Luminous-Intensity Standard Set for Traffic Lights

Tens of millions of people around the world suffer from corneal diseases, with only a small fraction eligible for corneal transplantation. In a recent study, researchers at the University of Ottawa...

In cell biology and medical imaging, the targeted manipulation of cells under controlled conditions is a major challenge in understanding processes and causal relationships. Researchers are dependent...

Imaging through a light-scattering medium, such as clouds in the sky or tissues in the body, poses special challenges. The scattered light must be reconstructed, typically by using complex optical...

An international team of researchers led by the Friedrich Schiller University Jena has proposed a method to generate entangled photon pairs using 2D materials. The advance could open the door to...

In general, there are three common approaches to reducing mechanical excitation of photonic systems. The first is identifying the sources of vibration and implementing ways to eliminate or reduce...

Technology Transfer Programs are often a concerted effort to share skills, knowledge, technologies, methods of manufacturing, samples of manufacturing, and facilities among governments or...

Members of the Capasso Group at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have successfully encoded multiple holographic images in a metasurface. The separate...

In this month's Light Matters Extra, we take you to the grand opening of the Price Chopper Market 32 Capital Holiday Lights in the Park in downtown Albany, New York. We'll introduce you to the...

Researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences have developed a single flat lens that can focus the entire visible spectrum of light in the same spot and in...
