A new plasmonic fiber probe uses linearly polarized light and energy recycling for broadband nanofocusing with resolution ...

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 ...

For over a century, light has both helped and limited our view of the tiny world. Microscopes use light to magnify cells, microbes, and nanomaterials—but light also behaves like a wave, and waves ...

Sum-frequency generation (SFG) is a powerful vibrational spectroscopy that can selectively probe molecular structures at surfaces and interfaces, but its spatial resolution has been limited to the ...

California drivers are being warned to be on high alert as possible changes to highway speed limits come into effect from Thursday. A new speed enforcement law, which will be enforced from Jan. 1, ...

If you're planning an interstate road trip or traveling by car over the holidays, take special notice that speed limits might be different than what you're used to. Maximum speeds are left up to ...

A technical paper titled “Scalable nanopatterning of organic light-emitting diodes beyond the diffraction limit” was published by researchers at ETH Zurich, University of Alberta, Indian Institute of ...

Abstract: As semiconductor manufacturing approaches the diffraction limit of lithography, traditional model-based optical proximity correction (MBOPC) techniques face accuracy bottlenecks due to ...

Researchers built a silver-grooved chip that channels laser energy into nanometer-spaced peaks, beating the diffraction limit and aiding light-matter studies. (Nanowerk News) Physics is full of pesky ...

(a) Working principle of metasurface displacement measurement can be understood as the detection of the power of different modes of the converted light. The incident irradiated on the metasurface and ...
