A scattering-invariant mode of light is generated by a spatial light modulator. This modulated beam propagates through free space (top) or a strongly scattering medium (bottom) such that the pattern ...

Your phone warms up after a 20-minute FaceTime call. Your laptop hums loudly while editing a large video file. Heat is a ...

Researchers in Europe have developed a technique for obtaining accurate laser-based measurements of objects hidden behind complex scattering structures. They say that their mathematical formula, which ...

Artistic depiction of the darkness measurement. Image not to scale. Physicists have experimentally confirmed a strange ...

Light is more than what we see. The Sun sends out a number of waves of light in different wavelengths. Find out about wavelengths and the electromagnetic spectrum. Science Trek is available to stream ...

And an international team of physicists appears to have found just such a loophole: the only thing that goes faster than ...

Light is well known to exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties, as imaged here in this 2015 photograph. What's less well appreciated is that matter particles also exhibit those wave-like ...

A research group from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology reports in Nature an unprecedented achievement in electron microscopy: the direct measurement of "dark points" within light waves. By ...

Scientists have proposed a surprising new way to detect gravitational waves—by observing how they change the light emitted by atoms. These waves can subtly shift photon frequencies in different ...
