Three Rochester faculty members receive nation’s highest honor for early-career investigators
Ehsan Hoque, William Renninger, and Petros Tzeferacos have been named Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) recipients.
New surface acoustic wave techniques could lead to surfing a quantum internet
Researchers have developed new methods to couple light to sound waves that glide on surfaces.
Tapered optical fiber addresses challenge posed by Brillouin scattering
Rochester researchers achieve strong optical-acoustic interactions with long-lived acoustic waves.
Novel chirped pulses defy ‘conventional wisdom’
Rochester researchers have advanced a groundbreaking technique first pioneered at the University’s Laboratory for Laser Energetics. As a result, they’ve produced chirped pulses in a way that works even with relatively low-quality, inexpensive equipment.
Rochester researchers document record-setting optical fiber
The innovative fiber—made of seven capillaries surrounding a hollow core—may be a promising platform for quantum information processing and other applications.
Project creates more powerful, versatile ultrafast laser pulse
Institute of Optics research sets record for shortest pulse for newly developed technology, work that has important applications in engineering and biomedicine.
Rochester scientists receive NSF CAREER awards
The National Science Foundation has granted its most prestigious award in support of junior faculty, the Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award, to several University of Rochester researchers this year.
