A method of imaging comprises: generating a superoscillatory field from coherent electromagnetic radiation; placing an object in the superoscillatory field; detecting one or more intensity distributions of the superoscillatory field scattered by the object; and determining at least one characteristic of the object from the one or more intensity distributions.

Method and apparatus for super-resolution optical imaging

An optical method of characterizing an object comprises providing an object to be characterized, the object having at least one nanoscale feature; illuminating the object with coherent plane wave optical radiation having a wavelength larger than the nanoscale feature; capturing a diffraction intensity pattern of the radiation which is scattered by the object; supplying the diffraction intensity pattern to a neural network trained with a training set of diffraction intensity patterns corresponding to other objects with a same nanoscale feature as the object to be characterized, the neural network configured to recover information about the object from the diffraction intensity pattern; and making a characterization of the object based on the recovered information.
