A pulse of light sets the tempo in the material. Atoms in a crystalline sheet just a few atoms thick begin to move—not ...

A flash of light has turned a sheet of atoms into a dance floor. In a feat of precision physics, researchers from Cornell and ...

Researchers built a silver-grooved chip that channels laser energy into nanometer-spaced peaks, beating the diffraction limit and aiding light-matter studies.

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have achieved high-resolution visualization of cellular organelles, such as nuclei and ...

X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) is a powerful structural characterization tool that is essentially a two point probe which measures the distance between all pairs of atoms within the diffraction volume ...

Chinese automaker Chery is apparently interested in this device, which mitigates sound differences for a cleaner listening ...

The diffraction spikes so familiar to us in space images are an intrinsic property of the telescope. Reflecting telescopes have two mirrors: a large primary and a smaller secondary. Light hits the ...

By Opeyemi Akanbi. The Kennedy College of Sciences, Department of Physics, invites you to attend a Master of Science in Physics thesis defense by Opeyemi Samson Akanbi ...

A MONOCHROMATIC beam of cathode rays was directed against a cleavage face of calcite at a grazing incidence, and the diffraction pattern was obtained on the photographic plate placed behind the ...

Researchers have developed an optical computing system that performs feature extraction for quantitative trading with ...
