After decades of physics-based theorizing, researchers have succeeded in creating a novel optical metamaterial using conventional materials. Its enhanced electromagnetic effect may make true one-way ...

Researchers have discovered how to make an optical metamaterial that would underpin a variety of new technologies. A new approach has allowed researchers at Aalto University to create a kind of ...

Humans have been making glass for 4,000 years. But now, scientists are developing techniques that will impact everything from medicine to the way we see the universe. Technicians in upstate New York ...

Scientists show that it is possible to make a femtosecond laser that fits in the palm of one's hand using a glass substrate. Is it possible to make a femtosecond laser entirely out of glass? That's ...
