Physicists have developed a lens with 'magic' properties. Ultra-thin, it can transform infrared light into visible light by halving the wavelength of incident light.

The contact lens technology uses nanoparticles that absorb infrared light and convert it into wavelengths that are visible to mammalian eyes (e.g., electromagnetic radiation in the 400–700 nm ...

CHICAGO (WGN) — What you see is what you get! That’s how patients often feel after undergoing cataract surgery. Now, an adjustable lens is giving older adults the best vision of their lives ...

ROANOKE, Va. (WDBJ) - For patients needing cataract surgery, the new Light Adjustable Lens could be a game changer when it comes to fine tuning eyesight after surgery. It’s the first and only ...

Ultra-thin lenses that generate new light. Using this technique, the ETH researchers in Grange’s group succeeded in creating the first lithium niobate metalenses with precisely engineered ...

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.
