How can we measure visible light? The electromagnetic spectrum includes all forms of light energy, known as electromagnetic radiation. (1) Different types of electromagnetic radiation such as radio ...

Researchers have developed a low-cost visible light communication (VLC) system using commercially available hardware that ...

A newly developed molecular system makes possible the efficient conversion of even weak visible light from sunlight and indoor LEDs into ultraviolet light. Light-powered processes from hydrogen ...

A thin-film material that converts infrared light into visible light has been unveiled by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Made of two non-conventional semiconductors, ...

Light is one of the primary things that allows humans to function effectively and efficiently. Indeed, without it, we are basically hopeless; however, a lot of it is…well, missing. Perhaps a better ...

Our little-known ability to see infrared light could occur when pairs of photons combine their energies to appear as one "visible" photon Although we do not have X-ray vision like Superman, we have ...

Researchers have developed a low-cost visible light communication (VLC) system using commercially available hardware that ...

A novel dye-sensitized photocatalyst developed at Science Tokyo enables the capture of long-wavelength visible light for ...

Life truly is radiant, according to an experiment conducted by researchers from the University of Calgary and the National Research Council of Canada. An extraordinary experiment on mice and leaves ...
