US scientists have discovered that using wavelength-selective, semi-transparent PV modules to absorb the blue light spectrum while transmitting red light onto crops can increase crop yield. “Today’s ...

Aquatic algae called diatoms have been found to use light-sensing proteins as depth indicators. Detecting depth-related changes in the intensity and spectrum of light enables algae to modulate their ...

Red light therapy (RLT) involves exposing the body to low-wavelength red or near-infrared light (IRL). Red and near-IRL differ slightly in terms of wavelength and visibility. Red light is visible to ...

Follow any beauty biohacker on social media right now and you’ll hear them raving about the benefits of red-light therapy. There's so much hype about the technology that it's fair to ask, “Does ...
