Lensless Wiener–Khinchin telescope based on second-order spatial autocorrelation of thermal light

The resolution of a conventional imaging system based on first-order field correlation can be directly obtained from the optical transfer function. However, it is challenging to determine the resolution of an imaging system through random media, including imaging through scattering media and imaging through randomly inhomogeneous media, since the point-to-point correspondence between the object and the image plane in these systems cannot be established by the first-order field correlation anymore. In this Letter, from the perspective of ghost imaging, we demonstrate for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, that the point-to-point correspondence in these imaging systems can be quantitatively recovered from the second-order correlation of light fields, and the imaging capability, such as resolution, of such imaging schemes can thus be derived by analyzing second-order autocorrelation of the optical transfer function. Based on this theoretical analysis, we propose a lensless Wiener–Khinchin telescope based on second-order spatial autocorrelation of thermal light, which can acquire the image of an object by a snapshot via using a spatial random phase modulator. As an incoherent imaging approach illuminated by thermal light, the lensless Wiener–Khinchin telescope can be applied in many fields such as X-ray astronomical observations.     

In—Line Phase—Contrast Imaging Using Parially Coherent Hard X—Ray

An experimental study of in-line hard x-ray phase-contrast imaging had been performed,using the polychromatic output of an x-ray tube.The results are in good agreement with partially coherent theory of hard x-ray phase contrast imaging.The new technique provides the advantage to obtain the radiographs of large samples in an acceptable exposure time,which is very important to clinical applications.
