Researchers Found an Unconventional Phase Transition in Photonic Structures
…Photons in these materials can move in very unusual trajectories that are defined by the properties of the constituents that make up the periodic structure of the material. Scientists from Russia and Australia decided to test how the optical properties of such materials would change if their parameters were gradually modified. As a model, the scientists deal with lots of data that are very difficult to process. For instance, optimizing and analyzing of information developed by Hadron Collider requires effective processing technolog…
