A novel dye-sensitized photocatalyst developed at Science Tokyo enables the capture of long-wavelength visible light for ...

Bobbing along on the research vessel Western Flyer just outside California’s Monterey Bay, marine biologist Karen Osborn and her colleagues were hauling deep-sea fish to the surface for cataloging and ...

In the darkest depths of the ocean, where little to no light from the surface penetrates, unusual creatures thrive, many of whom create their own light via bioluminescence to hunt for prey, among ...

Researchers have made a discovery that changes what we know about light and materials. They found that engineered achiral (symmetric) materials, called achiral plasmonic metasurfaces, can absorb light ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers at the University of Ottawa have made a discovery that changes what we know about light and materials. They found that engineered achiral (symmetric) materials, called ...

A group of physicists from Russia, Sweden, and the U.S. has demonstrated a highly unusual optical effect: They managed to "virtually" absorb light using a material that has no light-absorbing capacity ...

Researchers have developed a new method for light and matter interaction, paving the way for the production of ultrathin silicon solar cells. The University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) team's ...

Now, researchers at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering and the Abdus Salam International ...

A research group led by Associate Professor Masahito Murai of the Graduate School of Science and Professor Shigehiro Yamaguchi of the Functional Organic Materials Laboratory has successfully developed ...

Princeton researchers have uncovered new rules governing how objects absorb and emit light, fine-tuning scientists' control over light and boosting research into next-generation solar and optical ...
