Sunbeams contain a lot of energy. But current technology for harvesting solar power doesn't capture as much as it could. Now, in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, researchers report that gold ...
For decades, laser engineers have wrestled with an embarrassing blind spot: the green-through-yellow slice of the visible ...
The Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) has developed the first single lens that can focus the entire visible spectrum of light — including white light — in the same spot and in ...
WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed the first fiber laser that can produce femtosecond pulses in the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum. Fiber lasers producing ultrashort, bright ...
Integrated photonics is a rapidly-evolving industry sector, with infrared spectrum applications including high-speed 5G networks, biosensors on chip, and driverless cars. Researchers are now exploring ...
Researchers at the Dalian University of Technology and the University of Hong Kong have developed a novel method for creating dynamically reconfigurable color displays using Tamm plasmonic photonic ...
How can we measure visible light? The electromagnetic spectrum includes all forms of light energy, known as electromagnetic radiation. (1) Different types of electromagnetic radiation such as radio ...
