I am a macro photographer who takes photographs mainly using a flash to illuminate my subject. In this line of photography as with most the quality of your light is key to the quality of your ...

Japanese electronics firm Panasonic Corporation has developed a polypropylene (PP) compound that exhibits light diffusion properties called Full Bright. The material can reportedly extend the ...

The interplay between light and hand-held device screens has driven research into light-diffusing materials that obviate such undesired aspects as image blur. As the field continues to expand, the ...

Shining a light through opaque materials seems impossible. And yet, researchers at the Debye Institute for Nanomaterials Science (Utrecht University) and the University of Twente have managed to ...

Optical diffusion techniques encompass a spectrum of methods designed to redistribute incident light in order to improve uniformity, reduce glare and enhance optical efficiency across a variety of ...

Corning announced the introduction of Fibrance Light-Diffusing Fiber, a glass optical fiber optimized for thin, colorful, aesthetic lighting. The company will feature this new technology in its booth ...

Researchers developed a nanostructured light diffuser that provides balanced lighting by diffracting blue and red light, and can be cleaned by simple rinsing with water. The diffuser consists of cheap ...

Future iPhone cameras may contain a flash that automatically adjusts and diffuses its light to better capture objects at different distances from the lens. If camera flashes were better, Apple might ...

A research team in Bochum, Germany has unexpectedly found that light can slow down movements in the nanoworld. This is due to ...

Established surface-science tools could help industrial scientists to fast-track the evaluation of advanced materials for energy-storage applications Surface physics: the OCI team has integrated a UHV ...
