The ability to control the wavefront of light is fundamental to focusing and redistribution of light, enabling many applications from imaging to spectroscopy. Wave interaction on highly nonlinear ...

For example, by adding or dropping a particular color, or wavelength, of light traveling in an optical fiber, scientists can control the amount of information carried by the fiber. By altering the ...

A project at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and Sandia National Laboratories has identified a new way to optimize the quality of 3D-printed thermoplastics. Described in Science, the ...

White Light Emitting Diodes (LED) replace HID lamps in street lighting system to include a dimming feature. A microcontroller of 8051 family is used to control the intensity by developing pulse width ...
