Resolution in Mid-Infrared Imaging: The Theory
The field of mid-infrared (mid-IR) imaging has made significant developments in recent years, but the theory has not kept pace. Rohit Bhargava, an associate professor of engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the associate director of the University of Illinois Cancer Center, recently undertook studies to address that gap. Spectroscopy spoke to him recently about that work.
