Popis: Photoluminescence is a powerful probe of chemical composition and structure, but it is challenging to image heterogeneous materials over large scale. Thoury et al. develop a full-field imaging approach to map two cuprous oxide phases in the earliest known lost-wax cast artefact manufactured 6,000 years ago.
