  • CREOL Special Guest Lecture: Light a Path for Quantum Sensing, Jun Ye, University of Colorado

    CREOL : 103 and Virtual

    Talk title: Light a path for quantum sensing Talk abstract:  Lasers and quantum science have fueled revolutionary developments in atomic, molecular, and fundamental physics. Scaling up quantum systems to ever increasing sizes promises to revolutionize the performance of atomic clocks and open new discovery opportunities. Quantum technology has brought tens of thousands of atoms to minute-long coherence times, enabling the …

  • CREOL Seminar: Jeremy Bos, Michigan Technological University

    R1:101: Research 1, Room 101

    Title: Eyes on the Sky, Nowhere to Hide: Challenges in Full Sky Space Domain Awareness and Communications Abstract: When satellites are lower than thirty degrees above the horizon, the non-negligible path length through the atmosphere exceeds 100 km. Operations in this regime are sometimes referred to as being "in the soup" because turbulence effects dominate both seeing and optical communications. …

  • CREOL Fall Colloquium: David Miller, Stanford University

    CREOL : 103 and Virtual

     Title: Optics à la mode – a new way of making, using and understanding optics      Abstract: Modern micro and nano fabrication now let us make complex and highly functional optics. Examples include sophisticated metasurfaces and highly programmable and even self-configuring silicon photonic interferometer meshes, with many potential applications in areas such as imaging, sensing and communications. Such systems are, however, …
