Non-Bravais lattices were created by introducing a second non-equivalent lattice point. Near-infrared light is confined within a nanodisk periodic structure with controlled bound states in the ...

Kyoto, Japan -- A novel light-manipulating technology has been developed by an international team, including Kyoto University, that can be applied to lasers, sensors, and nonlinear optics. The ...

Structural properties lie at the heart of condensed matter physics, where the periodic arrangement and detailed bonding of atoms dictate the macroscopic behaviours of materials. Over the past decades, ...
