Nonlinear optics is the branch of photonics that studies material responses wherein the induced polarisation is not directly proportional to the applied electromagnetic field. In these media, intense ...

Organic Non-Linear Optical (NLO) Materials have emerged as a promising field of study within the realm of chemistry. These materials possess unique optical properties that enable the manipulation and ...

A standard digital camera used in a car for stuff like emergency braking has a perceptual latency of a hair above 20 milliseconds. That’s just the time needed for a camera to transform the photons ...

Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed an optical computing framework that performs large-scale nonlinear computations using linear materials. Reported in ...

Nonlinear optics has long relied on high-power lasers, whose spatial and temporal coherence ensures efficient nonlinear frequency conversion. However, a new study challenges the traditional assumption ...

Science X is a network of high quality websites with most complete and comprehensive daily coverage of the full sweep of ...

In January, a team led by Jim Schuck, professor of mechanical engineering at Columbia Engineering, developed a method for creating entangled photon pairs, a critical component of emerging quantum ...
