METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PHOTOACOUSTIC TOMOGRAPHY USING OPTICAL ORBITAL ANGULAR MOMENTUM (OAM)

摘要

A method and system for remote sensing. The method includes applying an orbital angular momentum (OAM) mode on a light beam to generate an OAM light beam having an optical OAM spectrum, exposing a target object to the OAM light beam such that the target object absorbs energy of the OAM light beam to generate ultrasonic emissions, the ultrasonic emissions having a reflected OAM spectrum associated with the target object, and generating a high resolution image of the target object based on the reflected OAM spectrum.
