Dwivedi, P. (author)Lenses are indispensable tool to perform imaging and see the small details of an object which was otherwise not possible. The smallest feature of an object that one can see using a lens depends on the numerical aperture (NA) of the lens and the used wavelength of light. For a fixed NA, the shorter the wavelength is, the smaller the features of...doctoral thesis 2019

Lu, Xingyuan (author), Shao, Y. (author), Zhao, C.L. (author), Konijnenberg, A.P. (author), Zhu, Xinlei (author), Tang, Y. (author), Cai, Yangjian (author), Urbach, Paul (author)We propose and experimentally demonstrate a noniterative diffractive imaging method for reconstructing the complex-valued transmission function of an object illuminated by spatially partially coherent light from the far-field diffraction pattern. Our method is based on a pinhole array mask, which is specially designed such that the...journal article 2019

(author), Haswell, Ralph (author), Proaño Gaibor, Art Ness (author), van Keulen, Henk (author), Leonhardt, Emilien (author), Dik, J. (author)The background of Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring (c. 1665, Mauritshuis) has, until recently, been interpreted as a flat dark space. The painting was examined in 2018 as part of the research project The Girl in the Spotlight using a combination of micro- and macro-scale analytical techniques. The stratigraphy of the background was...journal article 2019

(author)A seventeenth-century canvas painting is usually comprised of varnish and (translucent) paint layers on a substrate. A viewer’s perception of a work of art can be affected by changes in and damages to these layers. Crack formation in the multi-layered stratigraphy of the painting is visible in the surface topology. Furthermore, the impact of...journal article 2019

(author)We report on a study of the impact of coherent helical vortex structures on the shape of the reaction zone and heat release in swirling methane/air flames in regimes with a vortex breakdown. Three kinds of atmospheric flames are considered, viz., fuel-lean and fuel-rich premixed flames and a partially premixed fuel-rich lifted flame. Based on...journal article 2019

Dwivedi, P. (author), Konijnenberg, A.P. (author), Pereira, S.F. (author), Meisner, J.A. (author), Urbach, Paul (author)Ptychography is a form of coherent diffractive imaging; it employs far-field intensity patterns of the object to reconstruct the object. In ptychography, an important limiting factor for the reconstructed image quality is the uncertainty in the probe positions. Here, we propose a new approach which uses the hybrid input-output algorithm and...journal article 2019

Hu, F. (author), Wu, Jicang (author), Chang, Ling (author), Hanssen, R.F. (author)Multi-temporal interferometric synthetic apertureradar (MT-InSAR) is used for many applications in earthobservation. Most MT-InSAR methods select scatterers with highcoherence throughout the entire time series. However, as timeseries lengthen, inevitable changes in surface scattering leadto decorrelation, which systematically decreases the...journal article 2019

Bertocchi, F. (author), Rohde, M. (author), Kloosterman, J.L. (author)Gap vortex streets characterise many industrial applications involving rod bundle flows, such as heat exchangers and nuclear reactors. These structures, known as gap vortex streets, may excite the structural components of the bundle to resonance, leading to fretting and fatigue. This work aims to measure these coherent structures and the...journal article 2019

By concatenating beat-frequency signals from more than one sweep, a continuous beat-frequency signal for the whole coherent processing interval (CPI) can be created. As a result, continuous targets' observation time is extended beyond that of a single chirp duration...journal article 2019
