For the first time scientists observe the creation of matter from light

One of the most fascinating implications of Einstein’s famous equation E=mc2 is that matter and energy are interchangeable. In other words, it should be possible to create matter from pure energy, such as light.

The Opponent Process Theory of Color Vision

Understanding How We See Color (By Kendra Cherry, MSEd) Opponent process theory suggests that the ability to perceive color is controlled by three receptor complexes with opposing actions. These three receptor complexes are the red-green complex, the blue-yellow complex, and the black-white complex. Current research suggests that the true pairings for these receptor complexes are … Read more

SunLike LEDs: A Perfect Choice for Illuminating Art and Cultural Exhibits

Seoul Semiconductor’s groundbreaking SunLike LEDs are the natural spectrum LEDs, designed to produce light that closely matches the spectrum of natural sunlight. This remarkable achievement is made possible by utilizing TRI-R technology and a unique LED architecture, which combines a purple emitter with a red, green, and blue (RGB) phosphor mix, as opposed to the … Read more
