Polarization, as a primary physical quantity of light, is of great interest to almost all optical sciences and technologies. Along with linear polarization detection, circular polarization (or light ...

The research group proposed and tested a nano-antenna that uses the specific optical resonance of dielectric nanoparticles to form a near field of circularly polarized light. This technique bolsters ...

An electromagnetic wave or signal traveling from “here” to “there” has an electrostatic field component that we call its E-field and whose direction we assign as the signal’s polarity. Often, the ...

Researchers use circularly polarized light to control the direction of exciton polaritons in 2D semiconductors, enabling new tools for nanoscale photonics. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Directing light along ...

Abstract Chiral halide perovskites have emerged as promising materials for spin-optoelectronic devices owing to their ability to emit circularly ...

This review examines the role of twisted light in chiral systems, highlighting its applications in spectroscopy and materials ...

A device produces green light while a researcher in lab gear stands in the background. This OLED device, which is held by a mechanical support, is producing circularly polarized light. Credit: ...
