Lithium niobite (LN) with an ultra-wide optical transparent window has shown excellent nonlinear, electro-optic, acoustic-optic, piezoelectric, thermoelectric and photorefractive effects. It is an ...

Cheaper and more efficient photonic devices, such as lasers, optical fibers, and other light sources may be possible with confined light that is unaffected by imperfections in the material that ...

Waveguides generate digital images directly in the field of vision and enable smart glasses such as the Meta Ray-Ban. We explain the technology behind them. Waveguides, as they are known in German, ...

Waveguides are structures designed to direct and control the propagation of electromagnetic waves from one point to another. They play a crucial role in various fields, including telecommunications, ...

Since its inception, augmented reality (AR) technology has faced a persistent engineering challenge: achieving a wide field of view (FOV) and excellent display quality within a compact and lightweight ...

SCHOTT—a global leader in advanced optics and specialty glass—working with waveguide partner Lumus, is almost certainly the manufacturer of the waveguide optics in Meta’s Ray-Ban Display glasses.
