Light has always been the ultimate tool for etching information into silicon, but a new class of materials that can bend and reshape that light at will is starting to look like the missing ingredient ...

Researchers used X-ray microscopy to discover a ferroelectric material that tailors its response to controlled ultrafast external stimuli, such as light pulses. The material might be applicable to ...

Materials scientists at Rice University and collaborators have developed a material that uses light to break down a range of pollutants in water, including per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS ...
