+ | ===== Research Interests ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | My research is in optical physics, with a particular emphasis on efficient modeling using phase space distributions as well as computational imaging. Phase space distributions are tools that allow a wave to be described in terms of classical trajectories, | ||

+ | My second area of research interest is computational imaging. Prior to the development of the computational power in modern computers, it was generally efficient to directly image the quantity of interest in a sample. This led to the development of sophisticated optical systems, often with the goal of accurately reproducing the light transmitted through or reflected from a sample of interest. Additional optical elements such as polarizers or color filters could enable certain parts of an optical field to be directly measured. However, because light waves oscillate too quickly for us to detect their instantaneous waveform, traditional imaging systems are limited to capturing data about the time-averaged power arriving at the sensor. Computational imaging involves taking advantage of the fact that modern detectors are digital and their measurements can be fed directly into powerful computers. A raw image need not look anything like a traditional image so long as we have a model for how the measured intensity relates to the quantity of interest. The computer can then be used as a tool to invert this model and recover the quantity of interest. In fact, by designing a computational imaging system in an appropriate way, one can obtain enough information to recover the full optical waveform. My research focuses on the design and use of computational imaging systems to recover this additional information and also includes optics beyond the visible regime in collaboration with the Center for X-ray Optics. | ||
