For decades, astronomers have been puzzled by strange “zebra stripe” patterns in radio waves from the Crab Pulsar — bright bands separated by complete darkness. Now, new research suggests the answer ...

The basics of digital logic are pretty easy to master, and figuring out how the ones and zeroes flow through various kinds of gates is often an interesting exercise. Taking things down a level and ...

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

Researchers at Korea University, Seoul, have developed a new all-optical method for driving multiple highly dense nanolaser arrays. The approach could enable chip-based optical communication links ...

Tokyo, Japan – 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, ...
