Physicists at ETH Zurich have developed a lens that can transform infrared light into visible light by halving the wavelength ...

It’s sometimes easy to forget that the light in the sky is an actual star. With how reliable it is and how busy we tend to be ...

By carefully placing nanostructures on a flat surface, researchers have significantly improved the performance of so-called optical metasurfaces in conductive plastics. This is a major step for ...

The remote-imaging system (left) shoots eight infrared laser beams (red line added to show the path) at a target (right) in a ...

Bethel University has been a leader in Christian higher education since 1871. Come see why we're one of the most ...

The speed of light is one of the most fundamental constants in physics and an enduring source of fascination for scientists ...

The team, led by Andreas Tittl, Professor of Experimental Physics at LMU, have developed a method that permits the manufacture of extremely thin optical components that react strongly to even ...

An optical breakthrough in plastic metalenses designed to offer ultrafine control of light could enable realistic holograms ...

MIT physicists froze a mirror using lasers in a daring bid to catch gravity behaving like a quantum force — and it just might ...

Researchers demonstrated a way to to manipulate electrons using pulses of light that last less than a trillionth of a second to record electrons bypassing a physical barrier almost instantaneously -- ...

Scientists develop new optical system that removes blur over fine-structure in the Sun's corona, revealing clearest images to ...
