Optical trapping with enhanced spatial accuracy and stiffness is possible using super-oscillating light beams that have been structured. Scientists from Tel-Aviv University in Israel and the ...
These so-called structured beams not only can tell scientists a lot about the physics of light, they have a wide range of applications from super-resolution imaging to molecular manipulation and ...
This new device provides a flexible connection between the PIC and free space with potential applications in beam steering, structured light generation, and cold atom-qubit manipulation.
New research has shown that carefully structured light and matching arrangements of metal nanostructures can be combined to alter the properties of the generated light at the nanometer scale. The ...
Communication technologies could soon deploy structured light to transport information faster and make data more secure, according to a new scientific review.
The system works by projecting structured light onto two linear optical sensors. The pattern of the light is an m-sequence – basically a barcode where every subset of the m-sequence is unique.
The first step is to place a soft and compliant outer skin over a rigid metallic skeleton, which is then illuminated internally using structured light techniques.
Researchers at King’s College London have developed a new technique for instantly switching the polarisation of light. The breakthrough, which has the potential to provide a major boost for data ...
For the latter purpose, light beams with unconventional polarizations, so-called structured light, are expected to be crucial.
