Perhaps one of the most famous experiments in physics has been giving us the wrong message all these years. For nearly two centuries, the double-slit experiment has been providing a direct visual ...

Classical physics theories suggest that when two or more electromagnetic waves interfere destructively (i.e., with their electric fields canceling each other out), they cannot interact with matter. In ...

A new research study from Opto-Electronic Advances discusses tailoring electron vortex beams with customizable intensity patterns by electron diffraction holography. In recent years, the scientific ...
