A team of physicists from the University of Ottawa have developed a new theoretical model that shines new light on how ...

This image captures a laser beam interacting with polariton microcavities, revealing how polaritons help protect emitting materials from brightness loss. Researchers at the University of Turku in ...

A new technical paper titled “A nanolaser with extreme dielectric confinement” was published by researchers at Technical ...

Strong light–matter coupling has emerged as a transformative concept in modern physics, whereby the interaction between confined electromagnetic fields and material excitations is engineered to yield ...

Light that twists as it travels and materials whose internal order is knotted like a pretzel are starting to collide in the lab, and the result is a new class of strange, topological effects. Instead ...

Scientists have recently achieved a groundbreaking feat by creating a new form of light matter within a quasicrystal. This development introduces a novel phase of matter that defies conventional ...

«Our work shows that virtual carrier excitation, which develops in a few billionths of a billionth of a second, are indispensable to correctly predict the rapid optical response in solids,» said ...

Scientists show that virtual charges, fleeting carriers created by light, play a crucial role in shaping how solids respond to ultrafast light pulses. The research, conducted in partnership with the ...

Researchers at Rice University, Houston, Texas, have developed a new way to control light interactions using a specially engineered structure called a 3D photonic-crystal cavity. Their work, published ...
