Diffractive Optics based on metamaterials
A new technology for producing flat optical components based on optical metasurfaces. These components can potentially serve high resolution imaging, spectrometry, light processing and beam shaping devices. The optical metasurfaces that we develop are composed of closely spaced optical nanoantennas which can be deposited on a wide variety of rigid and flexible surfaces. The engineered nanoantennas […] Read More >

An Add-On Optical Interferometer Chamber to Phase Microscopes for Sub-Nanometer 3D and Dynamic Information
Technology An add-on optical module for microscopes allowing for single frame and dynamic capture of amplitude and phase profiles of transparent or semi-transparent biological and non-biological samples. This easyto-use interferometric device is simply positioned in the camera port of a conventional inverted microscope, enabling quantitative structural, thickness and refractive index measurements in a noncontact, label-free […] Read More >
METHODS AND KITS FOR DETERMINING PREDISPOSITION TO DEVELOP KIDNEY DISEASES
Many rare kidney disorders exhibit a monogenic, Mendelian pattern of inheritance. Population-based genetic studies have identified many genetic variants associated with an increased risk of developing common kidney diseases. Strongly associated variants have potential clinical uses as predictive markers and may advance our understanding of disease pathogenesis. These principles are elegantly illustrated by a region […] Read More >
Magnetic Devices based on Extraordinary Hall Effect
The Invention Magnetic based sensors and memory elements based on the Extraordinary Hall Effect (EHE). Non-volatile memories can be constructed by utilizing anisotropic thin films resulting in stable hysteresis which can represent binary states. Extremely sensitive sensors can be constructed which generate voltage as a function of magnetic disturbances. Potential Applications Memory devices complementing or […] Read More >
Improved Calcitonin-based Therapeutics
TechnologyThe aggregation site on human calcitonin has been identified, paving the way for development of specific inhibitors of calcitonin amyloid fibril formation. Such inhibitors will enable development of improved calcitonin therapeutics as well as greatly facilitate in vitro calcitonin manipulations. The NeedThe therapeutic use of human calcitonin is severely limited by its tendency to associate […] Read More >
High Speed Photonic Digital-To-Analog Conversion
A novel integrated optical modulator based on a multi-electrode Mach-Zehnder modulator has been developed at Tel-Aviv University. The device has superior performance in terms of linearity, dynamic range and implementation simplicity. These improvements are achieved by utilizing a unique mapping method between the analog input and the digital sequence applied to the device, and by […] Read More >
