Light polarization is changed by manipulating the E field of the light and this manipulation typical translates into
a rotation or birefringence based on the sample being tested. For instance some molecules within the body are
chiral and will rotate the light while some tissues are bi-refingent causing ellipticity of the light. When used with
appropriate optics these changes are converted to a change in light intensity.
Luminescence (fluorescence or phosphorescence) is an absorption re-emission process in which the light is
absorbed at one energy (wavelength) by the sample and re-emitted at a different energy (wavelength). The
emitted light is typically lower in energy and thus higher in wavelength.
Light absorption due to the sample is the process by which the light is absorbed (typically in the infrared region
for sensing) and transformed into heat and thus less light is projected onto the detector. Many biological samples
have specific absorption peaks that occur as a function of wavelength.
Light scatter occurs when the sample components simply deflect the light at the same wavelength (elastically) in
which it was incident on the sample while Raman scatter is in-elastic scatter and the light comes off the sample at
a shifted wavelength depending on the sample under investigation.

Using Snell’s Law:
ni sin(i) = nt sin(t) thus 1.33sin(45)=1.5 sin(tg) or tg = 38.8 degrees
Reverse the transmission: 1.5sin(45)=1.33 sin(tw) or tw = 52.9 degrees
Yes, this makes sense since when you pass from a higher index material to a lower one the beam will tend
to bend away from the normal while the opposite is true if you pass from a lower index material to a higher one.

If heat conduction is ignored, then temperature rise can be estimated as
T Q t / C = Fl / C

The equation for velocity is:
v = (f/f) (c/(2n cos())) = (f*)/(2n cos()))
Thus

v = [(63*10 )(632.8*10 )]/[2 (cos(60)) (1.33)] = 2.997 cm/s
This is reasonable for an averaged sized vessel (33 cm/s in the aorta, 0.3 mm/s capillaries).

(a) Assume =0 then 2(nt – na) L cos() = m or 2(1.33-1)L=20(780*10 )
Thus
L = 23.64 micrometers and yes it will have a long enough range since the tissue is only
20 micometers thick and with the system we can measure 23.64 micrometers.
Using the same equation as in (a) but solving for mmin and mmax for both 2 and 20 micrometers yields:
-6 -9
mmin = [2(0.33)(2*10 )]/780*10 = 1.69 or rather 1 fringe
-6 -9
mmax = [2(0.33)(20*10 )]/780*10 = 16.9 or rather 17 fringes
Thus the system must be able to discern between 1 and 17 fringes without being redundent in order to quantify
the 2 micrometer slices across the 20 micrometer range.

The Michelson is as good as the Fabry-Perot only for a system with low reflectivity, in which only the first two
beams of the Fabry-Perot contribute to the interference. A Fabry-Perot, however, is in general designed for high
reflectivity and works better because you get multiple beam interference and thus narrower peaks.

Given a molecule in some state which absorbs an incident photon, it will rise to a higher state and then
immediately emits a scattered photon with less energy than originally absorbed then this difference goes to
exciting the molecule to a higher vibrational energy level with a higher wavelength than the incident wavelength
and these are known as the stokes bands. If the initial state is excited, the molecule after absorbing and emitting a
scattered photon may drop to an even lower state than the initial state, meaning some of the vibrational energy of
the molecule has been converted to radiant energy and thus the shift in wavelength is below the incident
wavelength and these are known as anti-stokes bands. Typically, since the Stokes bands are at higher energies,
they are used for sensing. The main challenges for Raman sensing are high tissue auto-fluorescence backgrounds
in the presence of very low Raman scattered signals as well as the confounding effect of water and other analytes
in the medium.

Assume the eye can be treated as a plain test cell (i.e. ignoring index of refraction mismatch problems), then the
following equation can be used:
100 -3 -1
C = 100(15*10 )/[(.8*10 )(41.89)] = .448 g/dL = 448 mg/dL
L
This is reasonable but considered high since normal is around 90 mg/dL. Thus assuming this is a fasting glucose
level then the patient would be considered diabetic.

This does make sense from a physiologic point of view since the blood filled tissue has a hemoglobin
concentration of 0.2 mM, with 20% oxyhemoglobin and 80% deoxyhemoglobin. In addition, the background

absorption is reasonable and low at 0.03 cm .

Given:
Pulsed Laser Coagulation T= Tinitial + mt
Tinitial=37C
m=1000 C /s
R is the universal gas constant = 2 cal/gm-C
Required:
T_c ( critical temperature at which point omega=1)
Assumptions:
The temperature curve is linear.
Values of ln A and E are approximated to pig tissue values of 102.72 and 74000 respectively.
Equation:
t
(z, t) = 0 exp ( ln A - E/(RT(z,t))) dt
t
1 = 0 exp ( ln A - E/(R(Tinitial +mt)) )dt
t
1 = 0 exp ( 102.72 - 74000/(2*(37 +1000t))) dt (1)
Now, estimating values of t, the trapezoidal rule is used to evaluate the integral on the RHS of equation 1 until it
equals the LHS.
In the constant temperature case for the same duration, the critical temperature was found to be 96.75C.
Hence, the value of critical temperature is found to be LESS in the constant temperature case as compared to the
linear heating case.
