The desired pattern is then cut out and subjected to infrared light. The material contracts at the hinges, and the sheet collapses into a predefined 3D structure. Dr. Michael Dickey, who co ...

a simple probe light beam exiting an optical moiré lattice can be chopped up into diffuse streaks or confined into a single bright spot, depending on the twist angle in the moiré lattice. (Courtesy: ...

Here, in this work, we detail a method of capturing 2-dimensional light patterns into DNA, by utilizing optogenetic circuits to record light exposure into DNA, encoding spatial locations with ...

In a recent article published in Nature communications*, researchers described a technique of capturing two-dimensional (2D) light patterns into deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and using high ...

North Carolina State University researchers have developed a method for having 2D patterns made of plastic self-assemble into 3D objects using a heat lamp and printer ink. North Carolina State ...

When light hits these materials, it excites electrons, which then pair with light particles (photons) to form new, hybrid ...

The researchers focused on six plane light waves propagating through the crystal and coupling through a process called Bragg diffraction. They then performed numerical simulations of 2D coupling ...

Silicon nanofins are arranged in the Penrose tiling pattern as illustrated by the 2D color image on the surface ... properties of quasicrystals with light manipulation techniques.

Up-conversion of light has diverse applications, especially in defense and optical communications. In a first, the IISc team used a 2D material ... imprints a particular pattern in the input ...
