The extraordinary optical transmission through periodic arrays of subwavelength holes has been studied extensively since it was first reported in 1998, owing to both its fundamental implications ...

A set of breakthroughs from scientists at the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) is ...

A remarkable array of microlenses formed from calcite has been found on a species of brittlestar. These lenses appear to be responsible for the brittlestar's sensitivity to light.

The new chip integrates quantum light sources and electronic controllers using a standard 45-nanometer semiconductor process. This approach paves the way for scaling up quantum systems ...

A new technique from the University of Strathclyde allows ultra-small photonic devices to be measured, sorted, and assembled ...
