Research

Our objective is to fuse biomedicine and optics by using novel optical tools to tackle diagnostic and measurement problems in biomedicine.

Optical methods are well known for their high resolution (micrometer), and high sensitivity (~ nanometer or less). Taking advantage of the coherence nature of light and a wide range of light-matter interactions including fluorescence, Raman, and non-linear light generation, optical systems provide various non-invasive, non-destructive tools for biomedical research and clinical applications.

The major effort of this laboratory can be roughly divided into the following categories:

Optofluidic Microscopy (OFM)

Wide Field of View Microscopy (WFOV)

Turbidity Suppression by Optical Phase Conjugation (TSOPC)

Coherence Domain Probing System
