Phototherapy offers advantages of non-invasiveness, cost-effectiveness, localized treatment, and potential for home-based care across various medical conditions. However, its adoption is hindered by ...

6月14日下午，由联合国教科文组织“国际光日”组委会、欧洲光学学会、国际光学委员会、电气电子工程师学会光子学协会、中国光学学会、中国科学报社联合主办，中国科学院长春光学精密机械与物理研究所（简称长春光机所）Light学术出版中心（简称Light中心） ...

Light Publishing Center, Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics And Physics, CAS Silicon photonics (SiPh) is an established platform for realizing complex and powerful PICs. Leveraging the high ...

It is a great honour to assume the role of Co-Editor-in-Chief of Light: Science & Applications (hereinafter referred to as Light). I would like to begin by expressing my sincere gratitude to Professor ...

Attosecond pulses capture ultrafast electron and light–matter dynamics on the shortest timescales accessible to controlled experiments, making them indispensable tools for ultrafast spectroscopy, ...

The last decade has been marked by a series of remarkable discoveries identifying how the universe is composed. It is understood that the mysterious substance dark matter makes up 85 % of the matter ...

Researchers have built a new platform that produces ultrashort UV-C laser pulses and detects them at room temperature using atom-thin materials. The light flashes last just femtoseconds and can be ...

Optical vortices—light beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM)—are characterized by helical wavefronts and phase singularities. While they have been widely studied in recent decades, two ...

Scientists at the University of East Anglia have uncovered a hidden property of light that allows it to twist, spin and behave differently—without mirrors, materials or special lenses. In a ...

New claims challenge inconsistencies in one of the foundational principles of physics. What could this mean for geophysics ...
