A team of scientists has uncovered a crystal that can be reshaped and programmed using ordinary light, opening a new path for ...

A light-sensitive crystal is opening the door to a new era of “light-written” technology. Arsenic trisulfide can be reshaped ...

A team of researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has introduced a novel framework for monitoring structural vibrations using diffractive optical processors. This new ...

The patterns of light hold tremendous promise for a large encoding alphabet in optical communications, but progress is hindered by their susceptibility to distortion, such as in atmospheric turbulence ...

Researchers from the University of Southampton (UK), and the Institut d'Optique in Bordeaux (France) have devised a new approach for controlling light in a silicon chip by bringing the concept of ...

An optical illusion is a visual phenomenon where our perception of thinking about an image differs from objective reality. This image is seen as a Radiating Wavy Pattern Optical Illusion that appears ...

Bespoke manipulation of light by Steve Johnson's group could find uses in cellphone lenses, smart-car sensors, optical fibers. Mathematicians at MIT, Cambridge, Ma, have developed a new computational ...
