Engineers at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering introduced a framework for universal point spread function (PSF) engineering, enabling the synthesis of arbitrary spatially varying 3D PSFs using ...

With the exponential growth in demand for high-speed data transmission, the 5G system infrastructure, despite its impressive peak data rate of 10 gigabits per second, is increasingly inadequate for ...

Diffractive optical processors, built using linear materials, perform computational tasks through the manipulation of light using structured surfaces. Nonlinear encoding of optical information can ...

A new technical paper titled “Massively parallel and universal approximation of nonlinear functions using diffractive processors” was published by researchers at UCLA. “Nonlinear computation is ...

State-of-the-art neural networks depend on linear operations, such as matrix-vector multiplications and convolutions. While dedicated processors like GPUs and TPUs exist for these operations, they ...

In a recent article published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers demonstrated a large-aperture, broadband meta-optic capable of high-quality visible imaging, overcoming traditional ...
