CU Boulder researchers have designed microscopic “racetracks” that trap and amplify light with exceptional efficiency. By using smooth curves inspired by highway engineering, they reduced energy loss ...

A pair of photons enters an optical maze, and sometimes they leave as something new. Not new in the everyday sense, since both were still photons when they came out.

A suspended chalcogenide waveguide achieves record ppb-level gas detection in the near-infrared, enhancing sensitivity for portable environmental monitoring.

Automated DIC imaging with the DM6 M microscope enhances six-inch wafer inspection, providing reproducible results and improved efficiency for defect analysis.

Optical percutaneous needle biopsy techniques are revolutionizing tumor diagnostics, enabling real-time analysis and improving the accuracy of tissue sampling.
