Magic-angle laser
Magic-angle laser schematic: Light localization is realized by mode coupling between two twisted layers of graphene-like photonic crystals. Without any fine tuning, a simple twist can result in magic-angle laser nanocavities with high quality factor and small mode volume. (Courtesy: Ren-Min Ma)
A team of researchers from Peking University in China has fabricated an optical analogue of “magic
