- Researchers explored a fluid-based optical device known as an electrowetting prism to steer lasers at high speeds for advanced imaging applications. This new frontier in miniature lasers opens the door to new technologies in microscopy, LiDAR, optical communications and even brain imaging.
- Researchers have created an open-source design system software package that uses functions and code to map not just shapes, but where different materials belong in a 3D object. The project, called OpenVCAD, has the potential to transform 3D printing by enabling engineers to design multi-material objects smarter and more efficiently.
- Evan Sharafuddin, a first-year electrical engineering PhD student, has been selected as the recipient of the Dwight E. and Jessica D. Ryland Graduate Fellowship for the 2025-26 academic year who is pursuing wind turbine control research.
- Researchers from the Electrical, Computer & Energy Engineering Department will compete for ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú´«Ã½ÎÄ»¯×÷Æ·'s 2025 Lab Venture Challenge. LVC supports projects that address a commercial need, have a clear path to a compelling market and have strong scientific support.
- Award-winning physicist Matt Eichenfield has been named the inaugural Karl Gustafson Endowed Chair of Quantum Engineering in the Department of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering at ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú´«Ã½ÎÄ»¯×÷Æ·.
- Researchers from ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú´«Ã½ÎÄ»¯×÷Æ· are tackling one of the biggest challenges in quantum today: after years of scientific advancement, can we take quantum technology out of the lab and into the real and unforgiving world?
- Luca Corradini, associate professor in the Department of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering, is advancing energy technologies at ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú´«Ã½ÎÄ»¯×÷Æ· thanks to a $1.5 million award from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy.
- ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú´«Ã½ÎÄ»¯×÷Æ· postdoc Catherine Saladrigas is helping bring high-resolution imaging into miniature microscopes for neuroscience research.
- Researchers at ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú´«Ã½ÎÄ»¯×÷Æ· have developed a new bioimaging device that can operate with significantly lower power and in an entirely non-mechanical way. It could one day improve detecting eye and even heart conditions.
- The Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering Department at the University of Colorado Boulder is welcoming four new faculty members. Meet our new faculty and see why we're excited about these talented individuals!
