High-resolution imaging of electron beam-sensitive materials

KAUST · Feb 26 · Research Material Science

KAUST researchers developed a new methodology for high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging of beam-sensitive materials. The method addresses challenges in acquiring images with low electron doses, aligning images, and determining defocus values. The processes incorporate two provisional patents and are applicable to aligning nanosized crystals and noisy images with periodic features. Why it matters: This advancement enables the study of delicate materials like MOFs at atomic resolution, with broad applications in materials science and nanotechnology.

Learned Optics — Improving Computational Imaging Systems through Deep Learning and Optimization

MBZUAI · Mar 25 · CV Research

KAUST Professor Wolfgang Heidrich is researching computational imaging systems that jointly design optics and image reconstruction algorithms. He focuses on hardware-software co-design for imaging systems with applications in HDR, compact cameras, and hyperspectral imaging. Heidrich's work on HDR displays was the basis for Brightside Technologies, acquired by Dolby in 2007. Why it matters: This research aims to advance imaging technology through AI-driven design, potentially impacting various fields from consumer electronics to scientific research within the region and globally.
