High-power visible lasers with a high repetition rate are essential to many materials-processing applications. Scientists in Germany recently...
Eye-safe lasers, whose wavelengths are not transmitted through the human cornea and thus are incapable of damaging the retina, are required in many...
Tiny resonators and waveguides based on photonic crystals provide a promising approach to fabricating high-density photonic integrated circuits....
Polarizers often are required for fiber optic communications, but those fabricated in fibers usually have a self-defeating temperature dependence....
Negative refraction — the recently realized opposite of positive refraction — is of interest because, among other applications, it promises a...
