The best candidate for next-generation magnetic devices -- technology that can power, store, sense or transport information -- may be, counterintuitively, antiferromagnets. Today, most widely used ...

Scientists have taken the first step toward developing antiferromagnetic technology. They detected a liquid-crystal phase that may change the game for spintronic devices. (Nanowerk News) The best ...

Abstract: This letter presents for the first time an innovative waveguide structure, the multigap-waveguide (MGWG), utilizing liquid crystal (LC) technology to develop a continuously tunable phase ...

While some of the world's biggest tech companies including Meta, Google and (reportedly) Apple are eyeing the future of smart glasses, startups are working on a significant innovation for the other ...

Finnish eyewear company IXI is gearing up to launch smart glasses that look just like ordinary spectacles, but are able to “autofocus” based on the perceived needs of the wearer. The glasses contain ...

Abstract: We proposed a DHM system with improved spatial resolution compared with that of the polarized camera-based DHM system by employing a liquid crystal phase modulator (LCPM). The LCPM-based ...

High school science misses a lot of the science researchers actually work with. For example, you learn that there are three states of matter—solid, liquid, and gas—but in advanced physics, things get ...

The main innovation is liquid-crystal technology, known for its low power consumption and wide use in modern gadgets such as smartphone displays, digital watches, calculators, and LCD TVs. In IXI’s ...
