Have you ever wished to drive microscopic matter along an arbitrarily tailored trajectory instead of just a circle? That's ...

Scientists have unveiled a breakthrough imaging method that can capture the hidden details of events unfolding in trillionths ...

Light Publishing Center, Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics And Physics, CAS Complex modulation of optical fields (i.e., the control of light’s amplitude and phase) is vital to the ...

A novel imaging method captures ultrafast events with unprecedented detail by combining laser encoding and AI reconstruction. Researchers have introduced a new imaging method that reveals far more ...

A tiny silica bead, just 100 nanometers across, sits suspended in a vacuum and vibrates under the grip of laser light. Those ...

Light has always carried more than brightness. In this case, it also carries direction and twist. That mix may open a new ...

Physicists have directly tracked tiny points of darkness in laser light racing faster than light itself, without breaking Einstein’s rules. The new measurements show that these “dark points” in a ...
