LiFi research to revolutionise data downloads
A new form of high speed wireless internet, which uses the lights in homes and offices to transmit data, could revolutionise the way we download and upload information in the future. Researchers from Northumbria University, Newcastle and University College London...
Coherently driven microcavity-polaritons and the question of superfluidity
If particles of light (photons) are trapped in a two dimensional cavity, then they can couple electron-hole pairs present in semiconductors in the cavity. The resultant composite particles, which we call polaritons, flow like fluids do and can exhibit quantum...
