 levels in CRPC are not clearly known. We recently demonstrated that a protein kinase, T-LAK cell-originated protein kinase (TOPK) level correlates with the aggressiveness of prostate cancer and its invasive behavior. In this study, we investigated whether TOPK plays a role in driving androgen-independence in prostate cancer cells. Our data demonstrate that TOPK overexpression in androgen-dependent LNCaP and VCaP induces ARv7 and drives androgen-independent growth. On the other hand, pharmacological inhibition of TOPK in androgen-independent LNCaP95 and 22Rv1 represses AR transactivation, and AR stability. In summary, this study illustrates a direct role of TOPK in regulating ARv7 and driving androgen-independence in prostate cancer cells.

RESUMO

A simple and robust technique of Moiré topography with single-image capture and incorporating digital filtering along with a four-step digitally implemented phase-shifting method is introduced for three-dimensional (3D) surface mapping. Feature details in the order of tens to hundreds of microns can be achieved using interferometrically generated structured light to illuminate the object surface. Compared to the traditional optical phase-shifting method, a digital phase-shifting method based on Fourier processing is implemented with computer-generated sinusoidal patterns derived from the recorded deformed fringes. This enables a single capture of the image that can be used to reconstruct the 3D topography of the surface. Single-shot imaging is simple to implement experimentally and avoids errors in introducing the correct phase shifts. The feasibility of this technique is verified experimentally, and applications to metallic surfaces are demonstrated.

RESUMO

The performance of direct and unwrapped phase retrieval, which combines digital holography with the transport of intensity, is examined in detail in this paper. In this technique, digital holography is used to numerically reconstruct the intensities at different planes around the image plane, and phase retrieval is achieved by the transport of intensity. Digital holography with transport of intensity is examined for inline and off-axis geometries. The effect of twin images in the inline case is evaluated. Phase-shifting digital holography with transport of intensity is introduced. The performance of digital holography with transport of intensity is compared with traditional off-axis single- and dual-wavelength techniques, which employ standard phase unwrapping algorithms. Simulations and experiments are performed to determine and compare the accuracy of phase retrieval through a mean-squared-error figure of merit as well as the computational speeds of the various methods.

RESUMO

Multi-layered metamaterial structures show promise in a wide variety of optical applications such as superlenses, electromagnetic cloaking, tunable filters, sensors, and spatial light modulators. Optical transmission analysis of multilayer metallo-dielectric stacks with overall thickness less than the wavelength of light can be modeled using effective medium theory and the Berreman matrix method. For multilayer anisotropic stacks of arbitrary thickness, a rigorous 4 × 4 transfer matrix embodiment is typically used. In this work, a 2 × 2 anisotropic transfer matrix method is developed to analyze optical propagation through multilayer uniaxial stacks of arbitrary thicknesses. Optical transmission of a multilayer silver-zinc oxide stack deposited on a quartz substrate is modeled with this 2 × 2 anisotropic transfer matrix method and reconciled with experimental observations. Results indicate that this numerical approach is applicable to in situ assessment of the complex refractive indices of constituent metal and dielectric layers. Additionally, the anisotropic 2 × 2 transfer matrix method enables the possibility of modeling the transmission of the same metallo-dielectric structure deposited on an electro-optic, uniaxial substrate. Simulation results predict that adjusting the bias field across the substrate results in an electrically tunable transmission filter.

RESUMO

Correlation of two-dimensional digitally recorded holograms is introduced as a novel approach for object recognition without the need for quantitative assessment of the retrieved complex field, based on the fact that a hologram contains the three-dimensional information of the object. Actual objects with different three-dimensional features such as depth and surface roughness are assessed through processing of the correlation of their two-dimensional holograms. Correlation peak values are extracted as a metric to evaluate correlation of three-dimensional objects. The effect of hologram windowing size on correlation of three-dimensional objects is investigated, and improvements in computation time and dynamic range are assessed. Critical figures of merit used for assessment of correlation of images are applied to the correlation of holograms for object recognition.

