By trapping light into tiny crevices of gold, researchers have coaxed molecules to convert invisible infrared into visible light, creating new low-...
Researchers have made a tiny camera, held together with ‘molecular glue’ that allows them to observe chemical reactions in real time.
New mechanism found for generating giant vortices in quantum fluids of light.
A microscopic ‘pen’ that is able to write structures small enough to trap and harness light using a commercially available printing technique could...
Nanotechnology is creating new opportunities for fighting disease – from delivering drugs in smart packaging to nanobots powered by the world’s...
Researchers have successfully used quantum states to mix a molecule with light at room temperature, which will aid in the exploration of quantum...
Researchers have built a nano-engine that could form the basis for future applications in nano-robotics, including robots small enough to enter...
The development of a ‘nanobarrel’ that traps and concentrates light onto single molecules could be used as a low-cost and reliable diagnostic test.
A synthetic material which mimics the brightest and most vivid colours in nature, and changes colour when twisted or stretched, has been developed by...
A breakthrough in the use of carbon nanotubes as optical projectors has enabled scientists to generate holograms using the smallest ever pixels.
The integration of electronics with materials opens up a world of possibilities, the surface of which is just being scratched. Professor Arokia...
