Researchers at The University of Osaka, in collaboration with ULVAC, Inc. and Ritsumeikan University, have developed a new ...

A flat chip smaller than a fingernail can now do the work of 11 separate optical components, thanks to a counterintuitive ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2024.240076 , discusses spin-controlled generation of a complete polarization set with randomly-interleaved plasmonic metasurfaces.

Researchers have overcome the limitations of existing metasurface technologies and successfully designed a Janus metasurface capable of perfectly controlling asymmetric light transmission. Metasurface ...

Controlling both the state and degree of polarization of light is a long-standing challenge in optics. While metasurfaces offer compact, high-resolution control over wavefronts, most existing designs ...

Metasurfaces are two-dimensional (2D), nanoengineered surfaces that interact strongly with electromagnetic waves and can control light with remarkable precision. These ultra-thin layers can be used to ...

The iridescent blue of butterfly wings has inspired researchers to find a solution to a challenge previously considered insurmountable—dynamically tuning advanced optical processes at visible ...

(Nanowerk News) Metasurface technology is an advanced optical technology that is thinner, lighter, and capable of precisely controlling light through nanometer-sized artificial structures compared to ...
