Abstract
Enhancing the ability to resolve axial details is crucial in three-dimensional optical imaging. We provide experimental evidence showcasing the ultimate precision achievable in axial localization using vortex beams. For Laguerre-Gauss (LG) beams, this remarkable limit can be attained with just a single intensity scan. This proof-of-principle demonstrates that microscopy techniques based on LG vortex beams can potentially benefit from the introduced quantum-inspired superresolution protocol.
