    Femtosecond lasers could have a new trick to add to the arsenal of effects they produce: They may be able to make it rain.

  8. NONLINEAR OPTICS : All-optical method upconverts 2-D images

    Article

    Sat, 23 Jan 2010

    A full image of one color is optically upconverted to an image of a different color; the technique shows promise for imaging at wavelengths where direct, fast detection is difficult.
