  1. Surprising Nanophotonic Phenomena in Nature

    11 Jul 2016 | | Contributor(s):: Peter Bermel

    A broad range of optical phenomena in nature have created long-standing mysteries. For example, what gives butterflies and birds their rich colors? And how can sightings of some unusual natural phenomena like mirages or ball lightning be explained? The process of solving these mysteries has...

  2. Computational Nanophotonics – Designing Spaces for Light

    29 Jun 2016 | | Contributor(s):: Alexander V. Kildishev

    In this presentation, after a brief review of previous work based on the innovative methods of transformation optics, I present a new class of elliptic omnidirectional concentrators focusing light on a disk, a thin strip, or a rod. This study expands the theory of a circular omnidirectional...

  3. [Illinois] Rational Design of MegaDalton-Scale DNA-Based Light Harvesting Antennas

    17 Dec 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Mark Bathe

    Programmed self-assembly of DNA using scaffolded DNA origami offers the unique opportunity to engineer complex structural assemblies at the MegaDalton-scale with sub-nanometer precision. Due to their sequence specificity, these nucleic acid assemblies also serve as programmable structural...

  9. [Illinois] Beckman Director's Seminar - Quantitative Phase Imaging

    26 Nov 2012 | | Contributor(s):: Gabriel Popescu

    "Ever since the invention of the microscope in the 17th century, it has been observed that live cells are transparent under visible illumination, i.e. they do not absorb (or scatter) light significantly. Thus, a magnified image of cells will generally exhibit low contrast. In order to overcome...
