We studied periodic aperture imaging with various subaperture configurations in terms of their point spread functions, optical transfer functions, and imaging quality. A circular-shaped unit cell provides the best performance compared to square- and cross-shaped unit cells when the total aperture size and collection area are kept the same. Moreover, decreasing the separation among the unit cells or the number of subapertures also improve the imaging performance. Results have potential applications in optical periodic aperture telescopes, diffraction masks, and coded aperture imaging. (C) 2017 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE)

We develop a new compressive spectral imaging modality that utilizes a coded aperture and a photon-sieve for dispersion. The 3D spectral data cube is successfully reconstructed with as little as two shots using sparse recovery
A Parametric Estimation Approach to Instantaneous Spectral Imaging
Öktem, Sevinç Figen; Davila, Joseph M (2014-12-01)
Spectral imaging, the simultaneous imaging and spectroscopy of a radiating scene, is a fundamental diagnostic technique in the physical sciences with widespread application. Due to the intrinsic limitation of two-dimensional (2D) detectors in capturing inherently three-dimensional (3D) data, spectral imaging techniques conventionally rely on a spatial or spectral scanning process, which renders them unsuitable for dynamic scenes. In this paper, we present a nonscanning (instantaneous) spectral imaging techn...
Discrete wavelet transform based shift invariant analysis scheme for transient sound signals
Wasim, Ahmad; Hacıhabiboğlu, Hüseyin; Kondoz, Ahmet (2010-09-06)
Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) has gained widespread recognition and popularity in signal processing due to its ability to underline and represent time-varying spectral properties of many transient and other nonstationary signals. However, DWT is a shift-variant transform. This shift-variance is a major problem with the use of DWT for transient signal analysis and pattern recognition applications. A number of modified forms of DWT have been investigated in recent years that provide approximate shift-invar...
Design and Optimization of Nanoantennas for Nano-Optical Applications
Işıklar, Göktuğ; Ergül, Özgür Salih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2020-9)
In this study, design and simulation of plasmonic nanoantenna structures to obtain high power enhancement capabilities at optical frequencies, as well as utilization of nanoantennas for imaging and sensing applications are presented. Plasmonic characteristics of nanoantennas, which depend on many parameters, such as material, frequency, geometry, and size, are investigated in detail via computational analyses of various nanoantenna structures. Numerical solutions of electromagnetic problems are performe...
Photoluminescence specroscopy of CdS and GaSe
Seyhan, Ayşe; Turan, Raşit; Department of Physics (2003)
With the use of photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy one can able to get a great deal of information about electronic structure and optical processes in semiconductors by the aid of optical characterization. Among various compound semiconductors, Cadmium Sulfide (CdS) and Gallium Selenide (GaSe) are interesting materials for their PL emissions. Particularly, due to its strong anisotropy, investigation of GaSe necessitates new experimental approaches to the PL technique. We have designed, fabricated and used ...
