Abstract
Quantum resolution imaging methods and devices are disclosed herein. The quantum resolution imaging device comprises an optical component provided to receive incoming radiation, a mode separating structure for separating the received incoming radiation into multiple modes, and an imaging array having multiple array elements for measuring an energy level of each mode to construct an image of the received incoming radiation as it comes in contact with a surface of one of the array elements.

A sub-diffraction super-resolution imaging device, comprising:
- an aperture with optical component provided to receive incoming radiation;
- a mode separating structure for separating the received incoming radiation into multiple modes;
- and
- a detector array having multiple elements for measuring an energy level of each mode to construct a modal distribution of which the image may be reconstructed from.
