Abstract: An exemplary volumetric frame capture controller (“controller”) transmits first and second commands to first and second three-dimensional (“3D”) capture devices disposed, respectively, at first and second positions with respect to a real-world scene. The first and second commands are to capture, respectively, first and second 3D sub-frames representative of the real-world scene from first and second vantage points associated with the first and second positions.

In response to this determination, the controller provides the first and second 3D sub-frames for use in forming a volumetric frame of the real-world scene. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: Provided are systems and methods to generate single-cycle THz pulses from a few tens of nanometers thin layer of split ring resonators (SRRs) via optical rectification of femtosecond laser pulses. The emitted THz radiation, with a spectrum ranging from about 0.1 to 4 THz, arises exclusively from pumping the magnetic-dipole resonance of SRRs around 200 THz. This resonant enhancement, together with pump polarization dependence and power scaling of the THz emission, underpins the nonlinearity from optically induced circulating currents in SRRs, with a huge effective nonlinear susceptibility of 0.8×10?16 m2/V that far exceeds surface nonlinearities of both thin films and bulk organic/inorganic crystals and sheet nonlinearities of non-centrosymmetric materials such as ZnTe.
