"Pseudogravity: Crystal Manipulates Light, Mimicking Black Holes"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by ScienceAlert
Scientists have successfully manipulated photonic crystals to create a pseudogravity effect, bending light similar to how it would be affected by a gravitational field. By distorting the crystal's structure, the researchers were able to alter the path of light, potentially opening up new possibilities for optics and communications technology. The findings also have implications for the study of gravity and could contribute to the field of graviton physics.
