    Figures & Tables(5)
    Schematic of recognition of (a) positive and (b) negative depths.
    (a) Schematic of the experimental setup. (b)–(d) Schematics of the rotating disk: (b) No reference and probe beams travel through the disk; (c) probe beam PB1 and reference beam RB1 travel through windows W3 and W11, respectively; (d) probe beam PB1 and reference beam RB1 pass through windows W3 and W12, respectively. SLD, super-luminescent diode; FC, fiber coupler; C, collimator; NPBS, non-polarizing beam splitter; L, lens; M, mirror; RD, rotating disk; TG, transmission grating; SM, servo motor; FT, fixation target; DM, dichroic mirror; PB, probing beam; RB, reference beam; W, optical window.
    Distinguishing between positive and negative depths. The glass slide is located in (a) positive and (b) negative depth ranges. (c) The zero delay line is positioned between the two surfaces of the glass slide.
    Representative results of (a) cornea and (b) retina.
