Harnessing and controlling light is vital for the development of technology, including energy harvesting, computation, communications, and biomedical sensing. Yet, in real-world scenarios, complexity ...

A recent study published in Open Biology reports that exposure to intense light almost instantly provokes courtship behavior in male fruit flies (Drosophila). Surprisingly, the researchers observed ...

In a recent study published in Scientific Reports, researchers aimed to understand the influences of Light Exposure Behavior Assessment (LEBA) categories on chronotype, mood, sleep quality, memory, ...

Light has always been described as an elegant partnership of electric and magnetic fields, yet for nearly two centuries physicists treated the magnetic side as a quiet background player. New ...

Researchers have created a bilayer metasurface made of two stacked layers of titanium dioxide nanostructures, opening new possibilities for structuring light. Almost a decade ago, Harvard engineers ...

Researchers describe a new platform for controlling the chaotic behavior of light by tailoring its scattering patterns using light itself. Harnessing and controlling light is vital for the development ...

Researchers were able to control the behavior of various light frequencies that passed through a specially designed cavity. The successful experiment can pave the way fiber optic advances that offer ...
