Neuromorphic Photonic Devices and Applications synthesizes in one volume the most critical advances in photonic neuromorphic models, photonic material platforms, and accelerators for neuromorphic computing. It discusses fields and applications that can leverage these new platforms. A brief review of the historical development of the field is provided followed by a discussion of the emerging 2D photonic materials platforms and recent work in implementing neuromorphic models and 3D neuromorphic systems. The application of artificial intelligence such as neuromorphic models to inverse design neuromorphic materials and devices and predict performance challenges is discussed throughout. The book includes a comprehensive overview of the applications of neuromorphic photonic technologies and the challenges, opportunities, and future prospects facing the field. Neuromorphic Photonic Devices and Applications is suitable for researchers and practitioners in academia and R&D in the multi-disciplinary field of photonics.

Discussing the various principles in confocal scanning microscopy, this text presents a methodology based on a concept of the three-dimensional transfer functions developed since the start of the 1990s. Topics include fibre-optical confocal microscopy and 3-D fourier objects of a thin lens.

This book provides a systematic introduction to the principles of microscopic imaging through tissue-like turbid media in terms of Monte-Carlo simulation. Microscopic imaging through a tissue-like turbid medium can provide higher resolution than transillumination imaging in which no objective is used.

These techniques have stimulated further development of the optical imaging theory, including 3-dimensional microscopy imaging theory, the theory of imaging with ultrashort pulsed beam illumination and the aberration theory for high numerical-aperture objectives.
