The objectives of the research are to construct new types of imaging devices and develop their associated imaging methods in order to make new measurements of the properties of matter. The imaging devices being constructed as based on holography and interferometry using the interference of electrons, photons, acoustic waves, sonar and radio waves. One imaging device and its associated methods, confocal holography (CH), were patented in 2009 and 2011. CH is applicable for the use of electrons, lasers, sonar, acoustic waves and radio waves. CH is unique as it enables obtaining a three-dimensional (3D) image of an object being viewed from one direction, i.e., no rotation of the object or imaging device is required. Using lasers, it measures the 3D temperature distribution of a heated fluid proving its concepts as a valid imaging and measurement method. Using acoustic beams, it is being developed to detect regions of healthy and diseased tissue in the human body, initially targeting the prostate for cancer. Using radio waves, CH is being investigated for measuring the Earth atmosphere's 3D temperature, pressure and composition, targeting climate change monitoring and enhanced knowledge of the atmosphere sciences. In the near future, electron-based CH will image and measure the 3D properties of a solid's atomic, electronic and quasiparticle (phonons, plasmons, excitons, etc) structures at the nanoscale and even sub-atomic scale using an ultra-high resolution scanning transmission electron holography microscope (STEHM) being constructed by this NSERC Discovery Grant applicant. Using sonar, a unique CH design exists but not yet implemented to continuously measure the ocean's temperature, pressure and composition from the ocean's surface to the seafloor with the depth limited by the back-reflection intensity. This sonar device will also target climate change monitoring and enhance our knowledge of the ocean sciences. Each of the objects being investigated by CH, i.e., quasiparticles, atoms, molecules, liquids, gases, the human body, the ocean and the Earth's atmosphere, are complex, challenging and require a good understanding for the intended measurements made possible by collaboration with experts in these respectively fields of study.

该研究的目标是构建新型成像设备并开发其相关成像方法，以便对物质的特性进行新的测量。使用电子，光子，声波，声波和无线电波的干扰，以全息图和干扰法构建成像设备。一种成像装置及其相关方法是共聚焦全息图（CH），在2009年和2011年获得专利。CH适用于使用电子，激光器，声纳，声波和无线电波。 CH是唯一的，因为它可以从一个方向观看的对象获得三维（3D）图像，即不需要对象或成像设备的旋转。使用激光器，它测量了加热流体的3D温度分布，证明其概念是有效的成像和测量方法。使用声学束，正在开发它来检测人体健康和患病组织的区域，最初针对前列腺癌。使用无线电波，正在研究CH，以测量地球大气的3D温度，压力和组成，靶向气候变化监测并增强对大气科学的了解。在不久的将来，基于电子的CH将在纳米级的固体，电子，电子和准粒子（声子，等离子，激子，激子等）结构的3D特性，甚至使用超高分辨率扫描的透射传输微学质（Stehm）构造的n serd Discortion。使用Sonar，存在独特的CH设计，但尚未实施，以连续测量海洋的温度，压力和成分从海洋表面到海底，深度受反射强度的限制。该声纳设备还将针对气候变化监测并增强我们对海洋科学的了解。 CH，即准原子，分子，液体，气体，人体，海洋和地球大气层进行研究的每个对象都是复杂的，具有挑战性的，并且需要与与这些研究领域的专家协作所能实现的预期测量。
