Deep Learning Microscope
Prof. Bahram Jalali presented a keynote talk entitled "Deep Learning Microscope" at the The 7th International Multidisciplinary Conference on Optofluidics 2017 in Singapore. The talk described our group's success in detection of cancer cells in blood using the time...
Time stretch spectral shearing interferometry
Time stretch can be readily analysed by modelling the band-pass optical signals with low-pass complex envelopes. The transfer function of the dispersive element in the time-stretch system, H(ω), is mainly a phase propagator: in which ϕ(ω) is the phase profile of the...

Kam Yan Hon's paper
Kam Yan Hon’s paper titled “The Third-Order Nonlinear Optical Coefficients of Si, Ge, and Si(1-x)Ge(x) in the midwave and longwave infrared” has been selected to be on the cover of Journal of Applied Physics. Congratulations!
Using a combination of semiconductor theory and experimental results from the scientific literature, we have compiled and plotted the key third-order nonlinear optical coefficients of bulk crystalline Si and Ge as a function of wavelength (1.5-6.7 um for Si and 2.0-14.7 um for Ge).
