Ultra-compact synthesis of space-time wave packets

Murat Yessenov, Oussama Mhibik, Lam Mach +5

Space-time wave packets (STWPs) are pulsed fields in which a strictly prescribed association between the spatial and temporal frequencies yields surprising and useful behavior. How…

Circumventing size-bandwidth limits in imaging with flat lenses

Apratim Majumder, Monjurul Meem, Nicole Brimhall +1

Recent theoretical work suggested upper bounds on the operating bandwidths of flat lenses. Here, we show how these bounds can be circumvented via a multi-level diffractive lens (MD…

Monolithic all-Silicon Flat lens for broadband LWIR Imaging

Orrin Kigner, Monjurul Meem, Brian Baker +4

We designed, fabricated and characterized a flat multi-level diffractive lens (MDL) comprised of only silicon with diameter = 15.2mm, focal length of 19mm, and operating over the l…

Machine Learning enables Ultra-Compact Integrated Photonics through Silicon-Nanopattern Digital Metamaterials

Sourangsu Banerji, Apratim Majumder, Alex Hamrick +2

In this work, we demonstrate three ultra-compact integrated-photonics devices, which are designed via a machine-learning algorithm coupled with finite-difference time-domain (FDTD)…

A needle-based deep-neural-network camera

Ruipeng Guo, Soren Nelson, Rajesh Menon

We experimentally demonstrate a camera whose primary optic is a cannula (diameter=0.22mm and length=12.5mm) that acts a lightpipe transporting light intensity from an object plane…

Classification of optics-free images with deep neural networks

Soren Nelson, Rajesh Menon

The thinnest possible camera is achieved by removing all optics, leaving only the image sensor. We train deep neural networks to perform multi-class detection and binary classifica…
