Researchers have found that under certain conditions, a laser beam can act like an opaque object and cast a shadow, opening new possibilities for technologies that could use a laser beam to control ...

A laser jammer is a device that will make your car invisible to police LiDAR enforcement. Before buying one, here’s what you need to know. You’re driving down the road, minding your own business, and ...

When we first heard the term “random laser,” we did a double-take. After all, most ordinary sources of light are random. One defining characteristic of a traditional laser is that it emits coherent ...

Scientists at MIT discovered that chaotic laser light can spontaneously form a highly focused beam instead of scattering—if the conditions are just right. This “pencil beam” enabled them to image the ...

Chinese scientists claim they've tested a visible-light, laser-based ceramic engine that could enable AI-based intelligent 6G ...

An international team of physicists has achieved a significant advance in laser science, demonstrating for the first time a practical route to dramatically boosting the intensity of high-power laser ...

In the experiment, a high-power green laser passed through a ruby cube, illuminated from the side by a blue laser. The green laser increased the ruby’s absorption of the blue light, creating a darker ...

Anthony Fiorito, a senior engineering physics major at Florida Polytechnic University, was published as first author of a study that found that when infused with a specific dye, peacock feathers can ...

Can light itself cast a shadow? It may sound like a philosophical riddle, but researchers have found that under certain conditions, a laser beam can act like an opaque object and cast a shadow. The ...
