Diffusion as a confinement mechanism, can guide light around bends and with 10-100x higher transmission through completely opaque materials. Works also for heat and neutrons! Great work with @kevin_images, @GU_ExtremeLight, @UofGPhysAstro nature.com/articles/s41567-0…

Brain-computer-interfaces for neuromorphic computing. Multiplexing 100s of frequencies, a simple LED and a single-electrode EEG at the visual cortex can perform classification tasks. Concatenating brains (multilayer network) shows improved performance. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

In 1971 Zel’dovich proposed that a rotating metallic or absorbing cylinder will amplify light with angular momentum if the cylinder rotates faster than the light oscillation frequency. That condition made it impossible to see…until today rdcu.be/dL5K7

Better than Photoshop - a framework for image up-sampling that embeds new (but true) information by fusing “single sample” data from two different image modalities. Here demonstrated for megapixel fluorescence lifetime imaging science.org/doi/full/10.1126…

Single-sample image-fusion upsampling of fluorescence lifetime images

A computational approach to microscopy enables upsampling fluorescence lifetime images by factors as high as 16 × 16.

Fantastic to see groundbreaking research on laser heartbeat monitoring led by @d_faccio of @UofGPhysAstro, @QuantIC_QTHub and @UofGARC showcased in this weekend’s @ObserverUK! Read the full story ⬇️ theguardian.com/society/2023…

AI laser that reads heartbeat through the throat could replace stethoscopes

New invention, which can be set up at home, promises to transform the way we monitor our health, say scientists

New work showing how to use photon bunching for microscopy. Took a long time to iron out some of the quirky details. 20 years since the seminal paper by Hong, Ou, Mandel and still by far, my favourite quantum effect! @a_lyons2⁩ ⁦@HugoDefienne⁩ nature.com/articles/s41566-0…
