Active manipulation of light beams is required for a range of emerging optical technologies, including sensing, optical computing, virtual/augmented reality, dynamic holography, and computational imaging.
High quality factor ("high-Q") photonic technology has revolutionized information processing, communications, sensing and nonlinear optics. Researchers in the Dionne Group at Stanford have developed a scheme to generate, for the first time, high-Q phase gradient metasurfaces.
An interdisciplinary team of Stanford researchers is developing a dual axis confocal (“DAC”) microscope system for in vivo imaging of tissues at the cellular scale.
Researchers at the Solgaard Lab have demonstrated that light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) with structured and pivoting illumination enables fast image acquisition and improved image quality.
Stanford researchers at SLAC have designed a multi-frequency klystron that achieves efficiencies higher than conventional single frequency klystrons and simultaneously delivers substantial power at higher harmonic(s).
Precision in surgical removal of cancer is guided by pathological assessment of resected tissues, and there is a dire need to reduce the time and distance between the critical diagnostic events and the surgical procedure.
To determine the phase and magnitude of the complex electric field of
weak ultra-short pulses we propose to use a dummy strong pulse time
delayed relative to the weak pulse that needs to be characterized. This
