A new lens-free imaging system uses software to see finer details from farther away than optical systems ever could before.

Scientists have unveiled a new way to capture ultra-sharp optical images without lenses or painstaking alignment. The ...

The demonstrated QCMs can reconstruct holographic images and display diffraction patterns simultaneously. Silicon nanofins are arranged in the Penrose tiling pattern as illustrated by the 2D color ...

Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman and his student Nagendra Nath published a series of papers in 1936 on the diffraction of light by a liquid in the field of a high frequency sound wave. This was ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the ...

Increasingly complex applications such as artificial intelligence require ever more powerful and power-hungry computers to run. Optical computing is a proposed solution to increase speed and power ...

For the first time, researchers from Tokyo University of Science have observed wave-like interference patterns from ...

In geology, electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) is a powerful tool for the observation and analysis of microstructures and for phase identification. The EBSD system, by Oxford Instruments, ...
