Harvard engineers build chip that can twist and control light in real time

Researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have created a compact device that can actively control the "handedness" of light as it passes through it, also known as optical chirality. This is achieved by slightly rotating two specially engineered photonic crystal layers.
