AFOSR MC Ledlie Prize Awarded for Research Expected to Improve Fiber Optics and Computing

An internationally celebrated physicist and AFOSR-, National Science Foundation-, NASA-funded researcher has overseen work leading to the first successful manipulation of coherent optical information. Dr. Lene Hau, Mallinckrodt professor of physics and applied physics at Harvard University, has discovered applications through her work with light and matter that will impact the Air Force by providing significant advances in computing, optical networks, and quantum cryptography.

Wolf

Renowned physical optics author and AFOSR-supported researcher, Dr. Emil Wolf, received the 2008 Joseph W. Goodman Award for his book, “Introduction to the Theory of Coherence and Polarization of Light,” which set a precedent by providing a unified treatment of coherence and polarization.
