Researchers Propose New Route for Programmable Infrared Optics
UC Santa Barbara researchers Prasad Iyer and Prof. Jon Schuller propose a new route, novel electrically reconfigurable metasurfaces, as an important step towards on-chip programmable optics.
3D printing of complex micro-objectives
Researchers at University of Stuttgart created optical lenses which are hardly larger than a human hair.
A solution for low loss, three-dimensional structures at optical frequencies
Sheng Liu, Igal Brener, Mike Sinclair and other co-workers from Sandia National Laboratories demonstrated both two-dimensional and multilayer (3D) dielectric metamaterials made from III-V semiconductors (elements from groups III and V on the periodic table) using a monolithic fabrication process.
Three Decades of Auxetics Research – Materials with Negative Poisson’s ratio: A Review
A comprehensive updated review of auxetic materials, their types and properties, and applications.
Advanced Optical Materials – June Issue Covers
Check out the articles highlighted on the covers of the latest issue of Advanced Optical Materials.
Topical Issue: Image Processing in Biomedical Diagnosis
A special issue of Journal of Biophotonics is devoted to the topic of image analysis and processing in biomedical diagnosis.
Photochromic Triad as Multifunctional Switch
Researchers from China present a ferrocene-grafted photochromic triad that can act as multifunctional switch.
Real-Time Dynamic Hologram of a 3D Object with Fast Photochromic Molecules
Researchers have achieved the real-time dynamic holographic movie of a 3D object
A new paradigm for hybrid optical materials
In a new study led by the University of Adelaide in Australia, researchers have developed a versatile direct-doping approach to integrate UPNCs in glass. They discovered that the upconversion emissions of erbium ions can be used to diagnose the survival and dissolution fraction of doped UPNCs in glass.
