Polarized light is one of the most powerful tools scientists have for peering inside matter, yet the way it twists, scatters ...

Forget LEDs, researchers from the University of Michigan have developed a new type of incandescent light bulb. The device is capable of emitting elliptically polarized light, described as "twisted" ...

Generation of circularly polarized nonlinear signals from chiral metasurfaces with rotational symmetry under arbitrarily polarized excitation. Left and right circularly polarized light, where the ...

Sunglasses, to most folks, are functional as well as fashionable, but to an angler, they’re a bit more—especially when those shades are the best polarized sunglasses you can find. Most fishermen learn ...

New method identifies altermagnets by signatures from circularly polarized light, validated in MnTe, speeding discovery for faster, efficient spintronics.

Astronomers have captured the first view of polarized light and the magnetic fields that surround Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), the supermassive black hole at the heart of the Milly Way. The new EHT ...
