• Abstract summary: We present a pyramid-structured diffractive optical network design (which we term P-D2NN) for unidirectional image magnification and demagnification. Our analyses revealed the efficacy of this P-D2NN design in unidirectional image magnification and demagnification tasks. It produces high-fidelity magnified or demagnified images in only one direction, while inhibiting the image formation in the opposite direction.

• Abstract: Diffractive deep neural networks (D2NNs) are composed of successive transmissive layers optimized using supervised deep learning to all-optically implement various computational tasks between an input and output field-of-view (FOV). Here, we present a pyramid-structured diffractive optical network design (which we term P-D2NN), optimized specifically for unidirectional image magnification and demagnification. In this P-D2NN design, the diffractive layers are pyramidally scaled in alignment with the direction of the image magnification or demagnification. Our analyses revealed the efficacy of this P-D2NN design in unidirectional image magnification and demagnification tasks, producing high-fidelity magnified or demagnified images in only one direction, while inhibiting the image formation in the opposite direction - confirming the desired unidirectional imaging operation. Compared to the conventional D2NN designs with uniform-sized successive diffractive layers, P-D2NN design achieves similar performance in unidirectional magnification tasks using only half of the diffractive degrees of freedom within the optical processor volume. Furthermore, it maintains its unidirectional image magnification/demagnification functionality across a large band of illumination wavelengths despite being trained with a single illumination wavelength. With this pyramidal architecture, we also designed a wavelength-multiplexed diffractive network, where a unidirectional magnifier and a unidirectional demagnifier operate simultaneously in opposite directions, at two distinct illumination wavelengths. The efficacy of the P-D2NN architecture was also validated experimentally using monochromatic terahertz illumination, successfully matching our numerical simulations. P-D2NN offers a physics-inspired strategy for designing task-specific visual processors.

These diffractive layers are optimized using deep learning and consist of hundreds of thousands of diffractive phase features, which collectively modulate the incoming fields and project an intensity image of the input onto an output FOV, while blocking the image formation in the

  Light field (LF) cameras record both intensity and directions of light rays, and encode 3D scenes into 4D LF images. It is challenging for convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to process LF images since the spatial and angular information are highly inter-twined with varying disparities. We propose a generic mechanism to disentangle these coupled information for LF image processing.
