Imagine shining a flashlight into a material and watching the light bend backward—or in an entirely unexpected direction—as ...

Applied physicists in the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have demonstrated a new way to structure light in custom, repeatable, three-dimensional patterns, ...

KAIST researchers tested optical frequency comb lasers as reference signals for radio astronomy, aiming to synchronize radio telescopes with light-based timing in VLBI observations.

Scientists have developed an AI system that can rapidly predict complex defect patterns in liquid crystals, cutting simulation times from hours to milliseconds. The approach could transform how ...

The ESIS-II mission aims to capture high-speed “snapshot” images of the Sun’s transition region and corona. To achieve this, ...

PI (Physik Instrumente) announced a new technology platform for electro-optical wafer-level testing designed to validate ...

Optical telescopes are essential tools in astronomy, built to collect and focus light from distant celestial objects. By capturing and concentrating photons onto a detector, these instruments allow ...

“Then I heard the enormous, infinite scream of nature.” — Edvard Munch Stress, anxiety, and burnout are silent epidemics—especially for creative, ambitious people. We work harder and try to control ...
