Imaging Without Limit, on Demand
A team at Columbia University has introduced a way to program a layered crystal in such a way that it is able to open doors to imaging capabilities beyond common limits, on demand. The technique exerts control over nanolight — light that is able to access the nanoscale — providing insight into the field of optical quantum information processing.

Optical Coating Simultaneously Reflects, Transmits Same Wavelength
A multi-institutional team led by professor Chunlei Guo from the University of Rochester’s Institute of Optics has developed an optical coating capable of simultaneously reflecting and transmitting the same wavelength. The new class of optical coatings has been dubbed Fano Resonance Optical Coatings (FROCs). The advance could significantly improve the efficiency of devices using hybrid thermal-electric power generation as a solar energy option.

3D-Printing Method Enables Microscale Spectrometer
Researchers from the University of Stuttgart have developed a microscale spectrometer that can be fabricated through femtosecond direct laser writing. The angle-insensitive 3D-printed miniature spectrometer has a direct separated spatial-spectral response, and a volume of less than 100 × 100 × 300 µm3.

Choosing the Right Fused Silica for Applications in the Near-Infrared (NIR)
Tue, Mar 2, 2021 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EST
The range of applications in the NIR spectrum is expanding. Many of these are laser based. Finding the most suitable fused silica for a particular application can be challenging. In this webinar with Todd Jaeger, Ph.D., Head of Sales - Optics at Heraeus Conamic, you will learn about what material properties effect performance, what characteristics are key for your application and how to balance price and performance. Presented by Heraeus Conamic (Heraeus Quartz North America).

.: All Things Photonics

The latest in quantum computing and quantum optics is our focus, as Dirk Englund from MIT’s Quantum Photonics Laboratory shares his insights on the latest in materials processing, PICS, photonics entrepreneurship, and more. UCLA’s Aydogan Ozcan talks about his latest work, “Terahertz pulse shaping using diffractive surfaces,” in Part One of a two-part segment.
