Photonic Chip Used as Quantum Simulator to Model Molecular Dynamics
An international scientific team has shown how an optical chip can simulate the motion of atoms within molecules at the quantum level. Data from the chip allows a frame-by-frame reconstruction of atomic motions to create a virtual movie of a molecule’s quantum vibrations.

Transparent Hybrid Film Changes Color in Response to Humidity
Scientists developed a transparent hybrid film and investigated its chromic behavior in relation to relative humidity (RH). The film is made from environmentally friendly clay minerals and a dye, magnesium porphyrin, which changes color in response to environmental humidity.

Holography for Display: From AR to HUD to 3D
Tue, Jun 12, 2018 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Because holograms have the advantage of being thin and light, they are finding application in the fields of augmented reality and head-up display, where constraints on the size and weight of the optics exist. Holograms can also be used for integral imaging-based 3D display, lensless projection, and lidar beam steering. Professor Pierre-Alexandre Blanche from the University of Arizona will discuss the application of holography in all of these areas and the technological advantages of holography over other techniques. This webinar is sponsored by RPMC Lasers Inc. and UnikLasers Ltd. and Radiant Vision Systems.

Optics and Astronomy
Wed, Jun 20, 2018 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
This webinar will cover optical and IR instruments for astronomy, with a particular focus on how innovations in adaptive optics and IR spectroscopy are pushing the technical and scientific envelope. The speaker will discuss how these optical tools can be used to make extremely sensitive and high fidelity measurements of astronomical objects at next-generation extremely large optical telescopes like the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT). The design and fabrication of novel astronomical instrumentation will be covered from both a scientific and an engineering standpoint.
