Abstract: Complex wavefront engineering is realized through a random metasurface phase mask backed by a phase-only spatial light modulator. The metasurface consists of an array of subwavelength nanoscatterers which give the metasurface a pre-arranged disorder. Since the transmission matrix of the disordered metasurface is known, there is no need for extensive characterization measurements which are instead required in standard disordered optical devices.

In one example, the Multiplexed Fourier Ptychographic imaging system includes an LED array configured to illuminate a sequence of LED patterns for illuminating a sample being imaged. The system includes LED circuitry configured to independently control power to turn on multiple LEDs simultaneously in each LED pattern of the array.

The system uses the first set of lower resolution images to generate a second set of lower resolution images associated with each LED in the LED array and iteratively updates overlapping regions in the Fourier domain with the second set of lower resolution images to generate a higher resolution image.

Abstract: A non-invasive system and method. Sample light is delivered into an anatomical structure, such that a portion of the sample light passes through a target voxel comprising brain matter in the head and is scattered by the head as signal light. The signal light is detected, changes in the level of water concentration or relative water concentration of the target voxel are detected based on the detected signal light, and a level of neural activity is determined within the target voxel based on the determined changes level of the water concentration or relative water concentration of the target voxel.

Abstract: Sample light is delivered into the anatomical structure having a target voxel, whereby a portion of the sample light passing through the target voxel is scattered by the anatomical structure as signal light, and another portion of the sample light not passing through the target voxel is scattered by the anatomical structure as background light that is combined with the signal light to create a sample light pattern. Reference light is combined with the sample light pattern to generate an interference light pattern, such that the signal light and the reference light are combined in a heterodyne manner. Ultrasound is delivered into the target voxel, such that the signal light is frequency shifted by the ultrasound. The ultrasound and the sample light are pulsed in synchrony at the target voxel, such that at least one pulse of the sample light has a combined duration less than a pulse width of the ultrasound.
