The new technique utilizes MRI to produce an image of the breast, yielding information on its structure, including shape and composition. The near-infrared light technique provides information on how ...

As electro-optic circuits are more frequently applied in consumer, commercial, government and communications products, there is a general need for greater optical control and tighter electro-optical ...

The difficulty and expense of connecting a home to a fiber-optic network led Cedar Networks of Durango to explore alternatives to make that “last mile” hookup more affordable and practical for ...

Physical optics (PO) methods have emerged as a cornerstone of electromagnetic scattering analysis for electrically large and complex targets. By representing induced surface currents on illuminated ...

Alzheimer's disease is marked by the buildup of amyloid plaques in the brain, but most ways of studying these deposits in mouse models require sacrificing the animals. That limits researchers' ability ...

Lately, planar liquid crystal (LC) optics is emerging as a novel holographic optical element (HOE). Besides the ability to record and reproduce arbitrary wavefront as in traditional HOEs, planar LC ...

Researchers at MIT, Cambridge, Ma, US, have developed novel photographic optics that capture images based on the timing of reflecting light inside the optics, instead of the traditional lens-element ...

Laser Center Hannover (LZH) is helping to expand the testing methods for optics used in modern high-power laser components. In the "cw-LIDT" research project, LZH is working together with companies ...

Combining a plaque-binding fluorescent dye with flat and tapered optical fibers enables depth-resolved monitoring across brain regions during natural behavior, offering a minimally invasive way to ...
