More sensitive X-ray imaging

Improvements in the material that converts X-rays into light, for medical or industrial images, could allow a tenfold signal enhancement.

Opportunities in optical microresonators: fundamentals and applications—Mar. 29

Join the Department of Materials Science & Engineering for a talk by Prof. Lan Yang on opportunities in optical micro resonators. This talk will cover ultra-high-quality whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) optical microresonators, which provide an unprecedented capability to trap light in a highly confined volume smaller than a strand of human hair.

Part of the Materials Science and Engineering Seminar Series.

2:00PM - 3:00PM EDT
Chipman Room (6-104)
