ITMO Researchers Propose Power Regulator for Optical Devices
A revolutionary approach to managing the state of optical devices was proposed by a group of scientists from ITMO University and the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT). The researchers managed to control the devices’ power by varying the angle of incidence, thus allowing for more convenient regulation. Optical systems can now be turned on and off the same as lights or electric devices. The findings of the study, conducted within the program Klever, will pave the way for the production of elements for optoelectronic microdevices.

Researchers Note Topological Effects in New Waveguide Metamaterial
A novel waveguide-based metamaterial, suggested by physicists from ITMO University and their colleagues from University of Chile, has been shown to exhibit topological states. Upon contact with the edge of a sample, the light that passes through the lattice is nearly never distributed inside the structure, unlike in traditional waveguide gratings. The findings were published in Nano Letters.
