The Rise of Micro-Optics Shows No Sign of Slowing
Jan 6, 2023 — Micro-optics are a key enabler in the modern world, spurring advancements in consumer electronics, automotive lighting, and the next generation of autonomous vehicles. As demand grows from sectors far and wide, new fabrication approaches — some borrowed from the microchip industry — are allowing for faster and more economical production.
Creative Fabrication Yields a Phase Shift for Diffractive Optics
Aug 4, 2022 — Whether they take the shape of Fresnel lenses and spirals — or something resembling topographical maps, peacock features, or hyperbolas — diffractive optical elements (DOEs) are designed to introduce a particular phase shift to incoming light to...
Quantitative Phase Imaging, Biophotonics Pioneer Gabriel Popescu Dies
CHAMPAIGN, Ill., June 21, 2022 — Gabriel Popescu, the William L. Everitt Distinguished Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering in the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Grainger College of Engineering, died June 16. Popescu established and directed the Quantitative...
Diffractive Solar Sail Project Gets Green Light at NASA
WASHINGTON, D.C., May 30, 2022 — NASA has selected a solar sail concept for development toward a demonstration mission with potential to advance space travel beyond what is currently possible. The Diffractive Solar Sailing project was selected for Phase III study under the NASA...
Omega Optical Holdings Acquires Two Companies

RIT Professor to Develop Diffractive Solar Sails
ROCHESTER, N.Y., May 1, 2019 — A new approach to solar sail design using diffractive optics could be the key to helping spacecraft photograph the poles of the sun for the first time. Over the next two years, Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) professor Grover Swartzlander...
Top SPIE Optics Award Goes to RMIT Physicist
MELBOURNE, Australia, Jan. 9, 2019 — The International Society for Optics and Photonics (SPIE) has announced Min Gu as the 2019 recipient of the Dennis Gabor Award in Diffractive Optics, an award named in honor of the Nobel-winning inventor of holography, Dennis Gabor. Professor Gu is...
Wireless RoboFly Spreads Its Wings and Flies Solo
Oct 26, 2018 — Slightly heavier than a toothpick and powered by a laser beam, an insect-sized flying robot could help survey crop growth and sniff out gas leaks. These miniaturized drones, which soar by fluttering tiny wings rather than by rotating propellers, use...
Glasses-free 3-D could be coming to a mobile display near you
PALO ALTO, Calif. – While developing optical interconnect technology, engineers at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories realized what they had created could be much more: a multiangle, glasses-free 3-D display technology for mobile devices. Dr. David Fattal is a member of...
Glasses-Free 3-D Display Well Suited for Mobile Devices
PALO ALTO, Calif., March 27, 2013 — A new glasses-free 3-D display based on diffractive optics modulates at video rates and shows images that can be viewed from multiple angles even when the display is tilted, making it well suited for mobile devices.
