Volumetric 3D printing can create full objects in seconds, but wasted light has held it back. An EPFL team now redirects laser energy far more efficiently, producing larger, cleaner, cell-filled ...
Researchers in Germany have unveiled the Metafiber, a breakthrough device that allows ultra-precise, rapid, and compact control of light focus directly within an optical fiber. Unlike traditional ...
Scientists at the University of East Anglia have uncovered a hidden property of light that allows it to twist, spin and behave differently—without mirrors, materials or special lenses. In a ...
Researchers have built a new platform that produces ultrashort UV-C laser pulses and detects them at room temperature using atom-thin materials. The light flashes last just femtoseconds and can be ...
Light Publishing Center, Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics And Physics, CAS Silicon photonics (SiPh) is an established platform for realizing complex and powerful PICs. Leveraging the high ...
Light does not usually surprise people. It travels, it reflects, it bends. In labs, researchers can twist it into more exotic forms, but that has often required special surfaces, unusual materials, or ...
Engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed an optical device that reveals hidden images and changes ...
Stanford researchers have combined two microscopy techniques to create a one-of-a-kind instrument that can show cell structures interacting in real time at an unprecedented 120-nanometer ...
