The new design ' Liquid Glass ' was announced at the keynote speech of the annual developer conference ' WWDC25 ' held by Apple from 2:00 on June 10, 2025. Liquid Glass will be used in all Apple ...

For the first time, scientists have demonstrated that negative refraction can be achieved using atomic arrays - without the need for artificially manufactured metamaterials. Scientists have long ...

Sometimes when you look into a swimming pool it’s difficult to tell how deep the water actually is. If you grab something long, like a stick, you can use it to test the depth of the water. Upon ...

The first law of refraction states that the incident rays, refracted rays, and the normal to the interface at the point of incidence, all lie in the same plane. The ratio of the sine of the angle of ...

When light travels from one substance to another, such as from air to water, it can appear bent due to refraction. This occurs because light travels at different speeds in different materials. When ...

In Modernism’s attempt to dissolve spatial boundaries with transparency, the material used - glass - is all too often dematerialised. In contrast, the New York-based designer James Carpenter is ...
