Apparatus including: an optical waveguide bundle including a plurality of optical waveguides substantially aligned along a waveguide bundle axis, each optical waveguide having a longitudinal core configured to transmit light; a plurality of the optical waveguides each including a Bragg reflector, the Bragg reflectors configured to couple light incident from a direction substantially transverse to the waveguide bundle axis into the optical waveguides in a propagating mode in the longitudinal cores; and each of a plurality of longitudinal cores being in optical communication with an optical detector configured to detect light transmitted in the longitudinal cores.

Light source orientation detector

An apparatus includes an optical resonator and a passive optical device. The optical resonator has first and second optical reflectors and an optical cavity interposed between the reflectors. The optical resonator includes an electro-optically responsive material. One of the reflectors is a distributed Bragg reflector. A passive optical device is configured to direct light through the first optical reflector. The optical resonator is configured to return a portion of the light through the first reflector.

Optically measuring electric field intensities

Apparatus including flexible line extending along a length. Flexible line includes first charge carrier-transporting body, photosensitive body over first charge carrier-transporting body, and second charge carrier-transporting body over photosensitive body. Each of first and second charge carrier-transporting bodies and photosensitive body extend along at least part of length of flexible line. Photosensitive body is capable of near-infrared or visible light-induced generation of charge carrier pairs. Second charge carrier-transporting body is at least semi-transparent to near-infrared light or visible light.

Flexible photo-detectors

A T-ray imaging system employing an optical resonator that is adapted to be (i) positioned in the near-field proximity to a surface of a sample and (ii) pumped with pump light such that the pump light traverses a relatively thin layer of an electro-optically responsive material (EORM) located in the resonator's cavity. The imaging system has an optical detector that is adapted to detect at least a portion of the pump light reflected from the resonator, while the sample is illuminated with terahertz (THz) radiation such that the EORM is exposed to that radiation resulting in a detectable phase shift in the reflected pump light.
