• Scientists Develop World’s First Photonic Quadrupolar Topological Insulator

  …der topological states in 3D geometries in an attempt to create a three-dimensional topologically protected waveguide. Just imagine: the light will propagate along complex nonplanar three-dimensional trajectories in this structure, without any dissipation on curves and with effective protection from disorder. This would’ve been very bright physics,” underlines the re…

• Scientists Describe Universal Way of Compressing and Stopping Light for Ultrafast Optical Data Transmission

  …a changing refractive index can in fact change its own frequency, which essentially means changing its color. This effect is known as “direct transition”. For a more visual explanation of what this effect involves, Alexander Petrov makes a comparison of light with sound. “Is it possible to change the frequency of already-excited oscillations so that the oscillat…
