It's long been known that the quantum Hall effect impacts electrons in strong magnetic fields, but it turns out light also ...

Physicists have recreated the Nobel Prize–winning quantum Hall effect using light, revealing that photons can follow the same strange quantum rules once thought exclusive to electrons.

Physicists at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg have identified a hidden geometric structure reaching 48 ...

Physicists have for the first time observed light drifting sideways in discrete, quantized steps, reproducing a quantum Hall ...

In physics, the classical "Hall effect," discovered in the late 19th century, describes how a transverse voltage is generated when an electric current is exposed to a perpendicular magnetic field.

Scientists have pulled off a feat long considered out of reach: getting light to mimic the famous quantum Hall effect. In their experiment, photons drift sideways in perfectly defined, quantized steps ...
