A team at Indiana University’s School of Optometry has developed a noninvasive imaging system that enables non-contact in vivo imaging of human corneal microstructures. They say it provides a closer view of corneal disease biomarkers earlier to ultimately aid treatment.

A new metamaterial based on the nonreciprocal magnetoelectric effect (also known as the Tellegen effect) developed at Aalto University is poised to revolutionize industrial applications, and could pave the way for true one-way glass design.

A quantum nanophotonics breakthrough—polaritonic nanocavities—by physicists in Israel and Spain is redefining the limits of light confinement and making possible new quantum electrodynamics experiments.
