Acoustic frequency combs organize sound or mechanical vibrations into a series of evenly spaced frequencies, much like the teeth on a comb. They are the acoustic counterparts of optical frequency ...

A team of researchers from the Ministry of Health in Kuwait has successfully demonstrated the destruction of SARS-CoV-2 virus particles through exposure to high-frequency sound waves, marking a ...

Engineers at MIT have built a device that uses high frequency sound waves to shake drinkable water out of the air in minutes, turning a slow, energy hungry process into something closer to flipping a ...

Researchers have found a novel way to use high-frequency acoustic waves to mechanically manipulate light at the nanometer scale. Potential applications include everything from ultrathin screens to ...

A team of researchers has for the first time successfully used lasers to generate guided sound waves on the surface of a microchip. These acoustic waves, akin to the surface waves produced during an ...

Light can behave in very unexpected ways when you squeeze it into small spaces. In a new paper in the journal Science, Mark Brongersma, a professor of materials science and engineering at Stanford ...
