Researchers have developed a new microscopy method that uses a magnetic field and polarized light to provide quantitative ...

Polarized sunglasses produce light that is polarized along a single direction. But some special devices can generate light with a polarization that rotates as the light propagates. Such circularly ...

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have succeeded in detecting laser-assisted electron scattering (LAES) using circularly polarized light for the first time. The use of circularly ...

Cuttlefish attract prospective sexual partners by creating a pattern on their skin, based on the orientation of light waves. By Kate Golembiewski Many of the snazziest decorations in the animal ...

The system shines polarized light at cells and captures their unique polarization signatures. By combining theoretical modeling with machine learning algorithms, the researchers extracted six specific ...

The challenges of fabricating micromotors and geartrains with comparable size to a human cell. The problems of powering such motors. How metasurfaces allow projected laser output to power these ...

Photoplethysmography (PPG) is an optical sensing technique that measures blood volume changes and underpins devices ranging from hospital-grade pulse oximeters to consumer wearables that track heart ...

A device produces green light while a researcher in lab gear stands in the background. This OLED device, which is held by a mechanical support, is producing circularly polarized light. Credit: ...
