For the experiment, a high-power green laser was directed through ruby cube and illuminated with a blue laser from the side. The green laser increases the optical absorption of the blue illuminating ...
A new experiment has demonstrated something that sounds physically impossible – light itself casting a shadow. It turns out that if you manipulate a laser just right, then hit it side-on with another ...
A team of scientists has found that the narrow beam of a laser, under specific conditions, can cast a shadow — a counterintuitive finding that could open the doors for new applications of optical ...
On a handful of long, isolated expressways in China, drivers cruising through pitch-dark stretches are suddenly engulfed in ...
LK Metrology has announced the release of its L100NX laser scanner for use on coordinate measuring machines. Unlike its red light predecessor, the L100, the new scanner uses 450-nanometer blue light, ...
Researchers have found that under certain conditions, a laser beam can act like an opaque object and cast a shadow, opening new possibilities for technologies that could use a laser beam to control ...
