"Revolutionary Quasiparticles: Unlocking Faster-Than-Light Potential for Compact Light Sources"

Originally Published 2 years ago — by The Debrief

Quasiparticles, which behave like single entities, have been found to exhibit properties that seemingly defy the laws of physics, including traveling faster than the speed of light. Harnessing these properties could lead to the development of powerful and compact light sources, revolutionizing industries such as medical imaging, nuclear physics, and semiconductor manufacturing. The collective movement of quasiparticles can create effects similar to faster-than-light travel, although no individual particle exceeds the speed of light. This discovery could democratize access to powerful light sources and enable significant scientific and technological advancements.

"Revolutionizing Synthesis: Unveiling the Power of Luminous Molecules"

Originally Published 2 years ago — by SciTechDaily

Chemists at the University of Basel have developed a new synthesis method for creating chiral helicenes, which are crucial for the advancement of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). By controlling the three-dimensional structure of these compounds, the researchers have paved the way for improved light sources. The team utilized a C-H activation reaction to create helicenes with the desired chirality, demonstrating the potential of this strategy for synthesizing complex functional molecules. The synthesized products strongly absorb and emit circularly polarized light, an important characteristic for the development of new materials in OLEDs.
