20150133778 | Diagnostic Device for Dermatology with Merged OCT and Epiluminescence Dermoscopy - Systems and methods for use of the imaging system are presented. In an embodiment, the imaging system includes a first optical path, a second optical path, a plurality of optical elements, a detector, and a processor. The first optical path guides a first beam of radiation associated with epiluminescence while the second optical path guides a second beam of radiation associated with optical coherence tomography. The plurality of optical elements transmit the first and second beams of radiation onto a sample. The detector generates optical data associated with the first and second beams of radiation returning from the sample. The optical data associated with the first and second beams of radiation correspond to substantially non-coplanar regions of the sample. The processor correlates the optical data of the first beam with the optical data of the second beam and generates an image of the sample. | 05-14-2015 |
20140328556 | Integrated System for Active Equalization of Chromatic Dispersion - A system for chromatic dispersion compensation is presented. The system includes an optical splitting element, a plurality of optical elements, and a plurality of waveguides. The optical splitting element is configured to generate at least a first beam of radiation and a second beam of radiation. The plurality of optical elements is configured to identify one or more optical paths amongst a plurality of optical paths for the first beam of radiation to travel. One of the plurality of waveguides disposed in one of the plurality of optical paths has group delay and dispersion coefficient properties per unit length that are different from group delay and dispersion coefficient properties per unit length of another one of the plurality of waveguides disposed in another one of the plurality of optical paths. The group delay and dispersion coefficient properties per unit length compensate for a chromatic dispersion associated with the second beam of radiation. | 11-06-2014 |

20140118748 | Integrated Delay Line for Optical Coherence Tomography - A system includes a waveguide that guides a beam of radiation, a variable delay unit, and a polarization-dependent modulating unit. The variable delay unit modulates the refractive index in a region, and the waveguide makes a plurality of passes through the region. The polarization-dependent element compensates for birefringence associated with the beam of radiation and includes a polarization splitter and a plurality of modulating elements. The polarization splitter has a first arm and a second arm that each include modulation segments. The beam of radiation is split between the first arm and the second arm and recombined after traversing the modulation segments. The recombination of the beam generates a first polarized beam of radiation and a second polarized beam of radiation. The plurality of modulating elements apply a first and second modulation to the first polarized beam of radiation and the second polarized beam of radiation respectively. | 05-01-2014 |
