Communication and Network Group

Set in a heterogeneous network backdrop, our research projects cover a wide range of research fields in communication and networks, spanning from fiber, to wireless, to free space optical systems, into a connected heterogeneous network. Design and analyze future...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Group

The RLE Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Group conducts investigations in medical imaging with MRI technology, focusing on optimal methods for acquisition, reconstruction and processing of in vivo imaging data. The group’s interests include techniques for efficient...

Nanostructures and Computation Group

The RLE Nanostructures and Computation Group pursues investigations in two primary areas. The first is work on photonic crystals and electromagnetism in structured media. This is work is conducted in close collaboration with the RLE ab initio Physics Group. The second...

Integrated Systems Group

The RLE Integrated Systems Group conducts investigations in noise and dynamics of integrated circuits and systems, CMOS based electrical and optical interfaces for high-speed links, implementation of digital communication techniques to constrained systems such as...

Atomic Quantum Gases Group

Quantum mechanics tells us how to predict the behavior of the microscopic world. For a single particle, the Schrödinger equation can be simulated on a computer. However, if we’re interested in a quantum system of many interacting particles, the difficulty of the...

Fibers@mit.edu

Fibers are among the earliest forms of human expression, yet surprisingly have remained unchanged from ancient to modern times. Can fibers become highly functional devices ? Can they see, hear, sense, and communicate? Our research focuses on extending the frontiers of...
