"We can interrogate any system, from hard condensed matter to soft biological tissue." Two of their findings, which explore how structured light can be used to alter and control material properties, ...

Fig. 1 Contents of this review. When AI and structured light meet, the intersection facilitates the generation of new forms of light, the unravelling of structured light, and the application of ...

Photonics researchers have demonstrated how self-imaging of light, a phenomenon known for nearly two centuries, can be applied to cylindrical systems, facilitating unprecedented control of light's ...

An international team of scientists, including researchers from the UAB, has published in Nature Photonics a review on an emerging field that is transforming the way we communicate, measure and ...

Scientists are learning to engineer light in rich, multidimensional ways that dramatically increase how much information a single photon can carry. This leap could make quantum communication more ...

Topological spin textures, spatially organized patterns linked to the intrinsic angular momentum of particles, have proved to be highly advantageous for the development of spintronics and quantum ...
