Scientists are learning to engineer light in rich, multidimensional ways that dramatically increase how much information a ...

In February 2023, Wits researchers announced a new approach to studying complex light in complex systems, such as transporting classical and quantum light through optical fibre, underwater channels, ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2022.210174 discusses nonlinear optics with structured light. Light can be tailored, much like cloth, weaving and stitching a pattern ...

This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 9 - Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure. The ability to control the phase, polarization, and intensity of light is extensively ...

Photonics researchers have demonstrated how self-imaging of light, a phenomenon known for nearly two centuries, can be applied to cylindrical systems, facilitating unprecedented control of light's ...

Quantum light is moving from blackboard equations into engineered hardware, and the shift is starting to redraw the map of advanced technology. By sculpting individual photons in space, time and ...

Harvard University spin-out Metalenz says its metasurface optics - now being produced in volume by semiconductor foundry United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC) - are appearing in a new series of ...

NTT’s research division has developed what it claims to be the world’s first programmable nonlinear photonic waveguide capable of switching between multiple nonlinear-optical functions on a single ...
