Biological physicist Ibrahim Cissé develops super-resolution microscopy tools to watch ephemeral molecular interactions and ...

Light-field camera particle detector PLATON — developed by ETH Zurich and EPFL — replaces millions of scintillator components ...

Physicists at Peking University have uncovered a new way to confine light far beyond conventional limits — without relying on metals and their inherent energy dissipation. By formulating the ...

Artistic rendering of scanning-exciton optical nanoscopy (SEON) showing correlative dual-parameter mapping of light-field intensity and local density of optical states (LDOS) on a single gold ...

Narwhal-shaped wavefunctions describe a unique way of confining light to extremely small spaces. The mode volume measures how tightly light is confined and affects how strongly it interacts with ...

All in all, time is of the essence here! After all, what puzzle is interesting without a time limit? Take another good look at the image and try to spot the culprit in under 10 seconds! Breaking It ...

Imaging technology has transformed how we observe the universe—from mapping distant galaxies with radio telescope arrays to unlocking microscopic details inside living cells. Yet despite decades of ...

Cameras may soon see without lenses, and the change could be as profound as the leap from film to digital. A new imaging technology developed at the University of Connecticut promises to rewrite the ...

(Yicai) Oct. 17 -- Tsinghua University, a prestigious Chinese university in Beijing, has successfully developed the world's first sub-ångström snapshot spectral imaging chip, which was dubbed Rafael.

Optical lattice clocks are emerging timekeeping devices based on tens of thousands of ultracold atoms trapped in an optical lattice (i.e., a grid of laser light). By oscillating between two distinct ...

Abstract: High axial resolution in Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images is essential for accurately diagnosing skin conditions like psoriasis and keratoderma, where clear boundary delineation can ...
