When light travels through an almost transparent object such as a cell, its amplitude remains nearly unaltered; however, the phase of the transmitted light contains valuable information about the ...

X-ray Laue diffraction. The nanosecond white-light Laue back-reflection patterns were recorded for shock pressures ranging from 17 to 50 GPa, with the X-ray pulse timed such that diffraction ...

Posted: Apr 04, 2012: Controlling the diffraction of light by using light (Nanowerk Spotlight) All-optical processes could allow dramatic speed increase in photonics by eliminating the need to convert ...

A diffraction grating is a kind of optical component whose micro-features act to disperse and scatter light. Diffraction gratings are available as thin plastic film with one side that is chock ...

For thousands of years, thinkers argued about whether light is made of particles or waves. At the beginning of the 20th century, scientists realized it was both: massless particles and waves.

New twists in the diffraction of intense laser light Date: January 12, 2016 Source: University of Strathclyde Summary: A discovery could have a major impact on advancing smaller, cheaper, laser ...

But a recent paper in Nature Photonics presented a result that most people will find very startling: researchers have created a material which prevents light from exhibiting diffraction.

A material that is capable of the “reverse diffraction” of light and that is inspired by butterfly wings has been made by researchers in the US. The structure combines features of the butterfly’s ...
