Researchers have discovered brand new interference patterns in twisted two-dimensional tungsten ditelluride lattices. These so-called moir patterns can be tuned to look like periodic spots or even one ...

Researchers at Rice University have made a groundbreaking discovery in the field of quantum physics, unveiling a powerful ...

In a striking display of quantum physics, a team of researchers has recreated one of science’s most legendary experiments—with unprecedented precision. At MIT, scientists cooled thousands of atoms to ...

Barrier-grid animations (also called scanimations) are a thing most people would recognize on sight, even if they didn’t know what they were called. Move a set of opaque strips over a ...

On Sept. 1, much of Europe and North America were treated to a rare nighttime display. Unlike the lights that dazzled most of ...

An FM translator in the North Carolina Triangle region has returned to the air, but a co-channel operator in Virginia argues ...

Polarization Interference Imaging Spectrometry is an advanced optical technique that combines the principles of polarisation manipulation and interferometry to capture detailed spectral and spatial ...

One of the simplest and most beautiful naturally occurring patterns can be observed when light is shined through a pair of slightly misaligned periodic structures. This phenomenon, known as the moiré ...
