Research from The University of Queensland aimed at controlling light in scattering materials, such as fog or biological tissues, will benefit future biomedical imaging and telecommunications. Optics researchers Dr Mickael Mounaix and Dr Joel Carpenter have found a new way of controlling how light travels through different materials at different times using optical fibers. "The reason you can't see through a solid brick wall is pretty straightforward - the wall absorbs the light so no image or information can get through," Dr Mounaix said.
