“We’ve demonstrated that we can confine infrared light to 10% of its wavelength while maintaining its frequency—meaning that the amount of time that it takes for a wavelength to cycle is the ...

A new filter for infrared light could see scanning and screening technology tumble in price and size. Built on nanotechnology ...

Infrared light has longer wavelengths than visible light, and we can feel it as heat. In fact, some animals, like snakes, can see in the infrared part of the spectrum! Visible light is what we can see ...

They assign various infrared wavelengths to colors on the visible spectrum, the familiar reds, blues, yellows, etc. But while the processed images from the Webb team aren’t literally what the ...

The images from JWST like the one of the Carina nebula and the deep field image are composed from data from the infrared spectrum, which has a longer wavelength than visible light, and is ...

Infrared contact lenses using nanoparticles convert near-infrared (800–1600 nm) into visible light, enabling users to perceive infrared wavelengths without external power.

Physicists at ETH Zurich have developed a lens that can transform infrared light into visible light by halving the wavelength of incident light. The study is published in Advanced Materials.
