Patent attributes
In a general aspect, fields of electromagnetic radiation are imaged. In some aspects, an imaging method includes receiving electromagnetic radiation at a vapor-cell sensor. The method also includes passing beams of light through the vapor-cell sensor, one or more of the beams of light reflecting off a dielectric mirror of the vapor-cell sensor. The method additionally includes receiving at least one of the beams of light at an optical imaging system. The optical imaging system is configured to measure spatial properties of a beam of light. The method also includes determining one or both of an amplitude and a phase of the electromagnetic radiation based on spatial properties of the at least one received beam of light. Systems for imaging fields of electromagnetic radiation are also presented.
