Polarized light is one of the most powerful tools scientists have for peering inside matter, yet the way it twists, scatters ...

Scientists at the University of Oxford demonstrate an approach to interpreting how materials interact with polarized light, ...

A longstanding goal in physics has been to link general relativity with quantum theory and so unify the forces of nature. Theories of quantum gravity, however, are plagued by the weak theoretical ...

An Oxford researcher has found that transparent conducting electrodes can reduce perovskite–silicon tandem solar cell ...

Newly developed Bayesian inference framework (BIF) efficiently models and controls the optical power evolutions in fiber-optic communication systems. Leveraging Bayesian theory, the BIF selects the ...

This paper describes an innovative methodology to investigate the relationship between device morphology and the optical performance of CMOS image sensors. By coupling a FDTD-based 3D Maxwell solver ...

Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy offers inline solutions for chemical bonding, epi thickness, and trench depth measurements. Through optical modeling of the transmission or reflectance spectra, ...

The primary goal of this course is to provide the tools and experience needed to design optical and opto-electronic systems. At the end of the course, students will be able to take system requirements ...

Astronomy has always relied on optical instruments, from the early Galilean telescope to fiber-fed spectrographs, so much so that astronomy and modern optics are called astrophotonics. Since ...
