Article Abstract
The space-variant wavefront reconstruction problem inherently exists in deep tissue imaging. In this paper, we propose a framework of Shack-Hartmann wavefront space-variant sensing with extended source illumination. The space-variant wavefront is modeled as a four-dimensional function where two dimensions are in the spatial domain and two are in the Fourier domain with priors that both gently vary. Here, the affine transformation is used to characterize the wavefront space-variant function. Correspondingly, the zonal and modal methods are both escalated to adapt to four-dimensional representation and reconstruction. Experiments and simulations show double to quadruple improvements in space-variant wavefront reconstruction accuracy compared to the conventional space-invariant correlation method.

Metasurface-based optical elements typically manipulate light waves by imparting space-variant changes in the amplitude and phase with a dense array of scattering nanostructures. The highly localized and low optical-quality-factor (Q) modes of nanostructures are beneficial for wavefront shaping as they afford quasi-local control over the electromagnetic fields. However, many emerging imaging, sensing, communication, display and nonlinear optics applications instead require flat, high-Q optical elements that provide substantial energy storage and a much higher degree of spectral control over the wavefront.

Composed of ultrathin metal or dielectric nanostructures, metasurfaces can manipulate the phase, amplitude and polarization of electromagnetic waves at a subwavelength scale, which is promising for flat optical devices. In general, metasurfaces composed of space-variant anisotropic units are sensitive to the incident polarization due to the inherent polarization dependent geometric phase. Here, we implement polarization-independent broadband metasurface holograms constructed by polarization-dependent anisotropic elliptical nanoholes by elaborate design of complex amplitude holograms.

In the super resolution imaging system, a lens and an axicon that can generate spherical wavefronts and non-diffracting Bessel beams respectively are both essential yet difficult to integrate using the traditional approach. We propose a new concept of a "Bessel-lens" to indicate unique optical elements that merge the functionalities of lenses and axicons simultaneously. The Bessel-lens is a mission that is extremely difficult if not impossible for state-of-the-art technology because of the exotic phase profile.

This speed serves as a novel contrast not previously exploited in the literature. The algorithm employs early photon arrival times (EPATs) extracted from a set of time domain measurements.
