In this book, computational optical phase imaging techniques are presented along with Matlab codes that allow the reader to run their own simulations and gain a thorough understanding of the current state-of-the-art. The book focuses on modern applications of computational optical phase imaging in engineering measurements and biomedical imaging. Additionally, it discusses the future of computational optical phase imaging, especially in terms of system miniaturization and deep learning-based phase retrieval.

This book sets out to build bridges between the domains of photonic device physics and neural networks, providing a comprehensive overview of the emerging field of "neuromorphic photonics." It includes a thorough discussion of evolution of neuromorphic photonics from the advent of fiber-optic neurons to today’s state-of-the-art integrated laser neurons, which are a current focus of international research. Neuromorphic Photonics explores candidate interconnection architectures and devices for integrated neuromorphic networks, along with key functionality such as learning. It is written at a level accessible to graduate students, while also intending to serve as a comprehensive reference for experts in the field.

New approaches for the transmission of two-dimensional images through a single optical fiber are developed to take better advantages of the bandwidth and the relative immunity to interference offered by optical fibers. Approaches studied include phase-conjunction, matched filtering, axial-angle multiplexing, wavelength multiplexing and various combinations of the approaches. Possible system designs employing these approaches are presented and their merits are discussed. Contents: Parallel Transmission of Images through Single Optical Fibers; Transmission of Two-Dimensional Images Through a Single Optical Fiber by Wavelength-Time Encoding; Two-Dimensional Image Transmission through a Single Optical Fiber by Wavelength-Time Multiplexing; and Computer-Generated Holograms for Geometric Transformation.
