   Abstract:
   In this study, the authors demonstrate that interferometrically detected polychromatic fields scattered by small objects formed of nondispersive materials contain sufficient degrees of freedom for imaging resolution superior to that of monochromatic systems. It should be noted that the author's numerical analysis does not use Kirchhoff boundary conditions. In fact, when Kirchhoff boundary conditions are imposed on this system it is found that transinformation for any number of multiple frequencies automatically reduces to that of the highest scanning frequency.
