Researchers at Stanford have developed a near-eye display enabling both Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) modes with dynamically controlled contrast.
The Dionne lab has developed ultrathin and compact devices for electrically driven beamsteering that fit on a semiconductor chip. These devices rely on resonant dielectric nanostructured surfaces known as "high quality factor" (high-Q) metasurfaces.
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 patented a method to design, computationally optimize and fabricate efficient optical devices using semiconducting and dielectric nanostructures.
Stage of research
Researchers designed electro-optical gratings for fluorescence microscopy - a drop in to existing systems with no new lenses. Researchers demonstrate a 9x improvement on FOV using Olympus 10x/0.6NA WI immersion objective at 3.3 Hz.
