Science July26 Quantum photonics promises scalable, secure tech, but current systems are bulky. Congrats Kerolos Yousef for engineering a metasurface that entangles photons using graph-designed metaatoms, paving the way for RT chip-scale quantum computing!

Most mind blowing science! The jellyfish that never dies

Who decides when Americans pay more for imports—the President or Congress? The Constitution couldn’t be clearer: only Congress has the power to tax and impose tariffs. Our Founders made sure no single person could declare new taxes by decree. NCLA is fighting to make sure the

An expert is a person who has made all the mistakes that can be made in a very narrow field. – Niels Bohr

What a great inspiring story of how a girl made an important contribution to science with a major discovery! The powerful drive of curiosity and passion kindled by a passionate dad!

Now I am spelling bee champ!

Here’s the paper on our 10 cm metalens with which we imaged the total solar eclipse yesterday. The image quality of the nebula, sun and moon exceeds that achieved with more complex telescope optics.

First image of solar eclipse with a metalens telescope! Taken by my student Arman Amirzhan at a site near Irasburg, Vermont (44°49'50.5"N 72°14'23.8"W) on 4/8/2024. The 10 cm glass metalens was fabricated by my postdoc Joon-Suh Park. Note the flare from the corona near hour 2.

Solitons on demand! We demonstrate solitons that are stable in a ring laser and form spontaneously with tuning laser bias, eliminating the need for an external optical pump. Congrats to a great international team!

When drawing water, the sprinkler alters its direction of rotation, leading to a more erratic and slower movement. This behavior is due to the specifics of how fluid moves through the sprinkler's structure. Fluid mechanics is a most complex science!

@PhysInHistory This is entirely true. Any neural system, any brain, is constantly seeking truth for survival and can find completely unique ways to discover new truths. No two people who can communicate with other people in natural language can escape the gift of their unique knowledge and

Exciting AI advance! NY Times quotes lead author Dr. Trinh: “We’re not making incremental improvement,” he said. “We’re making a big jump, a big breakthrough in terms of the result.” “Just don’t overhype it,” he said.

The Mid-infrared has lagged behind in Integrated Photonics: but here we demonstrate the integration of Mid-IR ring resonators and directional couplers, incorporating a quantum cascade active region in the waveguide core

A big leap in space for our metalenses! Congratulations to Joon-Suh Park for leading the charge! https://t.co/9rzVjEDP2S

The authors “advocate for the value of learning and surprise, and for an irreverence for boundaries of all kind — between disciplines, science and technology” This was the Bell Labs culture and became the guiding light for my own research!

New high tech method to crack a stubborn lobster! So proud of my experimental skills!

On chip photonic circuit with “15 gigahertz bandwidth of tunable frequencies with spectral resolution down to just 37 megahertz”

Carbon Nitride synthesized for the first time by compressing carbon and nitrogen between diamond points at 700,000 times atmospheric pressure and heating to 3000°C with lasers!

Remarkable! “waveguide-coupled high-Q silicon photonic cavities that confine telecom photons to 2 nm air gaps with an aspect ratio of 100, corresponding to mode volumes more than 100 times below the diffraction limit”
