A breakthrough in metaphotonic technology has yielded a photodetector capable of directly measuring Stokes parameters without extensive computational processing. The device features independent photovoltage channels with minimal crosstalk, achieving a near-unity condition number in its responsivity matrix. This innovation could transform multidimensional optoelectronic applications.
Researchers have developed a novel metaphotonic photodetector that directly quantifies Stokes parameters, according to reports published in Nature Electronics. The technology represents a significant advancement in how optical information is processed and measured, potentially transforming applications in sensing, imaging, and communications. Sources indicate that traditional methods often struggle with information loss when response channels are coupled or signal amplitudes vary significantly.

A new Oxford University Press study finds 80% of UK teenagers use AI for schoolwork, with many reporting faster thinking but concerns about reduced depth. Researchers warn of emerging “synthetic thinkers” who process information quickly but may lack the critical analysis skills that traditional education develops.
Artificial intelligence is fundamentally transforming how teenagers learn and think, according to a comprehensive new study from Oxford University Press that surveyed 2,000 UK students aged 13 to 18. The research conducted in August found that eight in 10 teenagers now regularly use AI tools for their schoolwork, with nearly as many turning to them for homework assistance.
