Stanford researchers have developed a high throughput, low energy consumption, optical method for real-time, image differentiation (image sharpening) using a photonic crystal slab.
Stanford researchers have developed an optical coating that steers infrared and visual light in different paths while suppressing the typical undesired rainbow effect.
Stanford researchers at the Vuckovic Lab have created a computational nanophotonic design library for gradient-based optimization called the Stanford Photonic INverse design Software (Spins).
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.
Stanford researchers have developed a method to make non-ideal beam-splitters operate as perfect beam-splitters, using a double Mach-Zehnder interferometer.
Stanford researchers developed a device that converts microwave signals (quantum logic) to optical signals using a silicon-on-lithium-niobate photonic crystal cavity.
The Nanophotonic Light-Field (NLF) sensor enables a new generation of light field cameras capable of high sensitivity, high pixel density and faster shutter speeds.
