Properly modeling and predicting the scattering response of a metasurface is a particularly challenging task. This has been shown to be especially difficult if the metasurface supports both local and nonlocal interactions, in the form of…
High-resolution optical microscopy has transformed biological imaging, yet its resolution and contrast deteriorate with depth due to multiple light scattering. Conventional correction strategies typically approximate the medium as one or a…
