Abstract
A device for optical coherence tomography (OCT) is provided. The device includes a light source for generating a sample beam incident on a matter and a reference beam for creating interference with the sample beam; a spatial light modulator enabling a plurality of ramp patterns for controlling an incident angle of the sample beam; and a diffraction grating for transmitting only a first diffraction component of the reference beam; whereby an image of the matter within a medium is captured by generating an interference image formed by the interference between the sample beam and the reference beam.
