PhD student Jonathan Musgrave earned a 2023 National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate Fellowship for his promising research in laser physics and nonlinear photonics.

PhD student's study, published in the journal Applied Physics Letters, sheds light on the impact of low-frequency mechanical vibrations on electrowetting-based devices and promotes their application in diverse fields.

PhD student Thariq Shanavas shares more on the project and his experiences as an interdisciplinary graduate student.

Research into quantum engineering may provide a number of significant advancements in sensor technology, but optical loss and signal noise have – until recently – held these applications back.

A state-of-the-art instrument coming soon to CU Boulder will improve research around quantum engineering and may eventually prove to be a game-changer for interdisciplinary materials and device research in the Rocky Mountain region.

In CU Boulder's COSINC lab, researchers like Won Park use state-of-the art tools to design incredibly small electronic devices—some features measuring just 10 nanometers in size, or less than a millionth of an inch.

Shu-Wei Huang and his team are working on a compromise in order to find new applications for a powerful new technology.

Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder and Anschutz Medical Campus are exploring several imaging techniques aimed at creating lightweight miniature microscopes.

In the journal Biomedical Optics Express, CU researchers describe their new SIMscope3D, a miniature microscope designed for high-resolution 3D images.

Starting in fall 2022, the GAANN program will provide fellowships for seven students to pursue PhD degrees in electrical, computer & energy engineering and chemical & biological engineering.
