Correlation Revival Eigenmodes for Differential Sensitivity in Speckle Metrology

Abstract
Speckle metrology exploits the high sensitivity of scattered fields to parameters of interest, yet this also leaves measurements vulnerable to unintended perturbations. Here we employ transmission matrix formalism to engineer light fields that produce speckle correlation "revivals", selectively reducing response to a chosen parameter. In a multimode fiber scattering system, we suppress bending-induced correlation changes over a limited curvature range without strongly degrading wavelength sensitivity, opening a route to tailored, parameter-specific sensitivities of speckle-based measurements.
