Physics

Our research focuses on the development of novel optical sensors and optical spectroscopy approaches. I will describe several examples, including our work on using spatial light modulation in combination with digital optical phase conjugation to focus light inside a scattering material.

The Department of Physics and Astronomy invites all to a colloquium featuring Dr. Ian Coddington, National Institute of Standards and technology. Dr. Coddington will present their talk, “Frequency Combs and Precision Measurement in the Real World.”

Meet for refreshments before the lecture at 3:45 – 4:10 p.m. in the foyer…
