Researchers at Stanford have designed a new nanophotonic detector to reduce cost, size and power consumption compared to existing thermal infrared (IR) cameras.
Stanford researchers have developed a high throughput, low energy consumption, optical method for real-time, image differentiation (image sharpening) using a photonic crystal slab.
Researchers in Prof. Shanhui Fan's laboratory have invented a thermal extraction device that is designed to enhance power emission from thermal radiators up to 10x compared to conventional structures.
