University of Cambridge: Liquid Light Switch

Researchers at the University of Cambridge announced a miniature electro-optical switch with the potential for more energy-efficient signal processing. The switch can change the spin – or angular momentum – of a liquid form of light by applying electric fields to a semiconductor device a millionth of a metre in size. The project, which was conducted at the Cambridge NanoPhotonics Centre with funding from the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences...
