New research has achieved a significant breakthrough in color switching for nanocrystals, unlocking exciting possibilities for a simple, energy efficient display design and for tunable light sources ...

Conventional light sources for fiber-optic telecommunications emit many photons at the same time. Photons are particles of light that move as waves. In today’s telecommunication networks, information ...

Suited for use as a calibration reference for light sources and imaging systems, the RS-5B Digital Light Source System is a spectrally-tunable, programmable, and self-calibrating 16-bit color ...

Color-changing light-emitting fibers woven into fabric enable flexible, pixel-level displays for smart textiles, opening new possibilities for wearable communication. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Imagine a ...

Figure 1. Schematic of a tunable microlaser based on phase-change perovskite gain medium, sandwiched between Au mirror and DBR reflector sitting on a quartz glass substrate, pumped by blue-violet ...

Researchers have created visible lasers of very pure colors from near-ultraviolet to near-infrared that fit on a fingertip. The colors of the lasers can be precisely tuned and extremely fast -- up to ...

(Nanowerk News) While nanocrystals offer color tunability and are used in various technologies, achieving different colors requires using different nanocrystals for each color, and dynamic switching ...
