Research Interests

My research interests include lasers, optical interferometry and their applications on precision measurement, such as the measurements of displacements, vibrations, and surface profiles... etc. My research at Caltech will be to continue the development of the digital optical phase conjugation (DOPC) system; more specifically, combining lasers and the DOPC to perform flexible focusing inside the scattering medium.
