Forget LEDs, researchers from the University of Michigan have developed a new type of incandescent light bulb. The device is capable of emitting elliptically polarized light, described as "twisted" ...

Left and right circularly polarized light, where the electromagnetic waves spiral in a clockwise and counterclockwise manner ...

It's a beautiful summer day, and you're outside enjoying the weather. You are wearing your favorite sunglasses for protection from the bright sun. However, you still find yourself squinting when the ...

Polarized dermatoscopes offer superior image quality and ease of use but are significantly more expensive than nonpolarized ...

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 from the University of Oxford have for the first time discovered an approach to electrically switch organic LEDs ...

Many materials emit light in ways that encode information in its polarization. According to researchers at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, polarization is key for future ...

As the sun goes down outside of Sydney, Australia, bull ants march out of their nests and into the trees. Once there, the ants attack other insects and arthropods, as well as collect tree sap and ...
