ITMO Physicists Propose Ultra-Fast Acceleration Method for Twisted Particles
Researchers from ITMO University are the first to demonstrate that twisted electrons – particles that not only orbit but also create a sort of quantum vortex in accelerators – can reach immense speeds without losing their quantum properties. These particles proved to be more efficient in high-quality electron and ion microscopy and can be used to study the properties of nuclear forces and the previously inaccessible quantum effects in accelerators. Earlier, no model could accurately describe the acceleration of twisted particles and the conditions for maintaining their twisted state. The findings of the Russian Science Foundation-supported study are published in Physical Review Letters.

ITMO Scientists Create an Optical Platform That Switches LED Lights in Ten Nanoseconds
Researchers at ITMO’s Faculty of Physics developed the first-ever all-optically switchable platform that uses a laser beam, not electricity, to turn LEDs on and off. The solution demonstrates a 100,000-fold improvement in switching time compared to electricity-based analogs and offers specialists the flexibility and agility to “draw” and rewrite LED lighting patterns with just a laser. The technology facilitates the design of ultrafast radiation sources for screens, sensors, and systems for data encryption and transmission. The results of the study, supported with the grants from the Russian Ministry of Science and Higher Education and the Russian Science Foundation, are published in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces.
