The two-point complex coherence function constitutes a complete representation for scalar quasi-monochromatic optical fields. Exploiting dynamically reconfigurable slits implemented with a digital micromirror device, we report on measurements of the complex two-point coherence function for partially coherent light scattering from a `scene comprising one or two objects at different transverse and axial positions with respect to the source. Although the intensity shows no discernible shadows in absence of a lens, numerically back-propagating the measured complex coherence function allows estimating the objects sizes and locations -- and thus the reconstruction of the scene.

Established x-ray diffraction methods allow for high-resolution structure determination of crystals, crystallized protein structures or even single molecules. While these techniques rely on coherent scattering, incoherent processes like Compton scatt
ering or fluorescence emission -- often the predominant scattering mechanisms -- are generally considered detrimental for imaging applications. Here we show that intensity correlations of incoherently scattered x-ray radiation can be used to image the full 3D structure of the scattering atoms with significantly higher resolution compared to conventional coherent diffraction imaging and crystallography, including additional three-dimensional information in Fourier space for a single sample orientation. We present a number of properties of incoherent diffractive imaging that are conceptually superior to those of coherent methods.
In absence of a lens to form an image, incoherent or partially coherent light scattering off an obstructive or reflective object forms a broad intensity distribution in the far field with only feeble spatial features. We show here that measuring the
complex spatial coherence function can help in the identification of the size and location of a one-dimensional object placed in the path of a partially coherent light source. The complex coherence function is measured in the far field through wavefront sampling, which is performed via dynamically reconfigurable slits implemented on a digital micromirror device (DMD). The impact of an object -- parameterized by size and location -- that either intercepts or reflects incoherent light is studied. The experimental results show that measuring the spatial coherence function as a function of the separation between two slits located symmetrically around the optical axis can identify the object transverse location and angle subtended from the detection plane (the ratio of the object width to the axial distance from the detector). The measurements are in good agreement with numerical simulations of a forward model based on Fresnel propagators. The rapid refresh rate of DMDs may enable real-time operation of such a lensless coherency imaging scheme.
Despite the virtues of Jones and Mueller formalisms for the representation of the polarimetric properties, for some purposes in both Optics and SAR Polarimetry, the concept of coherency vector associated with a nondepolarizing medium has proven to be
an useful mathematical structure that inherits certain symmetries underlying the nature of linear polarimetric transformations of the states of polarization of light caused by its interaction with material media. While the Jones and Mueller matrices of a serial combination of devices are given by the respective conventional matrix products, the composition of coherency vectors of such serial combinations requires a specific and unconventional mathematical rule. In this work, a vector product of coherency vectors is presented that satisfies, in a meaningful and consistent manner, the indicated requirements. As a result, a new algebraic formalism is built where the representation of polarization states of electromagnetic waves through Stokes vectors is preserved, while nondepolarizing media are represented by coherency vectors and general media are represented by coherency matrices generated by partially coherent compositions of the coherency vectors of the components.
The ability to gain insights into the 3D properties of artificial or biological systems is often critical. However, 3D structures are difficult to retrieve at low dose and with extremely fast processing, as most techniques are based on acquiring and
computing hundreds of 2D angular projections. This is even more challenging with ultrashort X-rays which allow realizing nanometre scale studies and ultrafast time resolved 2D movies. Here we show that computer stereo vision concepts can be transposed to X-rays. We demonstrate nanoscale three-dimensional reconstruction from a single ultrafast acquisition. Two diffraction patterns are recorded simultaneously on a single CCD camera and after phase retrieval two stereo images are reconstructed. A 3D representation of the sample is then computed from quantitative disparity maps with about 130x130x380nm3 voxel resolution in a snapshot of 20 femtoseconds. We extend our demonstration to phase contrast X-ray stereo imaging and reveal hidden 3D features of a sample. Computed phase stereo imaging will find scientific applications at X-ray free electron lasers, synchrotrons and laser-based sources, but also in fast industrial and medical 3D diagnostics.
We demonstrate a compact and easy-to-build computational camera for single-shot 3D imaging. Our lensless system consists solely of a diffuser placed in front of a standard image sensor. Every point within the volumetric field-of-view projects a uniqu
e pseudorandom pattern of caustics on the sensor. By using a physical approximation and simple calibration scheme, we solve the large-scale inverse problem in a computationally efficient way. The caustic patterns enable compressed sensing, which exploits sparsity in the sample to solve for more 3D voxels than pixels on the 2D sensor. Our 3D voxel grid is chosen to match the experimentally measured two-point optical resolution across the field-of-view, resulting in 100 million voxels being reconstructed from a single 1.3 megapixel image. However, the effective resolution varies significantly with scene content. Because this effect is common to a wide range of computational cameras, we provide new theory for analyzing resolution in such systems.
