[The Thought Emporium] has been fascinated by holograms for a long time, and in all sorts of different ways. His ultimate goal right now is to work up to creating holograms using chocolate, but along ...

A project at the University of Strathclyde has now shown that consumer-grade 3D printers and low-cost materials can be used to produce multi-element optical components that enable super-resolution ...

Microlenses have many applications, such as coupling light into fiber optics, enhancing light source uniformity in microdisplays, and focusing light onto imaging sensors in mobile phone cameras.

Scientists have unveiled a new way to capture ultra-sharp optical images without lenses or painstaking alignment. The ...
