German-Indian research team achieves further step towards miniaturised optical isolators / For on-chip integration of optical computer technologies It has been known for centuries that light exhibits ...

The polarization of light can be rotated by almost 6° as it passes through a single sheet of graphene in a magnetic field, according to an international team of physicists. This latest property of ...

Silicon-based electronics are approaching their physical limitations and new materials are needed to keep up with current technological demands. Two-dimensional (2D) materials have a rich array of ...

Adobe’s research team isn’t slowing down — a new teaser video showing the ability to 3D rotate a face in a two-dimensional image is the third glimpse in three days into what the software group is ...

It has been known for centuries that light exhibits wave-like behaviour in certain situations. Some materials are able to rotate the polarisation, i.e. the direction of oscillation, of the light wave ...
