Researchers at Tampere University have recently demonstrated that light can be used to precisely reshape soft materials ...

Researchers at Skoltech have developed an ultra-compact electro-optic modulator based on silicon photonics and plasmonics ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Although people often say nothing travels faster than the speed of light, this cosmic speed limit only pertains to particles with information or mass ...

A new holographic storage technique uses light in three dimensions to dramatically increase how much data can be stored. It encodes information throughout a material using amplitude, phase, and ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) In the age of big data, we are generating more images than we can actually process. Autonomous vehicles, medical scanners, and quality control systems rely heavily on ...

Numerical examples for explaining the basic procedure for computational light control. (a) Single-lens optical imaging system with three distributed apertures. (b) Phase tilt is added to the small ...

Swave Photonics, the true holographic display company, today announced that its Holographic eXtended Reality (HXR) Spatial Light Modulator has been selected as an Honoree for the CES® 2026 Innovation ...

Researchers developed a new type of spectral shaper that can shape the spectrum of 10,000 lines of light from a laser frequency comb. The image shows the spatial light modulator they used with a 2D ...
