SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics

Margaret Murnane, physics professor at the University of Colorado Boulder & JILA Fellow, will be the guest speaker for tomorrow's Henri Poincare webinar. Her topic is structured high harmonic light sources for advanced materials metrologies. Registration is free. Sign-up here: https://lnkd.in/gNGm5Rmu

"Compared to a small electronic processor of similar complexity, Zalevsky and Cohen’s photonic processor could perform the same computation orders-of-magnitude faster using orders-of-magnitude lower power." Happy #PhoFoFriday, everyone!
