Step outside on a clear night, trace the hazy stripe of the Milky Way and enjoy the comfortable illusion that you more or ...

A chart has been prepared to illustrate the visible spectra of various colored diamonds as recorded ... spectrum from the ultraviolet through the visible and into the infrared regions. There are, ...

In a collaborative effort, researchers at the University of Amsterdam and the HFML-FELIX institute in Nijmegen have been able ...

A new filter for infrared light could see scanning and screening technology tumble in price and size. Built on nanotechnology ...

Now, mass spectrometry is used to capture these ions in a vacuum and to analyse their structure using cryogenic infrared spectroscopy, in conjunction with computational calculations. We developed ...

The heat index is expected to soar this weekend. Here's what to know about the scale, potential dangers and how to protect ...

This study presents a dimer-dominated emission quenching mechanism that enhances second near-infrared emission in ring-fused fluorophores by reducing dimer populations for high-resolution vascular ...

Finally, the tellurium meshes, especially the infrared vision capability they offered, were tested on healthy macaques, an ...

As well as extending our ability to perceive more of the infrared spectrum, another potential use here could be correcting color-blind vision. This is because the lenses can be made to color code ...

As well as enabling wearers to perceive more detail within the infrared spectrum, these color-coding nanoparticles might be modified to help color blind people see wavelengths that they would ...

Human eyes typically detect only a small fraction of the electromagnetic spectrum known as visible light. This light ranges from 400 to 700 nanometers. Unfortunately, infrared radiation ...

Swiss scientists have developed an ultra-thin lens that turns infrared light into visible light using lithium niobate and nanoscale patterns.
