Designing a Hadamard gate on an integrated Silicon photonic chip

Jonathan Musgrave Advisor: Dr. Jake Bromage Optical Parametric Chirp Pulse Amplification (OPCPA) is an intensely researched topic and has gained a lot of traction in the past 25 years for…

Investigating indistinguishable single-photon sources in the visible range.

Exploring mechanical solutions to reduce the effects of turbulence on the Zygo Verifire™ interferometer

The solar steam turbine is a design that uses a femtosecond laser-processed superwicking metal sheet to generate electricity via steam generation. Team Thermo wishes to thank the following for their…

The Virtual Optics Suitcase makes engaging optics demonstrations accessible, encouraging careers in STEM.

An indoor lighting system designed to simulate the sun.

The Hybrid Endoscope/Microscope project is a senior design project that aims to design and build a system that combines the endoscope’s view and the microscope’s view during ENT surgery.

Development of a telehealth platform that provides digital optical prescriptions, making high quality vision accessible to everyone.

A 360° tessellated, parallax-reduced, cinema camera system.

The Nanostructure AR coating project aims to Investigate and model nanostructure AR coatings on OptiLayer and OptiRE software.

Hyperion is a 3D visualization platform for optical design. It provides a fully immersive, and interactive 3D user experience. It enables the visualization of models of folded freeform optical systems. The frontend user experience is supported by the computational ray-tracing engine of Eikonal+, an optical design research software. We have built a cross-platform light-weight version of Eikonal+ that can communicate with any user interface. We have also demonstrated a prototype of the 3D user experience using a Hololens AR display.
