Conventional curved lenses, which direct light by refraction in glass or plastic, are often bulky and heavy, offering only ...

Researchers have developed innovative methods to control the ionization of atoms and molecules using specially structured light beams, challenging traditional limits. This breakthrough could lead to ...

A supersolid is a phase of matter that combines two apparently opposite characteristics: the rigidity of a crystal and the ...

Argonne scientists have unveiled new methods for controlling material properties. The breakthrough enables researchers to ...

Scientists have unlocked a new way to control ionization, the process where atoms lose electrons, using specially designed ...

Researchers at the University of Ottawa have made a breakthrough in understanding ionization, the process by which atoms lose ...

They can be seen as "artificial atoms," whose physical properties can be adjusted at will. By coupling them, a system was ...

Once the free particles had been tucked away into atoms, light was able to spill forth, propagating throughout the Universe.

With properties of a superfluid but with a crystalline structure, supersolids have previously only been observed in ultracold ...

By taking two flakes of special materials that are just one atom thick and twisting them at high angles, researchers at the ...
