CREOL Fall Colloquium Series: Zetian Mi - Ultrawide Bandgap III-Nitride Semiconductors: From Deep UV Optoelectronics to Quantum Photonics
Abstract: Ultrawide bandgap III-nitride semiconductors, e.g., aluminum nitride (AlN) and their alloys with gallium (Ga), boron (B), and scandium (Sc), have emerged as one of the most promising material platforms for a broad range of applications, including deep ultraviolet (UV)…
CREOL Fall Colloquium Series: Bernhard R. Brandl - Optical design challenges of the Mid-IR Imager and Spectrograph (METIS) for the Extremely Large Telescope
Abstract: The Mid-IR Imager and Spectrograph (METIS) will be one of only three science instruments on the European Southern Observatory’s Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). It covers the wavelength range from 3 – 13 microns and offers several observing modes, including…
CREOL Fall Colloquium Series: Li Fang - Ultrafast X-ray and XUV spectroscopy of charge dynamics in molecular systems
Abstract:  Thanks to recent advances in laser and light source technology, the scientific investigation of fundamental aspects of photointeractions with the basic elements composing materials is now possible in both the short and long wavelength regime. I will present prior…
CREOL Fall Colloquium Series: Loic Alain Royer - High-Resolution, Large Field-of-View, and Multi-View Single Objective Light-Sheet Microscopy
Abstract: Light-sheet microscopy has become the preferred method for long-term imaging of large living samples because of its low photo-invasiveness and good optical sectioning capabilities. Unfortunately, refraction and scattering often pose obstacles to light-sheet propagation and limit imaging depth. This…
