and optical communications. Due to limitations in birefringence, infrared transmission, and crystal growth, high-performance long-wave infrared birefringent crystals have rarely been reported.

Birefringence is an optical property that can be used to determine the degree of order, orientation, size and shape of PNTs. In this work, a custom-built optical apparatus is used to quantitatively ...

birefringence and depolarization information. Next, the researchers plan to use the intravascular imaging system to image plaques in ex vivo human coronary arteries. By comparing the optical ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of a polarization-sensitive optical coherence reflectometry system to predict the development of chronic lesions based on acute changes in ...

When linearly polarized light encounters a magnetic surface, it also changes, a phenomenon known as the magneto-optical Kerr effect. After separating out the property of birefringence by sending ...

where SAM-OAM coupling takes place within the optical interference field during the process of light-matter interactions, resulting in the formation of a kind of photoinduced periodic birefringence ...

Cellulose, the main structural component of most plants, is an important biomaterial used for millennia to make clothing, paper and wooden structures. Cellulose nanofibers are a more recent ...

Researchers meticulously measured the optical birefringence of highly aligned cellulose nanofibers, paving the way for sharper television, computer, and smartphone screens. A team at the Institute ...
