Researchers from ITMO University are the first to demonstrate that twisted electrons – particles that not only orbit but also create a sort of quantum vortex in accelerators – can reach immense speeds without losing their quantum properties.

Researchers at ITMO have found a way to manipulate light in integral photonic waveguides using laser pulses. Unlike its counterparts, this particular method is thousands of times faster and done fully optically, without mechanical or electrical input.

Scientists from ITMO University have become the first team to create a nonconductive structure that makes it possible to control light in a 3D space without losses, even when the material has defects.

A team of researchers from ITMO, Skoltech, and Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) have developed a new technology for photothermal cancer immunotherapy that can control a tumor’s immune response with high precision.

Researchers at ITMO’s Faculty of Physics developed the first-ever all-optically switchable platform that uses a laser beam, not electricity, to turn LEDs on and off.

A group of researchers from ITMO University and the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research have proposed a theoretical method to determine the degree of twist and its direction in electron and ion beams.
