Item Characterization of spatial–temporal patterns in dynamic speckle sequences using principal component analysis(Optical Engineering, 2016) López Alonso, José Manuel; Grumel, Eduardo; Cap, Nelly Lucía; Trivi, Marcelo; Rabal, Héctor; Alda Serrano, JavierAbstract. Speckle is being used as a characterization tool for the analysis of the dynamics of slow-varying phenomena occurring in biological and industrial samples at the surface or near-surface regions. The retrieved data take the form of a sequence of speckle images. These images contain information about the inner dynamics of the biological or physical process taking place in the sample. Principal component analysis (PCA) is able to split the original data set into a collection of classes. These classes are related to processes showing different dynamics. In addition, statistical descriptors of speckle images are used to retrieve information on the characteristics of the sample. These statistical descriptors can be calculated in almost real time and provide a fast monitoring of the sample. On the other hand, PCA requires a longer computation time, but the results contain more information related to spatial–temporal patterns associated to the process under analysis. This contribution merges both descriptions and uses PCA as a preprocessing tool to obtain a collection of filtered images, where statistical descriptors are evaluated on each of them. The method applies to slow-varying biological and industrial processes.Item Maculopatía por puntero láser. ¿Un nuevo problema de salud pública?(Archivos de la Sociedad Española de Oftalmología, 2016) Alda Serrano, Javier; Gómez Sanz, Fernando Javier; González Martín-Moro, Julio- Project number: 97
Item Generación de materiales y recursos para la implantación del Plan de Lenguas para la Internacionalización PLI en la Facultad de Óptica y Optometría(2016) Sánchez Pérez, María Isabel; Alda Serrano, Javier; Carreño Sánchez, Fernando; Cabrero Granado, Eduardo; Peces Peña, María Dolores; Garrido Mercado, Rafaela; Puell Marín, María Cinta; Martín Pérez, Yolanda; López Alonso, José Manuel; Gómez Calderón, Óscar; Melle Hernández, Sonia; Movilla Serrano, Jesús María Item Seebeck nanoantennas for the detection and characterization of infrared radiation(Optics Express, 2014) Briones, Edgar; Cuadrado, Alexander; Briones, Joel; Díaz de León, Ramón; Martínez Antón, Juan Carlos; McMurtry, Stefan; Hehn, Michel; Montaigne, François; Alda Serrano, Javier; González, Francisco JavierArrays of metallic thermocouples in the shape of spiral nanoantennas are proposed as infrared detectors, which use the thermoelectric properties of the metallic interfaces to generate electrical DC signals. The responsivity of these types of antennas is evaluated from both theoretical and numerical perspectives pointing out its potential as infrared sensors. Moreover, the same structures can be used to characterize the state of polarization of the optical near fields with a spatial resolution comparable to the wavelength.Item Measurement limitations in knife-edge tomographic phase retrieval of focused IR laser beams(Optics Express, 2012) Silva López, Manuel; Rico García, José María; Alda Serrano, JavierAn experimental setup to measure the three-dimensional phase-intensity distribution of an infrared laser beam in the focal region has been presented. It is based on the knife-edge method to perform a tomographic reconstruction and on a transport of intensity equation-based numerical method to obtain the propagating wavefront. This experimental approach allows us to characterize a focalized laser beam when the use of image or interferometer arrangements is not possible. Thus, we have recovered intensity and phase of an aberrated beam dominated by astigmatism. The phase evolution is fully consistent with that of the beam intensity along the optical axis. Moreover, this method is based on an expansion on both the irradiance and the phase information in a series of Zernike polynomials. We have described guidelines to choose a proper set of these polynomials depending on the experimental conditions and showed that, by abiding these criteria, numerical errors can be reduced.Item Micromachined silicon lenses for terahertz applications(Infrared Physics & Technology, 2013) Bueno, Juan; López Camacho, Elena; Silva López, Manuel; Rico García, José María; Llombart, N; Alda Serrano, Javier; Costa-Krämer, José LuisSilicon microlenses are a very important tool for coupling terahertz (THz) radiation into antennas and detectors in integrated circuits. They can be used in a large array structures at this frequency range reducing considerably the crosstalk between the pixels. Drops of photoresist have been deposited and their shape transferred into the silicon by means of a Reactive Ion Etching (RIE) process. Large silicon lenses with a few mm diameter (between 1.5 and 4.5 mm) and hundreds of μm height (between 50 and 350 μm) have been fabricated. The surface of such lenses has been characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), resulting in a surface roughness of about ∼3 μm, good enough for any THz application. The beam profile at the focal plane of such lenses has been measured at a wavelength of 10.6 μm using a tomographic knife-edge technique and a CO2 laser.Item Diffractive optical elements with square concentric rings of equal width(Microwave and Optical Technology Letters, 2010) Alda Serrano, Javier; Sánchez Brea, Luis Miguel; Salgado Remacha, Francisco Javier; Rico García, José MaríaA diffractive optical element having equal-width concentric square rings is analyzed in this article. This constant width makes possible its realization using spatial light modulators or square pixels phase screens. It allows a simple analytical treatment, and the element is also simulated using the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld approach. An experimental verification of its performance has been compared with the simulated results.Item Optimal phase distributions for polygonal Fresnel lenses(Proceedings of the Fourth European Conference on Antennas and Propagation, 2010) Alda Serrano, Javier; Salgado Remacha, Francisco Javier; Sánchez Brea, Luis Miguel; Rico García, José María; González, Francisco JavierPolygonal Fresnel zone plates can be configured in a variety of forms depending on the number of sides of the polygon and the number of phase steps used. This contribution deals with some specific polygonal designs that tessellate the plane: triangles, squares, and hexagons. The phase distribution is chosen as a continuous one to form a polygonal kinoform. The selected designs have been simulated and its behaviour compared. Although their performance is worse than the circular Fresnel plate, they may present some other advantages as the tessellation capability, and the possibility to fabricate them as extruded profiles.
