Non-Chiral Material Generates Chiral Structures in Unexpected Turn

Research reveals that nonchiral systems can give rise to chiral structures with mirror-image configurations, opening up new possibilities for the engineering of these materials.

Teleporting Complex "Patterns" With Quantum Entanglement

Nature Communications today published research by an international team from Wits and ICFO- The Institute of Photonic Sciences, which demonstrates the teleportation-like transport of "patterns" of light - this is the first approach that can transport images across a network without physically sending the image, and a crucial step towards realising a quantum network for high-dimensional entangled states.

Fractal Photonic AFTIs: A New Platform for High-Capacity Quantum Information Transmission

Anomalous Floquet topological insulator (AFTI) is a periodically driven topological insulator (TI), which has nonzero winding numbers to support topological edge modes, though its standard topological invariants like Chern numbers are zero.

Dusty Star-Forming Galaxy Emerges From Cosmic Veil

Initially emerging as a luminous blob through ground-based telescopes, this enigmatic entity vanished entirely in Hubble Space Telescope images. However, it has recently resurfaced as a faint yet discernible galaxy in a capture from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).
