In this work, we report a high-speed room-temperature mid-wave infrared interband cascade photodetector based on a type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice. The devices show an optical cut-off wavelength around 5 µm and a 3-dB bandwidth up to 7.04 GHz. The relatively low dark current density around 9.39 × 10-2 A/cm2 under -0.1 V is also demonstrated at 300 K. These results validate the advantages of ICIPs to achieve both high-frequency operation and low noise at room temperature. Limitations on the high-speed performance of the detector are also discussed based on the S-parameter analysis and other RF performance measurement.In this paper, we quantify the benefits of compensated-beacon adaptive optics (CBAO) relative to uncompensated-beacon adaptive optics (UBAO) using wave-optics simulations. Throughout, we present results for both the Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SH-WFS) and the digital-holographic wavefront sensor (DH-WFS). Given weak to moderately strong scintillation conditions, the results show that the two noiseless sensors offer similar performance in terms of the peak Strehl ratio when using similar subaperture sampling and least-squares phase reconstruction. Specifically, CBAO leads to an average performance boost of 17% for the SH-WFS and 26% for the DH-WFS relative to UBAO for the turbulence scenarios studied here.We proposed an alternative method to design a magnifying lens by optical conformal mapping. Different from previous hyperlens or superlens, the proposed lens needs no materials with negative or anisotropic refractive index. The lens has better photonic transporting efficiency than conventional a solid immersion lens due to impedance matching. The proposed lenses have many other advantages, such as broadband, low l
