RESUMO

The correlation properties of light provide an outstanding tool to overcome the limitations of traditional imaging techniques. A relevant case is represented by correlation plenoptic imaging (CPI), a quantum-inspired volumetric imaging protocol employing spatio-temporally correlated photons from either entangled or chaotic sources to address the main limitations of conventional light-field imaging, namely, the poor spatial resolution and the reduced change of perspective for 3D imaging. However, the application potential of high-resolution imaging modalities relying on photon correlations is limited, in practice, by the need to collect a large number of frames. This creates a gap, unacceptable for many relevant tasks, between the time performance of correlated-light imaging and that of traditional imaging methods. In this article, we address this issue by exploiting the photon number correlations intrinsic in chaotic light, combined with a cutting-edge ultrafast sensor made of a large array of single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs). This combination of source and sensor is embedded within a novel single-lens CPI scheme enabling to acquire 10 volumetric images per second. Our results place correlated-photon imaging at a competitive edge and prove its potential in practical applications.

RESUMO

Light-field microscopy represents a promising solution for microscopic volumetric imaging, thanks to its capability to encode information on multiple planes in a single acquisition. This is achieved through its peculiar simultaneous capture of information on light spatial distribution and propagation direction. However, state-of-the-art light-field microscopes suffer from a detrimental loss of spatial resolution compared to standard microscopes. In this article, we experimentally demonstrate the working principle of a new scheme, called Correlation Light-field Microscopy (CLM), where the correlation between two light beams is exploited to achieve volumetric imaging with a resolution that is only limited by diffraction. In CLM, a correlation image is obtained by measuring intensity correlations between a large number of pairs of ultra-short frames; each pair of frames is illuminated by the two correlated beams, and is exposed for a time comparable with the source coherence time. We experimentally show the capability of CLM to recover the information contained in out-of-focus planes within three-dimensional test targets and biomedical phantoms. In particular, we demonstrate the improvement of the depth of field enabled by CLM with respect to a conventional microscope characterized by the same resolution. Moreover, the multiple perspectives contained in a single correlation image enable reconstructing over 50 distinguishable transverse planes within a 1 mm3 sample.
