Recent years have seen staggering growth in the prevalence of digital cameras. Conventional digital cameras are designed to mimic the response of the human eye, and therefore record the intensities of three spectral channels: red, green and blue (RGB). This project aims to harness recent advances in nano-optics for the realisation of a new generation of digital cameras. Rather than performing simple colour (RGB) imaging, these will be capable of multispectral and polarisation-resolved imaging, whose richer information will be beneficial for applications from medical diagnostics to industrial quality control. These capabilities will be enabled by optical nanostructures that deflect light in a wavelength- and polarisation-dependent manner.

近年来，数码相机的普及率增长惊人。传统的数码相机被设计为模仿人眼的反应，因此记录三个光谱通道的强度：红色，绿色和蓝色（RGB）。该项目旨在利用纳米光学的最新进展实现新一代数码相机。它们将能够进行多光谱和偏振分辨成像，而不是进行简单的彩色（RGB）成像，其更丰富的信息将有利于从医疗诊断到工业质量控制的应用。这些能力将通过光学纳米结构实现，这些纳米结构以波长和偏振依赖的方式偏转光。
