Single-shot ptychography is a quantitative phase imaging method wherein overlapping beams of light arranged in a grid pattern simultaneously illuminate a sample, allowing a full ptychographic dataset to be collected in a single shot. It is…

The performance of tip-enhanced optical microscopy is often limited by inefficient coupling of the excitation field to the plasmonic tip apex, as well as by thermal drift and optical aberrations. Here, we demonstrate that adaptive wavefront…

Temporal focusing two-photon microscopy enables high resolution imaging of fine structures in vivo over a large volume. A limitation of temporal focusing is that signal-to-background ratio and resolution degrade rapidly with increasing…

Light field imaging has recently known a regain of interest due to the availability of practical light field capturing systems that offer a wide range of applications in the field of computer vision. However, capturing high-resolution light…
