Researchers at the University of Tokyo have demonstrated that the direction of the spin-polarized current can be restricted ...

A team of researchers has made a remarkable breakthrough in spintronic technology, achieving a one-directional flow of ...

Researchers Ibuki Taniuchi, Ryota Akiyama, Rei Hobara, and Shuji Hasegawa of the University of Tokyo have demonstrated that ...

IT was discovered by Haidinger 1 in 1844 that the human eye can detect the direction of polarization of linearly polarized light. Looking at a white field through a nicol, one sees a yellow figure ...

Imagine a clock where the colors aren’t from LEDs but a physics phenomenon – polarization. That’s just what [Mosivers], a ...

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 ...

This article was originally published with the title “ Polarized Light and Animal Navigation ” in Scientific American Magazine Vol. 193 No. 1 (July 1955), p. 88 doi:10.1038 ...

Bright, twisted light can be produced with technology similar ... Usually photons from a blackbody source are randomly polarized -- their waves may oscillate along any axis. The new study revealed ...

You want to look movie-star suave in your new shades, of course. You gotta be able to wear them in a wide range of scenarios. And, perhaps most importantly, they need to actually work—after all, ...
