Whats the principle behind Schuster Focusing?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

Schuster Focusing is fundamentally linked to the asymmetry in the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of semiconductor devices. This principle is crucial for understanding how certain optical methods can enhance focus and resolution in imaging systems. The discussion highlights the importance of researching the I-V curve asymmetry to grasp the underlying mechanics of Schuster Focusing. Key resources include articles from IOPscience and Quora that provide further insights into this optical technique.

I know its something related to the asymmentry in the i-d curve but its still not clear.

there's lots of info on google etc, here's a couple of links, I'm sure with just a little effort, you can find many more

If, after reading some articles, there is something specific you don't understand, link to the article and
state the bit you are having trouble with :smile:Dave
