Quantum Imaging with Incoherently Scattered Light from a Free-Electron Laser

Raimund Schneider, Thomas Mehringer, Giuseppe Mercurio +20

The advent of accelerator-driven free-electron lasers (FEL) has opened new avenues for high-resolution structure determination via diffraction methods that go far beyond convention…

Thermal x-ray diffraction and near-field phase contrast imaging

Zheng Li, Anton Classen, Tao Peng +4

Using higher-order coherence of thermal light sources, the resolution power of standard x-ray imaging techniques can be enhanced. In this work, we applied the higher-order measurem…

Hanbury Brown and Twiss interference of electrons in free space from independent needle tip sources

Anton Classen, Raul Corrêa, Florian Fleischmann +4

We investigate two-electron interference in free space using two laser-triggered needle tips as independent electron sources, a fermionic realisation of the landmark Hanbury Brown…

Quantum Signatures of Two-Electron HBT Interference in Free Space

Florian Fleischmann, Mona Bukenberger, Anton Classen +2

Understanding how fermionic exchange and Coulomb repulsion jointly shape two-electron correlations is essential for identifying genuine quantum signatures in multi-electron interfe…

Analysis of intensity correlation enhanced plasmonic structured illumination microscopy

Anton Classen, Xinghua Liu, Aleksei M. Zheltikov +1

We propose to enhance the performance of localized plasmon structured illumination microscopy (LP-SIM) via intensity correlations. LP-SIM uses sub-wavelength illumination patterns…

Partial Coherence in modern optics: Emil Wolf's legacy in the 21st century

Girish S. Agarwal, Anton Classen

We highlight the impact of Emil Wolf's work on coherence and polarization on an ever increasing amount of applications in the 21 st century. We present a brief review of how partia…
