Lattice light sheet microscopy is a newer light sheet microscopy technique that is primarily used in biological settings. It is a method that uses sheets of light in a lattice conformation to take ...

A new metasurface design greatly improves light emission in atomically thin materials, offering a path to low-power, flexible ...

Colloidal halide perovskite nanocrystals have emerged as strong candidates for light-emitting diodes and solar applications ...

The bulbs are infamous for generating more heat than light. Now a microscopic tungsten lattice — in effect, a tungsten filament fabricated with an internal crystalline pattern — developed at ...

We’ve found a clever way to get around this limitation, however, by making matter out of light. In place of the atomic lattice, we use light waves to create what we call an optical lattice.

New 'switch' could power quantum computing: Light lattice traps atoms, builds networks of quantum information transmitters Date: April 9, 2014 Source: Massachusetts Institute of Technology Summary ...

Photonic lattices are materials specially designed to cage light. By shaking the mesh of the cage, we can see how light, initially passing freely, finds its room for manoeuvre progressively ...

The researchers used ultrashort laser pulse excitation to optically stimulate specific atomic vibrations of the magnet’s crystal lattice. (Credit: Lancaster University) Intense laser pulses can turn ...

All those sea sponges that live in deep oceans have a secret: their light lattice-like forms are astonishingly stiff and strong. Inspired by these fascinating creatures, researchers at Australia's ...

The fluid motions of a T cell’s microvilli, scanning their environment for antigens, are captured in 3-D and in real time. A series of rodent experiments showed that even with abundant food and water, ...
