Researchers at MIT have successfully induced a durable magnetic state in an antiferromagnetic material using terahertz light.

MIT physicists have discovered a new magnetic state in an antiferromagnetic material using terahertz light, opening doors to ...

A new technique involving terahertz light has enabled the creation of chiral states in non-chiral materials, offering ...

Chirality is the property of an object that makes it different from its mirror image, like our left and right hands. In ...

Chirality refers to objects that cannot be superimposed onto their mirror images through any combination of rotations or ...

Physicists in the US, Europe and Korea have produced a long-lasting light-driven magnetic state in an antiferromagnetic material for the first time. While their project started out as a fundamental ...

Terahertz (THz) waves, situated between the microwave and infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, have drawn ...

Terahertz light has the ability to control solids at the atomic level, forming chiral structures of left- and right-handedness. Chirality refers to objects that cannot be superimposed to their ...

The research team, led by Andrea Cavalleri, used terahertz light to lift this balance in the non-chiral material boron phosphate (BPO 4), in this way inducing finite chirality on an ultrafast time ...

Chirality refers to objects that cannot be superimposed to their mirror images through any combination of rotations or translations, much like the ...

Researchers at the MPI for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) and the University of Oxford have shown that terahertz light can induce chirality in a non-chiral crystal, allowing either ...
