A team of researchers from the RIKEN Center for Emergent Matter Science (CEMS) in Japan has identified unexpected dynamic properties of a type of light wave called evanescent waves. These surprising ...

A team of researchers at Technion—Israel Institute of Technology has developed a new technique for conducting real-time evanescent wave imaging using standard optical technology. In their paper ...

Fig. 1 (a) Schematic of a PM that consists of two nanobeam cavities. (b) Normalized profile of the electric field (Ex at left and Ey at right) for the S and AS mode Polarization is an intrinsic ...

People think I’m compensating, but I’m not. I just happen to like seeing tiny objects in exquisite detail. So my obsession—one that I inflict on others as often as possible—continues to grow. My ...

[Alan Yates] is building a persistence of vision display and needs a way to transfer power from the stationary base to the spinning circuitry. He’s decided to go with wireless energy transfer and he’s ...

Researchers at Caltech in the US have invented a new type of imaging technique that merges the best qualities from electron and light microscopy. The hybrid technique, dubbed “photon-induced ...

— The purpose of the paper 1 that has elicited the above comment was to test the specific predictions of the composite diffracted evanescent wave (CDEW) model 2 of optical response to subwavelength ...

Researchers have identified unexpected dynamic properties of a type of light wave called evanescent waves. These surprising findings contrast sharply with previous knowledge about light and photons. A ...
