Imaging

Researchers at East China Normal University have developed a new imaging technique that captures ultrafast events in trillionths of a second, revealing both brightness and structural changes in a single shot. The method, called compressed spectral-temporal coherent modulation femtosecond imaging (CST-CMFI), tracks phenomena like plasma formation and electron movement. Yunhua Yao, the team leader, described it as a major advance for physics, chemistry, and materials science.
