• ITMO Scientists Achieve Record-Breaking Efficiency of Terahertz Radiation in Liquids

  …is bigger. That’s why in the gas medium, the potential number of excited electrons is smaller. With the help of double-pulse excitation, the scientists were able to reach a new maximum value of the optical-to-THz conversion’s efficiency (0.1%). The idea behind this approach lies in launching two excitation pulses into the medium. The first one pre-ionizes the medi…

• Mind-Blowing Research of the Month: Neuroarchaeology

  … To sum it all up, the merger between neuroscience and archaeology is a rather intriguing process. While researchers have the chance to test their creativity by coming up with new experiment designs, those participating in their research get to do a little time-traveling as they learn to make tools from the Stone Age. Let us keep an eye on this field – and who knows,…

• ITMO Physicists Discover New Physical Effect

  …d point a laser beam to a semiconductor list, a cloud of these quasiparticles will appear. By studying this process, ITMO University physicists have discovered theoretically a new effect that they called the Anomalous Exciton Hall Effect. If you take a thin stripe of semiconductor material and put it under a laser beam at 90 degrees with enough power, you’d get an…
