| 'Groovy' hologram creates strange state of light Posted: 20 Aug 2013 10:50 AM PDT A new three-in-one optical element can control light's amplitude, phase, and polarization through a wedding of old-fashioned holograms and state-of-the-art nanoscale features. An unusual state of light, a radially polarized beam, which is important for microscopy and particle manipulation, has been created by sending conventional laser light through this holographic plate.  |
| Möbius strip ties liquid crystal in knots to produce tomorrow's materials and photonic devices Posted: 20 Aug 2013 06:44 AM PDT Scientists have shown how to tie knots in liquid crystals using a miniature Möbius strip made from silica particles.  |
| Neurologists report unique form of musical hallucinations Posted: 20 Aug 2013 06:44 AM PDT Neurologists report a unique case of a woman who hears music, as if a radio were playing in the back of her head. The case raises "intriguing questions regarding memory, forgetting and access to lost memories."  |
