We present super-resolved coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy by implementing phase-resolved image scanning microscopy, achieving up to two-fold resolution increase as compared with a conventional CARS microscope. Phase-sensitivity is required for the standard pixel-reassignment procedure since the scattered field is coherent, thus the point-spread function is well-defined only for the field amplitude. We resolve the complex field by a simple add-on to the CARS setup enabling inline interferometry. Phase-sensitivity offers additional contrast which informs the spatial distribution of both resonant and nonresonant scatterers. As compared with alternative super-resolution schemes in coherent nonlinear microscopy, the proposed method is simple, requires only low-intensity excitation, and is compatible with any conventional forward-detected CARS imaging setup.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the effectiveness of a new ultrasound technique for imaging kidney blood vessels in pigs using a specialized device called a sparse spiral array.
- Researchers used different microbubble concentrations and transmission sequences to capture detailed 3D images and assess blood flow in the kidneys, comparing their findings to results from a standard 2-D ultrasound.
- The results showed that the new method successfully visualized kidney vasculature and blood flow, providing accurate and reliable data that matched traditional ultrasound results.

Methods to probe and understand the dynamic response of materials following impulsive excitation are important for many fields, from materials and energy sciences to chemical and neuroscience. To design more efficient nano, energy, and quantum devices, new methods are needed to uncover the dominant excitations and reaction pathways. In this work, we implement a newly-developed superlet transform-a super-resolution time-frequency analytical method-to analyze and extract phonon dynamics in a laser-excited two-dimensional (2D) quantum material.

A common optical carrier is shifted by four GHz-scale tones, each modulated with distinct ranging waveforms, which when transmitted from a Si-photonic 2D wavelength-steered serpentine optical phased array (SOPA) aperture form an encoded rectangular beam cluster that propagates to and scatters from a distant point target. Superposed backscattered target returns from each beam are decoded by correlation with reference waveforms at the receiver.

High-resolution automotive radar sensors are required to meet the high bar of autonomous vehicle needs and regulations. However, current radar systems are limited in their angular resolution, causing a technological gap. An industry and academic trend to improve angular resolution by increasing the number of physical channels also increases system complexity, requires sensitive calibration processes, lowers robustness to hardware malfunctions, and drives higher costs.
