Comparative analysis of wavenumber response in phase contrast and spiral phase imaging systems for plasma diagnostics

Jigme Zangpo, Hirokazu Kobayashi, Haruki Kawaguchi +1

Phase contrast imaging (PCI) has been used for decades to study plasma density fluctuations, but its wavenumber response is constrained by the phase plate groove width and beam…

Phase-edge imaging using q-plate shifts for faster and simpler microscopy

Jigme Zangpo, Hirokazu Kobayashi, Ryo Yasuhara

We present a simplified method for isolating the edges of a phase object from the edges of an amplitude object using a 4f system with an off-axis q-plate. Instead of the four off-a…

Single-pixel edge enhancement of object via convolutional filtering with localized vortex phase

Jigme Zangpo, Hirokazu Kobayashi

Microscopy is an essential tool in imaging research, and the edge-enhanced microscope by using the vortex filter is of particular interest as an optical information processing that…

Isolation of phase edges using off-axis q-plate filters

Jigme Zangpo, Hirokazu Kobayashi

Edge-enhanced microscopes with q-plate have been attracted more attention to enhance the edges of phase-amplitude objects in biological sample due to their capability for all-direc…

Edge-Enhanced Microscopy of Comlplex Object using Scalar and Vectorial Vortex Filtering

Jigme Zangpo, Tomohiro Kawabe, Hirokazu Kobayashi

Recently, system containing a q-plate has been used to perform edge detection and enhancement of amplitude and phase objects. However, only few studies have concentrated on ed…
