CAREER: Advancing intelligent circular spectropolarimeter with chiral perovskite heterostr — NSF Award to Yale University (CT, $57

Nontechnical description: Light carries far more information than brightness alone. Its color and polarization contain valuable signals used in secure communication, imaging, and sensing technologies. However, systems capable of analyzing richer optical information—such as identifying circular polarization and spectrum

AbstractNontechnical description: Light carries far more information than brightness alone. Its color and polarization contain valuable signals used in secure communication, imaging, and sensing technologies. However, systems capable of analyzing richer optical information—such as identifying circular polarization and spectrum simultaneously—are typically bulky, slow, and incompatible with modern microelectronics. Developing compact devices that directly decode complex optical signals is therefore an im
