The nightly sky has fascinated early humans and modern research scientists alike. Many wonder what is out there and look to the sky for answers to questions like: are we alone? Due to the vast scale of the ...

Stars have always fascinated astronomers and scientists alike. Some wondered whether there could be sun-like stars and a solar system similar to our own in other galaxies.  Others have wondered how stars ...

On September 14, 2016, one of the greatest discoveries in Physics took place: Detection of Gravitational waves. Gravitational waves were theorized on the basis of General Relativity (GR) – a theory ...

Ten years ago, the idea of detecting planets outside of our solar system (a.k.a. an exoplanet) was nothing more than a far-fetched dream. However, in the last few years, powerful ground based and space ...

A team of researchers from the Korean Advanced Institute of Science and Technology has developed improved techniques for large-scale nanohole fabrication. Importantly, these nanoholes are used in ...

Researchers at the University of Delaware have revealed an exciting opportunity for the market of energy efficient technologies. In a paper published in February’s issue of Optics Express, the team ...

Introduction to the Diode Laser Researchers have been developing different types of coherent light sources to fit a larger span of applications since 1960. Present-day lasers vary in size, power-range, and ...

Having discussed the history and physics of AR coats, our final article discusses the standard AR coating techniques via application of thin films. The basic principles of AR coating application remain the ...
