Ozcan Group Improves Inference Accuracy for All-Optical Diffractive Neural Networks
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 13, 2019 — In new research, scientists from the Ozcan lab at UCLA have demonstrated distinct improvements to the inference and generalization performance of diffractive optical neural networks. The researchers demonstrated a differential detection scheme where each class is assigned to a separate pair of photodetectors, behind a diffractive optical network. The class inference is made by maximizing the normalized signal difference between the photodetector pairs. Using this scheme, which
Atomically Thin Optical Waveguide Channels Light in VIS Spectrum
LA JOLLA, Calif., Aug. 13, 2019 — Engineers at the University of California, San Diego, have developed a waveguide that is more than 10,000 times thinner than a typical optical fiber and about 500 times thinner than on-chip optical waveguides in integrated photonic circuits. The...

Classical Optics Offers Solution to Non-line-of-sight Imaging
MADISON, Wis., Aug. 8, 2019 — University of Wisconsin-Madison researchers have demonstrated non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging by using a method that applies the same math that is used to interpret images taken with conventional line-of-sight (LOS) imaging systems. The new method...
Where Are They Now?
Aug 7, 2019 — In 2016 Kaitlyn Williams was awarded the first Teddi C. Laurin Scholarship. A graduate student at the University of Arizona at the time, Williams was pursuing a master’s degree in optical engineering with a focus on lens design. While...
Light Controls Electrical Properties in Quantum Materials
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 7, 2019 — A new study from the University of Pennsylvania reports that Weyl semimetals, a class of quantum materials, have bulk quantum states whose electrical properties can be controlled using light. This work could contribute to a way to engineer and...
Schooling the solar industry
Aug 7, 2019 — At 13 years old, most of us aren’t making existing technologies obsolete with revolutionary ideas, but then again, most of us aren’t Georgia Hutchinson. For her school’s science fair, Hutchinson, an eighth grader from Woodside...
Scientists Image the Ultrafast Motion of a Rotating Molecule
HAMBURG, Germany, Aug. 6, 2019 — Scientists at the Center for Free-Electron Laser Science (CFEL) and the Max Born Institute (MBI) have used precisely tuned pulses of laser light to film the ultrafast rotation of a molecule. The resulting “molecular movie” tracks one and one-half...
Imager Could Help Autonomous Vehicles See Around Corners
STANFORD, Calif., Aug. 6, 2019 — An around-the-corner camera system built by engineers at Stanford University uses a wave-based image formation model to allow non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging. The system builds upon previous around-the-corner cameras developed by this team, but is...
Natural-Scale Snail Robot Is Powered by Light
WARSAW, Poland, Aug. 5, 2019 — A soft snail robot, developed by a team at the University of Warsaw with colleagues from Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, is capable of mimicking the adhesive locomotion of snails and slugs on a natural scale. The bioinspired robot is made from...
Quantum Light Sources Realized Via Site-Selective Defect Engineering
MUNICH, Aug. 5, 2019 — Someday, when photons can be used to transmit information at the speed of light, quantum light sources, connected with quantum fiber optic cables and detectors, will be needed. An international team led by physicists at the Technical University of...
Multiphoton Microscopy Reveals Lattice Network of Skin Fibers
KYOTO, Japan, Aug. 2, 2019 — Using multiphoton microscopy (MPM), researchers at Kyoto University showed that the collagen fibers in the skin are arranged in a mesh-like lattice and not in a clear geometric orientation as previously thought. They further found that the...
Sending Quantum Information Securely from Laser Light to a Quantum Dot
OSAKA, Japan, Aug. 1, 2019 — Scientists from Osaka University have used laser light to send quantum information to a quantum dot (QD) by altering the spin state of a single electron trapped on the QD. “This action allowed us to read the state of the electron after...
New Technique Retrieves Color Images from Scattered Light
DURHAM, N.C., July 30, 2019 — Engineers at Duke University have developed a method for extracting a color image from a single exposure of light scattered through a mostly opaque material. The new approach overcomes the limitations of conventional optical memory effect techniques...
Dynamically Tunable 'Smartlens' Can Shape Light for Various Functions
BARCELONA, July 30, 2019 — The integration of an adjustable-dynamic zoom lens in a thin cellphone, in a miniaturized microscope, or at the remote end of a medical endoscope requires complex lenses that can handle the full optical spectrum and be reshaped electrically within...
Nanoscale Photon Diode Could Further Next-Gen Computing Technologies
STANFORD, Calif., July 29, 2019 — Researchers at Stanford University are designing a way to make a photon diode, a device that allows light to flow in only one direction, small enough for consumer electronics. They have tested their design with computer simulations and calculations...
Terahertz Imaging System on a Chip Offers Speed and Portability
PRINCETON, N.J., July 29, 2019 — An imaging system developed at Princeton University uses lasers small enough to fit on a microchip, and emits and detects electromagnetic radiation at terahertz (THz) frequencies. The new system, which is based on a semiconductor design, uses a...
