Near-Field Tomography without Phase Retrieval
Year: 2001
Type: article
Abstract: We investigate the near-field inverse scattering problem with evanescent waves. An analytic solution to this problem within the weak-scattering approximation is used to show that the usual Rayleigh limit may be overcome even when measurements are made without phase information. Applications to a novel form of three-dimensional microscopy with subwavelength resolution are described.
