Popis: Correlation plenoptic imaging (CPI) is a light-field imaging technique employing intensity correlation measurements to simultaneously detect the spatial distribution and the propagation direction of light. Compared to standard methods, in which light-field images are directly encoded in intensity, CPI provides a significant enhancement of the volumetric reconstruction performance in terms of both achievable depth of field and 3D resolution. In this article, we present a novel CPI configuration where light-field information is encoded in correlations between position and momentum measurements, namely, points on a given object plane and points of the Fourier plane of the imaging lens. Besides the fundamental interest in retrieving the properties of position-momentum correlation, the proposed scheme overcomes practical limitations of previously proposed setups, providing higher axial homogeneity and robustness with respect to the identification of reference planes.
