It was transformational, and a major win for artists and filmmakers.

For the first time, researchers have seen how light behaves during a mysterious phenomenon called 'imaginary time'. When you shine light through almost any transparent material, the gridlock of ...

From hospital wards to daily life, light is emerging as a silent regulator of mental health-affecting mood, sleep cycles, and ...

Scientists at Harvard have built a miniature device that can twist and tune light in real time. By rotating two stacked ...

A team of researchers at the Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering has created a new breakthrough in photonics: the design of the first optical device that follows the emerging ...

A new liquid crystal device lets scientists control how light twists and behaves using voltage, making it possible to reshape light patterns without changing the physical structure of the device.

Understanding how light travels through various materials is essential for many fields, from medical imaging to manufacturing. However, due to their structure, materials often show directional ...

The European Research Council (ERC) will fund Prof. Anupam Sengupta’s research into how bacteria interact with and control light, and possible opportunities for new imaging technologies. The grant of ...
