Diffractive optics harness microscale surface relief patterns to sculpt optical wavefronts through diffraction, offering compact, lightweight alternatives to conventional refractive lenses. Recent ...
Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have unveiled a new optical technology that enables precise focusing of light—only in one direction. This novel unidirectional focusing ...
A depth-compensated diffractive optical element photoacoustic microscope enables more uniform photoacoustic imaging across tissue depths.
Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Twelve years ago at the AECOS meeting, a program chair asked the audience if in 10 years we would be able to ...
Diffractive optical elements (DOEs) are flat or hybrid microstructured surfaces that shape light through diffraction rather than refraction. By sculpting surface relief or embedding subwavelength ...
Increasingly complex applications such as artificial intelligence require ever more powerful and power-hungry computers to run. Optical computing is a proposed solution to increase speed and power ...
Chinese Scientists Use Digital Twins to Streamline AI Training on Light-Based Systems ...
A broad range of optical devices use nanostructured layers and surfaces to manipulate beams of light through diffraction and interference. Example devices include diffraction gratings, metasurfaces, ...
Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) scientists have used a classic optical phenomenon known as the Poisson spot to create stable patterns of light called optical skyrmions, ...
Spatially incoherent diffractive optical processors can handle data beyond non-negative values, potentially making them valuable in diverse scenarios, such as visual encryption and autonomous vehicle ...
The double-slit experiment, first performed by [Thomas Young] in 1801 provided the first definitive proof of the dual wave-particle nature of photons. A similar experiment can be performed that shows ...