RESUMO

Three-dimensional (3D) face recognition has been a crucial task in human biometric verification and identification. A digital correlation method of a computer-generated hologram (CGH) for 3D face recognition is proposed, which encodes 3D data into a 2D hologram for recognition. The 3D face models are preprocessed and compressed to into groups of feature points. The CGH templates corresponding to the 3D feature points are generated by point- and layer-oriented algorithms based on three different numerical algorithms to encode depth values into 2D holograms. A 2D digital correlation is performed between the CGH templates. It is demonstrated that the generated CGHs templates could be effectively classified based on the correlation performance metrics of discrimination ratio, peak-to-correlation plane energy, and peak-to-noise ratio. With the essence of the CGH algorithm being the conversion of 3D data to a 2D hologram, the proposed encoding and decoding method has great advantages in reducing computational efforts and potential applications in 3D face recognition, storage, and display.

RESUMO

High frequency of mortality in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is vastly associated with the invasive and metastatic nature of these cancer cells. Little is known about the factors involved in this invasive/metastatic process. The current challenge in the treatment of these patients is the lack of viable options besides gemcitabine. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of PDZ-binding kinase (PBK)/T-LAK cell-originated protein kinase (TOPK) in invasive PDAC cells and to determine whether PBK/TOPK expression drives invasiveness in PDAC. Using gain-of-function and loss-of-function studies in established and patient-derived xenograft-PDAC cell lines, and examining patient-derived archival tissue samples, we demonstrate for the first time that PBK/TOPK is upregulated in pancreatic cancer and expression levels are closely associated with the invasive property of pancreatic cancer cells. Modulation of PBK/TOPK causally regulates the invasive ability of PDAC cells. We also demonstrate that two key players in metastatic invasion, matrix metalloproteinases-2 (MMP-2) and MMP-9 gelatinase activity and gene promoter activities, are regulated by PBK/TOPK. Moreover, we demonstrate for the first time that PBK/TOPK provides stability of an oncoprotein, c-MYC, which transcriptionally regulates MMP-2 and MMP-9 in these invasive PDAC cells. Our in vitro and in situ data corroborate that PBK/TOPK is closely associated with the invasive nature of PDAC and reveal a novel mechanism by which the metastatic behavior of human pancreatic cancer cells is regulated. These findings provide a rationale for targeting PBK/TOPK for the therapeutic intervention of invasive/metastatic pancreatic cancer in human.

RESUMO

We propose a technique in which intensity images are reconstructed from a digital hologram to provide inputs for the transport-of-intensity equation for unwrapped phase recovery. By doing this, we avoid shifting of the sample or the camera in the experiment, a method commonly employed while using the method of transport-of-intensity equation for phase retrieval. Computer simulations as well as experimental results have been demonstrated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed idea. The underlying numerical technique can also be viewed as an alternative to existing phase-unwrapping algorithms.

RESUMO

Propagation of optical fields is governed by the Helmholtz equation or the paraxial wave equation. Transport of intensity is a noninterferometric method to find the phase of an object by recording optical intensities at different distances of propagation. The transport of intensity equation results from the imaginary part of the complex paraxial wave equation and is equivalent to the principle of conservation of energy. The real part of the paraxial wave equation yields the Eikonal equation in the presence of diffraction. The amplitude and phase of the optical field must therefore simultaneously satisfy both the real and imaginary parts of the paraxial wave equation during propagation. In this paper, we demonstrate, with illustrative examples, how to exploit this to retrieve the phase through recursive calculations of the phase and intensity. This is achieved using the transport of intensity equation, which is solved using standard techniques, and the real part of the paraxial wave equation, or the transport of phase equation, which is solved using a Gauss-Seidel iterative method. Examples include calculation of the imaged phase induced through self-phase modulation of a focused laser beam in a liquid and the imaged phase of light reflected from a surface, which yields the 3D surface profile.

RESUMO

Fresnel transform implementation methods using numerical preprocessing techniques are investigated in this paper. First, it is shown that up-sampling dramatically reduces the minimum reconstruction distance requirements and allows maximal signal recovery by eliminating aliasing artifacts which typically occur at distances much less than the Rayleigh range of the object. Second, zero-padding is employed to arbitrarily scale numerical resolution for the purpose of resolution matching multiple holograms, where each hologram is recorded using dissimilar geometric or illumination parameters. Such preprocessing yields numerical resolution scaling at any distance. Both techniques are extensively illustrated using experimental results.
