Light Stage Super-Resolution: Continuous High-Frequency Relighting by Sun, Tiancheng, Xu, Zexiang, Zhang, Xiuming, Fanello, Sean, Rhemann, Christoph, Debevec, Paul, Tsai, Yun-Ta, Barron, Jonathan, Ramamoorthi, Ravi

“…To ameliorate these artifacts and produce better results under arbitrary high-frequency lighting, this paper proposes a learning-based solution for the "super-resolution" of scans of human faces taken from a light stage. Given an arbitrary "query" light direction, our method aggregates the captured images corresponding to neighboring lights in the stage, and uses a neural network to synthesize a rendering of the face that appears to be illuminated by a "virtual" light source at the query location. …”

Understanding the effect of chlorobenzene and isopropanol anti-solvent treatments on the recombination and interfacial charge accumulation in efficient planar perovskite solar cell... by Prochowicz, Daniel, Mohammad Mahdi Tavakoli, Solanki, Ankur, Goh, Teck Wee, Pandey, Kavita, Sum, Tze Chien, Saliba, Michael, Yadav, Pankaj

“…Perovskite absorber films were treated using CB and isopropanol (IPA) for comparing anti-solvents with different polarities. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) show that IPA treated perovskite films have a more uniform morphology with larger grains in comparison to CB processed perovskite films. …”
