Abstract
We present a full-field Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography system capable of acquiring volumetric data at 50 MHz A-scan rate with an axial resolution of 3.3 µm in air. This high resolution is achieved by phase-correctly combining the interferograms of two independent swept lasers to achieve a total bandwidth of 145 nm at a center wavelength of 880 nm. By changing the software control of the system, it can be switched to higher acquisition speeds of more than 100 MHz A-scan rate while reducing the resolution to 5.9 µm. We show images of technical and biological samples, including the retina.
