In free-space optical communication scenarios, atmospheric turbulence distorts the complex wavefront of signal-carrying light beams, leading to bit errors and even communication interruptions. Note ...

Scientists are learning to engineer light in rich, multidimensional ways that dramatically increase how much information a ...

Physicists and chemists have jointly succeeded in developing a so-called nano-tomographic technique which is able to detect the typically invisible properties of nano-structured fields in the focus of ...

Structured light waves with spiral phase fronts carry orbital angular momentum (OAM), attributed to the rotational motion of photons. Recently, scientists have been using light waves with OAM, and ...

What are Blue Light 3D Scanners? Structured light 3D scanners, typically mounted on a camera stand, robot, or tripod, function as point-and-shoot cameras and need little or no programming with minimal ...
