In this episode of Photonics Hot List...
Artists and photonics researchers have joined forces to raise awareness of air pollution—the leading environmental threat to human health. The team hopes a new imaging approach they’ve designed, which involves optical sensors and LEDs, will ultimately help tackle this worldwide problem.
The standard approach to stimulating and controlling muscle movements in people with paralysis can be challenging. A team of researchers is working to overcome the hurdles using optogenetics and light.
The next generation of quantum internet could be in the pipeline, thanks to researchers’ work with nanophotonic quantum memory nodes and existing telecom optical fiber.
