Scientists have demonstrated that light alone can reversibly control magnetism in a topological material. Researchers at the ...

One of the most widely used safety requirements in working environments, laboratories, workshops, and factories is eye ...

For the first time, physicists have generated and observed stable bright matter-wave solitons with attractive interactions ...

By shining a focused laser beam onto a sample of material, a team at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) and ETH Zürich showed ...

Scientists enable excitons to surpass light to transform materials and open new advanced paths to quantum devices.

A team of engineers and scientists has shown for the first time that a hard-X-ray cavity can provide net X-ray gain, with ...

Researchers have found that under certain conditions, a laser beam can act like an opaque object and cast a shadow, opening new possibilities for technologies that could use a laser beam to control ...

Audi was the first to show laser headlamps, at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in 2014, and took it to production with the R8 LMX - just a week after BMW released its own laser-light i8.

A new experiment has demonstrated something that sounds physically impossible – light itself casting a shadow. It turns out that if you manipulate a laser just right, then hit it side-on with another ...

For the experiment, a high-power green laser was directed through ruby cube and illuminated with a blue laser from the side. The green laser increases the optical absorption of the blue illuminating ...
