Waveguiding Method Builds Path to Guide Light Through Scattering Materials

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
GLASGOW, Scotland, Nov. 13, 2024 — A new approach to guiding and controlling light, based on the process of diffusion, can enhance light transmission by orders of magnitude, even along curved trajectories. The diffusion waveguiding approach could be used in future medical imaging technologies. It could also be adapted to guide heat, instead of light, and to confine particles like neutrons, instead of light waves. Developed by researchers at the University of Glasgow, in collaboration with the University of Arizona, the new waveguiding mechanism shows that photon density can propagate as a guided mode along a core...Read full article
