A Neural Differential Equation Formulation for Modeling Atmospheric Effects in Hyperspectral Images

Atmospheric correction is the process for removing atmospheric effects from spectral data; a necessary step for recovering salient spectral properties. The complex interactions between the atmosphere and light are dominated by absorbance and scattering physics. Existing methods for modeling atmospheric interactions typically rely on deep knowledge of relevant environmental conditions and high-fidelity numerical simulations of the governing physics in order to obtain accurate estimates of these effects. Additionally, existing approaches often require a subject matter expert for pre/post-processing of the data. Model-based approaches for removing atmospheric effects struggle in situations where such domain expertise is not available, and require significant human effort and computational power even when that expertise is available. In contrast, we propose a data-driven approach the uses Neural Differential Equations (NDEs) to accurately learn the interactions between electromagnetic radiation and the atmospheric without access to location specific environmental information. Once trained, the NDE can be applied bi-directionally; to apply or remove atmospheric effects. We demonstrate the effectiveness and utility of these techniques on an example multi-spectral scene.

Hyperspectral imaging of exciton confinement within a moiré unit cell with a subnanometer electron probe

Electronic and optical excitations in two-dimensional systems are distinctly sensitive to the presence of a moiré superlattice. Here we used cryogenic transmission electron microscopy and spectroscopy to simultaneously image the structural reconstruction and associated localization of the lowest-energy intralayer exciton in a rotationally aligned WS 2 -WSe 2 moiré superlattice. In conjunction with optical spectroscopy and ab initio calculations, we determined that the exciton center-of-mass wave function is confined to a radius of approximately 2 nanometers around the highest-energy stacking site in the moiré unit cell. Our results provide direct evidence that atomic reconstructions lead to the strongly confining moiré potentials and that engineering strain at the nanoscale will enable new types of excitonic lattices.

Rapid simulations of hyperspectral near-field images of three-dimensional heterogeneous surfaces – part II

The modeling of the near-field interaction in the scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscope (s-SNOM) is rapidly advancing, although an accurate yet versatile modeling framework that can be easily adapted to various complex situations is still lacking. In this work, we propose a time-efficient numerical scheme in the quasi-electrostatic limit to capture the tip-sample interaction in the near field. This method considers an extended tip geometry, which is a significant advantage compared to the previously reported method based on the point-dipole approximation. Using this formalism, we investigate, among others, nontrivial questions such as uniaxial and biaxial anisotropy in the near-field interaction, the relationship between various experimental parameters (e.g. tip radius, tapping amplitude, etc.), and the tip-dependent spatial resolution. The demonstrated method further sheds light on the understanding of the contrast mechanism in s-SNOM imaging and spectroscopy, while also representing a valuable platform for future quantitative analysis of the experimental observations.
