Researchers Customize Broadband Light Sources Using a Photonic Chip and AI
QUEBEC CITY, Canada, and BRIGHTON, England, Nov. 26, 2018 — Researchers from Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS) and the University of Sussex have collaborated to create an optical device that uses AI to control the properties of light. Using an actively controlled photonic chip, the researchers prepared and manipulated patterns of femtosecond (fs) optical pulses. These pulses enabled access to an enhanced parameter space within the framework of supercontinuum generation (i.e., the generation of extended light spectra through intense...

SYDNEY, Australia, Nov. 5, 2018 — An optical circuit based on the principles of topology could provide protection for propagation of the biphoton states that will be needed for quantum computing, in order to inhibit scattering or loss of photons. Researchers at the University of...
Texas Petawatt Laser to Be Used in LaserNetUS Collaborative Network
AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 2, 2018 — The University of Texas at Austin will be a key player in LaserNetUS, a new national network of institutions operating high-intensity, ultrafast lasers. UT Austin houses one of the most powerful lasers in the country, the Texas Petawatt Laser. The...
Photodetector Mimics Directional Hearing in Small Animals
PALO ALTO, Calif., Nov. 2, 2018 — Researchers from Stanford University have drawn from nature — specifically, the ear structure of the gecko — to devise a subwavelength photodetection pixel that can measure both the intensity and incident angle of light. Geckos and many...
OCTA Could Help Detect Early-Stage Alzheimer's
DURHAM, N.C., Nov. 2, 2018 — Researchers at Duke University used optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), a noninvasive imaging technique, to show that the small blood vessels in the retina at the back of the eye are altered in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. The...
New Laser Network Gives Scientists Access to High-Intensity, Ultrafast Lasers
LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 2, 2018 — Nine institutions across the country have joined a new U.S.-wide national research network called LaserNetUS. The collaboration includes the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, University of Texas at Austin, Ohio State,...
Eye Tracker Could Improve AR Displays
HANOVER, N.H., Nov. 2, 2018 — A battery-free eye tracker developed at Dartmouth College uses NIR lights and photodiodes, instead of cameras, to make the system energy efficient and less bulky. The wearable eye tracker tracks both the 2D position and diameter of the pupil. Small...
