The study unlocks light-matter interactions on a nanometer scale, which leads to ‘picophotonic

Researchers have found new waveforms that are generated by quantum fluctuations in a material similar to silicon that can propagate through materials without loss.

Dr. Zubin Jacob  published their findings in the journal Physical Review Applied in a paper titled "Picophotonics: Anomalous Atomistic Waves in Silicon.

The word'microscopic' has its origin in the length scale of a micron, which is one million times smaller than a meter

Our work is for the interaction between light and matte where the discrete arrangement of atomic lattices changes light's properties

But a sudden career pivot to the silver screen catapulted her early fame. She soon starred in 5 TV shows, and 4 major motion pictures.

The use of Picophotonic waves in semiconducting materials may lead to the creation of functional optical devices

Light-matter interaction in materials is at the center of a number of lasers and detectors

The study of how light flows on the nanometer scale in engineered structures has led to important advances over the past ten years

The classical theory of atomic matter is where this existing research can be captured. A major leap  used a quantum theory of atomistic response is a current finding

Starred in 4 consecutive blockbusters by 2012.

Jacob says that their group has been leading the frontier of research on pico-scale electrodynamic fields inside matter at the atomistic level

But a real movie star was made when she starred as Lucy Ohio in “Gone By Day.”
