Progress has been made in the corrosion mechanism of alkali aluminum phosphate glass at Shanghai Optics and Machinery Institute

Infrared imaging and sensing technology can be used in various fields, from astronomy to chemistry. For example, when infrared light passes through a gas, sensing changes in light can help scientists identify specific properties of the gas. The use of visible light may not always achieve this sensing.However, existing infrared sensors are bulky and inefficient. In addition, due to the use of infra...

Headdisplay devices such as Apple Vision Pro, Meta Quest, and PICO are expected to completely change the way we perceive and interact with various digital information. By providing more direct interaction with digital information, MR has become one of the key driving forces for the metaverse, spatial computing, and digital twins, and has begun to be widely applied in fields such as intelligent tou...

A team of computer and electrical engineers at UC Santa Barbara, in collaboration with several colleagues at Caltech and another colleague at Anello Photonics, has developed a first-of-its-kind chip that can carry both laser and photonic waveguides. In a paper published in the journal Nature, the team describes how they made the chip and how it worked during testing.With the advent of integrated c...
