Physicists at ETH Zurich have developed a lens that can transform infrared light into visible light by halving the wavelength of incident light. The study is published in Advanced Materials. Lenses ...
A team in China has woven tiny, light-converting particles into soft contact lenses, granting wearers the power to perceive infrared light both in the dark and, surprisingly, with their eyes closed.

Our eyes take in the dazzling greens of dense forests, blues of alpine lakes, and reds and purples of sunset. Yet there’s an entire world hidden from sight. Our eyes only perceive a narrow sliver of ...
Infrared light passes through the metal lens and is converted into violet light and focussed in a focal point due to the material and the special surface structures – enlarged in the magnifying glass.
