Photonics Researchers Win Blavatnik Awards

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
The Blavatnik Family Foundation and the New York Academy of Sciences has recognized two photonics researchers with the 2014 Blavatnik National Awards. The award honors young American scientists and engineers; each winner receives $250,000. The three national laureates and 27 finalists will be honored at the American Museum of Natural History in New York in September. Dr. Adam Cohen, a professor of chemistry, chemical biology and physics at Harvard University, was recognized for work on cellular imaging techniques that allow for the observation of neural activity in real time with...Read full article

    nonlinear optics
    Nonlinear optics is a branch of optics that studies the optical phenomena that occur when intense light interacts with a material and induces nonlinear responses. In contrast to linear optics, where the response of a material is directly proportional to the intensity of the incident light, nonlinear optics involves optical effects that are not linearly dependent on the input light intensity. These nonlinear effects become significant at high light intensities, such as those produced by...
