Researchers have found that under certain conditions, a laser beam can act like an opaque object and cast a shadow, opening new possibilities for technologies that could use a laser beam to control ...

A team of scientists has found that the narrow beam of a laser, under specific conditions, can cast a shadow — a counterintuitive finding that could open the doors for new applications of optical ...

In the experiment, a high-power green laser passed through a ruby cube, illuminated from the side by a blue laser. The green laser increased the ruby’s absorption of the blue light, creating a darker ...

A team at Harvard and Technical University of Vienna have invented a new tunable laser that uses a series of rings to smoothly emit many light wavelengths from a single chip. The laser could replace ...

A new experiment has demonstrated something that sounds physically impossible – light itself casting a shadow. It turns out that if you manipulate a laser just right, then hit it side-on with another ...

GOLETA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KYOCERA SLD Laser, Inc. (KSLD), a world leader in commercialization of laser light sources, has announced the demonstration of Laser-based Automotive Headlight Modules ...

For the experiment, a high-power green laser was directed through ruby cube and illuminated with a blue laser from the side. The green laser increases the optical absorption of the blue illuminating ...
