A novel universal light-based technique to control valley polarization in bulk materials

Electrons inside solid materials can only take certain values of energy. The allowed energy ranges are called "bands," and the space between them, the forbidden energies, is known as "band gaps." Both of them together constitute ...

How light can vaporize water without the need for heat

It's the most fundamental of processes—the evaporation of water from the surfaces of oceans and lakes, the burning off of fog in the morning sun, and the drying of briny ponds that leaves solid salt behind. Evaporation ...

Study shines light on properties and promise of hexagonal boron nitride, used in electronic and photonics technologies

Single-photon emitters (SPEs) are akin to microscopic lightbulbs that emit only one photon (a quantum of light) at a time. These tiny structures hold immense importance for the development of quantum technology, particularly ...
