The Birth of Mode Locking

The work of Jalali-Lab in collaboration with U. Gottingen in Germany appeared on the cover of Nature Photonics, May 2016. The cover shows the birth of laser mode-locking captured for the first time. The feat was enabled by Photonic Time Stretch technology invented at...

Interactive Time-Stretch ADC and DFT Design Calculators Go Live

The Time Stretch Enhanced Recorder (TiSER) ADC takes a high speed analog electronic signal, slows it down by a photonic time-stretch preprocessor, and digitizes that with a relatively slow but high resolution electronic analog-to-digital converter. With this...

Powerful image detection algorithm source code released

The Phase Stretch Transform algorithm, as it is known, is a physics-inspired computational approach to processing images and information. The algorithm grew out of UCLA research on a technique called photonic time stretch, which has been used for ultrafast imaging and...

Big Data Photonics Workshop 2016

Big Data Photonics is an annual workshop that focus on the theme, “Trends Shaping the Future of Photonics”. The goal of the workshop is to bring industry and academia from the US, Denmark, and elsewhere together to showcase the newest trends and best...
