Researchers have created an optical device that can generate both electric and magnetic vortex-ring-like light patterns.

A new optical device allows researchers to generate and switch between two stable, donut-shaped light patterns called ...

Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) have uncovered previously unobserved oscillation states—so-called Floquet states—in tiny magnetic vortices. Unlike earlier experiments, ...

Magnon frequency combs could enable coupling across different physical systems. (Nanowerk News) Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) have uncovered previously unobserved ...

A new metasurface lets scientists flip between ultra-stable light vortices, paving the way for tougher, smarter wireless communication.
