The role of light in our lives is both pervasive and primordial. Ultraviolet light probably had a role in the very origins of life, and light-driven photosynthesis underlies all but the most primitive ...

The recent development in the utilization of flexible optical fiber sensors and the prospective application scenarios were then summarized, which encompass human activity monitoring and healthcare, ...

A new article published in Opto-Electronic Science reviews the fundamentals and applications of optically trapped optical nanoparticles. Optical nanoparticles are one of the key elements of photonics.

Optical interconnects, leveraging intrinsic advantages such as high bandwidth, low loss, and immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI), are thus regarded as a promising solution to these barriers ...

Anti-Reflection (AR) coatings represent a key innovation in optics. AR coatings are central to the proper manipulation of light, mitigating Fresnel reflection, enhancing system throughput and ...
