The problem of resolving point-like light sources not only serves as a benchmark for optical resolution but also holds various practical applications ranging from microscopy to astronomy. In this research, we aim to resolve two thermal…

Super-resolution microscopes (such as STED) illuminate samples with a tiny spot, and achieve very high resolution. But structures smaller than the spot cannot be resolved in this way. Therefore, we propose a technique to solve this problem.…

Spatial resolution of stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy varies with sample labeling techniques and microscope components, e.g., lasers, lenses, and photo-detectors. Fluctuations in the intensity of the depletion laser decrease…

Coherent diffractive imaging (CDI) enables lensless imaging with experimental simplicity and a flexible field of view, yet its resolution is fundamentally constrained by the Abbe diffraction limit. To overcome this limitation, we introduce…
