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.
A team of interdisciplinary researchers at Stanford have developed a small, lightweight optical strain sensor device to sensitively measure forces within the mitral valve apparatus to help determine the appropriate repair technique for patients undergoing valvular surgery for
Researchers at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have developed a cost-effective method for using low temperature microwave annealing to create diode termination contacts on silicon sensors.
Stanford researchers have developed a novel tomographic technique, cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopic tomography, to probe optical properties in 3D with nanometer-scale spatial and spectral resolution.
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).
Stanford researchers have invented a system for identifying head impacts and rejecting spurious motion events. The system has been implemented in an instrumented mouthguard which measures head kinematics on the sports field.
