New Renaissance Institute\u2019s founder is credited as the first to discover and report the fractional Fourier transform properties of lenses described in the landmark text Fractional Fourier Transform with Applications in Optics and Signal Processing<\/i><\/u><\/a> (p.386) some five years prior to the independent engulfing rise of the topic to widespread attention beginning in 1993. This rarely-cited but occasionally recognized paper<\/u><\/a> was accepted for presentation only as poster session at the 1988 SPIE Spatial Light Modulator Conference. Many hundreds of papers, including dozens that have since become celebrated, have been subsequently published beginning in 1993, and the work of two leading individuals in this 1993-initiated fractional Fourier transform optics publication \u201cwave\u201d were awarded the 1998 Prize of the International Commission for Optics<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n

New Renaissance Institute has continued its work in fractional Fourier transforms in the contexts of formal mathematical operator theory, fractional Hilbert-space operators, the theory of Special Functions, computational imaging, electron microscopy, coherent optics, visible-light imaging, and monolithic optical computing engines.<\/p>\n

The items below pertain to NRI\u2019s work in the area of light-field imaging and computational image refocusing involving phase-reconstruction for computational refocusing of legacy coherent images leveraging operator group and operator algebra properties of the fractional Fourier transform operator, for example for use in refocusing of legacy and real-time high-energy electron microscopy images but with many other potential optical applications. Mathematical aspects of this work include several aspects of the discrete fractional Fourier transform operator both in structure for proper approximate propagation modeling as well as numeric computation as well as complex-valued powers of the fractional Fourier transform operator.<\/p>\n

NRI\u2019s founder and NRI have performed other innovative work light-field imaging and computational imaging, including its lensless light-field imaging camera work<\/a>.<\/p>\n

NRI is pleased to have hosted summer interns from U.C. Santa Cruz, U.C. Irvine, U.C. Berkeley, and U.C. San Diego who have provided detailed laboratory work for in this technology area.<\/p>\n
