The bright plumage of birds is often a feast for the eyes, but scientists have struggled to recreate the photonic nanostructures that generate those colors in the lab. Scientists have developed a method to efficiently engineer these intricate nanostructures through a form of phase separation.
A new method of producing an ultra-bright light which breaks traditional laws of particle physics could potentially spark a technological revolution. The ultra-bright light, a form of ‘coherent light’, is created by particles moving in synchrony rather than independently.
