Kenedi-Anderson Talks with Joshua Reynolds (Stanford University)

Measurement precision in optical and electron microscopy is limited by the total radiation dose that can be applied without perturbing or damaging the sample. To overcome this limit, the amount of information extracted per probe-sample interaction must be increased, for example, by conducting measurements using squeezed states of light. This talk introduces multi-pass and cavity-enhanced microscopy techniques that saturate quantum limits on measurement precision using only classical states of light. We demonstrate signal-to-noise enhancements beyond the shot-noise limit of the optical dose using these techniques in imaging flow cytometry and stimulated Raman scattering microscopy applications. Extensions to electron microscopy will be discussed.

Joshua Reynolds is a PhD student in Professor Mark Kasevich’s group at Stanford University, where he works on building optical and electron microscopes. He is interested in developing advanced sensing technologies for biology and fundamental physics. He completed a BA in physics at Williams College.
