Abstract summary: inverse-design approach is utilized to create a set of single-layer meta-optics that simultaneously focus light and shape the spectra of focused light without using any filters. Results show that both spatial and spectral properties of the meta-optics are optimized, resulting in spectra that mimic the color matching functions of the CIE 1931 XYZ color space.

Abstract: Meta-optics have rapidly become a major research field within the optics and photonics community, strongly driven by the seemingly limitless opportunities made possible by controlling optical wavefronts through interaction with arrays of sub-wavelength scatterers. As more and more modalities are explored, the design strategies to achieve desired functionalities become increasingly demanding, necessitating more advanced design techniques. Herein, the inverse-design approach is utilized to create a set of single-layer meta-optics that simultaneously focus light and shape the spectra of focused light without using any filters. Thus, both spatial and spectral properties of the meta-optics are optimized, resulting in spectra that mimic the color matching functions of the CIE 1931 XYZ color space, which links the distributions of wavelengths in light and the color perception of a human eye. Experimental demonstrations of these meta-optics show qualitative agreement with the theoretical predictions and help elucidate the focusing mechanism of these devices.

Correlation Hyperspectral Imaging [0.0]
Hyperspectral imaging aims at providing information on both the spatial and the spectral distribution of light, with high resolution. We address this limitation by exploiting light intensity correlations, which are shown to enable overcoming the typical downsides of traditional hyperspectral imaging techniques. The enabled combination of high spatial and spectral resolution, high speed, and insensitivity to undesired spectral features shall lead to a paradigm change in hyperspectral imaging devices.

Super-resolution of ultrafast pulses via spectral inversion [0.0]
We experimentally demonstrate a spectroscopic super-resolution method aimed at broadband light (10s to 100s of GHz) We study the paradigmatic problem of estimating a small separation between two incoherent spectral features of equal brightness, with a small number of photons per coherence time. The setup is based on an actively stabilized Mach-Zehnder-type interferometer with electro-optic time lenses and passive spectral dispersers implementing the inversion.

Cross-Scope Spatial-Spectral Information Aggregation for Hyperspectral Image Super-Resolution [47.12985199570964]
We propose a novel cross-scope spatial-spectral Transformer (CST) to investigate long-range spatial and spectral similarities for single hyperspectral image super-resolution. Specifically, we devise cross-attention mechanisms in spatial and spectral dimensions to comprehensively model the long-range spatial-spectral characteristics. Experiments over three hyperspectral datasets demonstrate that the proposed CST is superior to other state-of-the-art methods both quantitatively and visually.

Hyperentanglement in structured quantum light [50.591267188664666]
Entanglement in high-dimensional quantum systems, where one or more degrees of freedom of light are involved, offers increased information capacities and enables new quantum protocols. Here, we demonstrate a functional source of high-dimensional, noise-resilient hyperentangled states encoded in time-frequency and vector-vortex structured modes. We generate highly entangled photon pairs at telecom wavelength that we characterise via two-photon interference and quantum state tomography, achieving near-unity visibilities and fidelities.

Improved Spectral Imaging Microscopy for Cultural Heritage through Oblique Illumination [0.9939631917378883]
The microscope light source can be adjusted on two axes allowing for a hemisphere of possible illumination directions. The extraction of spectral reflectance images with high spatial resolutions is demonstrated through the analysis of a replica cross-section, created from known painting reference materials, and a sample extracted from a painting by Pablo Picasso entitled La Mis'ereuse accroupie (1902) These case studies show the rich microscale molecular information that may be obtained using this microscope and how the instrument overcomes challenges for spectral analysis commonly encountered on works of art with complex matrices composed of both inorganic minerals and organic lakes.
