k- Microscopy – resolution beyond the diffraction limit
We present a novel Fourier domain method for microscopic imaging – so-called kmicroscopy– with lateral resolution independent of the detection numerical aperture. The concept is based on sample illumination by a lateral fringe-pattern of varying spatial frequency, which probes the lateral spatial frequency or kspectrum of the sample structure. The illumination pattern is realized by interferenc...
متن کاملOptical Microscopy Beyond the Diffraction Limit: Imaging Guided and Propagating Fields
Diffraction limits standard optical microscopy to a spatial resolution of about half the wavelength of light. We present novel microscopy techniques for imaging semiconductor materials and devices at better than diffraction-limited spatial resolution and observe previously inaccessible phenomena. We discuss the methods and results for Numerical Aperture Increasing Lens (NAIL) and Near-field Sca...
متن کاملQuantum imaging beyond the diffraction limit by optical centroid measurements.
I propose a quantum imaging method that can beat the Rayleigh-Abbe diffraction limit and achieve de Broglie resolution without requiring a multiphoton absorber or coincidence detection. Using the same nonclassical states of light as those for quantum lithography, the proposed method requires only optical intensity measurements, followed by image postprocessing, to produce the same complex quant...
متن کاملOptical Hyperlens: Far-field imaging beyond the diffraction limit.
We propose an approach to far-field optical imaging beyond the diffraction limit. The proposed system allows image magnification, is robust with respect to material losses and can be fabricated by adapting existing metamaterial technologies in a cylindrical geometry.
متن کاملOptics beyond the diffraction limit
In this lecture, we introduce the basic concepts of near-field optics using two different points of view: the plane-wave angular spectrum and the electric-dipole radiation. The first approach leads naturally to the diffraction limit and to the concepts of evanescent waves and near field. The second approach shows that the basic laws of electromagnetic radiation also lead to the classical resolu...
