Once they had samples that worked well, they still had trouble aligning their twisted light with the sample to observe the current. "The signal we were looking at was not quite consistent," says ...

Scientists in Germany have crafted “skyrmion bags” of light—complex vortex-like structures—on the surface of gold by cleverly ...

researchers sheds light on a light bulb that looks similar to an ordinary filament bulb but produces twisted light, known to ...

A team of researchers at the University of Stuttgart has created completely new properties for light by manipulating how it ...

With further research, this technology could be built into compact, wearable sensors, diagnostic scanners, or communication devices—making twisted light a powerful tool for both healthcare and ...

Engineers reveal a soft ring robot powered by infrared light that can climb a wire like a cable car but without any wheels.

In twisted moiré photonic crystals, how the layers twist and overlap can change how the material interact with light. By changing the twist angle and the spacing between layers, these materials ...

researchers have observed—for the first time—the interactions between electrons and an exotic atomic vibration in twisted sheets of graphene, called a phason. These findings shed new light on ...

A joint team of researchers from South Africa and China has demonstrated that it is possible to transmit multiple quantum patterns of twisted light across conventional fibre networks. Normally ...
