Nonlinear interactions between light and matter are at the heart of some of the most powerful tools in modern optics, but pushing these processes to their limits has long been hampered by a ...

Researchers have found that intense light amplifies a specific gene that bolsters blood vessels and offers protection against heart attacks. Researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical ...

November 11, 2008 (Orlando, Florida) — Intense pulsed light (IPL), alone and with blue light, appears to be much better than pulsed dye laser (PDL) in treating patients with photodamage, according to ...

Intense light activates proteins shown to protect against lung damage in mice, a discovery that could have major therapeutic implications for treating diseases like acute lung injury in humans, ...

High harmonics: a NIR pulse (red) is focussed, and high harmonics are generated in a gas jet that is placed before or behind the NIR focus. The generated XUV light (violet) has a size and divergence ...
