Recyclers must swiftly adapt to prepare for the significant surge in LED lighting products as the global shift toward energy-efficient LED lighting is projected to grow at a compound annual rate of 11 ...

Smartphones, laptops, and lighting applications rely on light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to shine bright. But the brighter these LED technologies shine, the more inefficient they become, releasing more ...

Could there be a new kind of light in the universe? Since the late 19th century, scientists have understood that, when heated, all materials emit light in a predictable spectrum of wavelengths.

When light is emitted from a particle that contains a few hundred atoms, the wavelength of the light is affected by the size of the region – this is a very interesting quantum effect that provides a ...

Guitarist Jimmy Page says he turned down a lot of “pretty miserable” pitches over the years to make a documentary about Led Zeppelin. But he finally bit when he received a deeply-researched proposal ...

Researchers report a new bilayer material, with each layer measuring less than one nanometer in thickness, that someday could lead to more efficient and versatile light emission. A cover story ...
