It is based on Birefringence, the ability of substances to change the polarization state of light. With this method, doctors around the world can easily, rapidly and reliably detect malaria, Ebola ...

The birefringence-related phase-matching effect dominates the formation of the chirp-free soliton, and hence it is termed as birefringence-managed soliton.

Birefringence, or double refraction, is the difference in the refractive index of light along two perpendicular directions in a material. The phenomenon is commonly observed in some crystals.

This birefringence method can only be applied to the group Heliolithae (excluding some of the coccoliths produced in the Family Coccolithaceae). For Coccolithaceae and some Ortholithae an estimate of ...

Vacuum birefringence matter *It's a zone of virtual particles that's big enough to see from 400 light years away.

Vacuum birefringence "can be detected only in the presence of enormously strong magnetic fields, such as those around neutron stars," study co-author Roberto Turolla, a scientist at the University ...
