Researchers from the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, MIPT, and Kansas State University have established a new method to absorb electromagnetic radiation, using a specific absorbing system like an anisotropic crystal. The study holds immense potential for electrodynamics and could offer a new way to absorb the electromagnetic wave energy. The results of the study have been reported in Physical Review B.
Scientists from the University of Strathclyde have discovered that the charged particle motion can be controlled by the diffraction of ultra-intense laser light, traveling via a thin foil. The findings in the fundamental physics of the laser-plasma interactions, may have a major impact in the fields of security, industry, and medicine. This breakthrough holds immense potential in advancing compact, cost-effective, laser-powered particle accelerators.
A team of researchers from Penn State have developed a new and unique technique that enables the detection of single molecules of biological and chemical species from solid, liquid and gaseous samples, based on the ultra sensitivity of the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) with a slippery surface invented by Penn State. The researchers believe that the new technology would pave the way for various applications in the field of analytical chemistry, molecular diagnostics, environmental monitoring and national security.
Rice University scientists have invented an adaptive material, self-adaptive composite (SAC), that combines reversible self-stiffening and self-healing properties. SAC comprises a solid matrix composed of sticky micron-scale rubber balls.
Imagine if your clothing could, on demand, release just enough heat to keep you warm and cozy, allowing you to dial back on your thermostat settings and stay comfortable in a cooler room. Or, picture a car windshield that stores the sun’s energy and then releases it as a burst of heat to melt away a layer of ice.
What do astrophysics, telecommunications and pharmacology have in common? Each of these fields relies on polarimeters — instruments that detect the direction of the oscillation of electromagnetic waves, otherwise known as the polarization of light.
A team of researchers from the University of Edinburgh has reconstructed a unique material which constitutes much of the larger planets in the solar system.
A new alloy with cold-loving features is reported to be one of the toughest metallic alloys ever, according to a team of Berkeley Lab researchers.
A team of scientists from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) and the Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics in the Russian Academy of Sciences has proposed a two-dimensional metamaterial composed of silver elements, that refracts light in an unusual way.
A team of physicists from ITMO University, Ioffe Physical-Technical Institute and Australian National University have researched the phenomenon of phase transition between photonic crystals and metamaterials - two types of periodic structures capable of manipulating light in intricate ways. The study helps to gain an insight into the fundamental properties of periodic structures and opens new possibilities for the design and creation of new electromagnetic materials. The results of the study were published in Nature Communications.
