A super-resolution imaging technique based on the vortex electromagnetic (EM) wave, which carries orbital angular momentum (OAM), is reported in this paper. The proof-of-concept experiment for the EM vortex imaging is conducted. An imaging processing method based on the real-world OAM radar data is proposed to obtain the target profile. Experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed imaging method and demonstrate that the vortex EM wave can be exploited to image targets with high-resolution beyond the limit of the array aperture. This breakthrough on the Rayleigh limit paves the way for innovative techniques in radar imaging and remote sensing.
An unprecedented Ag(i)-catalyzed ligand-controlled stereodivergent 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides with 3-methyl-4-nitro-5-styrylisoxazoles has been developed to afford heterocycles bearing both methylisoxazole and pyrrolidine moieties. The endo- and exo-cycloadducts were obtained in good yields with excellent stereoselectivities, assisted by (t)Bu-Phosferrox and phosphoramidite as chiral ligands, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
