Five MIT affiliates are among 17 recipients of the 2023 Optica Awards and Medals that celebrate those in the optics and photonics field who are making significant technical, research, education, business, leadership, and service accomplishments.

Nonlinear optics is the branch of optics that studies the properties and the interaction of light in a medium where the polarization density interacts nonlinearly with the electric field of light.

Optica named Robert Boyd of the University of Ottawa and the University of Rochester as the 2023 Frederic Ives Medal/Jarus W. Quinn Prize recipie

From the development of efficient quantum cascade lasers that cover most of the mid-infrared region to excimer lasers that provide a range of different UV wavelengths, advances in laser technologies mean that most applications can now make use of an appropriate laser source.

On-chip laser frequency combs are a promising technology for applications including environmental monitoring, optical computing, astronomy, and metrol

Researchers from Columbia University and Politecnico di Milano used an atomically thin material to build microscopic color converters. The advancement

The FemtoBlade laser employs a modular design that provides increased flexibility and high power at high repetition rates which will enable faster processing and improved throughput for micromachining applications, including OLED, PCB, ceramic and glass cutting, engraving, and solar cell processing.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Jan. 13, 2022 – NTT Research, Inc., a division of NTT (TYO:9432), today announced that the Physics of Quantum Electronics (PQE)

27 Jan 2021 Share: Researchers have found a way to effectively squeeze extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) wavelengths from white light. The teams new method compresses the spectral width of broadband visible white light combined with vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) to generate narrowband laser pulses within the extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) range. Fig. 1: (a) A specific colour can be selected from a broadband light source using e.g. a prism or a grating. This comes, however, at the expense of losing most of t...

Date Time Lab’s ACT-UP awards focus on collaborative research Gaia Righi, Ph.D. candidate from UC San Diego, works on a project titled “Dynamic Strength of Iron Under Phase Changing Conditions.” Righi and faculty adviser Marc Meyers work with Hye-Sook Park and Rob Rudd from LLNL. The team was awarded an ACT-UP award last year. With a focus on increasing joint research efforts between Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and universities, the Lab’s Weapon Physics and Design (WPD...
