  1. AI-Designed Waveguides Pave The Way For Next-Generation Photonic Devices 6/8/2025

    A team of researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has introduced a novel framework for designing and creating universal diffractive waveguides that can control the flow of light in highly specific and complex ways.

  2. Foam Offers Way To Manipulate Light 11/15/2019

    There is more to foam than meets the eye. Literally. A study by Princeton scientists has shown that a type of foam long studied by scientists is able to block particular wavelengths of light, a coveted property for next-generation information technology that uses light instead of electricity.

  3. Using Sound And Light For Ultra-Fast Data Transfer 2/11/2020

    Researchers have made a breakthrough in the control of terahertz quantum cascade lasers, which could lead to the transmission of data at the rate of 100 gigabits per second.
