Optical aberration theory remains a fundamental component in the design and operation of space telescopes. With increasingly ambitious astronomical missions and the demand for high-resolution imaging, ...

This paper covers a discussion of the Abbe Sine Condition and its implication for Flat Optics, including the effects of stop shift and substrate curvature. Following that, we apply Sweatt’s high index ...

Not an aberration: schematic drawing of the metalens (left), which is made of tiny titanium waveguides. The drawing on the right is of a single waveguide. (Courtesy Boubacar Kanté) A new type of ...

Depth sensing plays a crucial role in various applications, including robotics, augmented reality, and autonomous driving. Monocular passive depth sensing techniques have come into their own for their ...

Optical aberrations and the errors they introduce are a standard obstacle in localization microscopy techniques, and hinder the gathering of depth information from a biological sample. A project at ...

The dream of a flat, lightweight telescope lens, where microscopic etchings precisely refract different wavelengths of light, ...

Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) is a microscopy technique widely used to investigate cells and tissues. Even though first biomedical applications based on QPI have been developed, both acquisition ...

Meta-optics is a rapidly emerging field that combines the principles of metamaterials and optical engineering to control and manipulate light in unprecedented ways. It involves the design and ...

As a promising candidate for next-generation mobile platform, mixed reality (MR) such as Apple Vision Pro and Meta Quest Pro (both are passthrough virtual reality headsets) has potential to ...
