SCIEN Colloquia
Title: 3D Computational Microscopy
Speaker: Professor Laura Waller, University of California at Berkeley
When: Wednesday, January 13, 2016
Time: 4:15pm - 5:15pm
Location: Packard 101
Abstract:
This talk will describe new computational microscopy methods for high pixel-count 3D images. We describe two setups employing illumination-side and detection-side aperture coding of angle (Fourier) space for capturing 4D phase-space (e.g. light field) datasets with fast acquisition times. Using a multi-slice forward model, we develop efficient 3D reconstruction algorithms for both incoherent and coherent imaging models, with robustness to scattering. Experimentally, we achieve real-time 3D intensity and phase capture with high resolution across a large volume. Such computational approaches to optical microscopy add significant new capabilities to commercial microscopes without significant hardware modification.
