Researchers from Bengaluru have made a breakthrough that could reshape the future of photonics by demonstrating, for the first time, that the way a metal interacts with light can be actively ...

Li with this device that where gravity bends light.University of Wollongong Enbang Li, a senior lecturer at the University of Wollongong’s School of Physics, has developed a simple yet effective ...

S. Justin Thomas, Ph.D., associate professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurobiology, specializes in behavioral sleep medicine and says the relationship between red light and ...

Researchers at the University of Sydney have built a nanophotonic chip prototype that performs artificial intelligence calculations using light instead of electricity. The experimental device ...

A rendering of the metasurface chip in action. When hit with an infrared laser, the microscopic chip converts the incoming light to a higher frequency and sends it out as a narrow beam that can be ...

NYU researchers have found a way to use light to control how microscopic particles assemble into crystals, effectively turning illumination into a tool for shaping matter. By adding light-sensitive ...

A new optical device allows researchers to generate and switch between two stable, donut-shaped light patterns called skyrmions. These light vortices hold their shape even when disturbed, making them ...

Imagine shining a flashlight into a material and watching the light bend backward—or in an entirely unexpected direction—as if defying the law of physics. This phenomenon, known as negative refraction ...
