Researchers are working on tiny detectors that could record many characteristics of light, including color, polarity and, now, angle of light

Covert sensing of objects around a corner may soon become a reality.

The controllable shape-shifting material could have broad applications for manufacturing, robotics, biomedical devices, and artificial muscles

Hiding from infrared detectors could become much easier, thanks to a new cloaking material that renders objects—and people—practically invisible

Artificial lighting at night could be a reason for declining insect populations

Achievement will pave the way to ultra-small optical switches, detectors, and sensors

Technion researchers have developed a technology that enables drugs to be delivered and released only to the diseased tissue which the drug is targeting

Newly observed optical state could enable quantum computing with photons

In a recent rat study, rodents exposed to dim light lost about 30 percent of capacity in the hippocampus and performed poorly on a spatial task they had trained on previously

By the year 2050, current greenhouse capabilities will likely be unable to keep up with worldwide human consumption, making an increase in productivity an urgent mandate
