Scientists at Heriot‑Watt University have demonstrated in a world-first, that light can be used to control every aspect of ...

You've worn 3D glasses in cinemas, witnessing stunning depth as each eye sees a different image. You've put on polarized sunglasses in summer ...

Researchers at Heriot‑Watt University have achieved a world-first in photonics by using light to control all aspects of light polarization at ultrafast speeds. The technique, 100,000 times stronger ...

Controlling both the state and degree of polarization of light is a long-standing challenge in optics. While metasurfaces offer compact, high-resolution control over wavefronts, most existing designs ...

Keratoconus is a progressive eye disease that weakens the cornea, but its earliest (subclinical) stage is difficult to detect ...
