The goal of the current project is to open a new field of research by realizing the first diffraction experiments of atomic matter waves through crystalline 2D membranes like graphene. Such ...

A unique propagation phenomenon of acoustic waves has been discovered, paving the way for developing advanced communication technologies using acoustic devices.

The waves always 'spread' to some extent into the area beyond the gap. This is diffraction - the spreading out of waves when they go through a gap, or past the edge of a barrier. The extent of the ...

Scientists have unlocked a previously unseen behavior of acoustic waves, opening up new possibilities for cutting-edge ...

The emergence of imaging schemes capable of overcoming Abbe's diffraction barrier is revolutionizing optical microscopy. In 1873, the German physicist Ernst Abbe realized that the resolution of ...

The discovery of asymmetric diffraction in acoustic waves opens new avenues for innovative communication devices, impacting ...

New diffraction phenomenon of acoustic waves. A novel asymmetric diffraction has been achieved using a nano-patterned array of ferromagnets. This demonstration arises from a unique interaction ...

Shock waves, ion irradiation tracks ... layer of Si has a different orientation from the much thicker handle; the diffraction of interest would be in the shape of the 111 or 220 Bragg peak ...

The magnetic nanoscale array can be thought of as a specialized grating that the waves go through. To their surprise, instead of the typical symmetric diffraction pattern, the research team ...

or sea waves entering a narrow harbor. Electron diffraction was revolutionary not just for fundamental physics, but led to the development of cutting-edge technology such as the electron microscope.
