ITMO Scientists Present A Way to Control Light-Matter Coupling in Next-Gen Optical Devices
…lectronics. However, controlling and studying such particles is not an easy task because they are trapped inside a waveguide and thus do not emit light into free space. To solve this problem, physicists are developing durable photonic structures – metasurfaces that can transfer light out of the waveguide. Typically, such metasurfaces are complex and expensive to …

A Material Simulating Dark Matter Particles Described
…Dark matter is one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in physics, with even its structure unknown to scientists to this day. One hypothesis is that dark matter is made up of axions, hypothetical particles predicted by Frank Wilczek, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, in the 1970s. Axions exhibit a weak interaction with ordinary matter and can convert to photons in a st…
