Biologists are very interested in how proteins, lipids and other compounds are organized and interact in systems. Very few ...

Scientists build a "metagrating" filter that selects light by both wavelength and angle—unlocking next-gen AR, sensors, and ...

As we celebrate the International Year of Quantum 2025, the frontier of light-matter interaction is undergoing a revolution. These advances are poised to transform technology, from medical imaging to ...

The light of someone's life might not be just another person, but light in the literal sense. According to a recent study by researchers from University of Calgary, every living system emits light ...

Explore the interplay of light and shadow in architecture, enhancing perception, atmosphere, and emotional responses.

The result is light that can create well-defined interference and diffraction patterns. 2 Key Characteristics of Coherent Light Spatial Coherence ...

Shadow casting is based on light rays interacting with different geometries, whereas diffraction casting is based on properties of the light wave itself, which results in more spatially efficient ...

It turns out the genetic history of blue eyes is pretty twisty and interesting. More than 1 in 4 Americans have blue eyes, and across the pond, it’s every 3 out of 7. In some places, like the ...
