Metamaterials Trap Light in a Magnet Could Lead to Optically Controlled Computer Memory
by Brian Wang from NextBigFuture.com on (#6DZ49)
Vinod M. Menon and his research group at The City College of New York shows that trapping light inside magnetic materials may dramatically enhance their intrinsic properties. Strong optical responses of magnets are important for the development of magnetic lasers and magneto-optical memory devices, as well as for emerging quantum transduction applications. The properties of ...
