<title>PLZT ceramics as optical phantom for simulation of light scattering in eye segments and other biological tissues</title>
ABSTRACT Coefficients of light absorption ta and scattering for biological tissues lie within a broad range - minimum ones forhealthy eye tissues up to higher values (fe. t a 0.3 cm and i = 40 cm' at 633 nm for muscle tissues ) for other andmainly turbid tissues. The specific feature of the transparent PLZT ceramics (having absorption t a > 0. 1 cm in the visible and in the near infrared spectrum range) is electrically controlled light scattering. The present work reports onexperimental results of the light transport and backscattering for PLZT 9/65/35 (Pb091La009Zr065Ti035O3). We proposePLZT ceramics with fast and continuously controllable light scattering as an optical phantom for photon …
Time response of the vision binocularity by use of dynamic suppression of retinal images
We present a novel technique for determination the stereopsis dynamic response, using as stimulus a random dot stereopair. Stereopsis can be evoked or depressed by continuous or flash illumination of the stimulus with simultaneous control of a special light scattering obstacle build in the visual path of one eye. The obstacle--a thin plate of electrooptical PLZT ceramics-- exposes (by applying of the voltage to semitransparent gold electrodes deposited on both surfaces of the plate) light scattering so blurring the retinal image, similar as for an eye with a cataract, depressing stereopsis. The random dot stereopair contains contours of images with a different stereodisparity. The PLZT plat…
