MIT researchers discovered a paradoxical phenomenon in optical physics that could enable a new bioimaging method that's ...

The current administration’s policies impede the best and the brightest foreign-born researchers' access to research ...

Materials called relaxor ferroelectrics have been used for decades in technologies like ultrasounds, microphones, and sonar ...

After a surprising discovery that overcomes a longstanding problem in fiber optics, MIT researchers demonstrated a biomedical ...

The researchers want to better understand the fundamental physics of the pencil beam and the mechanisms behind its self ...

At high power, laser light inside a multimode optical fiber is supposed to misbehave. The beam usually breaks into a noisy, scattered pattern as the light ricochets through many paths at once.

For the first time, researchers directly characterized the 3D atomic structure of a relaxor ferroelectric, a class of ...

A technique inspired by the film Interstellar suggests a new way of communicating backwards in time, but it could help ...

MIT researchers discovered a paradoxical phenomenon in optical physics that could enable a new bioimaging method that's faster and ...

Discover how a self-organizing “pencil beam” laser could allow for faster and more precise biomedical imaging.

For the first time, scientists have measured the 'shape' of an electron in solids, opening the door to advances in quantum ...

There is no question that violin-making is an art form. It requires a musician's ear, a craftsperson's skill, and a historian ...
