INTRODUCTIONThe modulus of the optical transfer function (MTF) of the eye or any other optical system is usuallyevaluated by imaging either several gratings each with different spatial frequency, or a single test tar-get having patterns with different frequencies (USAF resolution chart). In any of these two usual proce-dures, the measurement of the MTF is made at discrete values of the spatial frequency.Here we describe a method based on the self -imaging phenomenon for p…

Lau Effect And Binary Logic

The Lau effect is applied to implement the whole set of binary logic operations optically. Our technique works with spatially incoherent light and does not require lenses or any other optical accessory.
