arXiv:2511. 15022v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Complex-valued Gaussian primitives have recently been explored for representing holographic radiance fields in 3D novel view synthesis.
RefracGS is a novel framework for generating novel views through refractive water surfaces. It jointly reconstructs the water surface using a neural height field and the underlying scene with a 3D Gaussian field, employing refraction‑aware Gaussian ray tracing based on Snell’s law. The method achieves high‑fidelity view synthesis, outperforms prior refractive approaches, and offers 15× faster training with real‑time rendering at 200 FPS.
arXiv:2405. 01558v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Rendering holograms for holographic displays is often an iterative and computationally costly process.
The paper proposes an all‑reflective two‑mirror projection system for EUV lithography that achieves a 4× demagnification at a numerical aperture close to unity (NA≈0.993). Unlike conventional EUV objectives that use 6–10 aspheric mirrors and have <15 % throughput, the design uses a fixed two‑reflection path for each accepted diffraction order, retaining 50–60 % of the power and eliminating order‑dependent phase shifts. The authors optimize 30‑bilayer Bragg coatings for each mirror facet, formulate a 3‑D vector model for a two‑dimensionally periodic mask, and use inverse lithography with a differentiable modal solver to demonstrate simulated sub‑10‑nm aerial images with resolved peaks up to 5 nm defocus.
arXiv:2603. 07664v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The reflective appearance, especially strong and typically near-field specular reflections, poses a fundamental challenge for accurate surface reconstruction and novel view synthesis.
arXiv:2505.05848v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Modern 3D reconstruction and novel view synthesis approaches have demonstrated strong performance on scenes with opaque, non-refractive objects. Ho...
