New article about advance photonic control of programmable pixelated lasers is out

A new study in Advanced Optical Materials shows a way to build lasers that can be “programmed” to produce different colors in different tiny areas (pixels).

Sudharsana Bhashyam Pillailokam and Alex Berdin created a material surface where each small spot can emit its own laser color, and many of these spots can work together at once. This is done by carefully shaping microscopic patterns using advanced light-based techniques.

This makes it possible to design custom light sources with precise and flexible color control, which could be useful for future optical technologies and devices. Read the full article here.

Warm congratulations to Sudharsana on his first first-author research article!
