• openAccess   Fractal generalized zone plates 

      Mendoza-Yero, Omel; Fernández Alonso, Mercedes; Mínguez-Vega, Gladys; Lancis, Jesús; Climent, Vicent; Monsoriu, Juan A. Optical Society of America (2009)
      The construction of fractal generalized zone plates (FraGZPs) from a set of periodic diffractive optical elements with circular symmetry is proposed. This allows us to increase the number of foci of a conventional fractal ...
    • openAccess   Optical filters with fractal transmission spectra based on diffractive optics 

      Mendoza-Yero, Omel; Mínguez-Vega, Gladys; Fernández Alonso, Mercedes; Lancis, Jesús; Tajahuerce, Enrique; Climent, Vicent; Monsoriu, Juan A. Optical Society of America (2009)
      The duality between the axial irradiance distribution originated by any circularly symmetric diffracting aperture under monochromatic illumination and its diffracted spectral intensity at a fixed on-axis point under broadband ...
    • openAccess   Poincaré-sphere representation of phase-mostly twisted nematic liquid crystal spatial light modulators 

      Durán, Vicente; Clemente Pesudo, Pedro Javier; Martínez-León, Lluís; Climent, Vicent; Lancis, Jesús Institute of Physics (2009)
      We establish necessary conditions in order to design a phase-only wave front modulation system from a liquid crystal display. These conditions determine the dependence of the polarization state of the light emerging from ...
    • openAccess   Spatial-chirp compensation in dynamical holograms reconstructed with ultrafast lasers 

      Martínez-León, Lluís; Clemente Pesudo, Pedro Javier; Tajahuerce, Enrique; Mínguez-Vega, Gladys; Mendoza-Yero, Omel; Fernández Alonso, Mercedes; Lancis, Jesús; Climent, Vicent; Andrés, Pedro American Institute of Physics (2008)
      A computer generated hologram (CGH) reconstructed with a sub-100-fs laser pulse at the focal plane of a conventional refractive lens experiences a large amount of spatial chirp. We report the shaping of a 12 fs laser pulsed ...
    • openAccess   Spectral analysis of femtosecond pulse diffraction through binary diffractive optical elements: theory and experiment 

      Mendoza-Yero, Omel; Mínguez-Vega, Gladys; Lancis, Jesús; Tajahuerce, Enrique; Climent, Vicent Optical Society of America (2008)
      We report on the changes in the spectrum of a femtosecond pulse originated by diffraction of the ultrashort waveform through a circularly symmetric binary diffractive optical element. The analysis is performed in the ...
    • openAccess   Use of polar decomposition of Mueller matrices for optimizing the phase response of a liquid-crystal- on-silicon display 

      Martínez-León, Lluís; Clemente Pesudo, Pedro Javier; Durán, Vicente; Climent, Vicent; Tajahuerce, Enrique; Lancis, Jesús Optical Society of America (2008)
      We provide experimental measurement of the Mueller matrices corresponding to an on-state liquid-crystal-on-silicon display as a function of the addressed voltage. The polar decomposition of the Mueller matrices determines ...
