Finding opens new potential to mass produce structural colors

The augmented material could lead to the development of fully integrated silicon photonics

Engineers at Caltech have created the visual analogue of noise-canceling headphones—a camera system that can obtain images of objects obscured by murky media, such as fog or clouds, by canceling out the glare

Researchers aim to make such cloaks more practical

Microwaves created at near absolute zero temperature provide uniquely correlated and controllable states

Images reveal battery materials' chemical reactions in 5 dimensions—3-D space plus time and energy

The scientists suggested analyzing the structure of photonic crystals using optical diffraction method, that is, by looking at the light pattern generated while the sample is exposed to a laser beam

New technology platform increases spectroscopic resolution by 4 fold

Research team from TU-Wien Center for Micro- and Nanostructures have developed a new 'cooler' sensing instrument thereby increasing energy-efficiency and enhancing mobility for diagnostic testing

Scientists are working on improving the sensitivity, compactness and cost of surface plasmon resonance devices by changing the materials used to make them.
