Examples of such materials are photonic crystals, which are periodic structures that affect the motion of light in much the same way as crystalline solids affect the flow of electrons. For disordered structures, random light scattering and interference can produce an effect called localization, in which a light wave becomes "stuck" in closed paths inside the material, bouncing back and forth in complex looping paths called "modes". Heat normally flows from hot to cold, but now physicists in Japan and Germany have shown that spin waves can reverse the flow. V1/2 denotes the half-wave voltage. Optical information processing of the future is associated with a new generation of compact nanoscale optical devices operating entirely with light. Ratio of photonic crystal microcavities,” Opt. Wave plates and linear polarizers are common optical elements that alter the polarization of light passing through them. Researchers have designed the first theoretical model that describes the occurrence of multiple solitary optical waves, referred to as dark photovoltaic spatial solitons. Coherent Optical Photons from Shock Waves in Crystals To our knowledge, this phenomenon represents a fundamentally new form of coherent optical radiation source that is distinct from lasers and free-electron lasers. The team fired microwaves at one end of a crystal, which instead of heating up, stayed cool. This effect can occur only if the structure of the material is anisotropic, so that the material's optical properties are not the same in all directions.

Transmission of an electro-optic device as a function of applied voltage. This Demonstration shows the effect of the optical element on the polarization of light. The baseline time span for this database is (publication years) 1998-June 30, 2008 from the third bimonthly update (a 10-year + 6-month period). Describes how laser radiation propagates in natural and artificial materials and how the state of radiation can be controlled and manipulated (phase intensity, polarization) by various means.
