Wavefront Coding for Accommodation-Invariant Near-Eye Displays
Ugur Akpinar, Erdem Sahin, Tina M. Hayward +3
We present a new computational near-eye display method that addresses the vergence-accommodation conflict problem in stereoscopic displays through accommodation-invariance. Our sys…

Large-scale compressive microscopy via diffractive multiplexing across a sensor array
Kevin C. Zhou, Chaoying Gu, Muneki Ikeda +6
Microscopes face a trade-off between spatial resolution, field-of-view, and frame rate -- improving one of these properties typically requires sacrificing the others, due to the li…

Contrary to widespread belief, the Fresnel zone plate outperforms the metalens at high NA
Apratim Majumder, John A. Doughty, Tina H. Hayward Henry I. Smith +1
Rigorous simulations challenge recent claims that metalenses outperform conventional diffractive lenses, such as Fresnel Zone Plates (FZPs), in focusing efficiency at high numerica…
