A Moebius strip created from laser light opens up new possibilities for material processing and for micro- and nanotechnology. Physics sometimes borders on light art. An international team headed by ...

In their experiment, to produce these Möbius strips, the researchers use a specific, rather exotic, type of light beam: a tightly focused laser beam that they refer to as structured light. Structured ...

New research presents a strategy for observing and manipulating the optical Berry phase in Möbius ring microcavities. In their paper, the authors discuss how an optical Berry phase can be generated ...

University of Warwick scientists have shown how to tie knots in liquid crystals using a miniature Möbius strip made from silica particles. By tying substances like this in knots, the researchers hope ...

A Möbius strip can irritate our perception. At first sight, the strip has two sides and two edges just like a normal ring made from a strip of paper, for example. If you follow one side or one edge ...
