Summary

Story summary

East China Normal University researchers developed an imaging method called compressed spectral-temporal coherent modulation femtosecond imaging (CST-CMFI).
It captures ultrafast events within hundreds of femtoseconds by combining laser encoding and AI reconstruction.
It provides insights into plasma formation in water and charge carrier dynamics in ZnSe, while enabling simultaneous measurement of light intensity and phase.
