Ghost imaging uses two light beams correlated in the transverse position, time, or frequency to create an image of a spatial, temporal, or spectral object. We propose a scheme of time-to-space ghost imaging for creating a spatial image of a…

Ghost imaging can capture 2D images with a point detector instead of an array sensor. It therefore offers a solution to the challenge of building area format sensors in wavebands where such sensors are difficult and expensive to produce and…
