Title: Molecular level metrology and imaging with topological light and free electrons

We demonstrate dimensional metrology and odometry (detection of change in position over time) with resolution on nanometric to picometric scales by analysing scattering of electrons or topologically structured light from the nanostructures using artificial intelligence. We show how these techniques can be applied to characterization and optimization of nano-opto-mechanical metamaterials and to fundamental studies of the dynamics of thermal motion and the physics of phonons in photonic nanostructures.
