Scan-less hyperspectral dual-comb single-pixel-imaging in both amplitude and phase

Opt Express. 2017 Sep 4;25(18):21947-21957. doi: 10.1364/OE.25.021947.

Abstract

We have developed a hyperspectral imaging scheme that involves a combination of dual-comb spectroscopy and Hadamard-transform-based single-pixel imaging. The scheme enables us to obtain 12,000 hyperspectral images of amplitude and phase at a spatial resolution of 46 µm without mechanical scanning. The spectral resolution given by the data point interval in the frequency domain is 20 MHz and the comb mode interval is 100 MHz over a spectral range of 1.2 THz centered at 191.5 THz. As an initial demonstration of our scheme, we obtained spectroscopic images of a standard test chart through an etalon plate. The thickness of an absorptive chromium-coated layer on a float-glass substrate was determined to be 70 nm from the hyperspectral phase images in the near-infrared wavelength region.
