How can we measure visible light? The electromagnetic spectrum includes all forms of light energy, known as electromagnetic radiation. (1) Different types of electromagnetic radiation such as radio ...

It's not easy being green. Scientists for years have made small red and blue lasers, but other colors, including green, have been a challenge. A team has now filled this technology gap by creating ...

Researchers have created visible lasers of very pure colors from near-ultraviolet to near-infrared that fit on a fingertip. The colors of the lasers can be precisely tuned and extremely fast -- up to ...

For years, scientists have fabricated small, high-quality lasers that generate red and blue light. However, the method they typically employ — injecting electric current into semiconductors — hasn’t ...

Scientists have made small red and blue lasers for years, but other colors have been a challenge. Researchers have filled an important technology gap by creating orange, yellow and green lasers tiny ...
