Light’s hidden magnetic power may lead to faster, more precise optical devices, study finds
A new Israeli study suggests that light can directly influence materials in a magnetic field in ways scientists had long overlooked, a finding that could affect technologies from fiber-optic ...
A team of scientists led by Academician Professor Xiang Zhang, President and Vice-Chancellor of The University of Hong Kong ...
Light beams of varying intensities (yellow cylinders) help visualize magnetic domains (light and dark areas), separated by domain walls (red lines). When something draws us in like a magnet, we take a ...
In 1845, physicist Michael Faraday provided the first direct evidence that electromagnetism and light are related. Now, it turns out that this connection is even stronger than Faraday imagined. In his ...
