Greetings stargazers. Everything we know about things outside of our solar system is from the light we receive. I am using ...

Light is usually described using quantum mechanics when phenomena like entanglement enter the picture. But a new paper shows ...

With the rapid advancement of multi-dimensional detection technologies including hyperspectral imaging and polarization ...

Physicists have shown that ultra-thin two-dimensional materials such as tungsten diselenide can rotate the polarization of visible light by several degrees at certain wavelengths under small magnetic ...

Think of all the information we get based on how an object interacts with wavelengths of light—aka color. Color can tell us if food is safe to eat or if a piece of metal is hot. Color is an important ...

A research team from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has advanced the ...
