Stanford inventors have developed a framework that performs digitally verifiable photonic matrix-vector multiplication in integrated photonic networks, which may potentially enable energy-efficient hash functions and cryptocurrency mining.
Stanford researchers designed and built a light sheet microscope that can be used for deconvolution-free, high resolution volumetric imaging of cleared tissue specimens.
Researchers at Stanford have developed methods for evaluating the position of a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) device in terms of phase and/or amplitude characteristics.
Stanford researchers have developed a scanning mirror and method for Rhodonea (Rose) scanning patterns, which are superior to Lissajous patterns for almost all imaging and ranging applications.
Engineers in the Solgaard lab have developed a high-speed, random access grating light valve (GLV) for phase modulation to steer and focus light in LIDAR and 3D imaging applications.
Stanford researchers have developed a novel, non-tracking and low cost solar concentrator - Axially Graded Index LEns: AGILE - that has potential to change the economy of the solar cell industry.
Stanford researchers successfully manufactured high quality optical components using commercially available 3D printing. The 3D printed optics were easy to fabricate and inexpensive.
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.
A team of Stanford engineers have developed a fast adaptive optics system for scanning, 3D imaging and sensing with a small (50 µm) multimode fiber (MMF).
This patented technology is a magnetically actuated photonic crystal sensor system. It utilizes a photonic crystal (PC) coupled to magnetic material which is then mounted on an optical fiber.
