Optical super-oscillation and super-oscillatory optical devices

传统光学器件的衍射极限极大地制约了远场超分辨光学系统的进一步发展.如何从光学器件层面突破光学衍射极限瓶颈,实现非标记远场超分辨光学成像,是光学领域面临的巨大挑战.光学超振荡在不依靠倏逝波的条件下,可以在远场实现任意小的亚波长光场结构,这为突破光学衍射极限提供了一条崭新的途径.近年来,光学超振荡现象和超振荡光学器件的相关研究得到了快速发展,在理论和实验上成功地演示了超振荡光场的产生和多种超振荡光学器件,并在实验上展示了超振荡光学器件在非标记远场超分辨光学显微、成像以及超高密度数据存储等应用领域的巨大优势和应用潜力.本文对光学超振荡相关理论、超振荡光学器件设计理论和方法、超振荡光学器件发展现状、超振荡光场测试方法以及超振荡光学器件的应用等方面进行详细介绍和分析.

The diffraction limit of traditional optical device greatly restricts the further development of optical super-resolution systems.It is a great challenge to overcome the diffraction limit at a device level,and achieve label-free far-field superresolution imaging.Optical super-oscillation provides a new way to realize super-resolution since it allows the generation of arbitrary small structures in optical fields in the absence of evanescent waves.The researches of optical super-oscillation and super-oscillatory optical devices have grown rapidly in recent decades.Optical super-oscillation and super-oscillatory optical devices have been demonstrated theoretically and experimentally to show great potential applications in labelfree far-field optical microscopy,far-field imaging and high-density data storage.In this paper,we gives a broad review of recent development in optical super-oscillation and super-oscillatory optical devices,including basic concepts,design tools and methods,testing techniques for super-oscillatory optical field,and their applications.
