Russian Scientists Develop New Metasurfaces for Deep UV-Imaging
… first time, we’ve created the metasurface, which stably emits femtosecond pulses of big power in ultraviolet range," notes Anton Tsypkin, assistant of ITMO’s Department of Photonics and Optical Information Technology. "Such light can be applied in biology and medicine, as femtosecond pulses affect biological objects more precisely". For example, using deep UV, on…

What a Twist: Silicon Nanoantennas Turned Light Around
…nipulated in some way, for instance, by applying a constant electric or magnetic fields or by varying the intensity of incident light. In the paper, published in Laser & Photonics Reviews, the researchers designed a novel nonlinear nanoantenna can change the direction of light scattering depending on the intensity of incident wave (Fig. 1). At the heart of the pro…

WorldUsabilityDay@ITMO: Not Every Trend Has to Be Followed Blindly
… is useful. Interface developers don’t have to follow new trends blindly, presented by IT giants such as Google and Apple," noted Ivan Burmistrov, an employee at the Russian-Estonian company InterUX. "Sometimes a new thing is not so useful but instead has been advertised very well. That is why skilled developers create an interface by taking into account needs of use…
