Journal ArticleDOI

Atmospheric turbulence and orbital angular momentum of single photons for optical communication.

TL;DR: The work shows that the decoherence effect of atmospheric turbulence on single-photon communication systems based on orbital angular momentum states is important even for weak turbulence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measuring retinal vessel tortuosity in 10-year-old children: validation of the Computer-Assisted Image Analysis of the Retina (CAIAR) program.

TL;DR: Tortuosity indices based on changes in subdivided chord lengths showed optimal agreement with subjective assessment, and the relation of these indices to ethnicity and cardiovascular risk factors in childhood should be examined further.
Journal ArticleDOI

Higher-order Bessel waves produced by axicon-type computer-generated holograms

TL;DR: In this article, a theoretical analysis of axicon-type computer-generated holograms designed to produce higher-order Jn-Bessel waves is presented and verified, whose validity is not confined to the optical axis.
Journal ArticleDOI

A low cost adaptive optics system using a membrane mirror

TL;DR: The dynamic performance of the adaptive optics system is investigated in detail using a diffractive wavefront generator based on a ferroelectric spatial light modulator to produce wavefronts with time-varying aberrations.
