At Ginzton Lab, students actively participate in pioneering research, collaborating with each other and faculty from a wide variety of backgrounds. Work emphasizes both fundamental physical understanding and exploration of fascinating new devices. A student's involvement could vary from basic science to applications of novel technology. Within Ginzton, students use state-of-the-art facilities for materials processing and microfabrication; they also have access to the Center for Integrated systems (CIS) next-door. Research projects at Ginzton include:
- the development of UV and X-ray lasers
- new types of semiconductor lasers
- nonlinear optics for diode pumped all-solid-state lasers
- fiber optics and ultrafast electro-optics
- ultrasound
- picosecond and femtosecond light pulses
- basic quantum electronic phenomena
- squeezed states
- optical communication systems
- fiber optic gyroscopes
