NEW ANTENNA TECH TO EQUIP CERAMIC COATINGS WITH HEAT RADIATION CONTROL

The gas turbines powering aircraft engines rely on ceramic coatings that ensure structural stability at high temperatures. But these coatings don’t control heat radiation, limiting the performance of the engine. Researchers at Purdue University have engineered ceramic “nanotubes” that behave as...

Single Photon Driven Quantum Phase Transition

The temporal dynamics of large quantum systems perturbed weakly by a single excitation can give rise to unique phenomena at the quantum phase boundaries. Here, we develop a time-dependent model to study the temporal dynamics of a single photon interacting with a defect within a large system of...

Latest paper in Nature

Our recent work on 'Heat-assisted detection and ranging' has been published in Nature. We discuss how Machine perception uses advanced sensors to collect information about the surrounding scene for situational awareness . State-of-the-art machine perception using active sonar, radar and LiDAR to...

TeX Vision

The resolution of optical imaging is limited by diffraction as well as detector noise. However, thermal imaging exhibits an additional unique phenomenon of ghosting which results in blurry and low-texture images. Here, we provide a detailed view of thermal physics-driven texture and explain why it...

Thermal Voyager

Achieving reliable autonomous navigation during nighttime remains a substantial obstacle in the field of robotics. Although systems utilizing Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) and Radio Detection and Ranging (RADAR) enables environmental perception regardless of lighting conditions, they face...

Shoaib Mahmud and Daien He awarded the Bilsland Dissertation Fellowship

Our group members, Shoaib Mahmud and Daien He, have been awarded the Bilsland Dissertation Fellowship by Purdue Graduate School. The fellowship is awarded by departments and colleges to PhD students who will enter their final year of their program in 2024. Recipients are expected to devote full-time...

Xueji Wang and Ziyi Yang's recent paper featured among top downloads in Optica

Congratulations to Dr. Xueji Wang and Ziyi Yang for the feature of their recent paper on thermal imaging among the top downloads in Optica for the month of January. In this paper titled "Spinning metasurface stack for spectro-polarimetric thermal imaging", we introduce an approach for spectro...
