Rainbows are formed when light bends—or refracts—as it enters and exits a water droplet. The amount that the light bends depends on the color of the light, resulting in white light being separated ...

Optical phased array (OPA)-based LiDAR technology provides high-speed, solid-state sensing for autonomous vehicles, robotics, and aerial systems. However, current OPA-based LiDAR platforms lack the ...

In a new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2021.210040, Researchers led by Professor Daewook Kim from The University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, USA consider advances in optical ...

A new approach that uses light to switch the magnetic states of a material could lead to faster, smaller and more ...

The role of light in our lives is both pervasive and primordial. Ultraviolet light probably had a role in the very origins of life, and light-driven photosynthesis underlies all but the most primitive ...

Severe fine dust pollution over Seoul and Mexico City, being composed of the same type of fine particulate matter (PM2.5), exhibits markedly different characteristics. Seoul's air tends to reflect ...

Optical instruments are how we see the world, from corrective eyewear to medical endoscopes to cell phone cameras to orbiting telescopes. This course extends what you have learned about first-order, ...

Photon Engineering LLC is a consulting and software development firm based in Tucson, AZ specializing in all phases of optical engineering: design, analysis and implementation. Founded in 1997 by ...

We're looking for an Optical Systems Engineer who thrives on solving the hard problems - someone who can model a lens stack from first principles, run the simulations, and give the rest of the team a ...
