(Nanowerk News) Unlike electrons, particles of light are uncharged, so they do not respond to magnetic fields. Despite this, researchers have now experimentally made light effectively “feel” a ...
New research shows that light’s magnetic field is far more influential than scientists once believed. The team found that this magnetic component significantly affects how light rotates as it passes ...

Light’s hidden magnetic power may lead to faster, more precise optical devices, study finds
A new Israeli study suggests that light can directly influence materials in a magnetic field in ways scientists had long overlooked, a finding that could affect technologies from fiber-optic ...
The potential of quantum technology is huge but is today largely limited to the extremely cold environments of laboratories. Now, researchers have succeeded in demonstrating for the very first time ...
In 1845, Michael Faraday discovered what’s known today as the Faraday Effect—which describes how light and electromagnetism are related. A new study revealed that the magnetic component of light ...
New observation could provide way to increase the strength of interaction between light and matter, eventually leading to smaller lasers and other improved photonic technologies UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — ...
