Sub-Rayleigh Imaging via N-Photon Detection

The Rayleigh diffraction bound sets the minimum separation for two point objects to be distinguishable in a conventional imaging system. We demonstrate sub-Rayleigh resolution by scanning a focused beam—in an arbitrary, object-covering pattern that is unknown to the imager—and using N-photon photode...
