Invisible light beyond the range of human vision plays a vital role in communication technologies, medical diagnostics, and ...

Sensitive imaging has revealed that living mice emit a faint visible glow that drops sharply once life ends. The finding ...

Researchers have built a paper-thin chip that converts infrared light into visible light and directs it precisely, all without mechanical motion. The design overcomes a long-standing efficiency-versus ...

Ultraviolet and near-infrared light are widely used in modern technologies but are invisible to the human eye. Researchers ...

Earlier this year, scientists published a paper outlining how platypuses exhibit biofluorescence under ultraviolet (UV) light. That is, how the duck-billed mammals are able to glow like a black-light ...
