When a calcite crystal is placed onto a printed page, the letters appear doubled. This is the result of a property called birefringence. A new material that is among the most birefringent solids ever ...

Birefringent materials, which generate interference colors by modulating the phase retardation of polarized light, have found widespread applications ...

Researchers have designed a metasurface that can be continuously tuned from linear to elliptical birefringence, opening up the entire space of polarization control with just one device. This single ...

This news release is available in German. Nothing could be simpler: a drop of blood is placed on a special carrier substance; after a wait of a few minutes, the slide is placed on a device that emits ...

Long-wave infrared birefringent crystals are essential materials in infrared optical applications in fields such as infrared imaging, laser technology, and optical communications. Due to limitations ...
