The comparison of simulations and experimental plots in the case of selective valley excitation of the K1' state. Black arrows marking the propagation direction and dashed triangular lines demarcating ...

Topological spin textures, spatially organized patterns linked to the intrinsic angular momentum of particles, have proved to be highly advantageous for the development of spintronics and quantum ...

A collaborative research team has identified the world's first multiple Majorana zero modes (MZMs) in a single vortex of the superconducting topological crystalline insulator SnTe and exploited ...

The knots in your shoelaces are familiar, but can you imagine knots made from light, water, or from the structured fluids that make LCD screens shine? They exist, and in a new Nature Physics study, ...

Air cannons produce visible vortex rings by generating rotating air pressure differences, while electromagnetic cannons emit electromagnetic vortex pulses using coaxial horn antennas. The ...

(Nanowerk News) Plasmonic vortex is an optical field distribution with topological features formed by interfering surface plasmons, which enriches the class of vortex phenomena in nature. Owing to ...

In physics, topological singularities are highly stable structures that occur on a very small scale. Thanks to their winding geometry, they are extremely resistant to change. This remarkable stability ...
