Scientists have finally packed a laboratory-class ultrafast laser onto a tiny photonic chip. Ultrafast lasers generate bursts of light that last only a few hundred femtoseconds, each one just a quadrillionth of a second long. These extremely short pulses are used in a wide range of technologies, including precision manufacturing, eye surgery, and optical frequency [...]
I recently returned from the international SPIE Photonics West Conference in San Francisco, having had two papers accepted for presentation and manuscripts published. It was an incredible opportunity for me that was a direct result from my summer at the Vaccine and Immunotherapy Center (VIC), Harvard Medical School, and the Wellman Centre for Photomedicine at Massachusetts General […] The post Al…
