light system (IMAGE) Penn State Caption An international collaboration demonstrated control of an “exceptional” surface and experimentally controlled a previously theoretical complete light absorption. Using a microresonator, one of many silica microspheres fabricated on a silicon chip, the researchers coupled light to the tapered optical fiber (the hair-like structure) to move light at the right frequency in and out of the microsphere resonator.
