Nanowerk June 10, 2021 An international team of researchers (Israel, Spain, France, USA – Kansas State University) shone pulses of light along the edge of a 2D material, producing in the material the hybrid sound-light waves. Not only were they able to record these waves, but they also found the pulses could spontaneously speed up and slow down. Surprisingly, the waves even split into two separate pulses, moving at different speeds. They developed a new technique to image the motion of light without disturbing it. According to the researchers having access to the full spatiotemporal dynamics of 2D wave packets […]
