Undergraduate student research focuses on light-powered photonic devices, illuminating the lifelong benefits of collaboration ...

Light is something we use and need every day. It is a form of energy that allows us to see all around us! Lots of different sources produce light. Earth's main source of natural light is the Sun.

Lasers, LEDs and light sources are devices that create light. LEDs (light emitting diodes) convert an electrical current into light using spontaneous emission in optically active semiconductors.

SPHEREx will begin routine science operations in late April, NASA said. At that time, the space telescope will begin taking about 600 exposures a day. The observatory is capable of detecting infrared ...

For now, researchers think the light might be coming from the first stars to exist, or outflows from a supermassive black ...

The emergence of convenient sources of broadband light spanning the visible and near-infrared is proving increasingly useful for applications involving spectroscopy, imaging and metrology ...

As construction finishes on China's High Energy Photon Source, scientists are lining up to use it to further their research About 50km (30 miles) north of Beijing's city centre, construction is ...
