The biggest challenge is the need for substantial changes in material properties to make a noticeable momentum bandgap.

Blue and black or white and gold? A decade later, it turns out the ultra-viral optical illusion dress was also a boon to scientific advancement.

Abstract: In order to achieve helicity-dependent All-Optical Switching in ferromagnetic Co/Pt multilayer thin films, meticulous control over the thin film parameters is needed. Even samples with ...

A natural phenomenon has been spotted across West ... be reflected into a "pillar" or beam-like structure. This creates an optical illusion to the human eye where it appears the light is coming ...
