Scientists have managed to trap beams of infrared light in a lattice of specially engineered atoms that's just 42 nanometers ...

Researchers present a novel ion-trap chip integrating photonics for efficient fluorescence photon collection, enhancing ...

Meredith Marks has still yet to disengage completely from her and Heather Gay's drama on The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. As seen on Season 6, Episode 13, tensions related to Meredith's behavior ...

IIIF provides researchers rich metadata and media viewing options for comparison of works across cultural heritage collections. Visit the IIIF page to learn more. This echelon diffraction grating came ...

Optical dispersion occurs when the refractive index of a material changes with the wavelength of incoming light. This variation causes different colors to move at different speeds in transparent media ...

Imagine a pair of augmented reality glasses that can filter out visual “noise,” letting only the light you want reach your eyes, not just by color, but by direction. This kind of precision light ...

Abstract: Cantilever-type sensors play a critical role in precision measurement across various fields. Among the available detection principles, the optical lever method detects minute cantilever ...

Inprentus continues to serve critical global customers on 5 continents. Inprentus was founded in 2012 by University of Illinois Physics Professor Peter Abbamonte to commercialize a novel method for ...

For the first time, researchers transformed light into a quantum crystalline structure to create a "supersolid" that's both solid and liquid at the same time. Here’s what that means, and why it's such ...

🔬Choosing the right diffraction grating can be tough, because there are so many options based on type, material, and configuration. But we did the homework, looking into efficiency, resolution, and ...
