    Novel Near-Infrared Light Detection Method Using Upconversion Materials is Demonstrated

    A perovskite-based photodetecting device for near-infrared (NIR) light was prepared by using perovskite coated up-conversion nanoparticles(UCNPs) with strong NIR absorption and high UC efficiency.

    ­Under the JST Strategic Basic Research Program PRESTO, Associate Professor Ayumi Ishii of Teikyo University of Science with her team members has developed a new near-infrared light sensor by using a material that converts weak near-infrared light to visible light. Near-infrared light is used in a wide ra

    Meta-Optics: The Disruptive Technology You Didn't See Coming

    Centre Director (front, knelling third from left) Professor Dragomir Neshev and the team of students, researchers, and international collaborators gather to celebrate team achievements at the 'better together - together we're meta' conference in November 2022.

    ­Robots and autonomous cars will have eyes that see much more than the human eye is capable of, a review of the growing field of meta-optics has found. Meta-optics is advancing science and technology far beyond the 3000-year-old optical paradigm that we rely on for the visual human-machine interface, such as t

    Milestone for Laser Technology

    German-French research team builds free-electron laser at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) driven by particles from a plasma accelerator - and generates well-controllable laser flashes for the first time with this still young technology.

    ­Extremely intense light pulses generated by free-electron lasers (FELs) are versatile tools in research. Particularly in the X-ray range, they can be deployed to analyze the details of atomic structures of a wide variety of materials and to follow fundamental ultrafast processes with great precision. Until no
