NIST Researchers measure and modulate trapped light.

Researchers working at NIST have developed novel way to non-invasively measure and map how and where trapped light vibrates within microscale optical resonators. New technique not only makes for more accurate measurements but also allows scientists to fine-tune trapped light’s frequency by subtly altering shape of resonator itself. Visualizing vibration patterns will help scientists to perfect ultrasensitive optical sensors for detecting biomolecules and even single atoms.
