Envision a material whose magnetic properties and electronic topology can be toggled by exposure to light, paving the way for ...

Recent experiments demonstrated the possibilities of modifying ground-state chemical reaction rates by placing an ensemble of molecules in an optical microcavity. This regime is commonly referred to ...

Researchers from CIC nanoGUNE, in collaboration with the Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC) and the Center for Materials Physics (CFM), have experimentally observed and theoretically ...

Researchers patterned anisotropic rhenium disulfide into resonant metasurfaces whose quasi-bound states in the continuum ...

Physicists have long relied on optical cavities to make light and matter exchange information coherently. Mirrors bounce ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A preprint links an unexplained mitochondrial vibration to a possible quantum state and reports a 10% boost in cellular ATP.

I will discuss how terahertz (THz) light-matter coupling can be controlled in both time and space to transiently manipulate the properties of layered quantum materials. In this context, THz-driven ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2024.230181, discusses strong coupling and catenary field enhancement in the hybrid plasmonic metamaterial cavity and TMDC monolayers.

New research has shown how the quantum mechanical principle of strong coupling opens unrivalled possibilities for designing optical filters. A team of researchers from the University of Cologne, ...

Light-matter interaction describes the ways photons interact with atoms, molecules, electrons, excitons, phonons, plasmons, defects, and nanostructures. At the nanoscale, these interactions can be ...

Mitochondria have spent billions of years solving one of biology’s hardest problems: turning energy stored in food into a form cells can readily use. A provocative new preprint proposes that part of ...
