Imagine shining a flashlight into a material and watching the light bend backward—or in an entirely unexpected direction—as ...

We can all use a little extra light on occasion. Even if you’ve lived in your home for years, there can still be a stray bag, dog toy, pile of LEGO, or something else waiting to trip you up or ...

UD researchers develop optical method to detect magnetic behavior of antiferromagnets, paving the way for advanced computing and quantum technologies ...

The lighting in my shop sucks. It’s easy to understand why I’ve taken up a bit of an infatuation with work lights. Now, don’t get me wrong, the real solution is to install some good permanent lighting ...

New device switches terahertz pulses between electric and magnetic skyrmions On-demand control of stable toroidal vortices lays groundwork for robust wireless data e ...

Imagine computer hardware that is blazing fast and stores more data in less space. That's the promise of antiferromagnets, ...

A new study shows that trapping light inside magnetic materials may dramatically enhance their intrinsic properties. Strong optical responses of magnets are important for the development of magnetic ...

Physicists have devised a method to turn a non-magnetic metal into a magnet using laser light. Physicists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) and the Niels Bohr Institute ...
