Have you ever wished to drive microscopic matter along an arbitrarily tailored trajectory instead of just a circle? That's ...

Large-aperture interferometers are important in the manufacturing and measurement of large-aperture optical elements, which play critical roles in the fields of optical precision manufacturing and ...

Light has always carried more than brightness. In this case, it also carries direction and twist. That mix may open a new ...

Researchers have developed a new method to measure the small forces exerted by light with high precision. Using this approach ...

A powerful new microscopy technique unveils hidden nanoscale light interactions, offering a glimpse into physics that ...

Researchers cracked the mystery of altermagnets, materials with no net magnetization yet strange light-reflecting powers, by creating a new optical measurement method. Their findings confirmed ...

Modern life depends on fast and reliable wireless connections. Video calls, streaming services, virtual reality, and smart devices all place growing demands on networks that already serve billions of ...

Artificial intelligence grows more demanding every year. Modern models learn and operate by pushing huge volumes of data through repeated matrix operations that sit at the heart of every neural ...

Want to call someone a quick-thinker? The easiest cliché for doing so is calling her a computer – in fact, “computers” was the literal job title of the “Hidden Figures” mathematicians who drove the ...
