Neuroscientists and materials scientists have created contact lenses that enable infrared vision in both humans and mice by converting infrared light into visible light. Unlike infrared night vision ...

The electromagnetic spectrum, or EM spectrum, is the name given to the collection of all electromagnetic radiation in the universe. This is a type of energy that pervades the cosmos in the form of ...

A new method to measure the continuous spectrum of light is set to improve thermal imaging and infrared thermography. A new method to measure the continuous spectrum of light, developed in the lab of ...

Contact lenses have enabled people to see beyond the visible light range, picking up flickers of infrared light even in the dark – or with their eyes closed. The lenses contain engineered ...

An international team of researchers, led by Drexel University, has found that a thin coating of MXene — a type of two-dimensional nanomaterial discovered and studied at Drexel for more than a decade ...
