A research group led by Prof. Yao Baoli and Dr. Xu Xiaohao from Xi'an Institute of Optics and Precision Mechanics (XIOPM) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have revealed a full-gray optical trap in ...

Structured light can significantly enhance information capacity, due to its coupling of spatial dimensions and multiple degrees of freedom. In recent years, the combination of structured light ...

This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 9 - Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure. The ability to control the phase, polarization, and intensity of light is extensively ...

In free-space optical communication scenarios, atmospheric turbulence distorts the complex wavefront of signal-carrying light beams, leading to bit errors and even communication interruptions. Note ...

Researchers used structured light and switchable fluorescent molecules to reduce the background light from the out-of-plane regions of microscope samples. This method allowed for the acquisition of ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers have developed a tiny, room-temperature device that creates a special type of structured light called radially polarized photons, which are highly useful for secure ...

Photonics researchers have demonstrated how self-imaging of light, a phenomenon known for nearly two centuries, can be applied to cylindrical systems, facilitating unprecedented control of light's ...

Researchers from Wits University and Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona show how controlling the structure of photons in space and time enables tailored quantum states for next-generation communication ...

Light doesn’t just travel in straight lines—it can also twist. And when it does, it opens new frontiers in science and medicine. A recent breakthrough led by Professor Igor Meglinski at Aston ...

Structured Light Projection Engine is the heart of high-performance 3D AOI cameras, powering precise 3D topography reconstruction for electronics manufacturing inspection. As the core component that ...
