Physicists Discover New Coupling Mechanism in Quantum Materials

Edoardo Baldini and his colleagues discovered a new way to detect and control exotic quantum phases in ferroaxial materials with light.

An illustration shows a white beam of light bending like a corkscrew as it interacts wtih a layer of atoms arranged in star shapes. Half of the stars are red and half are blue.
