Direct 3D Imaging through Spatial Coherence of Light
Wide-field imaging is widely adopted due to its fast acquisition, cost-effectiveness, and ease of use. Its extension to direct volumetric applications, however, is burdened by the trade-off between resolution and depth of field (DOF), dictated by the numerical aperture of the system.
Exploiting separation-dependent coherence to boost optical resolution
The problem of resolving pointlike light sources not only serves as a benchmark for optical resolution but also holds various practical applications ranging from microscopy to astronomy. In this paper, we aim to resolve two thermal sources sharing arbitrary mutual coherence using the spatial mode demultiplexing technique.
