Optical Computing Research.

Abstract

This document contains information on the research accomplished under AFOSR Grant No. AFOSR 83-0166 during the time period 18 May 1984 through 17 May 1985. The work covers several different areas of optical computing and related topics. The primary emphasis of the work is on applications of optics to interconnections in the area of microelectronics. A second area of investigations is the inversion of images and wavefronts using photorefractive crystals, and the applications of such nonlinear operations to spatial filtering problems. Work has also been completed on the wavefront inversion using holograms and on the suppression of speckle in coherently formed images. Publications during the last year arising out of the grant are also detailed. (Author)
