Our proprietary Cr4+:YAG double-clad fiber is not only broad in bandwidth but also highly stable; therefore, it is eminently suitable for the development of high axial resolution and high SNR near infrared OCT systems. By means of laser heated pedestal growth (LHPG) method, we have successfully developed a Cr4+:YAG double-clad fiber, generating broadband amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) centered at 1.38 um with a bandwidth of 265 nm and 0.03% instability by an 1064-nm Yb fiber pump laser. Using the ASE as light source of the OCT system, we have demonstrated an interference signal of 6-um-thick single-layer human pulmonary adenocarcinoma cells. With dispersion compensation, we have promoted the axial resolution from 5.1 um to 3.75 um with 68.3-dB SNR simultaneously. We have constructed a modified SNR simulation model, which can be applied to any kinds of OCT light sources. Based on experiment and simulation results, we conclude that it is not likely that shot-noise limited system can be reached through adjusting the reflectivity of the reference light. Besides, since our light source is quite stable, we also conclude that our SNR performance is close to theoretical limit in a single-detector system.中文摘要 Ibstract II錄 III目錄 V目錄 VII一章　緒論 1二章　OCT系統理論介紹 3.1　干涉 3.2　低同調干涉術 6.3　空間解析度 9.3.1　縱向解析度 9.3.2　橫向解析度 10.4　雜訊與訊雜比 13.4.1　雜訊 13.4.2　訊雜比 15三章　OCT系統實驗架構與實驗結果 17.1　Cr:YAG 晶體光纖 17.1.1　Cr:YAG 晶體特性 17.1.2　Cr:YAG 晶體光纖製備 20.2　Cr:YAG ASE寬頻光源 24.3　OCT系統實驗架構 28.4　OCT系統實驗結果 29.4.1　一維掃描 29.4.2　二維掃描 32四章　OCT之解析度分析 36.1　色散效應影響縱向解析度之模擬 36.1.1　考慮分光鏡厚度 37.1.2　考慮分光鏡厚度與色散效應 38.2　加入色散補償片的實驗結果與比較 43.3　寬頻光源影響橫向解析度之模擬 46五章　OCT之訊雜比分析 49.1　訊雜比分析模型之建立與修正 49.1.1　訊雜比模型之建立 49.1.2　訊雜比模型之修正 52.2　ASE振幅雜訊量測與分析 55.3　加入振幅雜訊的OCT訊雜比模型與實驗對照 58.4　振幅雜訊影響訊雜比之模擬 60六章　結論與未來工作 62考文獻 641885936 bytesapplication/pdfen-US光學低同調掃描解析度訊雜比optical coherence tomography, resolutionSNRthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/188381/1/ntu-97-R95941050-1.pdf
