Single-pulse real-time billion-frames-per-second planar imaging of ultrafast nanoparticle-laser dynamics and temperature in flames

Unburnt hydrocarbon flames produce soot, which is the second biggest contributor to global warming and harmful to human health. The state-of-the-art high-speed imaging techniques, developed to study non-repeatable turbulent flames, are limited to …

Ultrafast phase imaging of propagating current flows in myelinated axons and electromagnetic pulses in dielectrics

Visualization of the spatiotemporal dynamics of propagation is fundamental to understanding dynamic processes ranging from action potentials to electromagnetic pulses, the two ultrafast processes in biology and physics, respectively. Here, we …

Ultrafast and hypersensitive phase imaging of propagating internodal current flows in myelinated axons and electromagnetic pulses in dielectrics

Many ultrafast phenomena in biology and physics are fundamental to our scientific understanding but have not yet been visualized owing to the extreme speed and sensitivity requirements in imaging modalities. Two examples are the propagation of …
