Topology optimization techniques have been applied in integrated optics and nanophotonics for the inverse design of devices with shapes that cannot be conceived by human intuition. At optical frequencies, these techniques have only been…
In many laboratories, conventional bright-field transmission microscopes are available to study the structure and organization principles of fibrous tissue samples, but they usually provide only 2D information. To access the third…
