  • Patent number: 10795315
    Abstract: A method of generating a color image of a sample includes obtaining a plurality of low resolution holographic images of the sample using a color image sensor, the sample illuminated simultaneously by light from three or more distinct colors, wherein the illuminated sample casts sample holograms on the image sensor and wherein the plurality of low resolution holographic images are obtained by relative x, y, and z directional shifts between sample holograms and the image sensor. Pixel super-resolved holograms of the sample are generated at each of the three or more distinct colors. De-multiplexed holograms are generated from the pixel super-resolved holograms. Phase information is retrieved from the de-multiplexed holograms using a phase retrieval algorithm to obtain complex holograms. The complex hologram for the three or more distinct colors is digitally combined and back-propagated to a sample plane to generate the color image.

  • Publication number: 20200313198
    Abstract: A composite current collector includes: an intermediate layer, having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and the intermediate layer being an electronically insulated ionic conductor; a first metal layer, disposed on the first surface; and a second metal layer, disposed on the second surface, wherein the first metal layer and the second metal layer separately include at least one hole, the hole exposing a part of the first surface and a part of the second surface. Since the intermediate layer is an ionic conductor, the part exposed from the hole can effectively form ion path connecting active materials on both sides of the composite current collector, thereby improving ion conductivity. In addition, the composite electrode helps to ensure the capacity performance of the cathode and anode active materials, thereby further improving the energy density of the composite electrode.

  • Publication number: 20200310100
    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating a high-color-fidelity and high-resolution color image of a sample are disclosed; which fuses or merges a holographic image acquired at a single wavelength with a color-calibrated image taken by a low-magnification lens-based microscope using a wavelet transform based colorization method. A holographic microscope is used to obtain holographic images which are used to computationally reconstruct a high-resolution mono-color holographic image of the sample. A lens-based microscope is used to obtain low resolution color images. A discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is used to generate a final image that merges the low-resolution components from the lens-based color image and the high-resolution components from the high-resolution mono-color holographic image.

  • Publication number: 20190137932
    Abstract: A method of imaging a sample having birefringent crystals (or other materials) using a lens-free polarized microscopy device includes illuminating the sample contained on a sample holder with circularly polarized partially coherent or coherent light and capturing lower resolution holographic images of the birefringent crystals with an image sensor. A polarization analyzer unit made from a ?/4 retarder and a linear polarizer is positioned between the sample holder and the image sensor. The lower resolution holographic images are obtained with the polarization analyzer unit in two different orientations (e.g. ˜90° orientations). Phase-retrieved, higher resolution images of the birefringent crystals at the different orientations are obtained using the lower resolution holographic images. A differential image is generated from the respective phase-retrieved, higher resolution images. An object support mask is applied to identify the birefringent crystals which can then be pseudo-colored.
