Fiber sensing scientists from Shenzhen University have developed an encrypted fiber optic tag that can be used for all-optical labeling and recognition of optical transmission channels such as access ...

Complex fluids, such as polymer melts and concentrated suspensions, are foundational materials for industrial products, including high-strength plastics and optical components. The final performance ...

Measuring a thought has always been difficult. Neuroscientists have some clever ways, but now University of Connecticut researchers describe in Scientific Reports the flashiest method may be less ...

Chiral molecules present a particular challenge for analytical laboratories.Two enantiomers can share the same chemical ...

Researchers at Korea University, Seoul, have developed a new all-optical method for driving multiple highly dense nanolaser arrays. The approach could enable chip-based optical communication links ...

Central nervous system (CNS) diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) manifest early at the microscopic (i.e. cellular) level, deep in the brain. Yet, optical microscopes that can see cells in the ...

A deep reinforcement learning framework optimizes silicon-based photonic crystal fiber modulators, achieving ultra-low ...

Modern OCT devices can look inside the eye without a scalpel - but they do not always capture everything that matters. Some critical information is ...
