Over the past fifty years, wavefront sensing technology has continuously evolved from basic techniques to high-precision systems, serving as a core methodology in adaptive optics (AO). Beyond traditional wavefront retrieval methods based on…
Operational near-real-time monitoring of Earth's surface deformation using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) requires processing algorithms that efficiently incorporate new acquisitions without reprocessing historical…
An ${\rm SU(1,1)}$ interferometer uses a sequence of two optical parametric amplifiers for achieving sub-shot-noise sensitivity to a phase shift introduced in between. We present the first realization of a wide-field ${\rm SU(1,1)}$…
Interfacial adhesion is caused by intermolecular forces that only occur between surfaces at nano-scale contact (NSC) i.e., 0.1-0.4nm. To evaluate NSC and its influence on adhesion, F\"orster resonance energy transfer (FRET) spectroscopy has…
Azimuthal shear interferometry is a versatile tool for analyzing wavefront asymmetries. However, conventional systems are bulky, alignment-sensitive, and prone to nonuniform shear. We present a broadband, compact, and robust…
This study presents a novel, versatile traction force microscopy framework for quantifying three-dimensional (3D) interfacial forces during bio-adhesion by integrating in situ stereo digital image correlation with finite element (FE)…
Surfactant self-assembly at solid-liquid interfaces governs interfacial stability, transport, and reactivity across many technologies, yet resolving interfacial surfactant phases and their transition kinetics in situ remains challenging.…
Diffraction experiments have moved to ever heavier objects in recent years, now standing at the level of large molecules. Experiments in materials science on the other hand have come down to ever smaller sizes largely due to the success of…
Photonic devices rarely provide both elaborate spatial control and sharp spectral control over an incoming wavefront. In optical metasurfaces, for example, the localized modes of individual meta-units govern the wavefront shape over a broad…
Slow Feature Analysis (SFA) extracts features representing the underlying causes of changes within a temporally coherent high-dimensional raw sensory input signal. Our novel incremental version of SFA (IncSFA) combines incremental Principal…
We propose to use a Nomarski imaging interferometer to measure the out-of-plane displacement field of MEMS. It is shown that the measured optical phase arises both from height and slope gradients. Using four integrating buckets a more…
We demonstrate quantitative force imaging of long-range magnetic forces simultaneously with near-surface van-der-Waals and contact-mechanics forces using intermodulation atomic force microscopy. Magnetic forces at the 200 pN level are…
Unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) have great value with their ability to execute hazardous and time-consuming missions over water surfaces. Recently, USVs for inland waterways have attracted increasing attention for their potential…
Parallel imaging techniques have been widely used in high-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Multiple receiver coils have been shown to improve image quality and allow accelerated image acquisition. Magnetic resonance imaging at…
We study the spatial mode content at the output of a wide-field SU(1,1) interferometer, i.e. a nonlinear interferometer comprising two coherently-pumped spatially-multimode optical parametric amplifiers placed in sequence with a focusing…
While multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technologies continue to advance, concerns arise as to how MIMO can remain scalable if more users are to be accommodated with an increasing number of antennas at the base station (BS) in the…
Spatial interferometry, based on the measurement of total absorbed power, can be used to determine the state of coherence of the electromagnetic field to which any energy-absorbing structure is sensitive. The measured coherence tensor can…
Robust object detection for Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs) in complex water environments is essential for reliable navigation and operation. Specifically, water surface object detection faces challenges from blurred edges and diverse…
Localization of robots using subsurface features observed by ground-penetrating radar (GPR) enhances and adds robustness to common sensor modalities, as subsurface features are less affected by weather, seasons, and surface changes. We…
Super-resolutive 3D tracking, such as PSF engineering or evanescent field imaging has long been used to track microparticles and to enhance the throughput of single molecules force spectroscopic measurements. However, current methods…
