Researchers describe a new platform for controlling the chaotic behavior of light by tailoring its scattering patterns using light itself. Harnessing and controlling light is vital for the development ...

Light is usually described using quantum mechanics when phenomena like entanglement enter the picture. But a new paper shows ...

Physicists have engineered photons that behave as if they inhabit a space far richer than the familiar three dimensions, ...

When a laser experiment fails to produce the expected flash of light, most researchers would assume something went wrong with ...

Researchers have used a 350-year-old theorem to better understand the strange nature of light. The team took a theorem used for describing pendulums and substituted the brightness of light in for what ...
