On the International Day of Light, we would like to share this picture of the Del'Haye Research Group "Microphotonics" at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (MPL) with you.

Scientists at MPL utilize light to study nonlinear phenomena in photonic integrated circuits and optical fibers. This image shows light traveling through optical fibers.
