When optical materials (molecules or solid-state semiconductors) are embedded in tiny photonic boxes, known as optical ...

OCT uses low-coherence interferometry, in which light reflected from internal microstructures is compared to a reference arm.

demonstrate the importance of wavefront coherence and optical alignment precision. Time-division techniques are another focal point, where rapid switching of holograms, combined with optical filtering ...

For the first time, astronomers have directly measured a solar-system-sized corona around a distant supermassive black hole, ...

With their tunable properties, nanoparticles can form extremely complicated structures like superlattices and supercrystals when organized precisely. These assembled structures often display unique ...

Scientists have developed a faster method for measuring the elasticity of airway walls, a property that can reveal important information about respiratory health. The technique, reported in the ...

KD, Leopard Imaging, and Corning collaborate on an IEEE 802.3cz–compliant multi-gigabit optical camera for automotive applications. “The goal was to reuse and adapt high-volume data-center-grade ...
